Question 7 - Oh, the Disciples of Christ were the unbelievers!

Matthew 17:18-20 NKJV - "And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour. Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not cast it out?" So Jesus said to them, "Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you."

Mark 9:28-29 NKJV - "And when He had come into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?" So He said to them, "This kind can come out by nothing but prayer and fasting.""

Answer:

                Why could the disciple of Christ not cast him out? Were the Disciples of Christ unbelievers?

                When the tempest came on the sea, the Disciples of Christ were afraid even they were near the Lord Christ, is it not the unbelief?

                The disciples were in training of the Lord Christ. As in Romans 12:12 and James 5:15, if the hope, patient and prayer, all are united as the one. No one can get anything from the proximity of the Lord. When the disciple of the Lord Christ changed as the Apostle by strengthening in the gospel service, prayer, and faith, there were uncountable deeds, which they achieved.

                So, if we want to get help from the proximity of the Lord, the hope, patience, and prayer must be united as the one. The hope, patience and prayer must be united as the one. The inner meaning in the words of the Lord informs us that it is not useful without prayer, good belief, and deficit in faith.
