'''Faith'''<ref>Etymology: a very early English term dating from 1200-50, based on the Middle English term "feith" (Anglo-French fed,  Old French feid, feit, Latin fidem, accusative of fidēs meaning trust, akin to fīdere meaning to trust).</ref> extends beyond belief to include [[confidence]] about something unseen, such as the achievement of [[God]]'s will.  Faith goes beyond [[materialism]] to include beneficial use of the underlying unseen reality. The existence of [[infinity]] implies the existence of the infinite power of faith. Jesus taught that a person with even a small amount of faith can move mountains (Matthew 17:20).
