1 | sin unto death | 1 John 5:16 | New Creature | 50992 | ||
The small group Bible study I am involved in, is about to discuss the following two verses. I would appreciate the various opinions concerning the questions I will ask concerning these two verses, from as many of you as possible. I did a community search on this but did not see all these questions answered, which I believe are necessary in order to get a correct understanding of what is meant by these verses. 1 John 5:16-17 If any man see his brother sin a sin [which is] not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death. My questions concerning these two verses are as follows 1) Who is the intended audience of 1 John? 2) Is the death mentioned in these two verses physical or spiritual? 3) Is the word "brother" in verse 16 refer to a believing brother - yes or no? 4) what is this "sin unto death" refer to? 5) Is the article "a" before the word "sin" found in the Greek? Love and peace to you |

2 | sin unto death | 1 John 5:16 | Ray | 51031 | ||
Hi New Creature, 1)Everyone who would fellowship with the Father and His Son Jesus Christ. Anyone who had seen the Life and will come to the Light and be cleansed in His blood. 2)I think that the death mentioned is spiritual. God will give spiritual life. 3)Yes, a believing brother or one who is open to hearing the word of God. Just in passing, I fear for the testimony and outcome of Judas more than I have as I consider that no one (to my knowledge) had prayed for Judas. Contrast with John 17:12. 4) The sin of unbelief and apparent denial. 5) An "a" is there in all my available indicators. I hope that people will not be of the world, but rather have fellowship with Him. From the heart, Ray |
