:::Thank you for that important clarification of the meanings of "faith" that raises further important questions. I would just like to add here to my remarks that Jesus may also have been impressed by the accomplishments of faith in nations like Rome or in Egypt where He grew up which nonetheless didn't even have the Law.

== Is the opposite of faith worry? It is not. ==
There is no authoritative source that indicates that worry is the opposite of faith. It is just opinion. For example, doubt could easily be called the opposite of faith. Of course, doubt is underlying condition of worry because doubters are more likely to worry. Doubt can cause a turning away of one's entire faith and cause apostasy. It cause also cause fear/worry. In short, BJibbs did a helpful edit as his first edit by asking for a citation. I decide to remove the sentence indicating that worry is the opposite of faith.
