Why is Samson considered a man of faith in the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Samson is recognized in Hebrews 11 as a man of faith despite his moral failures, illustrating God's grace.

Hebrews 11:32 includes Samson among the heroes of faith, highlighting that faith is a gift from God, bestowed through grace. Despite his moral failures and personal weaknesses, Samson was chosen by God and used as a judge over Israel, which is indicative of God's relentless grace toward His people. His story demonstrates that faith is not measured by human success or failure but by God's faithfulness to His covenant. This reinforces the Reformed view that believers are justified by faith alone and that salvation is secured by God's steadfast grace. Samson's life serves as a testament to the truth that God can work through imperfect vessels to fulfill divine purposes.
