Min. Warren Rudd teaching on Spiritual Duds. A dud is an ammunition round or explosive that fails to fire or detonate, respectively, on time or on command. Poorly designed devices (for example, improvised explosive devices (IEDs)), and small devices, have higher chances of being duds. The Greek word for Unbelief is Ap-is tee-ah meaning: unfaithfulness, faithless, want of faith, unbelief, weakness of faith. Another Greek word is ap-is-tos meaning: incredible, unbelieving. Apistos describes someone who rejects or refuses Gods inbirthings of faith 4 Types of Spiritual Duds: Spiritual Dud#1- Faithless and Unbelieving Christians Spiritual Dud#2 --Religious Carnal Christians Spiritual Dud#3 --Selfish Christians Spiritual Dud#4 --Spiritually Weak Christians... UNBELIEF=DISOBEDIENCE: JOHN 3:36 OBEYETH NOT (KJV Believeth not). To refused to be persuaded, to refuse belief, disobedient. (Vine p. 319) Not to allow oneself to be persuaded, not to comply with, to refuse or withhold belief. (Thayer p. 57) Unbelief then can be viewed from the angle of willfully rejecting the evidence that should convince any honest person. Jesus would agree that enough evidence exists to make unbelief inexcusable. (John 20:27; Romans 11:23). UNBELIEF=THE PERSON WHO CANNOT TRUST GOD: JOHN 20:27 FAITHLESS-without faith or trust. Unbelief is also the condition of one that cannot allow themselves to trust God. Either they dont think He exists, or something has persuaded them that God is untrusthworthy (not worthy of my trust). Unbelief is lacking confidence in God......https://youtube/watch?v=k7Gs8rRmoDM
