Faith is something personal, something you feel inside your self. By definition, faith means to believe that something exists without any proof. You cannot explain that. If you could explain faith, then it would not be faith...

In the same way that a mathematician believes that pi (3,14159...) or the square root of 2 exists (i.e. he has faith that it exists without being able to write down on paper all of its digits...), some people believe that a supernatural being exists. In the same way that a scientist has faith and believes that logic can answer everything, some people believe God exists.

How did people react to prophet habbukkuk's message?

What is faith? Why does God allow people to suffer? Why does God not punish the wicked immediately? About 605 B.C. God called a sensitive man to show His people God's purposes as the wicked Babylonians gained control of the world and made demands on Judah. Habakkuk used dialog with God and a hymn from the temple to show what faith is, why God would use such a wicked people as Babylon, and why God would let his people suffer. Habakkuk shows: a prophet can be perplexed at God's rule of history. God wants persistent commitment to and trust in him; and a psalm of confidence expresses faith in tumultuous times. Habakkuk is a call to faith for people who see no hope.

Who are the true people of god?

How was the people of god able to hang on to their faith throughout the times before Jesus birth during the old testament bc?

This is the short answer. Essentially by the power of God. We know that believing God by faith has always been the way to salvation. The book of Hebrews has a "faith" chapter, (Hebrews 11). These people believed God and their believing came to them by different means of what God had done or said to them. Romans 10:17, "So then, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God." People read or heard passages in the Old Testament which brought them to faith in God. Once God has given a person faith to believe in Him it is a permanent thing. They are held in God's hand forever. His power keeps us "hanging on".
