Mainly becuase, I'm not so sure the apostles *faith* increased
until after the Holy Ghost was given.  I use the *mustard seed*
illustration to show that a *little* bit of faith goes a long, long,
long, long, long way.  One doesn't evidently need a wheelbarrow full
of faith to move that mountain.... just a mustard seed.  Of which,
we all probably have that very *seed* of faith.
