==The Opposite of Faith: Doubt==
==The Opposite of Faith: Doubt==
If faith is ''a trusting action taken based on knowledge'', then doubt is having that knowledge but not trusting it to aid you through an unknown circumstance. For example, it would be like saying, ''I know about God and what He is capable of, but I won't trust that knowledge in this situation because of all the unknown factors involved''.

Therefore doubt is a reaction to uncertainties rather than certainties.
Jesus acknowledges that doubt is the opposite of faith.
