A sister recently said (as I talked about having faith the size of a mustard seed) that she didn’t believe faith is measurable. One either has faith or doesn’t. That threw me for a minute, but I circled back to that scripture that speaks of the size (in this case tiny) of a seed. Jesus told His disciples that they had little faith. What are your scholarly insights on this? — L.A.
No need for scholarly insight. At least nothing deep. The Bible does speak about measures of faith (Rom 12:3, though that passage seems to refer to our spiritual gifts).
Faith grows. The seed of the word is planted (Luke 8:11). It is fed and increases through the Word (Rom 12:17). So yes, you have faith or you don't. And if you do, that faith can grow.
