Abstract

Lewis remarked that "The world does not consist of 100 per cent Christians and 100 per cent non-Christians." A particular understanding of Christian faith is indicated in this quote. Faith must be distinguished carefully from Christian belief--and is better linked with the pursuit of Godly purposes. The door is then opened to talk about the possibility of those without Christian beliefs nonetheless exercising 'implicit' Christian faith. Various objections are addressed in defending Lewis's general understanding of faith.
