Say the anti-Christ was against "Evolution", would you tolerate him 'more'?

Earthbound faith, is greater than purely Heavenly oriented faith.

But before you object, note also: that greatness is not the object of faith.

The Objective of Saving Faith:

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.
By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.
Hebrews 11:1-2

Peace and Good Night

I was going to say "the object of the faith is the Holy Spirit"

But "good testimony" is like that, well done.

Yes, but the iron axe was clearly raised by a current of water. It's weight didn't change, that's what I am saying.

The pitfall of my attitude is that I don't rely on God for miracles, the strength of my attitude is that I don't rely on God for miracles.

I feel like this conversation has been used by the Holy Spirit, to clarify where I stand: thankyou.
You seem to be doubling down on the absurd? How do you know the axe head didn't change it's weight? How do you know the current of water raised the axe head? Ridiculous! Water doesn't raise axe heads! It was a miracle!

If God messed with gravity, we would all fly off into space.

Water on the other hand, ebbs and flows.

But yes, I must apologise: I am against the idea that Creation has a special beginning, just the way I am against Evolution having a momentous beginning.

Not that I don't praise God for my existence, that's not it at all!

The Direction of Saving Faith: Hebrews 11:6

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that HE IS,
and that HE is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

What is the reward?

"He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward.
And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward."
Matthew 10:41
