Chappell, Pastor First Baptist Church, McHenry FAITH: FACT OR FANCY The concept of faith is too often that of believing the impossible or of accepting, without question, ideologies handed down from a super Being far removed from the place wHhere man lives. Very few see faith in God (Christianity) as a living experience. Too few understand that faith, to be of any value, must be built upon some known and proven facts. Without fact, there can be n<j faith. Faith must go a step beyond fact, but the foundation fact must be present before the step of faith can be taken. Fact is the springboard for faith. One springboard of fact needed in the Christian faith is that of the Resurrection. Jesus has said, "I will come again and receive you unto Myself". (John 14:3). "For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air..."(I Thessalonians 4:16-17). The Bible plainly teaches there will be a resurrection of the "just and the unjust." (Acts 24:15). We are to accept this on faith. But there is ample fact upon which to base this faith. Jesus Himself was resurrected from the dead. The Apostles asserted, "We all were witnesses" (Acts 2:32). Peter preached, "Him (Jesus Christ) God raised up the third day, and showed him openly. Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after He rose from the dead." (Acts 10:40-41). Another fact upon which to base our faith of a coming resurrection was a special resurrection of some chosen believers at the time of Jesus' resurrection. Not only did Jesus come forth from the grave but "many bodies of the saints which slept arose and came out of the graves after His resurrection" (Matthew 27(52-53). There was some question among the Corinthian Christians as to the fact upon which they could base their faith in the coming resurrection. The Apostle Paul, not one of the original Apostles who had personally seen the risen Lord during his forty days of resurrected appearances, assured them he had checked it all out. "...He (Jesus Christ) appeared to above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto the present (are still alive at the time of his writing), but some have fallen asleep" I Corinthians 15:16). He encouraged his readers to "check it out." These are only a few of the recorded facts upon which one can base a solid faith that one day, all graves will be empty! It is not a lucky word, this impossible; no good comes of those that have it often in their mouth. -Thomas Carlyle.
