power of the mustard seed

    Did you know that as far back as the Victorian age women wore necklaces that contained a mustard seed?
    it is true, infact they still make them today.

    It is a symbol of faith and is generally linked to this verse:
    " OH YE OF LITTLE FAITH"

    THE LORD SAID. " AMEN I SAY TO YOU,

    IF YOU HAVE FAITH

    THE SIZE OF A MUSTARD SEED,

    YOU WILL BE ABLE TO MOVE MOUNTAINS.

    NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU!"

    MATTHEW 17:20

    The power of a mustard seed :p

    I found some examples of mustard seed necklaces here if you want to see what they look like:

    you know, I have been thinking on it and maybe my distaste for mustard is due to the fact that I have a distaste for organised religion? being the anti christ and all :p

    hmmm I wonder...I bet they dont have mustard in Hell, so you all better start behaving :D

    But mustard is hot and fiery - they must have it in hell!

    If noting is impossible for someone with mustard-seedlike tiny faith, what's the point in having any more faith? It maxes out a bit too soon. God should rethink the system.

    Or, possibly, He was saying that MUSTARD IS ALL.

    Maybe Hell is made from mustard?

    If it is, I should misbehave more! Here's hoping they have sausages and bread rolls too...
