Using Offset in Custom Post Type Query

Question

I'm using the following query for a custom post type:

<?php
             $posts = get_posts(array(
                'numberposts' => -1,
                'offset' => 20,
                'post_type' => 'faqs'

             ));


            if($posts)
            {

                foreach($posts as $post)
                {
                    echo '<li class="faq">
                        <p class="title"><a href="' . get_permalink($post->ID) . '">' . get_the_title($post->ID) . '</a></p></li>';
                        /*<h4 class="title"><a href="' . get_permalink($post->ID) . '">' . get_the_title($post->ID) . '</a></h4><p>' . get_the_excerpt($post->ID) . '</p></li>'; */
                }

            }
             wp_reset_query();
            ?>

Is there a reason as to why the offset parameter doesn't work? Perhaps I need to write an entirely different query altogether?

Set 'numberposts' value to a large positive number. With numberposts set to -1 it will return all the faqs ignoring the offset value.
