When Believers Persist in Unrepentant Sin
1 John 5:16 & 1 Cor. 11:27-31
1 John 5:16 says there is a sin that leads to death. Not spiritual death. Remember, this is talking to believers here. But actual, physical death.
When believers persist in unrepentant sin, like the false teacher Jezebel, and like those who are following her in Thyatira, Jesus will make them weak and then make them sick, and if He has to, He will make them dead.
Jesus says the same thing in Revelation 2:23: âAnd I will kill her children with death.â
If weâre unclear, itâs not just âkillâ itâs âkill with death.â
No confusion. This is a grave sin, and itâs infecting the rest of the church.
Jezebelâs students have gotten worse than the teacher, and Jesus will raise the temperature and burn out the infection to save the body.
The way the churches in America are today, you can be living in sin, sleeping with your boyfriend, and singing on stage, and nobody does anything about it because we preach tolerance.
Weâre all about love. But Jesus is all about holiness. And in His love, He wonât allow His body, the Church, to destroy itself.
The God of love doesnât give me aspirin for the symptoms.
He goes after the disease.
And when we tolerate disease running rampant in our local church, the intolerant Jesus does the only loving thing and burns it out.
