Hello!
Quick back story to fill you in--
When I was a teenager, I got into a lot... a LOT of youtube religious debates in the comments section until I realized that you cannot argue a person into belief. I pretty much vowed to never engage in these debates.
Fast foreword to now.
I was hyped, really hyped. I had spent the whole afternoon watching this new Christian public speaker.
On one of his youtube videos I saw a comment from an atheist and I couldn't take my eyes off it. Because I really felt the Lord calling me to do this, I responded. I got a respectable answer so I responded again. They're shutting down now- said some harsh things. Catching himself(or herself) saying that a god exists but defiantly not our God because the Bible was written by mortal men. He can't believe that we *know* God.
I've already responded but I really feel like God is calling me to keep responding. Which is new for me. When I was a kid, I'm sure more often then not I was just talking out my rear bumper.
So prayer for this soul. God says he doesn't want a single person to go to Hell. If that's what he wants, I want to see how close we can get.
Lord God, keeper of my soul, please, he/she doesn't know what they're giving up by desperately creating excuses to not follow your law. Please forgive them.... and in the name of Christ Jesus who died for this person, keep calling his name, give him the gift of faith. It is the only way we can protect the one valuable thing we have... our souls. You say that if we want a sin enough you'll hand us over to it. Dear Lord God, almighty in Heaven, do not hand them over, they do not understand what they are doing. Let your will be our will,
In Christ Jesus' name who died so that this person could live,
Amen
