THINKING THAT ALL JESUS SAID APPLIES TO US HAS CONSEQUENCE

[DougE]

[Matthew 21:22 KJV] "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive."

What happens if someone thinks this verse applies to them and not to Israel as intended?

They have a loved one who is sick and they pray for and expect healing. but it doesn't happen

They are then told they didn't have enough faith, or they aren't following the Lord purely enough

They will tell a grieving person it was their fault their loved one wasn't healed just to maintain the belief that this verse is meant for them

Not rightly dividing the word of God has real world consequence

What Jesus says applies to everyone one earth, unless he specifically says otherwise when saying it. God "is no respecter of persons" and with God, "there is no shadow of turning." God wants the truth and same righteousness for everyone, regardless of who they are or what they believe or fail to believe.

You can think all Jesus said applies to you
Jesus said to forsake everything and sell all so is that for you?
