Jesus taught that both believing and forgiving are key to effective prayer. Why do you think they are important?

If you pray without faith, it is just mouthing words without meaning it. If you truly have faith in God, you can get what you pray for, but we have to ask God to forgive us our sins and we too must forgive others - only then will God help us

Jesus was angered by religious people inappropriately taking people`s money (robber`s den). Why did Jesus take such dramatic action and not just condemn with words?

The religious people used to make the people buy doves and other sacrificial offerings at expensive rates from the temple itself. If they brought it cheaper from the market or home, it was rejected by the priests. That is why Jeus was angered at them and called it a robber's den. He knew the religious people at the temple who were selling the stuff would not listen to him, so he upset everything to make them stop.

What did the blind man acknowledge about Jesus by calling him the "Son of David."? Note: David was a great king of Israel. The "Messiah" was predicted to be a direct descendent of David, as Jesus was.

By calling Jesus the "Son of David" the blind man acknowledges him as the Messiah, since the messiah was predicted to be a direct descendent of David, as Jesus was.
