Believe, a "Who" Word

Pastor Curtis Atchley

July 26, 2026

Belief in the Bible is a "who" word, not a "what" word — it's about trusting a person, not having the right facts. Qohelet (Ecclesiastes) faces the meaninglessness of life and death, and his answer is to keep being faithful anyway. Job loses everything undeservedly, and even when God never explains why, God affirms that Job was right to keep wrestling with Him. Both stories show that trust isn't built on having God figured out — it's what remains when we can't. The takeaway: God isn't asking us for certainty, He's asking for trust.
