Belief is a state or habit of mind which trust or confidence in someone or something.
can we believe without trust?
can we trust without faith?
Brothers and sister I submit to you, the problem of unbelief,
Is it the problem of an unfaithful heart?
or the problem of an unbelieving heart?
Whose fault is it when you can't believe in someone?
Is it yours for not believing? or that someone else's fault for being unbelievable?
Is it anyone's fault at all?
If you can answer all that and say that this one person is at fault, then let me submit to you that you are greatly mistaken.
Let's just say I believe that my brother would wake up and brush his teeth, trusting that he doesn't want to have smelly breath when he goes to school. The following morning he wakes up, doesn't brush his teeth and goes to school with stinky breath. The next following morning I expect him not to brush his teeth again? with the thought at the back of my mind that he forgot to brush his teeth the morning before of course I would think that he wouldn't brush his teeth the next morning. So, whose fault is it for my unbelief? mine with assuming? or his for not remembering to brush his teeth the morning before? I hope you would agree with me when I say, how can we tell? Do we really want to point someone out now?
OK let's just say its my fault for assuming, I shouldn't doubt my brothers ability to brush his teeth every morning, but he did prove his inability to do so by not doing it the morning before right?
OK then are you saying he is at fault for not proving his ability to brush his teeth in the morning?
no, If I were to say its his fault, then what happens if he forgot yesterday but remembers today?
Can I really predict that he is not going to brush his teeth the following morning?
So whose freaking fault is it?
No ones fault!!!!!!
the unbeliever is just as guilty as the person who the unbeliever does not believe in.
So Now what?
Is there redemption for the unbelievable person?
I don't know you tell me...
