Uncovering the Mystery of Faith
Jesus is definitely revealing something about how to accomplish the "impossible." I would think, oh, if I only had this great faith of which He speaks! How do we find great faith?
A Most Extraordinary Event
Then this extraordinary thing occurred. Jesus violated the very laws of nature right before their eyes. Not to impress them, mind you, but from pure compassion from the Father for this broken man. Was there ever a man anything like this man? He breaks the laws of nature at His command?
How to Live in Obedience to God
We hear a lot about obedience in the churches. Obedience is, of course, an important thing. As God said, "I desire obedience rather than sacrifice" (1 Samuel 15:22). But what is real obedience?

Following Christ
"If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him" (John 12:26, NASB1995)
