How can a person truly have faith in another?

If you ever figure it out, let me know. I have no idea how to do it either. :P\n\nThough actually, I think it's myself I don't trust, as much as whatever guy's in the picture. I know that when I fall, I fall hard and end up doing really stupid stuff, so I try to fight it as long as possible.

People should put more faith in themselves and God.

It's all about faith. In fact, every religion requires faith. And when a person accepts Christ, God looks at "the faith." People aren't supposed to understand the mind of God. We weren't meant too.\n\nInstead, we're supposed to trust Him no matter what. For myself, I'd rather live for something worth dying for, rather than living for nothing at all. \n\nThough it may seem hard to believe something without physical evidence, a man must wait upon the Lord for renewed strength and a new vision to see the light.

I really understand this question. I just really don't know how to truly answer it.... In my understanding, you can't just believe what you want to believe. You don't sit there and think about it and just say "I will believe -this-" It doesn't work like that.... You just believe whatever. You can't make yourself believe something. It just comes natural.

No. Absolutely not. The fact that I have a strong faith is a personal decision. What anyone else chooses to believe in is entirely up to them, and I do respect that. I wouldn't be living the way my faith requires if I were to push it onto someone else. I respect their beliefs the same way that I would want someone to respect mine. (Lutheran)

Be an Optimist.\nTrust in God.\n"All things work together for good to them that love God".\n\n.

There is little advice anybody can give you.  You have to want to trust somebody and be able to do it on your own judgement and values.

Remember that there will always be people or messages that will challenge your beliefs.  If you believe God and in his only Son Jesus Christ in your heart, then nothing or no one can change that.  Don't let them doubt yourself, or even make you angry.  Try to show them how what you believe has affected you, but don't get in a fight.  Most of all, don't let anyone make you doubt your faith.

I think that people get caught up on one single aspect of their faith a lot of times.  This causes them to lose sight of their complete faith which can lead to misinterpretion or a lack of understanding of what their faith teaches and believes.  Homosexuality is a very good example.  I'm not saying that I believe its right, but you still have to step back and realize this person is still a person.  You also have to realize that you are not perfect either in some other way, and a lot of people forget that.

There are two reasons people defend their beliefs so strongly.  \n\n1) Fear of being wrong, and doubt in their own hearts.  Faith in God is truly that.... Faith.  If you are unsure about your own Faith, because we can not see him we have to believe that he exists.  A strong argument makes them feel more steadfast and sure about what is in there own hearts.\n\n2) The other is because they lack the verbal ability to truly communicate what they believe in a calm manner.  They want you to know the same joy of salvation and service but are unable to convey that.\n\nThe Bible says....... Always be ready to give an explanation for your hope to anyone who asks you, but do it with gentleness and reverence.  I Peter 3:15-16.

Of course it is. Whenever people see us living our beliefs and succeeding at it, they will respect us and our faith. Living faith is the greatest way to reach others. Want proof? Look at Martin Luther King Jr., Billy Graham, Ghandi, or the Dahli Lama. These are some of the people that have lived their faith and not shoved it down others throats. They are some of the most respected people of faith known. Try these on for size: Martin Luther, Mother Teresa, and Jesus Christ. It is easy to speak the words, but living it is the proof. Try it.

I am going to be completely serious with you\n\nPros: Truly believing in something is comforting, a built in support system of people who will be willing to help you, and the feeling that you are only living in a harsh and unfair world for a short period of time before you get to go to "heaven"\n\nCons: Limitations on what you can do of your own free will, Guilt, and of course people like Jerry Falwell

It isn't always easy to trust. Especially if you've been burned more than once.\n\nGet to know a person well. Trust them little by little. Trust them in small things first, and that will show you if they can be trusted with bigger things. Eventually you'll have a close circle of friends you know you can trust. \n\nRemember, not everyone is out to betray you, and not everyone lies. Hang in there!

Some people are more sincere than others. Before you trust their sincerity, you should take the time to get to know the person and understand their way of life before deciding what their level of sincerity might be. Be careful in venues such as this. Deception can run rampant. Likewise, there are wonderful people here that will be honest, helpful and sincere! Good luck........just be cautious while curious.

you cant because it is nonsense,\n\nthis is what i would say trust your self\n take desisions for your own life ,stand on your own two feet,look inward and learn to take responsibility for your own existance ,instead of of seeking support from other suyposed authorities like ,society ,or God ,or the Government.
