Interim Senior Minister, Rev. Dr. Cameron Douglas’ message is, “The Question of Faith” based on Luke 17:5-10
Overview
There is a simple truth expressed in this Luke passage. Jesus’ disciples already have enough faith to do whatever needs to be done. You will remember, it only takes faith the size of a mustard seed to move mountains. That’s not much. The problem with Jesus’ disciples is not lack of faith, but lack of action. If they were doing what they ought to be doing as obedient servants of God, they would see the results they were seeking. Look at it this way, if they were being faithful, then they would be seeing miracles.
The same is true for us today. What we need to do is start doing what we know we ought to be doing and then watch our faith grow as a result of our faithfulness. Faith is a gift from God and not something we earn or deserve, but something given.
