Reminder: God does not hear the prayers of sinners.

[Lost Sheep McUinnean]

Re: Reminder: God does not listen to the prayers of sinners.

Guess god hears the prayers of no one, for all of us are sinners in the eyes of god.

Romans 3:23 "for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God"

It does not say "for all except True Christians", it says ALL, meaning EVERYONE.

You are a woman. And cunning though you think you may be, you are NOT a linguist. ALL and EVERYONE come from 2 entireley different base roots, with slightly differing nuances of meaning.

And even then you
1)dare to interpret something you have no understanding of. (Linguistics/Etymology)
2)interpret wrongly what you have previously interepreted using a wrong interpretation (the etymologies+ Scripture)
3) speak for God. (And that's just sheer impudence you hell-bound harlot)

Please stop it. Now.

All that shows me is that it is forgiven, yet not forgotten.

How do you expect God to forget something? He's God. What does forgiveness from sin mean if the slate isn't wiped clean?

Are you only slightly retarded or are you a full on demon possessed mongo?

At least you are attempting to quote scripture. I'll give you that. Did you not look through Pastor Levi's sermon on Christian perfection? Romans 3:23 is addressed.

I'll go ahead to go over it with you again. If you would continue reading your Bible in Romans 3, you would see that Paul writes in the very next verses.

24Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Sins that are past. As in no longer sinning.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

GLORY! It makes perfect sense, of course. If one refuses to listen to the Word of God, why in the Heavens should God listen to them? God's Plan is truly a logical and wonderful one!

Re: Reminder: God does not listen to the prayers of sinners.

Amen brother! That means that God does not hear the prayer of a joo, a muslim, a hairy krishna, a scientologist, and atheist or a boodhist. Not one syllable.

Only false Christians believe such things.

Re: Reminder: God does not listen to the prayers of sinners.

What if the sinner is praying for help to repent and turn her life over to The Lord?
That's what I did and then I found this site so I thought God must have led me here.

That's what repentance is for.

Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

I would like to post a quick reminder for those of you who call yourself Christians and sinners. As we all know, True Christians are Perfect. as evidenced by:

1 John 3:8-9 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

Now, some of you may not believe that. You may try to twist the verses posted in that sermon into believing that you are still a horrible sinner, but God loves you anyway. For those of you; I would ask, why do you even bother praying? Don't you know God doesn't listen to the prayers of sinners? God only listens to those who do His will.

After Jesus heals the blind man, a fellow speaking up for Christ tells us that; any man who does His Father's will, the Father will listen to him. Not those in sin.

John 9:31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.



But only the right kind of Christian. A True Christian

Here are additional references and resources that show us God withdrawing His protection and hearing from sinners.

Zechariah 7:12-13 Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the LORD of hosts.

Malachi 1:9 And now, I pray you, beseech God that he will be gracious unto us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your persons? saith the LORD of hosts.
Malachi 2:11-13 Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god. The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts.
And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.

James 1:6-7 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

1 Peter 3:7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.


This is why prayers are not answered. It's never God's fault. It's always yours, because you clearly did something to anger God to make Him cut you off.
