Galatians 1:23

the faith Three principal senses attach to this word in the N. T.:

(1) Truth, or truthfulness, trustworthiness; e.g. Romans 3:3, "the faith of God."

(2) Belief of, or confidence in a Person or thing. This is its most common meaning.

(3) The revelation of the character, will and purpose of God -who cannot lie" the only thing certain and permanent in a mutable and transitory world, and therefore worthy of hearty belief and implicit confidence. So here, the Gospel of Christ as taught and accepted by believers.
