I will show thee my faith by my works. — James 2:15
“No matter how good the evidence … belief still requires faith. The story has been told of a high wire expert who walked over Niagara Falls. To the amazement of all, he walked a wheel barrow filled with 150 pounds of potatoes over the rope to the other side. His 120 pound assistant removed the bags of potatoes and placed her foot in the wheel barrow and he asked, ‘How many of you believe that I can place a human in the wheel barrow and walk that person safely to the other side?’ Everyone yelled, ‘We believe!’ He then said, ‘Who will volunteer to get into the wheel barrow?’ Believing the facts is one thing. Acting upon them is faith.”
