My awesome, Grandchildren, and Annika, Kaleigh, Kate, Gavin; whom I love and pray for every day: “Is anyone among you suffering? LET HIM PRAY. Is anyone cheerful? LET HIM SING PSALMS. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And THE PRAYER OF FAITH WILL SAVE THE SICK, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. CONFESS YOUR 1FAULTS TO ONE ANOTHER, and PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER, that you may be healed.” (James 5:13-16) 1paraptōma: a stumbling. These we confess to one another. The Greek word for sin is hamartia: a sin, failure. These we ONLY confess to God.
Man does not confess his sins to another man because WE CANNOT FORGIVE SINS. ONLY GOD CAN FORGIVE US FOR OUR SINS. CONFESS YOUR SINS TO GOD, who ONLY can forgive them, and YOUR FAULTS TO ONE ANOTHER. If you have offended your friend or neighbor, you are to acknowledge your wrong, and it is their duty to forgive you. Then you are to seek the forgiveness of God, because the one you have wounded is the property of God, and in injuring them you have sinned against his Creator…
THE EFFECTIVE, FERVENT PRAYER OF A RIGHTEOUS MAN AVAILS [exerting power] MUCH…(James 5:16)
Notice: […We must understand that the bible says:] “…THE PRAYER OF FAITH WILL SAVE THE SICK, and the Lord will raise him up.” !!!] That’s for you: Stephanie, Ethan, Camden, Olivia, Aidan, Landon, Kinsley, Annika, Kaleigh, Kate, Gavin…
