Hebrews 11:1

¹Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.

²For by it the elders obtained a good report.For by this, the elders obtained testimony.

³Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.
