Subject: Why require faith to perform miracles? |
Bible Note: I'm glad your not offended as I made no attempt to offend. Hank's question was why did Jesus require faith of those whom He performed miracles. I was merely pointing out that Jesus did miracles to people who were dead and therefore could not exhibit faith in Him. Then Hank asked the relationship between faith to miracles. To this I responded that in some cases faith was required in others no. The bible displays it happening both ways. Do I see a relationship between faith and miracles? In some cases most certainly, in others no. That said let me also say without faith it is impossible to please God, and that my friend is my goal. It is not to see miracles, it is not to perform miracles, it is to please God. Let God be God. I don't put Him in a box or prescribe any formulas. I stand in awe of His tender mercies. That’s Ok, I'm not offended by what you wrote. God bless you also! Ed |
