Many Christians will claim that faith is the same as trust. Furthermore, many claim a nonbeliever has faith in science or his car is parked where he left it. This seems very problematic to me given the definition we find for faith is found in Hebrews 11:1; “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen”. In other words, your confidence IS the evidence offered for things that cannot be seen. Something intangible as the "confidence" one has in something, is the “evidence” for believing invisible things. Evidence is defined as: "the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid". In what sense can someone justify confidence to equate to evidence and in what court would that reasoning stand?
