Which verse in the bible says that it is a sin to do / say something which cause one to doubt / lose faith?

Answer 1

Romans 14:21 to 23 comes to mind, which is just one scripture:

21 It is good neither to eat meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles or is offended or is made weak.[f] 22 Do you have faith?[g] Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves. 23 But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.

Answer 2

there isn't a verse that says that. If you look at the men and women in the Bible, a lot of them lost their faith and doubted God at times. But they didn't give up, they prayed and prayed some more. Romans 14: 22-23 says this "Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth. And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin." (King James Version) If you believe something is right or wrong in your own mind, and do the opposite that is a sin. Earlier in the same chapter of Romans 14 verses 12-14 the apostle Paul also talks about not putting obstacles in front of our brothers and sisters "So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean."
It isn't a sin to doubt, but it could be a sign that a person should spend more time everyday working on the relationship they have with God. And removing those things in the life that separate them from God. If you read about Abraham, the father of faith, he doubted God at times, and so did Job, good people to read about, and how they resolved their personal realtionships with God.

Answer 3

There is no such verse in the Bible. If your faith is strong enough then there will be no need to doubt or lose your faith if anyone says anything wrong.

Answer 4

I don't think there is one. I mean, the Bible itself tells you to Test ALL Spirits.. that right there should cause you to doubt. It's telling you to keep up your guard against Anything another tells you. (Wouldn't this include the Bible? It's what "Man" gave us). It's like those who say it's a sin to not believe in the Bible... but nowhere in the Bible does it say you have to believe in it.

Answer 5

Romans 14:20 Do not, for the sake of food, destroy the work of God. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for anyone to make another stumble by what he eats. 21 It is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble. 22 The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who has no reason to pass judgment on himself for what he approves. 23 But whoever has doubts is condemned if he eats, because the eating is not from faith. For whatever does not proceed from faith is sin.

1 Corinthians 8:8 Food will not commend us to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do. 9 But take care that this right of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak. 10 For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol's temple, will he not be encouraged, if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols? 11 And so by your knowledge this weak person is destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died. 12 Thus, sinning against your brothers and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. 13 Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

Answer 6

I think you may be referring to when Jesus said if you offend one of his little ones it is better to have a millstone hung around your neck and thrown into the sea. The little ones are young Christians not children. Matthew 18:6

Answer 7

Matthew 18:6 says if anyone causes any of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it is better for them to have a huge millstone around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

is this the one you mean????

Hope so!!!

Godbless. T.R.U.T.H xxx
