Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality - faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]. (Hebrews 11:1 Amplified Bible)
The Bible defines faith as confidence and conviction of things hoped for but not seen.
In today's world, in every good there is evil and in every evil there is good. Men are aware of this fact. Many human religions and philosophies arose to explain this fact. Taoism has this yin (negative) yang (positive) symbol, where in the extreme yin, there is a bit of yang, and in the extreme yang, there is a bit of yin.
But the Bible tell us that in future, good and evil will be separated. Since this is not the reality today, you need to have faith in the Word of God, to see beyond today's reality. God will sort this out at His second coming and good and evil will be separated.
"The farmer's workers went to him and said, 'Sir, the field where you planted that good seed is full of weeds! Where did they come from?' "'An enemy has done this!' the farmer exclaimed. "'Should we pull out the weeds?' they asked. "'No,' he replied, 'you'll uproot the wheat if you do. Let both grow together until the harvest. Then I will tell the harvesters to sort out the weeds, tie them into bundles, and burn them, and to put the wheat in the barn.'" (Matthew 13:27-30 NLT)
