Question

What does 'faith is the substance of things hoped for' in Hebrews 11:1 mean?

Answer

I want to read just a little Scripture before I express that thought: Hebrews 11:1. Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen. Now, faith is the substance. Now, it isn’t just a—a makeup, or a thought, it’s a real substance. It’s something that’s just as real as any other sense of the body. There’s these five senses that control this body, and there’s two senses control the inward man. And that’s faith and unbelief for the inward man, see, taste, feel, smell, and hear for the outward man.
