    My grandfather needs your prayers

    To all TRUE Christians. I live with my dad, stepmom, stepsister, grandad and grandmom, and currently my house is so so sad because my grandad had to go to hospital (he's 81) with bad chest pains. He's home now but the doctor does not expect him to live past the month because he is very very ill and his heart is weak.
    PLEASE I kindly ask all of you to pray for him and call on God our Lord to help him! He is a non-believer but I love him dearly and I do not want him to die unsaved either. Please pray for his recovery and redemption. He needs your prayers now more than ever. I am praying fervently with you all. May God decide what is right for him in His eyes.

    His name is Patrick Drewery. Kindly consider him in your prayers, I know he will feel them.
    John 15:13
    Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

    Re: My grandfather needs your prayers

    Is/was your grandfather a minister?
    Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.

      Having a hospital keep the old man alive artifically is against God's wishes. If he never repented and is on his deathbed, it is too late to repent and go to heaven. Because he has chest pains, I imagine it is from the Devil jumping up and down on him, hastening his trip to Hell. Sorry.

        No, he was never a minister. He was a civil engineer working with mines before he retired.

          Re: My grandfather needs your prayers

          So basically, you’re asking us to ask God to ignore your grandfather’s denial of Christ?

          Other than asking things for yourself (Jesus said, "Ask and it shall be given") I have the greatest difficulty with prayer; you are asking God to change His Perfect Mind. This is a bit like you walking into a hospital, finding the brain-surgery theater and telling the surgeon what he should be doing.

          The next problem is that only your grandfather can seek Jesus – no one can seek Jesus on behalf of another, our souls are private, yet known unto God.

          Comfort yourself with the thought that, if your grandfather buys the farm, it was God’s Will.

                He is out of the hospital now, he only went in to be monitored by nurses for a couple of days. He is having chest pains because he's an 81 year old man with a heart condition. If God's will is for him to die and go to hell then so be it, but I will continue to pray for him in the hope that if God does make himself apparent to him, his heart will be open to accepting God's final love. I will always pray for the eternal redemption and salvation of my loved ones. If it is God's will that he is taken from me and destined to burn for all eternity then so be it, but I will mourn him all the more. At least I will know I did everything I could to help save his immortal soul.

                  Re: My grandfather needs your prayers

                  From what you have said about him, he is a unrepentant heathen and doomed to be Satan's butt buddy.
                  Praying for a person in the eleventh hour is pointless. His bad life will reflect upon you and God will put a smudge on you. Your grandfather failed to follow God's word. It is too late for him. Do not let his evilness get on you. Keep away from him. As the day nears, the stench of the evil festering inside of him will get stronger and stronger. I am sure from time to time, you have gotten a whiff of it. Deathly foul.
                  Instead, spend your time at Church, reading you KJV. Reflect on your mis-deeds and how you can be a better better soldier for Christ. Find a Husband and get married. Do what God wants you to do.

                    It's a bitter pill to swallow, but I know you are right, Sir.
                    I will spend more time in Church. I already read my Bible continuously throughout every day but I will read it even more. I trust your opinion and your genuine understanding of God, which I respect immensely.

                    I want to find a good Christian husband really badly, I just don't know how to go about finding one. I will do anything to be the wife Jesus wants me to be and to raise a good Christian family in His name.

                      I am glad you came to your senses and have realized your grandfather is a lost cause and should be forgotten as quickly as possible. Distance yourself with Jesus.

                        I will not pray for an unrepentant atheist. He has chosen to lie with Satan and I will not shame my name by saying his in the eyes of the Lord.

                          On the contrary, you should pray for the man. Only that he will accept God before it's too late...... and time is running out quickly.

                          Be wary of false Kumbaya Christians who use a highlighter and scissors to read the Bible. God wants us to read the lines, not between the lines. False Christians will go to Hell:
                          Matthew 7:22                           Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
                          Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

                          Asking a Christian to prove God exists is like asking him to prove his phone rings because yours doesn't. Make that call yourself! Dial 0800-get-on-your-knees-and-pray.

                            I agree. It is very sad that he man has chosen Hell over the Loving Arms of Jesus so far. But remember, even the worst sinner can be Saved! Here is an inspirational story, Sister:

                            And I will pray for your grandfather!
                            Sweet Lord Jesus,
                            I want to pray for those who persecute me, my Lord.
                            Please, treat their children as you treated those of Egypt, when they upset you! (Psalm 135:8-9)
                            Dash their little children against the stones for their fathers iniquity! (Psalm 137:8-9)
                            Hit them on the cheek, and smash out their teeth! (Psalm 3:7)
                            Make their death and descent into Hell swift and terrible! (Psalm 55:15)
                            Scatter their broken bodies over the streets of their evil cities, like Benghazi, Amsterdam, Tokyo and Mecca! (Psalm 110:6)
                            Praised be Your Glorious Name™.

                            Amen.
