On the other hand, saving faith is a gift that cannot be exercised by a spiritually dead person, someone who is corrupted in all aspects of their being. Such an individual lacks the knowledge of the object in which to place their trust. Through the regeneration of the Holy Spirit, they are spiritually revived and granted this knowledge. The spiritual faculties of their soul are awakened, enabling them to comprehend spiritual matters for the first time. When Christ, the object of faith, becomes real to them through divine revelation, they can exercise saving faith and wholeheartedly trust in Him. Faith is not measured or limited, as it is an agency that can grow through use. Even the faith of a mustard seed can be saving, as the essence of saving faith lies in the object of trust and not in the one exercising it. This is why it is said that someone with the faith of a mustard seed can move mountains. A person who exercises saving faith directs their focus solely on Christ as the object of their trust. All of their reliance is placed in Him, as they trust Him for every aspect of their life. Human faith is also employed to trust in illusions and false notions. So entangled are people's thoughts with trusting in these fallacies that their perception of truth is merely imagined. It is inherent in human nature to be sinfully self-conscious and place ourselves at the center of our trust. If we were to critically evaluate the concept of trust, we would question and investigate whether the object or person we are relying on is trustworthy. This mental process would constitute the exercise of human faith. Every idea that enters our minds must either be accepted as true, rejected as false, or deemed incomprehensible. We then place our trust in the truth of that idea or act accordingly if it is false. Human faith is merely a form of trust in something or someone. However, for faith to truly exist, it must have an object. For instance, when we sit in a chair, we trust that the chair will support us and prevent us from falling. Trust is a fundamental aspect of our daily lives, but we often take it for granted, as our trust in various things grows over time as they prove themselves to be reliable. Consequently, we develop a habit of trust, wherein we no longer consciously consider our choices to trust in these things. An individual who exercises human faith ultimately places their trust solely in themselves. If their motives revolve around self-centeredness and sinful self-consciousness, their trust is exclusively in themselves. Similarly, if they trust in an idol, it is only in relation to their own pride and the achievements they can attain in pleasing their self-created deity. They construct a god they can trust in and establish a system of works that allows them to take pride in fulfilling its requirements.
