Mark 11:22-25
"Have faith in God," Jesus answered. "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."
Faith in God. It it a black and white, you do or your don't have it kind of thing? Isn't weak faith really the same thing as no faith at all? Or are there levels or layers of faith for different things? Saving faith, healing faith, the faith to move mountains. Can you have one without the other?
Obviously if I've put my faith in Jesus to save me, I believe He is God incarnate and can do all things. So, why are all the mountains still here? And how does this "believe that you have received" as if it's done before it's even asked thingy work? I guess people from the "Show Me State" aren't too good at the faith stuff either. Boy I still have a lot to learn about faith.
