Isaiah 30:12. When we ask how to trust someone, we really need to be asking how do we trust God. Every time we put our trust in man instead of God and His Word, we will be let down. In fact, when you are putting your trust in someone or something else, you are basically saying that you do not trust God. God as our creator tells us in His Word, the Bible, to trust Him. When we do not totally rely on Him, we are basically despising His Word. We are trusting in our own strength and diverting from God's purpose in our lives.

Psalms 62:10. The Bible gives us guidance on how to trust ourselves. The short answer is we need to trust God at all times and to be wary of relying too much on ourselves. The Bible tells us in Psalms 62:8, "Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah". Psalms 62:9 goes on to say that no matter what level of intelligence or skills we have, we as humans are about useless in obtaining our life's goals without God. God created us for a purpose and He is the only one that can guide us and enable us fulfill our purpose in life.

Psalms 118:8. The Bible has good advice on how to trust someone. The short answer is love people, but trust no one except God. If you think about it, trust is all centered on the likelihood that someone will fulfill a promise. Examples of promises are: "I will never lie to you", "I will always love you", "I will always be there for you". Most people when they make these promises have every intention of fulfilling these promises, but the problem is that they do not have absolute control over future events. For some people, they do fulfill most of their promises.

Micah 7:5. In human relationships, trust and love do not go together. This is evident from Department of Justice crime statistics where a large number of violent crimes are committed against love ones. For example, two-thirds of children under five are murdered by a close relative. 74 percent of women are robbed by someone they know. The Bible is clear; trust God and not man.

Proverbs 31:11. According to the Bible the marriage relationship is the only human relationship where you should both trust and love one another. Proverbs 31:11 says, "The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil". The Bible teach us to love one another, but only in Proverbs 31:11 does the Bible tell us to trust someone other than God. On reflection, it makes sense that we should love (have unmerited favor) other people, but not trust them.

It is easy to think that love and trust go together, but the Bible teach us not to trust man or the things of this world. The only one we should both love and trust is God. We can love our fellow man, but we should only put our total trust and faith in God. When we put our faith and trust in someone or something above God, we are wrong. We must trust God more than our closest love ones. Putting our trust in someone other than God will eventually put us to shame.

From a Christian perspective, the definition of trust means trusting God and not other things. Many people put their trust in wealth and the promises of wealth over God. Most people gamble and play the lottery because there is a promise of wealth if they win. By their actions, they have more hope on winning the lottery than hope in God that He will come through for them.

The definition of perfection includes "Completely suited for a particular purpose - accurately reproducing an original". This is how God desires for us to be perfect. He desires for us to exercise our faith in his promises by doing good works to become like Him. To reach perfect holiness it is key that we have a deep faith in God's promises: Jesus is our Savior, eternal life, and so on. The good works to exercise in our faith include any acts of love such as helping people, encouraging them, loving them unconditionally, and so on.

Hebrews 11:1. Jesus came on this earth to save us from Hell and eternal separation from God. Jesus showed us how to live. He showed us that mankind can defeat death, and He gave us the plan of salvation. All we have to do is believe in Him that Jesus is the one way to salvation. This is challenging for most of us because what Jesus has done defies our five senses. He performed miracles. He told us He was the son of God. He defeated death.

A key part of Christian faith is the belief in the actual resurrection of Jesus. A resurrection where Jesus was in human form and he was brought back from death to live forever. Jesus' resurrection proves to us in no certain terms that God has complete power over death. If you believe that the resurrection of Jesus actually occurred, then it follows that you believe in His promise that all humans can have victory over death. You will believe that Jesus is the one way and that you can have eternal life.
