-Faith is seeing what really is, no matter how much it is veiled by systems of power.

-Faith is seeing and acting not according to that system of power (the flesh) and what it produces (Gal 5:19-21)

-Faith produces the Spirit (Gal 3:5).

-Faith sees and acts in new, not-yet-seen worlds (i.e,. the Spirit). See Hebrews 11, which was probably written by a colleague of Paul.

-Faith is active. It is a work (1 Thess 1:3; Gal 5:6).

-Faith fulfills and produces love (Gal 5:6).

-Faith produces the Spirit, which in turn produces fruit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Gal 5:22-23).

-There can be no real laws against what faith produces. Systems of power are powerless against it. (Galatians 5:23).
