ABOUT THIS BOOK "Faith and confession" is equivalent to the second section in the book "A disciple of Christ" Vol. 1, designed to give the believer a solid foundation and the basic tools for becoming a stable and fruitful disciple of Christ. Based on and coming from the Word of God, faith is the key to receiving salvation and living a victorious life with Jesus Christ while on this earth. This book will explain what faith is, how it grows, and how to be a good steward of your faith. It will also cover the law of faith and confession and the importance of controlling your tongue so that you can enjoy the blessing of a daily "good confession." Jesus is the "author and finisher of our faith" (Hebr 12:2) and He said: "all things are possible to him who believes" (Mar 9:23).
