I’m impressed that you’ve gotten that far into the Guide for the Perplexed. It’s an interesting idea. I’ll have to chew on it for a bit.

Faith comes by hearing.
What does faith hear?
Faith hears God’s loving voice, that is, the Word made flesh. The Word that is written on our hearts.
Love is the voice of God.
Faith is what hears His voice.
Love makes faith active.

From what I can hear, the Most Holy Scriptures yell or thunder that charity is the first and the greatest of God’s gifts to us.
Also, God’s Word is a word of charity or love. God is love and His Word is love.
There is also a relationship between love and faith.
As Jesus and St. Paul teach, love is the greatest and the first in this relationship.
As is clearly taught, faith comes by hearing.
Faith hears God’s Word, which is Love Incarnate. Love is God’s language.
Faith receives God’s Word of Love.
Faith accepts (consents, believes, assents) God’s Word of Love.
The faith that saves is the faith that has accepted God’s Word of Love.
The Most Holy Scriptures are crystal clear: God so LOVED the world that He sent His only begotten Son. It is God’s love that saves us through His Word.
As we all know, God’s love is poured into our hearts. The love by which we love God, self and neighbor is His love and not the love of that old self. We have a new heart with new love—His love!
We are now adopted children of God, COG. He is Our Father. He is going to make us grow in love. Yes, He will make us grow in His love.
We need not be afraid of become loving people. He will do all things in us.
To paraphrase: Love believes. Love is patient. Love endures all things. Love is polite. Love forgets how to do evil. Love forgives evil done to us. Love hopes. Love is successful. God’s love makes us perfect. Love is kind. Love is humble. Love loves the truth. Love is courageous. Love is chaste. Love is sober. Love is generous. Love is meek. Love does loving actions. Love is faithful to our spouse. Love is peace and peaceful. Love is the greatest. Love is first. Love is God’s salvation given to us. Love yells or thunders to us and announces God’s Word.
Faith accepts (assents or consents) God’s Word of Love.
Love is first, second and third (God, self and neighbor).
Love is the greatest.
Faith is fourth (or second). Faith is not the greatest. Love is first and greatest. God’s love saved us. Love uses faith, hope and everything else.
Also, God’s Word is a word of charity or love. God is love and His Word is love.
There is also a relationship between love and faith.

In the Christian traditions, faith comes by hearing.
Also, there is an interior person.
The interior person has ears.
It is with these ears we hear God’s voice of love.
From Origen’s book on the Song of Songs pp. 25-26
“The thing we want to demonstrate about these things is that the Divine Scriptures make use of homonyms; that is to say, they use identical terms for describing different things. And they even go so far as to call the members of the outer man by same names as the parts and dispositions of the inner man; and not only are the same terms employed, but the things themselves are compared with one another.”
II Corinthians 2: 14 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward [man] is renewed day by day (KJV).
Romans 7: 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: (KJV)
Ephesians 3: 16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; (KJV)
Origen believes that the inner man was created in the image and likeness of God.
Genesis 1: 27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them (KJV).
Origen believes that the outward man is explained in Genesis.
Genesis 2: 7 And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul (JKV).
Origen believes that the inner man has ears, eyes, mouth, nose, womb, heart, and many other parts. He believes that the outer man’s parts are named from or after the inner man’s parts.
Our physical heart is named after our inner heart or spiritual heart. “Blessed [are] the pure in heart: for they shall see God.”
Our physical ears are named after our inner ears or spiritual ears. “Hear, O Israel.”
Our physical eyes are named after our inner eyes or spiritual eyes. “Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember? “ (KJV)
Our physical thirst is named after our inner thirst. “Come to me all of you who are thirsty.” “Blessed (happy) are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.”
Again, from Origen’s book on the Song of Songs pp. 25-26
“The thing we want to demonstrate about these things is that the Divine Scriptures make use of homonyms; that is to say, they use identical terms for describing different things. And they even go so far as to call the members of the outer man by same names as the parts and dispositions of the inner man; and not only are the same terms employed, but the things themselves are compared with one another.”
