It may not be specifically defined in scripture, but can you give a reason why it wouldn't grow your faith?

If one exercises their faith and God is faithful in return, why would one's faith NOT grow?

Would you not think that the woman with the issue of blood's faith would not increase after she was healed? If faith is the belief in things not seen or not known, is it still just a belief when they are proven? The woman had faith that if she could just touch the hem of his garment she would be healed. Did she KNOW for sure that she would be healed? No, she simply had faith that she would be. Only afterwards was that faith confirmed.

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter
