@@nancymundy_77777 Unbelief does lead to the second death, but if a believer chooses to live in unrepentant and willful sin, their belief is in fact unbelief, and they will not be delivered from the second death. Read 1 John 3.
Exactly, that's what i also thought one time when i read this verse, Exactly how you have explained. God doesn't take pleasure in the death of wicked,He desires that all should come to the knowledge of His Son. May God bless you Johnson. I pray that God leads us only to His truth daily. May God bless you and your family.
Thank you very much fellow soldier in Christ, I was curious about that scripture, I am so great full to our Heavenly Father for giving you wisdom knowledge and understanding through his Holy Spirit to you, please keep up the AWSOME work!!! Fighting that great fight of faith, God bless you and yours in the precious name of our messiah Jesus Christ.Amen 🙏❤️✝️
Thank you for this. I was doing my morning study and had questions about this specifically. I searched various resources and got some good information but needed more clarity. After praying about it God led me to your site. Now I understand. To God be the glory. God bless you and your family in Jesus name.
Gospel means good news! The bad news is we have all sinned and deserve the wrath to come. But Jesus the Messiah died for our sins, was buried, and then raised on the third day, according to the scriptures. He ascended into heaven and right now is seated at the Father's right hand. Jesus said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation. “2 Peter 1:20” We shouldn’t have any views in the word of God. The bible should speaks of itself. We just have to be diligent into studying His word, and inviting Holy Spirit to reveal His truth. In Jesus name Bless you brother
if it was that clear cut we wouldn't have so many opinions... Of course we have our own private interpretations, I think what Peter is saying is that there is a definite meaning that only God knows... but like mysteries... we don't always understand. Even the disciples didn't understand what Jesus was saying all the time. Studying the word is my way of talking to God.. but I've read chapters over time and had confusion and understanding, and many times still not sure. But I'm not worried because God knows my heart and I'm trying to understand.
@@creinicke1000 that’s exactly why. We are not meant to interpret the word of God. That’s the job of the Holy Spirit. As we read, we’re meant to rely on Holy Spirit to reveal the truth. For us to really understand we’re meant to let the bible explain the bible.
The first part is talking about a believer because it’s talking about brother committing a sin not leading to death and since that sin is not leading to death, that means they’re not committing the sin that leads to death, that makes them a believer and of course that’s if we’re talking about physical death. And which means that God will give him life implies that God will spare his mortal so that he can live longer but in the spirit he is still saved.
The key questioned asked, which solves most arguments between contradicting theologies was WHAT DOES BROTHER mean. The typical assumption is that is means everyone being written to by the NT authors was assumed to be saved leading to two disparate conclusions. One, that the anti-christ behaviors often discussed among “believers” and the DEATH that results somehow refers to a loss of eternal rewards or being punished by dying physically and being ushered into glory early. Two, that they were potentially “saved” by grace and lost ETERNAL LIFE. The middle ground, detailed through scripture and especially in this book, is that you can name and claim salvation all you want, but God judges the heart, and trials will reveal who was true and who was not (John 2:24-25).
Also studies show if your involved in the occult you have a way higher rate of death and freak accidents - I know a guy that can definetly back this statement up.
Before even listening, let me see if I can mail this one. 1John is written to describe the difference between the saved and self deceived professing believer. This sin that leads to death is what is described in Hebrews 6 and 10, which is it hear the Word, see the Spirit working, and TASTE the glory of God without ever actually LOSING YOUR LIFE to Jesus in order to GAIN YOUR ETERNAL LIFE.
So we shouldn't pray for unbelievers to die.. even very bad people. But all unbelievers have a chance ... so we should pray for them to have faith and be saved..
THE GOD WHO BRINGS THE DEAD TO LIFE HE IS MIGHTY AND POWERFUL TO SAVE even those who have sold their souls to the devil HE IS A MAN OF WAR, VICTORY AND MAJESTY BELONG TO HIM, THE GOD AND THE FATHER OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
It is specific what blaspheming the Holy spirit is Mark 3 : 22-30 Christ was doing miracles and they were saying he has an unclean spirit meaning they were saying God is evil.
I believe it is a brother in Christ because 1John is about being one in Christ spiritual, I believe the prayer would be to reveal their sin or sins to go before God in Jesus name for forgiveness and to stop sinning, but there is a sin that never will be forgiven, read Mathew 12 : 31-32
In this example, shows us that a believer strays from the truth and punishable by physical death. That children of God can lose their physical lives through their sins can be seen, for example, in Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5:1-11). Born-Again Who Habitually Live in Sin Become Premature die (Romans 6:16). At the Lord's Supper, brothers and sisters polluted Jesus' work of salvation through their unknown sins (1 Corinthians 11:27-30). The second part of the verse tells us that a true happiness is not in will commit this sin to death, since the word 'brother' no longer occurs. Here it is mentioned when a believer has a "sinner of leads his erroneous path to repentance, which leads a soul to be saved from death." If someone succeeds in leading a lost man to salvation, whose person is atoned for all sins.
Every time you encounter a passage that directly disproves OSAS, you bust out the gymnastics. John's epistles (like all NT epistles) we're addressed to believers. The "brother" is a believer in Christ.
@@anonymousballer4867 Because John's epistle was addressed to believers, therefore the "brothers" are believers, and the sin unto death was first and foremost sin leading to spiritual death. This ties to the spiritual principles behind the Law of Moses. Some sins could be atoned, others required exile and/or death. For example, physical adultery incurred physical death, because spiritual adulter aka idolatry was a covenant violation, which incurred spiritual death. The spiritual mirroring between Israel and the Body of Christ is unmistakable, but OSAS forces a reinterpretation of everything.
Two witnesses in Zechariah Zec 2:1-2, 6, 11 KJV - 1 I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand. 2 Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof. ... 6 Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD. ... 11 And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee. two witnesses with a reed measuring the people of God saying come out and join us this book also has the account of them facing satan in court of heaven but thats a whole different story here they are again Zec 3:9-10 KJV - 9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. 10 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree. and again in this chapter Zec 4:3, 6, 10, 12, 14 KJV - 3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof. ... 6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. ... 10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth. ... 12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves? ... 14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth. fresh oil, shining (pure) oil two anointed ones with fresh oil they have the latter rain to give you.ask for it. Zech 10:1 Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain; so the LORD shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.
@@octag8nn498 the two witnesses have the keys home everybody thinks they come later. heres the resurrection songs they found How one of the two witnesses got the ETA of resurrection please read these chapters over a few times along with your regular Bible reading and read them comparing them to now and you will be able to see more about when and how it happens. Isaiah 26, 66, Ezekiel 37, Zephaniah 3, and Deut 32, And if you still have time sing them all every day like i did for over a year they are some power songs light fires, and bring repentance, raise the dead, turn the tables, cause a ruckus. Which must be what the two witness are supposed to do because wow people get so upset at every word they say.
Taking the Lords Supper with unconfessed sin led to the Death of some in the Corinthian Church some were also weakened in their Faith and some got sick . while others were Put To Sleep { Christian Death} is always called sleep in Scripture. So I believe that this is the sin that brings Death since we already have a illustration of this in Corinth. This is why Paul would have us "Examine Ourselves" prior to receiving Communion 1 Corinthians 11. If we judge ourselves with righteous the Lord said we will not be judged this is Crucial and sobering when taking the Bread and the Cup
@@AboveReproachMinistry well we know it's not talking about someone who has died in there sins; because "we're appointed one time to die and then the judgment." So it would have to be talking about someone who is in a cycle of sin rejecting the fact that repentance is required for your salvation. There is only 1 possible way to view it, and we have to harmonize scripture to root out conclusions we know is not true. Therefore it would have to be someone who is repubate.
@@ChristianEvangelistJacobMThis is my thinking. The passages seem to be discussing death in the spiritual form. We cannot pray for the dead so there must be a spiritual deadness during physical life. A reprobate seems to fit as the dead unbeliever might be different from one once enlightened. In the end it must be someone who is unrepentant. I'm thinking Simon the sorcerer, was it? When he asked Paul to pray for him but his heart was not right and there was no further indication of change. Likewise, maybe a (non-ignorant) blasphemer or apostate who leaves the faith? Let the "dead bury the dead" so to speak? My concern is does that mean Christ stops praying for them? Can someone come back?
John begins this verse with an odd topic: sin leading to death. The reference to "sins that do not lead to death" has caused much debate among interpreters. Some believe these words refer to spiritual death. Others believe John has in view physical death. The claim that this is a reference to spiritual death often comes from those who argue a person can lose his or her salvation. However, this appears to stand in stark contrast to verse 13. Instead, it is more likely that physical death is in view. Christians today often fail to realize the physical consequences of sin. This can range from criminal punishment to social shame to health issues. Christians are neither immune to sin nor to the consequences of sin. We are still subject to paying the earthly price for our choices. This interpretation also makes better sense of the last comment of the verse. All disobedience to God is sin, and some disobedience can result in swift death. This may come by consequence, or by punishment. Ananias and Sapphira are an extreme example of this in action (Acts 5:1-11). Here, Christians are explicitly told to pray for brothers and sisters whose sins are not that severe. According to this, God is particularly open to those kinds of requests. This same comment seems to suggest that prayers for more grievous sins are less likely to be answered. Note, however, that this verse does not say we should not pray for Christians caught in worse sins. Others have interpreted this as a reminder that prayers for the unbeliever, whose sins are still "leading to death," should focus on their salvation, not their sin.
Above Reproach Ministry in the title of video can you please put all the the books, chapters and verses for each video being covered in your teaching. It would be greatly appreciated. You gave us Jeremiah, unless I’m incorrect, you did state what chapter and verse. Thank you so very much.
Yes the sin of unbelief… warned about many times in the bible. If a believer stumbles or struggles with sin he is still saved. If a believer decides to live in sin instead of walking by the spirit, it is literally the sin of unbelief. Thankfully God might take the breath out of our lungs before that happens so we die as believers.
I personally think, you're over thinking this. If a brother commits a sin that does not lead to death. Simply put, No one dies from his action. Not him or the victim of his sin. That sin can be forgiven and the individual can be helped through prayer. James 5:15 But, he needs to recognise his sin and confess it. 1John 1:9 However, if someone should loose their life as a result of whatever the sin is. That is the sin that leads to death, either his own, or that of another, then, circumstance have to be taken into consideration, but, the sin still has to be recognised. But, there are sins that we cannot be forgiven for Mark 3:29 and that sin is unrepentance. The sin we are talking about here is wilful sin, verse 18, Because of our imperfection, we all sin naturally, and for that reason, we die. But, with the hope of a resurrection. Romans 5:12 Jon 5:28-29. Some to a Heavenly Hope, others, to an earthy resurrection. Mat 5:5 This is called Adamic sin
If you go and look at Deuteronomy 29:18-21 I think you will find what the "sin that leads to death" ....might be.... "Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the LORD our God to go and worship the gods of those nations. Make sure there is no root among you that bears such poisonous and bitter fruit, because when such a person hears the words of this oath, he invokes a blessing on himself, saying, ‘I will have peace, even though I walk in the stubbornness of my own heart.’ This will bring disaster on the watered land as well as the dry. The LORD will never be willing to forgive him. Instead, His anger and jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse written in this book will fall upon him. The LORD will blot out his name from under heaven and single him out from all the tribes of Israel for disaster, according to all the curses of the covenant written in this Book of the Law."
His teaching is 99% spot on, but @6:49 he falls into a typical theological misunderstanding. Can we walk away from our salvation, or will God preserve me no matter what I do. The answer to both is wrong! When we profess faith, does that guarantee salvation, or does God judge the heart, and give salvation to those He knows are true? John 2:24-25, and many other passages (search Gid judges/examines the heart) describes the latter. If God saves us He CHANGES OUR HEART, and He CAUSES US TO ONEY, and the Spirit POURS OUT AGAPE IN OUR HEARTS. As Paul describes in Romans 7, we AS BORN AGAIN BELIEVERScan desire to do the right thing all we want, but it is only by the power of the Spirit that we can do it.
All sin leads to death. And yes Christ died for all sins. Sin not leading to death has to be that Christ's death and through the shedding of his blood forgiveness is given to all who believe.
Sins that lead to death (mortal) severe our charity with God and neighbor when we knowingly, with full consent of our will, unrepentantly say 'my will be done' in direct opposition to God. Venial sins, on the other hand, wound our relationship with God and neighbor. 1 John 5, writes that Christ is pleased when we intercede on behalf of those we see committing acts of commission or omission of venial sins. However, it is written that Christ will not remit mortal sin that we see others commit and that we are not to pray for that. We are then to perform an act of mercy and council those people concerning the consequences of sin that leads to death. We can pray for their eventual conversion of heart, mind and soul.
@Chief Sitting American John 19:11 "Jesus answered, “You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.”
@Chief Sitting American 1 John 5 "16 If any one sees his brother committing what is not a mortal sin, he will ask, and God[b] will give him life for those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin which is mortal; I do not say that one is to pray for that. 17 All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin which is not mortal."
@Chief Sitting American Gal 5:21 19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, anger, quarrels, dissensions, factions, 21 envy,[e] drunkenness, carousing, and things like these. I am warning you, as I warned you before: those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
@Chief Sitting American St. Paul excommunicated the man committing unrepentant sexual immorality (mortal sin). He admonished those who were proud instead of mourning (venial sin). 1 Cor 5 "5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father’s wife. 2 And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have gone into mourning and have put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this? 3 For my part, even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already passed judgment in the name of our Lord Jesus on the one who has been doing this. 4 So when you are assembled and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.
@Chief Sitting American 1 Cor 6 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
The three examples of physical death you gave (overdose, gunshot, and car accident) were caused by spiritual sins that lead to death, the mortal sins against the Commandments: drug / alcohol abuse, stealing and eluding arrest.
Gal 5: "The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery; idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions, and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
If any1 watches the news about Mexico they will see alot of sins leading to death. If those people would turn from their sins they might not end up hanging from the road with a sign on their dead body as a reminder not to : steal , tell secrers , talk bad on others , etc.
There's a whole lot more I just forget it's so many dead bodies that end up this way. I believe bad company corrupts good character to and alot of individuals are over confident before disaster and death strikes.
*Hi Jason!* The Early Church prayed for the dead because 1) you or I have no idea what the dieing were believing or going thru moments before death. 2) the Early Church, the one that gave you the Bible, had always included the Canonical Books that Luther the, the 1st official Protestant removed from the already finalized Bible. He removed what are called "The Apocryphal" that included 7 complete books & parts of 2 others. He had no more authority than you or I to do so. If you disagree, tell me about his "authority!" One of the books removed was Maccabees ll ... which states that praying for the dead is an good & honorable thing. This assures us that there is a place where sinners go that are guilty of sins that are not spiritually deadly (Mortal), but still guilty of non-deadly sin. (Venial) (2 Maccabees 12: 45-46) … 45 And because he considered that they who had fallen asleep with godliness, had great grace laid up for them. 46 It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins. ///(1 John 5:17)... All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that does not lead to death. /// (Rev. 21:26-27) 26 And into the city will be brought the glory and honor of the nations. 27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who practices an abomination or a lie, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. I'm speaking of the place that tells us where those souls who are not in grave/mortal sin, but in Venial Sin, (non-deadly sin). They are held where temporarily until those less serious sins are rectified & payed for, upon rendering that soul "purified". At that time, Almighty God welcomes that soul to Life Everlasting (Heaven)! That is the Doctrine of "Purgatory" where numerous Biblical passages refer to it. Of course, it was not named at that time, as was not the term "Trinity", though it was taught, also., yes? Here is proof that it was believed and taught in the Early Church. --- If that Early Church was wrong, then so is your Bible. www.churchfathers.org/purgatory www.ncregister.com/blog/25-descriptive-and-clear-bible-passages-about-purgatory
@@AboveReproachMinistry The complete, canonized Bible came from the Early Church. Before it was written and canonized (for 100s of yrs.) it was taught orally (Sacred Tradition) and not the tradition of men. The difference being that Sacred Tradition was taught by Jesus and handed down to his apostles. They were promised the Spirit of Truth, until the end of the age. If the apostles would fall from that truth, then the Bible cannot be true. You would have no way of knowing. If the Catholic Church (the early church) did not safe-guard it, we wouldn't have it. however we would still have the Church & Magistarium, because our Savior never promised a book ... He promised a Church! I would encourage you to study early Christianity, Jason. Knowing its factually recorded history will guide you to an accurate perspective. Just to note: I often advise that one uses Wiki, Britannica or New World encyclypedias, but people are able to edit and mis-inform their interner sources. Non-Catholic Christian articles regarding history is accidently or purposely spun, in order to support their own faith ideology. Luther did the same when he removed books (because of Purgatory) and added the word "alone" behind the word "faith." Know that the only accurate info on Early Christianity comes from the only source of history that was present at the time. The Catholic Church (CC)! Outside of the CC there is hardly even a mention of Jesus Christ. Sometimes you can avoid the edits by searching around a topic. EX: A pope was involved in over-seeing the Church Council that decided on the books in the Bible. That may or may not be mentioned in Wiki's "New Testament Canon" search, however you might find it in a seperate search for that particular pope. *Pope Damasus I* This is accurate: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Damasus_I This article as of last night appeared very accurate: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the_New_Testament_canon#Council_of_Trent Long read & accurate at least on the subject of our conversation: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_canon I appreciate your attention and I pray you & family are well.

If a person hears the gospel - but it's foolishness to them - and they are an enemy of God in their mind - why should we pray to God that He open their mind to understand the truth? Free will theology (Arminianism) is such a lie - because if one can see - what decision is there to make? And if one can't see - why would they believe ? It is God who opens eyes. One of the pillars of Calvinist doctrine is that Christ only died on the cross for the elect. But as you well cited (1 John 2:2) - Christ is the propitiation for the sin of the whole world. Both Arminianism and Calvinism are the teachings of men - the truth exists in between. We are saved because God has mercy and opens our blind eyes AND Christ died for the sins of the whole world. (John 1:29). Salvation from beginning to end is all a work of God...everything from choosing us (Eph 1:4)...to drawing us (John 6:44)....to quickening us (John 6:63),(Eph 2:1kjv)… to sealing us (Eph 1:13,14)...to sanctifying us (1 Cor 1:30)...to glorifying us (Rom 8:29,30). There's no room for ‘us’...in salvation...otherwise it's religion...man-centered...effectuated by the will of unregenerate, fallen, hostile in mind creatures...who the Bible says...DO NOT SEEK AFTER GOD....NOR DO THEY UNDERSTAND!! (Rom 3:11) That is unless one wants to make an exception ?? Thank you for your ministry and your youtube shorts. The only problem - when one goes to share - the link address takes them to a sensual video - welcome to tiktok and the spirit of the world 😪
I don’t believe this is entirely true,I believe we must repent continuously. I’ve also saw many videos of people who claim to have went to (experienced/NDA) hell and saw souls of people they knew and their only fault was not being forgiving of someone who wronged them. Doesn’t sound like something Jesus didn’t pay for,but can’t really say. Which also in my opinion means God is also unforgiving with probably trillions of souls in eternal disparity over something very human and not exactly sinful. If He was truly forgiving He would take all those to Heaven who did their best and the rest would be reincarnated to try again. I believe very much in God and want to do His works I was sent here for but it’s difficult when I see a lot of hypocrisy in how humans are supposed to be more controlled than He is Himself.

This is my warning to you because I am worried. You do not deserve this, please do not take my words lightly, you never know who one is talking to - am I just a random person or am I filled now with a Holy Spirit? I am writing this to tell you that you're wrong. First of all, burn that image of "Christ" behind you. That is NOT how God looks like (demons love that picture and/or a cross with Jesus on it). In fact, there is a demon behind that picture which you pray to, giving it power and it is deceiving you. It is written, "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." This is his third commandment and you're blatantly breaking it meaning, you either are deceived (reading the wrong Bible) or just plainly not keeping his commandments (which makes you a liar). Secondly, we should pray for our enemies but not for our true enemies. Our true enemies are not of flesh and blood. Besides, who are YOU to decide when to and when not to pray for someone who is still alive, here on Earth? We know what death is, eternal death. It comes after this life, depending if we were in Christ or not. There is little to no psychical death in Bible, as I see it. Death is DEATH, not "overdosing and dying", "bullet through the head" or similar bull. You might say now: "Yeeee dude but this is my interpretation..." - forget about that bull as well, Bible is not to be interpreted but to understand it as it is - the WORD of GOD. One can either READ it properly through HIS eyes and know ti is the truth or NOTHING. There is no in-between, "Oh I think he said that or that"... If one cannot see it straight away, that only means that one needs to spend more time fasting, casting own demons out, praying to Lord and keeping his commandments all the time as much as possible to gain His favour in revealing more. .... I am going too much now off-topic, let me go back to the subject. Thirdly, Jeremiah was old testament meaning, God saying not to pray for them (that are still alive) because God was deciding everything - and there was no advocate at that time, and you know who our advocate is - Jesus Christ. Fourthly, "Not a conversation for today" in your mind is not a conversation FOREVER! That is disturbing, you spending countless hours, getting the wrong conclusion which means, not only you MIGHT not see Heaven - but you'll continue being cursed here on Earth. It is written, whoever twists God's word is cursed. All you had to do is KEEP READING the next few chapters in this video yet you SKIP them right after saying "Not a conversation for today". The irony, ha. I am referring to: "Whoever says 'I know Him' but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him..." I've seen so many Christians that do not keep the Sabbath holy, for example. Oh and yeah, did you just pray for "XZY down the street "on this video, or was that just as an example? Just wondering. We can be erased from the book of life, no matter what YOUR conclusion is after "countless" hours. th-cam.com/video/og-CxTI7EG4/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=IsaiahSaldivar
Jeremiah 7 tells us that God doesn't hear prayers from the abortionist idolatorers and the oppressors nor their intercessors prayers are not heard of by God for they never repented Jeremiah 7 stipulates. 1 JOHN 4 God is love and we must have love for one another or we have no relationship with Christ. Therefore a righteous Democrat Believers is a true Oxymoron likewise for the idolatorers and the narcissistic oppressors like King Saul. Love the Lord with all your heart mind and soul and likewise love your brother as thyself. SIN UNTO DEATH IS NOT ABIDING IN LOVE WITH ONE ANOTHER.

PRAY WITHOUT CEASING
(1st line from Psalm 55:17)
Evening and morning and at noon I will pray
In praise with thanksgiving all of the day
I'll bring to Him all my worry and woe
To the feet of my Lord Jesus they'll go
Cast all your burdens at the feet of the Lord
His mercy and blessings on us will be poured
Don't carry your burdens with strife and alone
When you talk to Him, miracles are shown

God doesn't take pleasure in the death of wicked,He desires that all should come to the knowledge of His Son.

I pray that God leads us only to His truth daily.
May God bless you and your family.
Thank you brother. This has helped me a lot. It breaks my heart that people can be so blind to their own self destructive choices.
It's a harsh reality to know that everyone is not going to heaven. Bless you and your family.
Thank you very much fellow soldier in Christ, I was curious about that scripture, I am so great full to our Heavenly Father for giving you wisdom knowledge and understanding through his Holy Spirit to you, please keep up the AWSOME work!!! Fighting that great fight of faith, God bless you and yours in the precious name of our messiah Jesus Christ.Amen 🙏❤️✝️
Thank you for this. I was doing my morning study and had questions about this specifically. I searched various resources and got some good information but needed more clarity. After praying about it God led me to your site. Now I understand. To God be the glory. God bless you and your family in Jesus name.
I had the same experience this morning. Thank you and thank God.
Gospel means good news! The bad news is we have all sinned and deserve the wrath to come. But Jesus the Messiah died for our sins, was buried, and then raised on the third day, according to the scriptures. He ascended into heaven and right now is seated at the Father's right hand. Jesus said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."
I really enjoy watching how you relate the chapters and bring it together .
Thank you, I'm grateful to God for using you to help teach me.

@ we are allowed to disagree and maintain fellowship and unity around core gospel doctrines
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation. “2 Peter 1:20”
We shouldn’t have any views in the word of God. The bible should speaks of itself. We just have to be diligent into studying His word, and inviting Holy Spirit to reveal His truth. In Jesus name
Bless you brother
if it was that clear cut we wouldn't have so many opinions... Of course we have our own private interpretations, I think what Peter is saying is that there is a definite meaning that only God knows... but like mysteries... we don't always understand. Even the disciples didn't understand what Jesus was saying all the time. Studying the word is my way of talking to God.. but I've read chapters over time and had confusion and understanding, and many times still not sure. But I'm not worried because God knows my heart and I'm trying to understand.
@@creinicke1000 that’s exactly why. We are not meant to interpret the word of God. That’s the job of the Holy Spirit. As we read, we’re meant to rely on Holy Spirit to reveal the truth. For us to really understand we’re meant to let the bible explain the bible.
@@creinicke1000 I understand we have our own interpretation, but the word tell us not to have our own interpretation.
@@Samoa_685_M your interpretation of 2 Peter 1:20 might differ from others
@@anonymousballer4867 it only means one thing. That’s just what the word says, even reading it in context. God bless
The first part is talking about a believer because it’s talking about brother committing a sin not leading to death and since that sin is not leading to death, that means they’re not committing the sin that leads to death, that makes them a believer and of course that’s if we’re talking about physical death. And which means that God will give him life implies that God will spare his mortal so that he can live longer but in the spirit he is still saved.
The key questioned asked, which solves most arguments between contradicting theologies was WHAT DOES BROTHER mean. The typical assumption is that is means everyone being written to by the NT authors was assumed to be saved leading to two disparate conclusions. One, that the anti-christ behaviors often discussed among “believers” and the DEATH that results somehow refers to a loss of eternal rewards or being punished by dying physically and being ushered into glory early. Two, that they were potentially “saved” by grace and lost ETERNAL LIFE. The middle ground, detailed through scripture and especially in this book, is that you can name and claim salvation all you want, but God judges the heart, and trials will reveal who was true and who was not (John 2:24-25).
Jesus Christ saved me from alot of sins that would lead to death.
Also studies show if your involved in the occult you have a way higher rate of death and freak accidents - I know a guy that can definetly back this statement up.
Before even listening, let me see if I can mail this one. 1John is written to describe the difference between the saved and self deceived professing believer. This sin that leads to death is what is described in Hebrews 6 and 10, which is it hear the Word, see the Spirit working, and TASTE the glory of God without ever actually LOSING YOUR LIFE to Jesus in order to GAIN YOUR ETERNAL LIFE.
So we shouldn't pray for unbelievers to die.. even very bad people. But all unbelievers have a chance ... so we should pray for them to have faith and be saved..
THE GOD WHO BRINGS THE DEAD TO LIFE
HE IS MIGHTY AND POWERFUL TO SAVE even those who have sold their souls to the devil
HE IS A MAN OF WAR, VICTORY AND MAJESTY BELONG TO HIM, THE GOD AND THE FATHER OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Going back to Adam and eve satan said surely you will not die that's what comes to my mind as you talk about the scripture
Hope that helps.
I believe the wages of sin is death.
I hate evil.
Please pray for me....for i have sinned again
Please pray for me i have sinned again
It is specific what blaspheming the Holy spirit is Mark 3 : 22-30 Christ was doing miracles and they were saying he has an unclean spirit meaning they were saying God is evil.
We need to go do by what does GOD say in the bible?. NOT BY OUR OWN UNDERSTING.!!! and others here on earth.
Please Jesus forgive me
I believe it is a brother in Christ because
1John is about being one in Christ spiritual, I believe the prayer would be to reveal their sin or sins to go before God in Jesus name for forgiveness and to stop sinning, but there is a sin that never will be forgiven, read Mathew 12 : 31-32
In this example, shows us that a believer strays from the truth
and punishable by physical death. That children of God can lose their physical lives through their sins can be seen, for example, in Ananias and Sapphira (Acts 5:1-11).
Born-Again Who Habitually Live in Sin Become Premature
die (Romans 6:16).
At the Lord's Supper, brothers and sisters polluted Jesus' work of salvation through their unknown sins (1 Corinthians 11:27-30).
The second part of the verse tells us that a true happiness is not in
will commit this sin to death, since the word 'brother' no longer occurs.
Here it is mentioned when a believer has a "sinner of
leads his erroneous path to repentance, which leads a soul to be saved from death."
If someone succeeds in leading a lost man to salvation,
whose person is atoned for all sins.
Sin that leads to dearh is the sin against the Holy Spirit to say what he does is from the evil one Or to lie to the Holy Spirit Also leads to death
Don’t pray for those who are “in limbo.” Just another dangerous contradiction taught by may false denominations.
Every time you encounter a passage that directly disproves OSAS, you bust out the gymnastics. John's epistles (like all NT epistles) we're addressed to believers. The "brother" is a believer in Christ.
What’s OSAS
@@anonymousballer4867 OSAS stands for the belief, "once saved, always saved." Or basically that salvation cannot be lost.
@@endlessnameless7004 so I’m confused how you think this text disproves OSAS
@@anonymousballer4867
Because John's epistle was addressed to believers, therefore the "brothers" are believers, and the sin unto death was first and foremost sin leading to spiritual death. This ties to the spiritual principles behind the Law of Moses. Some sins could be atoned, others required exile and/or death.
For example, physical adultery incurred physical death, because spiritual adulter aka idolatry was a covenant violation, which incurred spiritual death.
The spiritual mirroring between Israel and the Body of Christ is unmistakable, but OSAS forces a reinterpretation of everything.
I believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
Two witnesses in Zechariah Zec 2:1-2, 6, 11 KJV - 1 I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand. 2 Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof. ... 6 Ho, ho, come forth, and flee from the land of the north, saith the LORD: for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the heaven, saith the LORD. ... 11 And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.
two witnesses with a reed measuring the people of God
saying come out
and join us
this book also has the account of them facing satan in court of heaven but thats a whole different story
here they are again Zec 3:9-10 KJV - 9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. 10 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.
and again in this chapter Zec 4:3, 6, 10, 12, 14 KJV - 3 And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof. ... 6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. ... 10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth. ... 12 And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves? ... 14 Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.

@@octag8nn498 the two witnesses have the keys home everybody thinks they come later.
heres the resurrection songs they found
How one of the two witnesses got the ETA of resurrection please read these chapters over a few times along with your regular Bible reading and read them comparing them to now and you will be able to see more about when and how it happens.
Isaiah 26, 66, Ezekiel 37, Zephaniah 3, and Deut 32,
And if you still have time sing them all every day like i did for over a year they are some power songs light fires, and bring repentance, raise the dead, turn the tables, cause a ruckus.
Which must be what the two witness are supposed to do because wow people get so upset at every word they say.
We could also look at alchoholics and users of deadly drugs.
People don't have to die to be judged John 3 :18 people who do this are already condemned while they are still physically alive.
Taking the Lords Supper with unconfessed sin led to the Death of some in the Corinthian Church some were also weakened in their Faith and some got sick . while others were Put To Sleep { Christian Death} is always called sleep in Scripture. So I believe that this is the sin that brings Death since we already have a illustration of this in Corinth. This is why Paul would have us "Examine Ourselves" prior to receiving Communion 1 Corinthians 11. If we judge ourselves with righteous the Lord said we will not be judged this is Crucial and sobering when taking the Bread and the Cup
I pray for people too much, kinda over it
If you read to the end of the chapter he actually says stay away from idols. I think that's what he's talking about. Idolatry
Or we can look at WILLFUL sin VS NON WILLFUL.
Respectfully, I don’t think that’s the distinction being drawn in 1 John 5
@@AboveReproachMinistry well we know it's not talking about someone who has died in there sins; because "we're appointed one time to die and then the judgment." So it would have to be talking about someone who is in a cycle of sin rejecting the fact that repentance is required for your salvation. There is only 1 possible way to view it, and we have to harmonize scripture to root out conclusions we know is not true. Therefore it would have to be someone who is repubate.
@@AboveReproachMinistry What does 1st John 3-6 mean ? and John 8- 34 Thank you.
@@ChristianEvangelistJacobMThis is my thinking. The passages seem to be discussing death in the spiritual form. We cannot pray for the dead so there must be a spiritual deadness during physical life. A reprobate seems to fit as the dead unbeliever might be different from one once enlightened. In the end it must be someone who is unrepentant. I'm thinking Simon the sorcerer, was it? When he asked Paul to pray for him but his heart was not right and there was no further indication of change. Likewise, maybe a (non-ignorant) blasphemer or apostate who leaves the faith? Let the "dead bury the dead" so to speak? My concern is does that mean Christ stops praying for them? Can someone come back?
John begins this verse with an odd topic: sin leading to death. The reference to "sins that do not lead to death" has caused much debate among interpreters. Some believe these words refer to spiritual death. Others believe John has in view physical death.
The claim that this is a reference to spiritual death often comes from those who argue a person can lose his or her salvation. However, this appears to stand in stark contrast to verse 13. Instead, it is more likely that physical death is in view. Christians today often fail to realize the physical consequences of sin. This can range from criminal punishment to social shame to health issues. Christians are neither immune to sin nor to the consequences of sin. We are still subject to paying the earthly price for our choices.
This interpretation also makes better sense of the last comment of the verse. All disobedience to God is sin, and some disobedience can result in swift death. This may come by consequence, or by punishment. Ananias and Sapphira are an extreme example of this in action (Acts 5:1-11).
Here, Christians are explicitly told to pray for brothers and sisters whose sins are not that severe. According to this, God is particularly open to those kinds of requests. This same comment seems to suggest that prayers for more grievous sins are less likely to be answered. Note, however, that this verse does not say we should not pray for Christians caught in worse sins. Others have interpreted this as a reminder that prayers for the unbeliever, whose sins are still "leading to death," should focus on their salvation, not their sin.
Above Reproach Ministry in the title of video can you please put all the the books, chapters and verses for each video being covered in your teaching. It would be greatly appreciated. You gave us Jeremiah, unless I’m incorrect, you did state what chapter and verse. Thank you so very much.
Yes the sin of unbelief… warned about many times in the bible. If a believer stumbles or struggles with sin he is still saved. If a believer decides to live in sin instead of walking by the spirit, it is literally the sin of unbelief. Thankfully God might take the breath out of our lungs before that happens so we die as believers.
I personally think, you're over thinking this. If a brother commits a sin that does not lead to death. Simply put, No one dies from his action. Not him or the victim of his sin. That sin can be forgiven and the individual can be helped through prayer. James 5:15 But, he needs to recognise his sin and confess it. 1John 1:9
However, if someone should loose their life as a result of whatever the sin is. That is the sin that leads to death, either his own, or that of another, then, circumstance have to be taken into consideration, but, the sin still has to be recognised.
But, there are sins that we cannot be forgiven for Mark 3:29 and that sin is unrepentance.
The sin we are talking about here is wilful sin, verse 18,
Because of our imperfection, we all sin naturally, and for that reason, we die. But, with the hope of a resurrection. Romans 5:12 Jon 5:28-29. Some to a Heavenly Hope, others, to an earthy resurrection. Mat 5:5 This is called Adamic sin
If you go and look at Deuteronomy 29:18-21 I think you will find what the "sin that leads to death" ....might be....
"Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the LORD our God to go and worship the gods of those nations. Make sure there is no root among you that bears such poisonous and bitter fruit, because when such a person hears the words of this oath, he invokes a blessing on himself, saying, ‘I will have peace, even though I walk in the stubbornness of my own heart.’
This will bring disaster on the watered land as well as the dry. The LORD will never be willing to forgive him. Instead, His anger and jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse written in this book will fall upon him. The LORD will blot out his name from under heaven and single him out from all the tribes of Israel for disaster, according to all the curses of the covenant written in this Book of the Law."
Do anyone know what chapter of Jeremiah he’s reading from?
Jeremiah 11
His teaching is 99% spot on, but @6:49 he falls into a typical theological misunderstanding. Can we walk away from our salvation, or will God preserve me no matter what I do. The answer to both is wrong! When we profess faith, does that guarantee salvation, or does God judge the heart, and give salvation to those He knows are true? John 2:24-25, and many other passages (search Gid judges/examines the heart) describes the latter. If God saves us He CHANGES OUR HEART, and He CAUSES US TO ONEY, and the Spirit POURS OUT AGAPE IN OUR HEARTS. As Paul describes in Romans 7, we AS BORN AGAIN BELIEVERScan desire to do the right thing all we want, but it is only by the power of the Spirit that we can do it.
All sin leads to death. And yes Christ died for all sins. Sin not leading to death has to be that Christ's death and through the shedding of his blood forgiveness is given to all who believe.
Amen!!
There is 1 sin christ could not pay for..and it will remain unforgiven in the next life..not everyone dies the second death!
And what sin do you say that was?
Sins that lead to death (mortal) severe our charity with God and neighbor when we knowingly, with full consent of our will, unrepentantly say 'my will be done' in direct opposition to God.
Venial sins, on the other hand, wound our relationship with God and neighbor.
1 John 5, writes that Christ is pleased when we intercede on behalf of those we see committing acts of commission or omission of venial sins.
However, it is written that Christ will not remit mortal sin that we see others commit and that we are not to pray for that.
We are then to perform an act of mercy and council those people concerning the consequences of sin that leads to death. We can pray for their eventual conversion of heart, mind and soul.

