Bible Question: I was wondering if it is against gods words to pray for someone to die? This individual will ruin my life for 4 years and the pain will be horrible! Its an ex gurl friend and she will ruin the rest of my highskool life. I tried to make her a christian but she wont take that road. She is on her way to hell and I cant do anything about it. uhg! What should I believe in? |
Bible Answer: Greetings and welcome to the forum. Yes it is wrong. Matt 22:36-39 says that when asked what the greatest commandment Jesus said it is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind. He also said that the 2nd greatest commmandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. This means that Jesus is telling you to love this individual. Continue to love her and pray for her. Pro 25:21-22 says that "If your enemy is hungry, give him some food to eat, and if he is thirsty, give him some water to drink. In this way you will make him feel guilty and ashamed, and the LORD will reward you". Remember that there is nothing that prayer can't change no matter how bad and hopeless it looks in the natural. The other thing to remember is that with God all things are possible, including getting through high school in one piece. prayon |
