A Sin Unto Death


1 John 5:16
16 If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life--to those who commit sins that do not lead to death. There is sin that leads to death; I do not say that one should pray for that.

What is a sin unto death mean? It is willfully rejecting Christ and the resistance to the Holy Spirit's testimony of Christ being God's Son and our Messiah. Also included is not excepting the divine grace offered through the blood of Christ on the cross. Are you among the ones who are in the state of apostasy?

Romans 1:18

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth



We have much evidence that Christ is who He said He was! It is plain to see it in the mere creation of where we live, Earth. The wide expanse of the sky and all that it holds, seemingly everything sitting, nothing attached and holding it in place! We also have an historical record, the bible, stating the facts of the birth of Christ until His death and resurrection and for an account of our future, as told to John in the book of Revelation.

Romans 1:19-20

19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them
20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.


These are the wicked...
Romans 1:21-32

21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 
23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. 
24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 
25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. 
26 For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 
27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. 
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. 
29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 
30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 
31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 
32 Though they know God's decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.

How can you deny God? Satan is there, offering all the passing pleasures that the world can offer. The things that do not count, the things that will be left when you go stand before God, are you willing to submit to Satan? Are you willing to say to God that you did not believe because you thought He was a joke? I challenge you take your bible, and if you do not have, buy one. Read it and see the truth for yourself. I would also be willing to say, look around you and there will be a Christ follower who will be glad to tell you of the hope that is found in Christ alone!

Lord, I ask, knowing that You will give us all the souls we pray for. I pray for the ones who will read this testimony today and will know in their heart, this is the truth. Asking in Jesus name, that they will fall on their knees and beg for mercy, knowing that you alone save souls from Hell. Amen
