This video is all about sin, and it is really something to think about. Brother Eli on the video have talks about the two kinds of sins we human are committed. A sin unto death and a sin not unto death. The Bible passage in the book of John 5:16 is very interesting. As it says that, "if you see your brother sin a sin that's not unto death, you should pray for them". This makes me wondering, about what are the sin that is categorize that is unto death and the one that is not unto death?
Brother Eli also, talks about the mortal sins and the other sins. This seems like even if I makes the same sin or mistake repeatedly, over and over, and if I didn't mean to commit this mistake, and I did not planned for it, then there is still a chances for forgiveness. Truly, it is a kind of a relief for me, because I already makes mistakes, the unplan mistake. This is like when Jesus told apostle Peter to forgive his brother not just seven times, but seventy times seven. That's 490 times and really a lot of forgiveness!
But then, again the brother Eli also talks about sin that is willfully. That is on the other hand is when you know something is wrong, but you still do it anyway. As it says in the book of Hebrews 10:26 that if you sin willfully after knowing the truth, there's no more sacrifice for sins. That is truly scary for me! This makes me really think that it is very important to try our very best to follow God's way. And of course not do bad things on purpose. So, I guess the big question is, are we trying our best to do what's right? It's something I definitely need to think more about.
This is what brother Eli told in the video from post https://ecency.com/hive-182074/@mcgi.cares/forgiveness-of-sins-or-mcgi-topic-review
What sin are you committing is it grievous or unpardonable. There are two kinds of sin in the bible, one is called sin unto death and the other is sin not unto death. Let us first read first john chapter 5 verse 16 if any man see his brother sin as 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. In the bible there are scenes which are considered mortal sins and there are sins which are not mortal sins.
Even if your brother or a sister sin unintentionally because you have to consider the lifetime of a person. If you will live 90 years old, chances are you may repeat the same sin all throughout those 90 years of life. And if the sin is not intended, it is not planned. But because of human weaknesses or temptations or situations that maybe you are put in a situation which is not under your control. Even if you have sometimes repeatedly committing the same scene if it is not intended or it is not intentional.
It is not meditated, it's not premeditated sin, there is a chance for forgiveness. In fact the lord Jesus Christ teaching the apostles said to peter when peter asked a particular question. In 18:21 of the book of Matthew, let us read then came peter to him and said lord how oft shall my brothers sin against me and i forgive him till seven times. Jesus saith unto him I say not unto thee until seven times but until 70 times seven. That is how broad the understanding of a Christian in dealing with a fellow Christian because the apostle peter is asking how many times.
How oft or how often shall my brother sin against me so it is not seen unto death. It is seen not against the holy spirit it is not classified as those sins which are unpardonable. In Portuguese they call it imperduabeo but the bible tells us that if a brother may sin seven times, am I going to pardon him. The lord Jesus Christ replied i say not unto thee until seven times but until 70 times 7. That is 490 if the sin is not agreeable sin 490 times it can be forgiven
As the lord Jesus Christ taught one of his apostles apostle Peter. Now how must we accept that teaching, the teaching does not encourage us to sing sin repeatedly, repeatedly, repeatedly; no it just shows to us the possibility that a man may sin repeatedly all throughout his life. The possibility for us to understand how broad is the forgiveness of God to man if the sin that he may commit does not belong to those sins which are called unpardonable sin. Because if you sin willfully about sins which are unpardonable sins.
Here's what the word of God says in the book of Hebrews chapter 10 verse 26 let us read for if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation which shall devour the adversaries. That is dependent on the intention or in the situation. Also if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remained no more sacrifice for sins.
It just means that Jesus Christ our lord is qualifying or teaching us how to classify sins of our brother, our sister, ourselves. What sin are you committing is it grievous or unpardonable if it is agreeable sin or unpardonable sin and you sin willfully meaning of your own free will. You committed that sin there is no force behind there are no situations that compel you to do such transgression. Then you will answer for it if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins.
