"Of Course!"

"But he spake of the temple of his body. When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had said." (John 2:21-22 KJV)

  "But the Scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe." (Galatians 3:22 KJV)

  There is this age-old question: Which came first, the chicken, or the egg? Well, if you are going to be following the Holy Scriptures, the answer has been made quit clear: "And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth." (Genesis 1:21-22 KJV)

  So, could it be, we could ask the question, Which comes first, faith, or believing? It is really not all that unreal of a question; although I have had this debate with fellow believers several times in the past. The whole notion of blind faith, is pretty much based upon what you believe; but if you ask the blind man, as did the Jews, he would say: "And he answered and said: Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see." (John 9:25 KJV)

  Did this blind man need to be convinced that he was made to see? Believing that he could see was no problem at all, so the faith was not blind, in was based upon proof that something had happened in his life; something extraordinary and that could not be easily explained. Now the question needs to be made more about relationship and less about the mechanics; in other words, Does your faith in Jesus Christ help your belief? 

  Simply put, you can believe that the moon is made of cheese, but until you actually taste the surface of the moon, you will never know if what you believe is true or not...

"Taste and see that the LORD is good. Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!" (Psalm 34:8 NLT)
