What does the Bible say about the miracle of faith?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that faith is a miracle from God, given to sinners as a gift, enabling them to believe in Christ.

The Bible emphasizes that faith is not a human accomplishment but a miracle wrought by God. In John 6:28-29, Jesus states that the work of God is to believe on Him whom He has sent, underscoring that faith is a divine gift rather than a personal achievement. Just as God performed miraculous signs through Jesus, such as healing the sick and raising the dead, so too is the granting of faith a supernatural act of grace. It's not about human ability; rather, as expressed in Ephesians 2:8-9, 'For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.' Faith is a work of God in the hearts of chosen sinners, transforming them from unwilling rebels into willing believers.
