Let's make sure we define faith as believing in the Lord, where such belief is not merely academic (such as that possessed by the devils, who believe and tremble), but belief as in love and heartfelt admiration and respect for that wonderful Person (the Lord) and all His unique attributes.

And let us also remember what Francis Schaeffer said:

[color:"0000FF"]True Christian Faith rests on content. Its not a vague thing which takes the place of real understanding, nor is it the strength of belief which is of value. The true basis of faith is not the faith itself, but work which Christ finished on the cross. My believing is not the basis for being saved-the basis is the work of Christ. Christian faith is turned outward to an objective person; "believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved." Francis Schaeffer The God who is there[/color]

Peter

If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself. Augustine of Hippo