St. Paul excommunicated the man committing unrepentant sexual immorality (mortal sin).
He admonished those who were proud instead of mourning (venial sin).
1 Cor 5
"5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father’s wife.
2 And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have gone into mourning and have put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this?
3 For my part, even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already passed judgment in the name of our Lord Jesus on the one who has been doing this. 4 So when you are assembled and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.

11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
St. Paul excommunicated at least three men for the sins that lead to death (mortal sins).
Two for blasphemy and one for sexual sin.
The three examples of physical death you gave (overdose, gunshot, and car accident) were caused by spiritual sins that lead to death, the mortal sins against the Commandments: drug / alcohol abuse, stealing and eluding arrest.
Gal 5:
"The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery; idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions, and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
If any1 watches the news about Mexico they will see alot of sins leading to death.
If those people would turn from their sins they might not end up hanging from the road with a sign on their dead body as a reminder not to : steal , tell secrers , talk bad on others , etc.
There's a whole lot more I just forget it's so many dead bodies that end up this way.
I believe bad company corrupts good character to and alot of individuals are over confident before disaster and death strikes.

*Hi Jason!*
The Early Church prayed for the dead because 1) you or I have no idea what the dieing were believing or going thru moments before death. 2) the Early Church, the one that gave you the Bible, had always included the Canonical Books that Luther the, the 1st official Protestant removed from the already finalized Bible. He removed what are called "The Apocryphal" that included 7 complete books & parts of 2 others. He had no more authority than you or I to do so. If you disagree, tell me about his "authority!" One of the books removed was Maccabees ll ... which states that praying for the dead is an good & honorable thing. This assures us that there is a place where sinners go that are guilty of sins that are not spiritually deadly (Mortal), but still guilty of non-deadly sin. (Venial) (2 Maccabees 12: 45-46) … 45 And because he considered that they who had fallen asleep with godliness, had great grace laid up for them. 46 It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins. ///(1 John 5:17)... All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that does not lead to death. /// (Rev. 21:26-27) 26 And into the city will be brought the glory and honor of the nations. 27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who practices an abomination or a lie, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
I'm speaking of the place that tells us where those souls who are not in grave/mortal sin, but in Venial Sin, (non-deadly sin). They are held where temporarily until those less serious sins are rectified & payed for, upon rendering that soul "purified". At that time, Almighty God welcomes that soul to Life Everlasting (Heaven)! That is the Doctrine of "Purgatory" where numerous Biblical passages refer to it. Of course, it was not named at that time, as was not the term "Trinity", though it was taught, also., yes? Here is proof that it was believed and taught in the Early Church. --- If that Early Church was wrong, then so is your Bible.

