Faith
Virtue as name
Faith is belief without proof—trust in something that cannot be demonstrated.
Religious faith means belief in God or spiritual truths: She lost her faith in college.
More broadly, faith is confidence in a person or thing: I have faith in your judgment.
To act in good faith is to deal honestly; bad faith suggests deception or insincerity.
To keep faith with someone is to honor a commitment.
The faithful are believers or loyal supporters.
