That is true only in a static situation. We live in a ongoing, live world where both happen all of the time. If you cannot see where faith is magnified by special happenings then you are missing a great deal.
If you would like me to change my comments to say that I beleive a miracle is a happening that confirms faith, then OK. But in the confirmation it also strengths and increases faith. It is true that faith preceeds the miracle, but it also follows and is stronger because of it. George ----- Original Message ----- From: "John W.
