Subject: What did Jesus mean by this |
Bible Note: Too Fuzzy Ken? Too simple maybe. "If they could have had that kind of faith on their own they wouldn't need Jesus.They would be their own Gods". I can't accept your premise Ken. The only proper object of TRUE faith is God. Let's not confuse spiritual faith in God with carnal faith in idols or self-confidence in one's own ability. Afterall, we are speaking of believers (excepting Judas) in this instance. "Thy will be done". And so it shall. John |
