Faith without need to request.

It seems that faith in Jesus is was heals people. Not people asking him the question of, can you heal me? However, the question is on the whole proved to be a reflection of their faith.

Rebuking X, means X = sin?

Unsure. Mark 4:29-40. Jesus rebuked wind & sea. Therefore, wind and sea are evil things? No. Because thinking about it, when Peter said something to Jesus, Jesus responding by rebuking Peter and saying stand behind me Satan. Wind and Sea were misbehaving/taunting/threatening disciples. And that is why they were rebuked. Right?

What happens when a `mountain` doesn`t move?

The natural verdict from reading Mark 11:22-24 is that the person praying has: 1. doubted , 2. not had sufficient belief that God would do the request. Dangerous! Especially if not read whilst looking at other parts of scripture, such as when Jesus said God doesn`t give people things that are bad for them, even if people ask for them. That underlines the power rests in God`s hand and not ours. God is not a genie giving us 3 wishes. He is the one we have a relationship with.
