What does the Bible say about how faith comes?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17).

According to Romans 10:17, faith is not something inherent within us, but it originates from hearing the Word of God. The Apostle Paul emphasizes that righteousness comes through faith rather than works; therefore, the declaration of the gospel is essential for the creation of faith in an individual’s heart. This process involves not just the external hearing of words but an internal understanding brought forth by God’s Spirit.
