Matt.17.20
"Because you're not yet taking God seriously," said Jesus. "The simple truth is that if you had a mere kernel of faith, a poppy seed, say, you would tell this mountain, "Move!' and it would move. There is nothing you wouldn't be able to tackle."

Matt.17.25
He answered, "His subjects." Jesus said, "Then the children get off free, right?
Matt.17.25
