Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
Key words here are substance and evidence in defining the most important words in and to my entire existence. The KJV is the best since future translations water down "substance and evidence" to the weaker "assurance and conviction". I say weaker since the first two are born in the concrete world, whereas assurance ad conviction are from the unseen words. This is perfectly ok because the future is where we are going. But I am not there yet, and I strive for concrete words from the seen world first in order to break thru into the second. I wish my spirit had dwelled on this verse long ago. It is not mentioned a great deal in churches in my experience.
