From the onset, Apostle Scantlebury presents the tenets of his tome, by eloquently contrasting the two dimensions of faith: (1) where we use our faith to acquire and believe God for new things and victories in Him and (2) where we use that same faith to resist and battle against all odds that is thrown at us.
After defining the elements of faith, Apostle Michael empowers us with the tools to increase our faith: Our knowledge of God and the application of what we know. It is not enough to know what the Word of God says. What produces real faith is displayed when our actions match our belief.
Apostle Scantlebury gives us an accurate understanding of the benefits of our trials. Contrary to our westernized belief, faith and trials are mutually inclusive. We are encouraged to keep trusting God despite the opposition. Trusting God then becomes the substratum of having a pleasant relationship with Him.
