And when his disciples were come to the other side [of the lake WU], they had forgotten to take bread. Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven [yeast] of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread. Which when Jesus perceived [it], he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, [that it is WU] because ye have brought no bread? Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up? How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven [yeast] of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? Then understood they how that he bade [told] them not [to] beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine [teaching] of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees. Mat 16:5-9 Not having much faith hinders understanding spiritual things. So, it follows that having strong faith helps one understand. (Click gold Scripture references for Principle Interrelations)

And ye have not his word abiding [dwelling WU] in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. Jh 5:38

And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer [bear with] you? Bring thy son hither [here]. Lk 9:41 Mat 17:17 Jesus does not like being around unbelief and perversion.

If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. But if I do [them], though ye believe not me, believe the works [miracles WU]: that ye may know, and believe [understand WU], that the Father is in me, and I in him. Jh 10:37-38

I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again [and now WU], I leave the world, and go to the Father. His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb [figures of speech]. Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee [questions]: by [because of WU] this we believe that thou camest forth from God. Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? Jh 16:28-31 If you clearly can see who Jesus is, you won’t have to ask him questions to figure out he came from God; you will just believe.

O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. And I have declared unto them thy name [made you known WU], and will declare it: that the love wherewith [with which] thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them. Jh 17:25-6 Believing that Jesus was sent by God brings him into our life.
