Wait what? surely you are not serious? of course it is it is literally one of the gifts of the spirit
These are the gifts of spirit according to scripture Administration, being an apostle, discernment, evangelism, exhortation, faith, giving, healing, helps, hospitality, knowledge, leadership, mercy, prophecy, serving, speaking in tongues, teaching or shepherding, and wisdom
Nice try.
So they said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” 32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house.
Acts 16:32
Faith that saves is. This isn't to say there isn't a natural faith. There certainly is. But a faith not produced by the Spirit employing the word of God won't save anyone.

She does not believe faith is a gift, so how can it be spiritually produced? She believes
her flesh produced her faith. From the depths of her incurably wicked heart out of which

Well, since you can't dazzle with your brilliance, all that's left is to baffle with your gobbledygook.Always enjoy the cover-up.
Again, misses the point. The cause of faith is very important.
Back to gobbledygook. I never claimed to be special.
You missed something he said. I've inserted it and a follow up question in your quoted post.
