Where does it say anything in "this verse I offered" that the faith to believe God comes from hearing God and not the church?

Once again, how are you so deaf and blind to this:

"How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?"
~ Romans 10:14


Satan hates Christ's Church, Garee, so why do you do his bidding? Do you resent that it was God Himself Who established His Church upon this earth to teach ALL nations?

I suggest you listen to the TEACHERS God has set in His Church and not lean unto your own understanding!

"And God hath set some in the Church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues." ~ 1 Corinthians 12:28

How much more deceived can YOU possibly be than to outright deny any man has taught you the things your spout here on this board? You have had MANY teachers throughout your years but they are not the ones God set in His Church to teach ALL nations!

God bless you
