False-faith refers to having a strong belief that is not based on either sound doctrine, science, or common sense.
For instance, to take a promise made to a specific character in the Bible (say a promise made to Jeremiah) and simply assume that God has made that promise to you may constitute false-faith.
If you claim Jeremiah 29:10–14 for yourself, then you should also claim Hosea 1:1–3 for yourself.
On what sound basis do you pick and choose?
Also, to believe strongly that you can get the good things of this world from God if you just faithfully engage in certain religious acts — without having to work so hard, since you will be favoured supernaturally — is false-faith.
You can never take out hard work from the success equation.
As James 2:14–26 makes us understand: “Faith without works is dead!”
Many believers — especially Christians — suffer from this.
They believe strongly in what sounds spiritual… but which has no grounding in Scripture, practical effort, or divine instruction.
True faith takes responsibility.
False-faith avoids it.
Faith — for emphasis, true faith — is good. Without faith, development or progress would be impossible.
It was faith that kept Thomas Edison and his team trying up to some 10,000 different elements in order to discover the right element to make the incandescent bulb economically practicable.
It was faith that got me to learn hypertext markup language and several other software on my own, to be able to design and develop the seersapp.com website myself, after each of the three different professional web developers I hired in succession could not meet expectations — and I wasn’t in a position to hire or afford a suitably big firm for it.
And to go biblical – my Christian brethren should love this to bits –
By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.
By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age.
By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son — of whom it was said, “In Isaac your seed shall be called” — concluding that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead, from which he also received him in a figurative sense.
Faith is not just for wishing — it’s for working.
True faith moves. It creates. It pushes through. It builds. It transforms.
