The progress of faith

Matthew chapter 16 provides a scale of faith. Where are we along this scale?

1. Unbelief, Mt 16.1-4.
2. Little faith, Mt 16.5-12.
3. Faith in the revelation of the Father, Mt 16.13-20.
4. Faithfulness in following Jesus, Mt 16.21-28.

To be pleasing to God, we need to reach the last stage of faith.
