00:01:00.899 --> 00:01:03.920

00:01:28.099 --> 00:01:33.060
We<00:01:28.239><c> read</c><00:01:28.420><c> in</c><00:01:28.599><c> Romans</c><00:01:28.840><c> chapter</c><00:01:29.219><c> 10</c><00:01:29.560><c> and</c><00:01:29.739><c> verse</c><00:01:29.900><c> 17</c><00:01:30.439><c> that</c><00:01:30.620><c> it</c><00:01:30.799><c> comes</c><00:01:31.180><c> from</c><00:01:31.599><c> hearing</c><00:01:32.219><c> and</c>

00:01:43.459 --> 00:01:47.319
And<00:01:43.599><c> we're</c><00:01:43.760><c> told</c><00:01:44.000><c> in</c><00:01:44.239><c> Hebrews</c><00:01:44.459><c> chapter</c><00:01:44.799><c> 11</c><00:01:45.120><c> and</c><00:01:45.239><c> the</c><00:01:45.439><c> first</c><00:01:45.700><c> verse</c><00:01:46.000><c> that</c><00:01:46.459><c> faith</c><00:01:47.000><c> is</c>
