| Jesus, being fully man and fully God, is the true hero of Faith.
As a man he was tired, hungry, angry, He cried, He loved and He was tempted. From this man we can learn how he lived out his faith - how he kept and deepened the relationship with God, the Father: - Jesus spends time alone with his Father (Contemplative) - Jesus does stuff for and with God (serving) - Jesus spends time worshipping! (worship) - Jesus spends time studying. (Intellectual) - Jesus spends time with people (relational)
As fully God he is the author and perfecter of our faith. Author: - Created in His image - Created us with a spirit - Re-creates us - Created us with Faith being an essential part of the human fabric - Created us capable of interaction with God - Called us into faith
Perfecter - Challenges you - Stretches you - Acknowledges/Praises - Rebukes - Teaches - Sends
“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our Faith!” Hebr 12.2
