How do we know that faith is a battle?

Answered in 1 source

The experience of Christians reveals that faith involves a continuous struggle against sin, temptation, and spiritual foes.

Faith is described as a laborious endeavor in the life of a believer, as noted by Luther, who stated that faith is a 'laborious, difficult and powerful thing.' The Christian life is characterized by both fighting against destructive habits and fleeing from ungodliness. Faith, therefore, requires diligence and represents an ongoing battle. This concept aligns with Hebrews 11:6, where the diligent seeker of God is promised rewards, reflecting that faith is an active engagement with God’s truth amidst life's challenges.
