What does Hebrews 11:6 say about pleasing God?
Hebrews 11:6 states that without faith it is impossible to please God. Faith is the only way of approach to Him; God is pleased when people believe His Word rather than doubt it. Doubt is Satan's tool, while belief is what God asks for.
Les explains that Hebrews 11:6 declares without faith it is impossible to please God, and that faith is the only way of approach. He contrasts doubt with belief, calling doubt Satan's big gun; when Satan gets a person to doubt or disbelieve the Word of God, he has that person right in his hip pocket. God asks us not to doubt but to believe. Many ecclesiastical leaders approach the Word with doubt, unable to believe it happened as God said, yet God is so pleased when we believe. Without faith, those who say they cannot believe have no fellowship with God.
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
