A dynamic reading of Paul's faith language, outlining its subtle nuances as belief, trust, and faithfulness.Faith language permeates the letters of Paul. Many today, reflecting centuries of interpretation, consider belief in Jesus to be a passive act. Yet, its exact meaning is not always clear.

In this important book, Nijay Gupta challenges common assumptions in the interpretation of Paul and calls for a reexamination of Paul's faith language. Paul's understanding of faith involves the transformation of one's perception of God and the world through Christ, relational dependence on Christ, as well as active loyalty to Christ.Pastors and scholars alike will benefit from this close examination of Paul's understanding and use of faith
