The Bible says without Faith, it is impossible to please God. There are few times that God used the word impossible in the Bible. This means you do not have the slightest chance of living a life that is pleasing unto God.

Thus, it's important that if anybody wants to live a life that is pleasing to God you must have faith.

The Bible tells us that even the patriarchs who have gone and left this earth obtained a good report, because while they were on the earth, they lived by faith and did things by faith. The scripture tells us that the just or the righteous man is the man that shall live by faith.

I do understand, that some people in their minds because of their concept of what faith is and the erroneous teachings they have heard on the subject of faith might have in their minds prejudice against the subject of faith.
