Subject: DOES GOD HEAR ALL PRAYERS ? |
Bible Note: Makarios, I was discussing this very topic with a brother last week. You gave a good answer that I'm in general agreement with. One of the verses I brought up was John 9:31: "We know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He hears him." I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this if you'd care to comment. I've always been a little puzzled by this in light of 2 Cron. 33:12-13, etc. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
