Rather than the OED I was going for a MUCH older definition, albeit translated somewhat more recently into English.
“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” ~ Hebrews 11:1
Gotcha, however, the OED also notes the ancient Greek ties to that word (among many others), which still matches with the use today. The reason I did not include it (or the many other language ties) in my comment was because it's not as immediately apparent because of the alphabet differences. The word "faith" in that Hebrews passage was substituted for the Greek pístis, which comes from peithó, and there are multiple shades of that word that mean things like "to be persuaded" or "to be convinced" or "to be trusted", etc. It is used a lot throughout the NT referring often to things that can be seen, like crowds or individuals.
