Learn from this narrative —

I. THE OMNIPOTENCE OF TRUE FAITH IN GOD. It is not so much the amount of one's faith as the kind, and the fact that one really has it (Matthew 17:20).

II. THE POWERLESSNESS OF CHRISTIANS WITHOUT TRUE FAITH.

III. THE DISCREDITABLENESS OF CHRISTIAN INEFFICIENCY, LEADING TO QUESTIONINGS AND DISCUSSIONS THAT DO MORE HARM THAN GOOD.

IV. THE INEFFICIENCY OF CHRISTIANS THEIR OWN FAULT. In Christ they may be complete (Colossians 2:10).

V. THE DUTY OF EVER LIVING YEAR TO CHRIST, RELYING ON HIM ALWAYS AND EVERYWHERE.
