Abstract
In this paper the most important thought elements of Kierkegaard on faith discussion have been surveyed. According to Kierkegaard, the actual faith is subjective which is not comparable with any of experimental and intellectual categories. In abrahamen religions, instead of analyses based on the scientific scrutiny, the emphasis is on the subjective facts that cause the bloom of inner side of human. Although faith seems to be a paradox, it doesn't in fact rationalize the logic paradox, But it saves the exalted characteristic of religion to avoid from making the faith completely understandable. The faith is together with the human's liberty on the one side and the divine endowment on the other side. Love is the peak or the fruit of the faith.
