Can You Recognize Counterfeit Faith? - Bernard W Schnippert - October 1982

Bernard W Schnippert

Many people miss out on the blessings of faith simply because they think they have faith when they really don't. What about you? Could you be fooling yourself about your faith? Physically tired and spiritually exhausted, another minister and I sat in a coffee shop, sipping pensively on cups of Sanka and rehearsing the last two hours. We couldn't believe what had just almost happened. We, two ministers of the Worldwide Church of God, had just visited a severely depressed woman and her husband (both "members"), and had come within an inch of being physically thrown out of the house! Why? Simply because we saw that the woman probably lacked the faith necessary to be healed of a serious tumor she had growing in her body, and we had, in love and tact, told her so. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
