Sure. It's a good, workable definition of faith, especially when you consider its implications:
1. "faith is the substance" And it is the only substance you will ever have for "things hoped for" in many cases. In other words, you will not receive what you hoped for. But, technically, faith isn't really substance. It's only imaginary substance.
2. "the evidence" Ditto. It is the only evidence, in many cases. Things you don't see may never actually be seen. If your faith in something unseen is the only evidence, then you can decide to have that kind of faith in literally
anything! Heaven and hell, peace that passeth all understanding, leprechauns. Anything.
