[QUOTE="jenny1972, post: 68833211, member: 317127"] Mark 11:24: " Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. " In John 14:12-14 we find the same thing: " I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. " Jesus says, " [I]I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these[/I] " yet believers and those who have faith cannot walk on water or do any of the things that Jesus was able to do, so this is a promise that has not come to pass . And when Jesus says, "ask anything in my name, and I will do it," this also is not true. Jesus does not just say it once. He says the same thing several times ... In Matthew 7:7: "Ask, and it will be given to you." In Matthew 17:20: "Nothing will be impossible for you." In Matthew 21:21: "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." we can not do the things that Jesus did or greater things , and we cannot receive whatever we ask for in prayer . His deciples could not then and neither can believers today. so i was just wondering what people thought about these promises that have over time proven to be untrue . Also Jesus told His deciples that "[I]For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done. [FONT=Georgia]Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.[/FONT]" Matthew 16:27-28[/I] , suggesting it seems that Gods Kingdom would come in their lifetime (for some of them) , which also did not come to pass.