All sin leads to death
@@AboveReproachMinistry The complete, canonized Bible came from the Early Church. Before it was written and canonized (for 100s of yrs.) it was taught orally (Sacred Tradition) and not the tradition of men. The difference being that Sacred Tradition was taught by Jesus and handed down to his apostles. They were promised the Spirit of Truth, until the end of the age. If the apostles would fall from that truth, then the Bible cannot be true. You would have no way of knowing. If the Catholic Church (the early church) did not safe-guard it, we wouldn't have it. however we would still have the Church & Magistarium, because our Savior never promised a book ... He promised a Church!
I would encourage you to study early Christianity, Jason. Knowing its factually recorded history will guide you to an accurate perspective.
Just to note: I often advise that one uses Wiki, Britannica or New World encyclypedias, but people are able to edit and mis-inform their interner sources. Non-Catholic Christian articles regarding history is accidently or purposely spun, in order to support their own faith ideology. Luther did the same when he removed books (because of Purgatory) and added the word "alone" behind the word "faith." Know that the only accurate info on Early Christianity comes from the only source of history that was present at the time. The Catholic Church (CC)! Outside of the CC there is hardly even a mention of Jesus Christ. Sometimes you can avoid the edits by searching around a topic. EX: A pope was involved in over-seeing the Church Council that decided on the books in the Bible. That may or may not be mentioned in Wiki's "New Testament Canon" search, however you might find it in a seperate search for that particular pope. *Pope Damasus I*

If a person hears the gospel - but it's foolishness to them - and they are an enemy of God in their mind - why should we pray to God that He open their mind to understand the truth? Free will theology (Arminianism) is such a lie - because if one can see - what decision is there to make? And if one can't see - why would they believe ?
It is God who opens eyes. One of the pillars of Calvinist doctrine is that Christ only died on the cross for the elect. But as you well cited (1 John 2:2) - Christ is the propitiation for the sin of the whole world. Both Arminianism and Calvinism are the teachings of men - the truth exists in between. We are saved because God has mercy and opens our blind eyes AND Christ died for the sins of the whole world. (John 1:29). Salvation from beginning to end is all a work of God...everything from choosing us (Eph 1:4)...to drawing us (John 6:44)....to quickening us (John 6:63),(Eph 2:1kjv)… to sealing us (Eph 1:13,14)...to sanctifying us (1 Cor 1:30)...to glorifying us (Rom 8:29,30). There's no room for ‘us’...in salvation...otherwise it's religion...man-centered...effectuated by the will of unregenerate, fallen, hostile in mind creatures...who the Bible says...DO NOT SEEK AFTER GOD....NOR DO THEY UNDERSTAND!! (Rom 3:11)

Proverbs 28-9
9] He that turneth away his ear from hearing the TORAH ie law, even his prayer shall be abomination.
I'd say it's the unforgivable sin that blasphemes the HS
I don’t believe this is entirely true,I believe we must repent continuously. I’ve also saw many videos of people who claim to have went to (experienced/NDA) hell and saw souls of people they knew and their only fault was not being forgiving of someone who wronged them.
Doesn’t sound like something Jesus didn’t pay for,but can’t really say.
Which also in my opinion means God is also unforgiving with probably trillions of souls in eternal disparity over something very human and not exactly sinful. If He was truly forgiving He would take all those to Heaven who did their best and the rest would be reincarnated to try again.
I believe very much in God and want to do His works I was sent here for but it’s difficult when I see a lot of hypocrisy in how humans are supposed to be more controlled than He is Himself.
Like praying for people who took the mark of the beast....dang...hey bro, do u think it's out there, the mark
Yes they basically commited suicide by getting marked
This is my warning to you because I am worried. You do not deserve this, please do not take my words lightly, you never know who one is talking to - am I just a random person or am I filled now with a Holy Spirit?
I am writing this to tell you that you're wrong.
First of all, burn that image of "Christ" behind you. That is NOT how God looks like (demons love that picture and/or a cross with Jesus on it). In fact, there is a demon behind that picture which you pray to, giving it power and it is deceiving you. It is written, "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." This is his third commandment and you're blatantly breaking it meaning, you either are deceived (reading the wrong Bible) or just plainly not keeping his commandments (which makes you a liar).
Secondly, we should pray for our enemies but not for our true enemies. Our true enemies are not of flesh and blood. Besides, who are YOU to decide when to and when not to pray for someone who is still alive, here on Earth? We know what death is, eternal death. It comes after this life, depending if we were in Christ or not. There is little to no psychical death in Bible, as I see it. Death is DEATH, not "overdosing and dying", "bullet through the head" or similar bull. You might say now: "Yeeee dude but this is my interpretation..." - forget about that bull as well, Bible is not to be interpreted but to understand it as it is - the WORD of GOD. One can either READ it properly through HIS eyes and know ti is the truth or NOTHING. There is no in-between, "Oh I think he said that or that"... If one cannot see it straight away, that only means that one needs to spend more time fasting, casting own demons out, praying to Lord and keeping his commandments all the time as much as possible to gain His favour in revealing more. .... I am going too much now off-topic, let me go back to the subject.
Thirdly, Jeremiah was old testament meaning, God saying not to pray for them (that are still alive) because God was deciding everything - and there was no advocate at that time, and you know who our advocate is - Jesus Christ.
Fourthly, "Not a conversation for today" in your mind is not a conversation FOREVER! That is disturbing, you spending countless hours, getting the wrong conclusion which means, not only you MIGHT not see Heaven - but you'll continue being cursed here on Earth. It is written, whoever twists God's word is cursed. All you had to do is KEEP READING the next few chapters in this video yet you SKIP them right after saying "Not a conversation for today". The irony, ha. I am referring to: "Whoever says 'I know Him' but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him..."
I've seen so many Christians that do not keep the Sabbath holy, for example.
Oh and yeah, did you just pray for "XZY down the street "on this video, or was that just as an example? Just wondering.
We can be erased from the book of life, no matter what YOUR conclusion is after "countless" hours.

Did you just assume I’m praying to the picture behind me?
Jeremiah 7 tells us that God doesn't hear prayers from the abortionist idolatorers and the oppressors nor their intercessors prayers are not heard of by God for they never repented Jeremiah 7 stipulates.
1 JOHN 4 God is love and we must have love for one another or we have no relationship with Christ. Therefore a righteous Democrat Believers is a true Oxymoron likewise for the idolatorers and the narcissistic oppressors like King Saul.
Love the Lord with all your heart mind and soul and likewise love your brother as thyself.
SIN UNTO DEATH IS NOT ABIDING IN LOVE WITH ONE ANOTHER.

The sin that leads to death is taking the mark of the beast. Not relevant to today’s church age
