You haven't proven that their faith was bigger, and therefore got better results than the ones who had just that grain of mustard seed.
There are lots of people in the Bible who had loved ones raised from the dead and other miracles who aren't listed as having a certain portion of faith. Neither do I believe that's what the scriptures above are saying, just that the faith they had was great....not as in a measurement.
Sister, faith most certainly does have some sort of measurement. Have you ever felt faith, like in a service? I have. It definitely occupies space. Anything that occupies space can be measured. Maybe it can't be measured by man, but I believe God can measure it.
The only Biblical measure is that of a mustard seed.
Having more faith than that doesn't get it done faster, better, or done at all.
And sure. I've had lots of faith, and I've had hardly any faith, but when results were seen, there's no difference in the outcome.

Great Faith is Biblical. You should look it up in your bible. If you don't trust God completely then don't, but you should learn to use some wisdom in talking about us who do trust God completely.
You are going to school and your wife works, is that correct?
Not sure how you can say you trust God completely if that's the case....according to your own words, that is.

There's a scripture that talks about "the" measure of faith. Brother OM has already posted another scripture that talks about "great" faith. You seem to be losing this part of the argument, Sister. Quit while you're ahead.

I don't care how much faith ones has, pain is pain, if your hurting bad enough you'll seek help, if your wise and smart. Sometimes the body requires medical intervening, nothing wrong with that or lack of ones faith. Pain is a way of saying something wrong !
When I was in labor epidural, I tried to go without but pain is pain it was to great, I think God for epidurals !
Kidney stones, morphine, again pain is pain.
CCI Thank God he took notice something was not right, he felt off, sure enough appendicitis, good thing he didn't shrug it off, thing is he could be 6ft under today instead he at home with his family as should be, thanks to medical help.
