"No."
A chance for you to manifest your scholarship
and knowledge, your command of reason and
logic...and the best you can come up with is "No".
The verse is quite clear; Hebrews 11:1,
"Now faith is
the assurance of things hoped for,
the conviction of things not seen." RSV
Your claim is unfounded and exclusive, an opinion
without merit.
> Things hoped for are not seen, so to say that faith
> is the assurance of things hoped for it's the same
> as saying it's the conviction of things not seen.
>
Again you put on display your own astonishing lack
of comprehension. The very author of Hebrews
rebuts your opinion. Had you bothered to read the
author's argument in chapter eleven you might have
discovered the futility of your position.
> So it turns out that what I said Scripture says is
> exactly what it says.
>
You said: "Conviction of things seen is not faith"
Your opinion is the epitome of an egocentric error of
denial, a blatant rejection of both Scripture and logic.
Unless and until you can demonstrate otherwise,
my argument stands.
