Oh I’m glad I found you!! Your articles are just what I need. I’m working on faith—I recognize its importance in life—in absolutely everything— self, Self, others, nature, society, Gaia, Creator and and and. Tips please! 🙏
I wondered for years why The Secret’s recipe to manifest excluded God and suggested to make your requests to the “Universe”
In early 2023 I began using a very similar process that has always proven successful in manifesting to get answers to some big question that have had no rational explanations. Because knowledge is far more rewarding than money.
Matthew 17:20 is not exactly how you’ve recited. Yet somehow, I think you’ll be completely satisfied with my detailed explanation.
The KJV versions for Matthew 17:20 is the best for context and ease of extrapolation
“Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.”
The word “unbelief” is the clue to the definition of faith. And since a grain of mustard seed is incapable of possessing any thoughts, that leads us to the answer.
A grain of mustard seed is void of unbelief.
To be void of doubt (unbelief) is the equivalent of absolute certainty.
So, Jesus is saying; in order to rebuke a demon from a child you must have absolute certainty in the outcome. And then explains that moving a mountain is only possible by that definition of the word faith.
And that definition is buttressed in Mark 11:23
“For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.”
There is much more to this story but I’ll stop here
