2ND CHRONICLES 7:14 English Standard Version IF My PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. The context of this verse is between 2nd CHRONICLES 7:1- 2ND CHRONICLES 2ND CHRONICLES 7:22 GOD IS SPECIFICALLY ANSWERING SOLOMON, REGUARDING HIS PRAYER. LETS BREAK THIS DOWN. 2ND CHRONICLES 7-14 HAS A LIST OF 4 CONDITIONS IN ORDER TO HAVE YOUR SINS FORGIVEN AND YOUR LAND HEALED HERE ARE THE CONDITIONS. #1, IF YOU HUMBLE YOURSELF. #2, IF YOU PRAY. #3, IF YOU SEEK HIS FACE #4, IF YOU TURN FROM YOUR WICKED WAYS. IF YOU DO THESE THINGS THEN YOU CAN BE FORGIVEN. DOES THAT SOUND LIKE THE GOSPEL OF GRACE, DOES THAT SOUND LIKE THE GOSPEL? NO. HERE IS CONDITION #5, 2ND CHRONICLES 7:19. English Standard Version “But if you turn aside and forsake my statutes and my commandments that I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and worship them, CONSEQUENCES, FOR NOT MEETING THE CONDITIONS. 2ND CHRONICLES 7:20 English Standard Version then I will pluck you up from my land that I have given you, and this house that I have consecrated for my name, I will cast out of my sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples. WOW, IF YOU SAY THAT THIS IS FOR CHRISTIANS ✝️, THEN YOU ARE SAYING WE MUST KEEP THESE STATUTES AND COMMANDS, OR OUR SINS WONT BE FORGIVEN, AND THAT GOD WILL DESTROY THE TEMPLE BECAUSE OF OUR SINS. HOW COULD THIS EVEN BE IF THERE IS NO JEWISH TEMPLE RIGHT NOW, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY WE ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW. IS THIS CHRISTIANITY OR JUDIISM. IF YOU BEEN DECEIVE, YOU MUST COME TO THE TRUTH. THIS VERSE IS NOT FOR CHRISTIANS., NOR DOES IT APPLY TO US IN THE SLIGHTEST WAY. IT IS ONLY GOOD FOR LEARNING, AND CORRECTING THOSE WHO TRY TO TWIST IT FOR THEIR OWN GAIN. THIS VERSE DOES NOT EVEN APPLY TO JEWS TODAY, THE ONLY WAY FOR JEWS TO HAVE THEIR SINS FORGIVEN IS THROUGH BELIEVING IN JESUS CHRIST. YES IT IS TRUE THAT GOD CAN HAVE HIS BLESSINGS UPON A LAND. FOR EXAMPLE LIKE, Berean Standard Bible JEREMIAH 29:7 Seek the prosperity of the city to which I have sent you as exiles. (PRAY TO THE LORD ON ITS BEHALF), for if it prospers, you too will prosper.” There is no need to take what the Lord Spoke to JEWISH PEOPLE UNDER THE LAW, and apply it to THE CHRISTIANS UNDER GRACE. . HERE GOES ANOTHER ONE, YOU MUST NOT SAY TO THE CHRISTIAN'S, THE LORD SAID I KNOW THE PLANS THAT I HAVE FOR YOU, WHEN THE LORD DID NOT SAY THAT, OR TELL YOU TO SAY THAT. JEREMIAH 29:11 English Standard Version FOR I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. CONTEXT JEREMIAH 29:1-29:23 English Standard Version JEREMIAH 29:1-29:23 THESE ARE THE WORDS OF THE LETTER THAT JEREMIAH THE PROPHET SENT FROM JERUSALEM (TO THE SURVIVING ELDERS OF THE EXILES, AND TO THE PRIESTS, THE PROPHETS, AND ALL THE PEOPLE whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. ?, ARE YOU A JEW, WERE YOU AN EXILE? IN THE DAYS OF JEREMIAH. WE'RE YOU SENT INTO CAPTIVITY FOR 70 YEARS. NO, THEN IT'S NOT FOR YOU. DO NOT TAKE WHAT WAS WRITTEN TO THE JEWISH AS IF IT WAS FOR YOU, DO NOT APPLY THIS TO CHRISTIANS. PLEASE ALSO SEE MALACHI 1:1 New International Version MALACHI 1:1 A prophecy: The word of the LORD to Israel through Malachi. THE WORD OF THE LORD TO ISREAL THROUGH MALACHI HOW HARD IS IT TO UNDERSTAND THAT, IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT IT IS NOT FOR CHRISTIANS . BUT FALSE TEACHERS LIKE IT BECAUSE THEY CAN USE IT TO COLLECT TITHES, NOT ALL TEACHERS WHO USE THAT VERSE ARE FASE CONVERTS, THEY ARE JUST IN ERROR, AND NEED TO BE CORRECTED THERE FAVORITE VERSE IS New International Version MALACHI 3:8 “Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob me. “But you ask, ‘How are we robbing you?’ “In tithes and offerings. King James Bible MALACHI 3:9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. A CHRISTIAN CANNOT BE CURSED. New International Version GALATIANS 3:13 (Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, )for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.” That was of the law, but CHRIST REDEEMED US FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW MALACHI 3:9 SAYS EVEN THIS WHOLE NATION, SURELY OT US, THAT WAS 2000 YEARS AGO, (WHEN HE SPECIFICALLY SAID. THIS WHOLE NATION)
