Men with corrupt hearts seek after power and they take no delight in the wisdom of God.
An evil and an adulterous generation seeks a sign but no sign shall be given to them, but the sign of Jonas.

A Christian who constantly seek after signs and wonders is doing so in a vain attempt to shore up his own weak faith; but a faith that is not founded on wisdom will not stand.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God expressed by the Holy Spirit.

Faith based on the foundation of wisdom imputed to a man by God's Holy Spirit will withstand the fiery test of tribulation and will always be triumphant in victory.

Faith is a fruit of the Spirit and not the result of adherence to religious dogmas and creeds.

Faith, true faith, is the victory that overcomes the world.
