Many people go thru life with out any thought as to how they are responding!

Notice the meaning of Righteousness wording, in 1913 - "The Quality or state of being righteous; holiness; purity; uprightness; or rectitude.{morally correct behavior or thinking; righteousness.} Stop and think about this virtue!

Then jump forward to 2010 meanings; " Acting in a just manner; doing what is right; virtuous, adhering to moral principles " - " Characterized by or proceeding from accepted standards of mortality or justice! "

Notice the first definition of the Quality or state of being (etc) ''' { in other words being in a positive state of being or condition! ) Then compare the second definition which uses " acting and characterized by " or in other words weakened state of moral or justice! Not the same - WHY?

Mainly because people do not love their neighbors!

Love your neighbor and have faith in the Lord God!

People can believe and disbelieve at the same time.

Most people don’t have this concept. They think if they have faith, then there won’t be any unbelief. And if they have any unbelief, then there isn’t any faith. That’s not what God’s Word teaches. People can have faith and unbelief at the same time.

Jesus told His disciples in Matthew 17:20 that the reason they couldn’t cast the demon out of the boy was because of their unbelief. He didn’t say it was because of their little faith
(as the New International Version renders that verse). Otherwise, His illustration that He goes on to give in that verse wouldn’t make sense. He said if their faith was as small as a mustard seed, they could cast a mountain into the sea with just their words.

A small amount of faith is sufficient to accomplish any miracle if it’s not negated, cancelled, or diluted by unbelief. Instead of just trying to build faith, we need to limit the amount of unbelief in our lives.

Love your neighbor and have faith in the Lord God!

People can believe and disbelieve at the same time.

Most people don’t have this concept.
A small amount of faith is sufficient to accomplish any miracle - notice ANY Miracle if it’s not negated!

Notice the meaning of Righteousness wording, in 1913 Stop and think about this virtue referring to true mortality or justice!

Take " Notice the first definition - 1913 of the Quality or state of being (etc) ''' { in other words being in a positive state of being or condition! )

Then compare the second definition which uses " acting and characterized by " or in other words weakened state of moral or justice! Not the same

- WHY?

Because people do not want to be tied to the truth or anything like holiness which would limit their actions or beliefs!
