Mark 9:19-24

    "You unbelieving generation," Jesus replied, "how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me."

    So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.

    Jesus asked the boy's father, "How long has he been like this?"

    "From childhood," He answered. "It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us."

" 'If you can'?" said Jesus. "Everything is possible for one who believes."

    Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!" 

 

"You unbelieving generation," Jesus replied, "how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me."

Matthew 17:17

    "You unbelieving and perverse generation," Jesus replied, "how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me."

    "You unbelieving and perverse generation," Jesus replied, "how long shall I stay with you and put up with you? Bring your son here."

 

So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.

    Even while the boy was coming, the demon threw him to the ground in a convulsion.

 

... "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!"

And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
