Abstract

In this study, we evaIuated
belief, faith and doubt according to the psychology of religion. Firstly, we explained the differences
between belief and faith. Because, belief is a more static term, on the other hand faith is a much
more dynanıic term. Secondly, we studied "how does belief become faith?" and saw that some
influences are stimulating the growth of belief into faith. Finally, we discussed the relationship of
belief and faith with doubt. To sum up, we understood that belief is different from faith and that
belief and faith have a relation with doubt
