Faith
How can one increase in faith?
You must strive. A child does not know, in learning he obtains knowledge.
search for Truth.
There are three kinds of Faith: first, that which is from tradition and
birth. For example: a child is born of Muhammadan parents, he is a
Muhammadan. This faith is weak traditional faith: second, that which comes
from Knowledge, and is the faith of understanding. This is good, but there
is a better, the faith of practice. This is real faith.
We hear there is an invention, we believe it is good; then we come and see
it. We hear that there is wealth, we see it; we work hard for it, and
become rich ourselves and so help others. We know and we see the Light, we
go close to it, are warmed by it, and reflect its rays on others; this is
real faith, and thus we receive power to become the eternal sons of God.
