Faith - Would it be easier to have faith in God if we could have walked with Jesus?

Would it be easier to have faith in God if only we could have been alive and followed Jesus and witnessed him walk on the water or raise the dead? There was a time even I would have answered of course, who wouldn't believe if they could have seen these things..... Recently I found this passage in the bible.....


John 14:6, 7 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."


8Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us." 9Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'?


Phillip has answered the age old question for us! After God was with Phillip for in the person of Jesus the Christ for 3 years It was not easier for Phillip to have faith in God. The bible teaches that we walk by faith not by sight.
