Faith7.主之所以在福音书和启示录谈论信，是因为犹太人不相信祂是众先知所预言的弥赛亚这事是真的；凡不信真理的地方，就会谈论信。然而，拥有对主的信仰和相信是一回事，拥有对其他某个人的信仰和相信是另一回事。下面就解释这种区别。
7. The reason the Lord talked about faith in the Gospels and Revelation was that the Jews did not believe it was true that he was the Messiah foretold by the prophets; and wherever the truth is not believed, faith enters the discussion. Nevertheless, it is one thing to have faith and believe in the Lord and something else to have faith and believe someone else. We will get to that difference later.
7. "Faith" is the term used by the Lord in the Gospels and in the book of Revelation because the Jews did not believe it to be true that the Lord was the Messiah foretold by the prophets; and when truth is not believed, the term "faith" is used instead.

7. Quod fides dicatur a Domino apud Evangelistas et in Apocalypsi, erat quia Judaei non crediderunt verum esse, quod Dominus esset Messias a prophetis praedictus; et ubi veritas non creditur, ibi fides dicitur. At usque aliud est fidem habere et credere in Dominum, et aliud fidem habere et credere alicui: de differentia dicetur infra.
