Vos on Faith


"Faith and a desire for more faith frequently go hand in hand. The reason is that through faith we lay hold upon God, and in grasping the infinite object, the utter inadequacy of each single act of appropriation immediately reveals itself in the very act. It is the same in the Gospel: 'Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief' [Mark 9:24]." Geerhardus Vos, Biblical Theology p. 83

May we ever thirst for more faith until that day we see with our eyes and need faith no more.
