The Knights

There were once two men who claimed to know Jesus Christ. The first man was an accomplished college graduate who through the talent of a sharp mind was able to start a prominent business, a family, and acquire the social grace of elder in a Presbyterian Church. He lived happily (as he had everything) and was well respected within the spheres of business and Church. His life was filled with the good things. Because of this, his family never wanted. Also, he was a man of principle who sought to run the Church and it's affairs in a fashion that was decent and in order. He made it his point to study theology and think on the heavy matters that within the word of God, and he succeeded much to the happiness of his congregation.

The second man was less than half that fortunate. He was an impetuous, imbalanced man who seemed to have come to all knowledge as a result of personal failure mingled with a desperation before God to receive help and guidance. Day in and day our he went to serve tables to earn his wages - he happened to just be able to afford a one room apartment. No matter the terrible circumstances, he was able, every evening in the privacy of his home, to pour out his heart before his faithful God in prayer. Usually when he arose from his hour of prayer he had the strange, and unexplainable determination to continue to press forward despite feelings of depression and sadness over past failures that always haunted him. He looked to God for knowledge of personal sin and for redemption - always, he sought to please God with his time and work. He never married, never retired, and never had a visible position at the Church.

Which of these men had faith in God?
