Imani ya Uongo Dhidi ya Imani ya Kweli
Kuna imani aina nne ambazo si imani ya kweli: imani ya kichwa, imani ya hisia , imani 
iliyokufa na imani ya hali. 
1. “Imani ya kichwa” ni kukubaliana na kuanzisha dini na mambo ya kihistoria kuhusu
 Yesu. Yakobo alisema nini kuhusu “imani ya kichwa”? (Yakobo 2:19) 
______________________________________________________________________
2. Mapepo “yanaamini” katika Mungu lakini je, yameokoka? 
______________________________________________________________________
3. Tomaso anajulikana kwa “imani ya hisia”. Imani yake ilikuwa kwa msingi wa hisia
 tano za mwili. Kama hisia zake zilikubali basi angeamini. Tomaso alisema ni nini 
 kilistahili kufanyika ili aamini? (Yohana 20:25) 
______________________________________________________________________
4. Ni nani Yesu alisema atakumbukwa? (Yohana 20:29) 
______________________________________________________________________

SEHEMU YA PILI (2)7. “Imani iliyokufa” ni imani isioambatana na vitende. Je, “imani iliokufa” 
 isioambatana na vitendo yanaweza kumokoa mtu? (Yakobo 2:14)

______________________________________________________________________
9. Kulingana na Yakobo mwili bila roho ________________________ na imani 
 bila kazi ni ______________________. (Yakobo 2:26) 
10. “Imani ya hali” pia hujulikana kama imani isiodumu. Imani hii huamshwa wakati 
 mtu anajikuta kwenye hali ya kutatita. Mara tu matatizo yaishapo, imani ya hali 
 hupotea bila kujulikana ilikoenda. Mbona mbegu iliyopandwa changaraweni 
 haikudumu kwa muda? (Mathayo 13:20,21) 
______________________________________________________________________
11. Mbegu zilizoanguka mibani zilidumu kwa muda mfupi. Ni miba gani ilisababisha 
 neno kufa? (Mathayo 13:22)

12. Tumejifunza maandiko ya Bibilia kuhusu aina nne za imani. Imani ya kweli 
 haipatikani tu kwa kichwa. Haidhibitishwi na hisia. Ni lazima iwe kwa vitendo na
 ni lazima iwe ya kudumu. Imani hii lazima iwe ya ukweli, inafaa kutoka wapi?
