Romans 10:16-17

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Romans 10:16-17. But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

It does not ever come by seeing. Faith does not come by looking upon ceremonies - by gazing upon processions and pompous rituals. It come by the simple hearing of the Word. It is a matter of the understanding, and the work of the Holy Ghost upon that understanding. "Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God."
