People do not lose faith in a person unbless the person no longer has eanred the persons trust.
What could God ever do to a person to cause them to lose faith? Especially after he adopted them into his family even though we did not deserve or earn it.

They lose faith in cold, dead, like warm churches filled with people who claim to be holy but are judgemental legalistic hypocrites who don't know the gospel themselves.
I do believe we do have some good Holy Spirit filled churches with people truly seeking God and His ways.
However the only way we can grow as a Body is to be truthful with one another about our strengths and weaknesses.
When we make a mistake, are we humble enough to admit it and apologize?
When we speak in anger instead of love, do we recognize our need to make amends?
Do we really want to understand what others believe or do we just want to be right?
Those are the questions I ask myself a lot to see if I live out what I believe God wants us to do and be:
Be humble enough to admit you aren't perfect and seek and give forgiveness when needed.

The point being if people walk away, I always wonder....
Who do they believe God is?
What is the gospel they placed their trust in?
Because one of them is false or they would never have walked away from God.
Sometimes people don't believe God is loving enough to forgive and love Them, which is heart breaking and often shows the deterioration of families we have in ,the world today.
