Subject: John 9:31 is it a true spiritual fact. |
Bible Note: I would agree, but have to disagree, for scripture says "God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a ----- worshipper of God,------- and doeth his will, him he heareth," not God heareth not sinners when they pray concerning "healing and other works of the spirit." Why can't we simply accept scripture in it's simplicity, and leave what we don't understand to the fact that there is a lot that we will never understand while in this fleshly state, rather than rationalizing and trying to make others believe what "we think" the word means... God (simply) heareth not sinners. The Word says it. The entire context of Christ's teaching supports it supports it and I believe it. Anyone who insists on adding to the word might be wise to consider the warnings in the last few verses of the book of Revelations. George |
