**What is more Imortant than Faith?**
The answer is CHARITY.

1 Cor 13:13  And now abideth faith, hope, *charity, these three; but the
greatest of these is *charity.
1 Cor 14:1  Follow after *charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather
that ye may prophesy.

1 Tim 1:5  Now the end of the commandment is *charity out of a pure heart,
and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

1 Tim 4:12  Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the
believers, in word, in conversation, in *charity, in spirit, in faith, in
purity.

2 Tim 2:22  Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith,
*charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Titus 2:2  That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in
*charity, in patience.

1 Pet 4:8  And above all things have *fervent charity among yourselves: for
*charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

2 Pet 1:7  And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness
*charity.
2 Pet 1:8  For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye
shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus
Christ.
2 Pet 1:9  But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar
off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
2 Pet 1:10  Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your
calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never
fall:~~~~~~~~~

1 Cor 8:1  Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all
have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
1 Cor 8:2  And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth
nothing yet as he ought to know.
1 Cor 8:3  But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

1 Cor 13:1  Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have
not *charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
1 Cor 13:2  And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all
mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could
remove mountains, and have not *charity, I am nothing.
1 Cor 13:3  And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I
give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
1 Cor 13:4  *Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not;
*charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
1 Cor 13:5  Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not
easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
1 Cor 13:6  Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
1 Cor 13:7  Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things,
endureth all things.
1 Cor 13:8  *Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they
shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be
knowledge, it shall vanish away.

1 Cor 16:14  Let all your things be done with *charity.
Col 3:14  And above all these things put on *charity, which is the bond of
perfectness.

2 Th 1:3  We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is
meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the *charity of
every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;
2 Th 1:4  So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your
patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye
endure:
2 Th 1:5  Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that
ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:

ON ASKING Something From God*******

John 16:24  Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall
receive, that your joy may be full.

Would being Full of faith in God help us or cause us to have
Joy?______________________________________________________
Mat 7:7  Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock,
and it shall be opened unto you:
Mat 7:8  For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth;
and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Mat 7:9  Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he
give him a stone?
Mat 7:10  Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
Mat 7:11  If ye then, being evil, know how to give *good *gifts unto your
children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good
things to them that ask him?

Is Faith good? Is it a gift? 
Does God want us to ask him for everything we want or need?

James 4:6  But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the
proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

Coming to God , admitting our sins our failure is what God wants us to do.
Asking him for help is what we are supposed to do.
We are supposed to love one another and not speak evil of one another.

James 4:10  Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift
you up.
James 4:11  Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil
of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and
judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law,
but a judge.
James 4:12  There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who
art thou that judgest another?

1 John 5:16  If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death,
he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death.
There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
1 John 5:17  All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.

This says If I see my brother sin, I can ask God to give them life (to
forgive their sin) if it is not the sin which is unto death..(Blaspheming
the Holy GHost).
Rather than jusge and criticize if we think a brother or sister is wrong 
or has sinned  we should ask God to forgive them and give them life.

It is my prayer that God would open the understanding of those who want to
belittle someone for a humble request as asking God for something that will
help them to serve him and live for him in a better way (such as increasing
ones faith).
Her request was innocent enough, without malice.
But some of the remarks about her request show a need for Charity (in my
opinion)

By *this shall ALL men know that ye are my disciples.....
that ye  love one another.
