“A fé, o firme fundamento das coisas que se esperam e a prova das coisas que não se veem: a fé em tempos de covid-19

Abstract

In the last two years the world has lived in the terror of an overwhelming pandemic, which has taken the lives of many and left many in states of depression and sadness, but when we find life-giving faith in Jesus Christ, the son of God, we are able to continue on the walk. Here we present faith in the light of the Holy Scriptures, as well as faith in the times of a deadly pandemic that is COVID-19, which brought fear, shook families, left pain and longing in the hearts of many who lost loved ones and dear friends, as well as the shaken faith of many and the prejudice suffered by people who were infected by the virus. Faith is the basis of our walk, "without faith it is impossible to please God" (Heb: 11.6), and faith is what helps us in our walk, makes us go forward without fainting, always looking to the author and finisher of the faith, Jesus Christ, who died, rose again on the third day, was taken up to heaven, but will soon return to seek his church.
