Jesus says that the Mustard seed is the smallest seed that is planted. He also says that if you have a corresponding amount of faith, you should be able to tell (on one occasion) a Mulberry bush to uproot and enter the sea, or (on another occasion) a mountain to throw itself into the ocean. In other words, you should have great power at your disposal.
It is no good saying that no one would want to throw a mountain into the sea. This doesn't change the fact that Jesus says it is possible for someone with only a little faith.
If everything rides on how much faith you have (as many of you suggest), then how come no one does miracles of remotely such high calibre? Do you have some faith or not? It seems as though by Jesus' measurement, no one has any faith.
How would you answer this objection?
