What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by Georgry(op): 7:02am On Aug 05, 2018
Since the world "faith" and "hope " are used side - by - side and in ways that faith is built on hope, I believe they shouldn't have the same meaning.

Niralanders what is the difference between Faith and Hope?

Both are internal believes that that change the way we look at the World and how we act in it.
Re: What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by Nobody:
Faith is deeper. Hope sometimes depends on what is left..e.g after an accident that claims ur right hand, ppl say after all, you still have a left hand, when there's life, there's hope. But even a 4-day decaying body by faith will rise...in short dry bones can still live by faith.

Hope is an expectation that something will happen, faith is believing that it's already done

Faith is my neighbour... Hope lives in the next compound.. grin
Re: What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by PrincessB1(f):
Heb 11 vs 1a it says; now FAITH is the substance of things HOPED for.

Roman 5 vs 2-3 it says; therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into His grace in which we stand and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

They are closely related looking at the verses above .

HOPE makes one to expect something spectacular to happen while FAITH gives us the assurance of the accomplishment.
The realization of one's HOPE is obtained through FAITH.

In conclusion; If we do not have faith our hope is lost, because what we hoped for won't be accomplished.
Faith stamps it all.

Faith is God's gift to us which enables us to BELIEVE without doubt whatever God has revealed

while

Hope is total TRUST in God to give us eternal life and all the means necessary to obtain it.

absolutely wrong
Re: What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by Nobody: 9:36am On Aug 05, 2018
Faith is complete trust or confidence in someone or something, while hope is a feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen.

Hope is continues until something happens.
Re: What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by Nobody:
Hope and Faith is almost same. They work hand in hand. When you are expecting something to happen(like miracle, favour or breakthrough), its Hope. But you need Faith to believe it shall come to pass.
Re: What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by wordcat(m): 9:41am On Aug 05, 2018
Hope is an expectation that something positive will happen based on the work or effort one put towards that thing while faith is for lazy ones that puts everything in the hands of an imaginary helper that lives somewhere in the sky

Usually you hope (expect) that something will happen because you have faith (believe) that it will.

In short, hope and faith are complementary.
Re: What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by cyprex: 9:56am On Aug 05, 2018
Hope is an expectation which you may have whether or not you believe in God. These expectations are seemingly possible
Faith however is an expectation you have solely because you believe in God. But for faith in God, You ordinarily would consider such expectations to be most unseemingly.

Djinja:

Why this does not make sense is because it rules out those "waiting on God" as having faith; but in the actual fact, they do have faith, they are just waiting on God's time. "Now" is not always the best time, sometimes the future is.
Re: What Is The Difference Between Faith And Hope? by kalvoken(m): 9:58am On Aug 05, 2018
for you to hope, you already have faith in....

hope = expectation,

faith = strong belief

Faith is your believe in impossibles coming to pass while Hope is your believe in possibles coming to pass

Hope: I believe I will be rich tomorrow

Faith: I believe my dead husband will come back to life

Hope is like having something that ensures you of good result

Faith is total believe in what you believe in
