I'd think GOD would be more than just a little disappointed with you for not taking care of his child when left in your care. Prayer isn't supposed to replace medical attention.
But isn't faith suppose to? Faith conquered death, but not diabetes?
That seems a little unbalanced.
No, faith is being able to believe in something larger than yourself without being able to hold it in your hand or having a scientist telling you it's ok or not to do so. IMO
faith is a belief in something that can't be proven. it's kind of the next obsessive step after fantasy
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Faith by definition is believing in something that you know isn't true.
Put faith in one hand and crap in the other and see which gets full first.
That depends on what you believe. Something beyond the material world matters to many.
Faith has never been known to conquer death, even among the faithful. Nobody has ever been resurrected by his own faith or anyone else's. Faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains, but these people were right. They did not have enough to do the job. If their judgement is so poor about such a fundamental matter as how much faith they have, they should not have children in the home.
Better tell Jesus to put Lazarus back in the tomb.
Not to mention, Frosty the Snowman.
Acts of God are not faith.
Got that wrong. See the New Testament.
Faith is what MAN has, perhaps in God, perhaps in other things. And it will not revive the dead. When God does this, it is not faith.
