True Faith
True Faith is not blind, sweaty, hard work. Nor is it blind belief in something impossible.
It is instead a deep, deep knowledge that something is of God and that that something is true.
We are often told we should have more faith, as if our lack of faith was due to our laziness and lack of commitment. Such comments only point to a lack of understanding in the speaker.
True faith is a gift of God.
It is a revelation.
It is knowing something is real.
It has nothing to do with understanding how or why a thing is, it is an inner knowledge that something is. And it is that knowledge, given by God that is True Faith.

Some people maybe thinking of the term "True Faith" in the sense of there being one true Church. That is addressed in the article "The True Church." (See below)

The few articles below will give examples and help you, we hope, to ask and receive True Faith from God.
Revelation 10v7

But in the days of the voice of
the seventh angel, when he
shall begin to sound, the
mystery of God should be
finished, as he hath declared
to his servants the prophets.

The word Exodus is similar to Exit. It is all to do with getting out of somewhere.
The book of Exodus, the second book in the Bible, tells how the nation of Israel got out of slavery in Egypt; hence the book is called Exodus. But it is how it all happened that is fascinating, and prophetic.
The slave masters, the Egyptians, were having all sorts of difficulties as God’s plagues struck. The nation of Israel, although slaves, had an easier time of it. But the final plague would strike everyone; death!
God did offer a way out though. Kill a lamb on the evening, cook it, eat it, but mark the doorposts of their house with the lamb’s blood. The Angel of Death passing through the land would not strike any house where the lamb's blood was on display.
And that was prophetic. It was a picture, a type of what God Himself would do. God, as Jesus Christ, was the Lamb. Just as the sacrificial lamb had to be perfect so Jesus life was perfect and could be a sacrifice for all. They had to eat the sacrificial lamb; Jesus said unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you have no life in you. And, of course accepting the Jesus as your sacrifice means that you have eternal life; the angel of death passes over you.
Just as the Jews escaped slavery through the death of the lamb and started their journey to their Promised Land so salvation through accepting the Lord Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God is only the beginning of your journey as a Christian.
