It may be relevant here that in English there are two kinds of belief.
One is: intellectual assent to a proposition. "I believe that the world is round."
Another is: commitment to a principle. "I believe in equal rights for women."
We don't have equal rights for women. Currently they don't exist. But I believe in them. For many Christians, belief in Christ acts in this way, I think.
