Each and every righteous person who fears Almighty God, and adamantly honors the
ultimate Day of Judgment, no matter poor or rich, sick or healthy, strong or
weak, black or white, all and all the time needs to seriously focus on what the
bible tells us in regards to the Judgment Day accountability, as well as on our
praying obligations, not only for ourselves, but also for others.
Definitely each person is accountable for his actions, but praying for those who
are in need for spiritual riches are very helpful and blessed by God.
Our Holy father is always ready with open arms to forgive our sins and write off
our transgressions, no matter what they are, big or small provided that our
repentance is genuine.
It is vital to recognize that every one of us is accountable for his actions be
righteous or evil.
Children are not accountable for their parents’ actions and vise versa.
This reality and plain truth is stated clearly to us in Ezekiel.
In hard as well as in good times, let all stay modest, loving caring and pray
for each other. God has instructed us to do so in Saint James letter as shown
below
Importance Of Praying
James 5/13-19
Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them
pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of
faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has
committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your offenses to one another, and
pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a
righteous person is powerfully effective. Elijah was a man with a nature like
ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the
earth for three years and six months. He prayed again, and the sky gave rain,
and the earth brought forth its fruit. Brothers, if any among you wanders from
the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner
from the error of his way will save a soul from death, and will cover a
multitude of
God Is Always Willing To Forgive
Ezekiel 18/20-22
The soul who sins, he shall die: the son shall not bear the iniquity of the
father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son; the righteousness
of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on
him. But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he has committed, and keep
all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he
shall not die. None of his transgressions that he has committed shall be
remembered against him: in his righteousness that he has done he shall live.
