What does the Bible say about faith and pleasing God?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible states that without faith, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6).

Hebrews 11:6 tells us, 'But without faith it is impossible to please Him.' This verse emphasizes that faith is fundamental to our relationship with God. It is not merely an intellectual assent but a trust and reliance on God and His promises. The Old Testament examples provided in Hebrews show how those who walked by faith—like Enoch—could please God because they truly believed in Him and sought a relationship based on that faith. Therefore, without faith in Jesus Christ, who fulfills all righteousness, no one can stand justified before God or live in a manner that pleases Him.
