I actually have a question for you... Faith is a component of our consciousness, which in itself is something that we do not completely understand. Being what it is, how can we measure what we call consciousness- which is a seemingly incorporeal phenomenon- and compare it with some tangible like a mustard seed?
Hey Moderators! Troll Alert!
to answer the original poster's question, the phrase he posted would in fact be figurative.
If you understood that the Bible is brimming with incredible poetry, full of metaphors and imagery used to explain importance and vastness of the statements made, you'll find nothing puzzling about the mustard seed allegory.
It's akin to somebody saying that they will punch your lights out. They don't literally mean they'll come over to your house and punch all of your lightbulbs.

nice vid.
Problem is, OP is challenging christians to order things to move around based on faith.... not martial arts.
Or wait, are you suggesting that martial artists are actually breaking things based on christian faith....and not chi-energy or whatever it is that they use?
