What is repetitive? **Pray**
|
|
|
|
Every verse has the word "pray" in it. This section is no doubt about prayer.
|
|
|
|
Suffering: All kinds!
|
|
- spiritual
|
|
- emotional
|
|
- financial
|
|
- etc.
|
|
|
|
There is the idea that we need to suffer with patience. (v10) -> how do you suffer with patience , with prayer (v13)
|
|
|
|
Spergian: If you have not prayed then you ... #TODO

Who is involved?
|
|
|
|
## Who is Involved
|
|
### The church
|
|
|
|
The assumption is that people are apart of the church. God does not want us to live as a lone individual.
|
|
|
|
Look at the whole NT, we are meant to be bear one another's burdens. We are meant to be in community!
|
|
|
|
### The Elders
|
|
|
|
Who are they?
|
|
- Ray
|
|
- Chris/(Raymond?)
|
|
- Lee
|
|
|
|
Hebrews verse about following the elders and how will give an account
|
|
|
|
### The Sick
|
|
|
|
- The people who feel overwhelmed.
|
|
- ~35min get others
|
|
The def of sick ^
|
|
|
|
All of us will feel beat down, overwhelmed! We have every right to call on the elders to pray over us!
|
|
|
|
## What is involved
|
|
|
|
#### Sick
|
|
It is the sicks responsibility to call the elders! Why? Because James says the sick should call the elders. It is not the job/responsibility of the elders to find the sick. This is not necessarily that this is a public event. This is meant to be a private affair.
|
|
|
|
#### Oil
|
|
Anointing with oil. The oil is not the "healing" factor.
|
|
|
|
- The oil could be medicinal
|
|
- The good Samaritan
|
|
- Sacramental
|
|
- King David
|
|
- Symbolic
|

|
All of the above requires faith! V15 -> "offered in faith"
|
|
|
|
##### Prayer

Let Ray know what our thoughts are about this passage, specifically v14-15
|
|
|
|
This is a very difficult passage.
|
|
|
|
What is we do this and it fails?
|
|
~ Better to try in faith and fail then never believe in the lord #transcript |
