I enjoyed reading this. I must have missed the prior related articles. A couple of things stand out for me.
"...I believe if God doesn’t want us to pray for someone or something and if we are seeking His will, He will make us mute so we cannot pray for them."
I am sure that God certainly can do this, but really we are able to reason on who to pray for, and where to plant our seeds of the good news. throwing pearls to swine comes to mind. Matt 7:6 And Christ even said "...If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven." -john 20:23
There is a huge difference when people are repentent, or if they are simply ignorant and do not know right and wrong. Jesus said to forgive your (repentent) brother 77 times. -Matt 18:22. And yet there is a difference when someone who knows better tramples on the holy spirit of God, as Christ said “On this account I say to YOU, Every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven. -Matt 12:31. This is in relation to the second death -rev 2:11 or gehenna -Matt 5-22, that is not the hell they teach in most of the churches.
Another part that stood out for me:
"...He says that those who want to live must submit to Babylon."
And at that time, God said not to go down to egypt. I find that falling away to Babylon and steering clear of egypt have prophetic meaning for our time.
Appreciate your writting and sharing as you seek the truth. We should all do this.
