Faith is the assent of the soul to a truth. If you
want to know what advantage the soul gains from it, listen to what the Lord •
says:
'
Whoever hears my word and believes him who sent
me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death
to life.' [John 5:24]
How truly great is the goodness of God to the
human race!
The righteous in ancient times, in order to find
favor with God, had to struggle for many years. They achieved it after having
served God for long and with heroic efforts; Jesus grants it to us in an
instant.
It is true. If you believe that Jesus Christ is
Lord and that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Jesus on the
cross on Calvary welcomed the thief to Paradise. He will welcome you also.
