Effectual Personal Faith

THE words of men are often empty. Belief and faith are used in empty, meaningless ways many times. A general sort of belief in Christ is thought by many to be all that the Bible requires. But belief and faith according to the Bible must be effectual. "Belief on the Lord Jesus Christ" means effectual belief. "Faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ" means effectual faith. And effectual faith is always personal faith. It will not only accept Christ as Saviour of the world, but as a personal saviour from sin and sinning. Faith is nothing if it falls short of this.
