    In the context if the Bible, is the word 'believe' the same as "faith'?

    @Van Its very little difference. Faith is given in order to believe. Its right here Rom 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

    In the context if the Bible, is the word 'believe' the same as "faith'?

    You rejected the scripture that plainly says, faith is born of God. Born in the verse is perfect passive, so the birth occurred in the past once and for all, with results into the present 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world...
