Is it wrong to keep praying over and over for healing, if God has not healed you?

- [Terry] Okay, Pat,the first question comes
from Madison, who says,
"Is it wrong to keep prayingover and over for healing
"if God has not healed you?"
- That's exactly,
you say is it wrong,
you know, Jesus taughtexactly that's what you do.
It's Greek present, keep on asking,
keep on knocking, keep on believing,
keep on trusting, keep on asking.
He gave the story about the unjust judge
and the woman who came to him
and kept on askinguntil she got an answer.
Well now when God says,okay, you've got it,
then started praising Him, okay?
But in the meantime,it's Greek present-tense,
keep on knocking, keep on asking,
and the door will be opened.
Okay?
- This is Olivia who says,"Pat, wouldn't it be better
"to give each family a million dollars
"instead of all funds goingto the infrastructure bill?
"Giving each family a sizable amount
"would increase spending,add to tax revenue,
"and would cost less."
- Well that's nice, but actually,
what we really want 'emdo with the money is that
stripped down business wherethey'll build the roads
and build the bridges, andbuild a high speed internet,
and all the things we need
instead of all those social programs.
But yes, it would probably be just as well
with the social press.
It would be just as wellto go in the helicopter
and throw thousand dollarbills out the window.
So it really is gonna be wasted.
But the part oninfrastructure, you don't want
to give that away.
All right.
- This is Melinda who says, "Hi, Pat.
"Throughout the years,I've heard you explain
"about the end times andthat there isn't going
"to be a rapture before the tribulation.
"When Jesus returns, it willbe for the thousand-year reign.
"What do you do with the1 Thessalonians 4:16?
"Where does this fit withinthe timeline in Revelation?"
- Well, look, I believe in the rapture.
The rapture means it'sfrom the word rapio,
means I snatch.
And the Lord says when, in the last times
there'll be a trumpet calland He will send His angels
to the four corners ofthe earth that He might,
He'll take His beloved to be with Him.
So I believe in a raptureand I believe it'll happen.
The question is this teaching that says
there's going to be a pre-tribulation
before there's any tribulation,we'll be caught up,
and then there'll be seven years,
and so that isn't scriptural.
The Bible says at thelast trump and the Bible
also says immediately afterthe tribulation of those days
then will appear the signof the Son of Man in heaven.
And He will gather His elect
from the four corners of the earth.
It's after that you're not pre.
And the idea that's being taught now comes
out of a prophecy that some woman gave,
young woman, years ago andit just isn't scriptural.
I'm sorry, all right.
- This is David whosays, "If HR-1 is passed,
"how can Republicans winan election that can be won
"by creating ballots that,under the Constitution,
"should not be counted?
"However, even if HR-1 is defeated,
"Arizona, Georgia,Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,
"and Michigan have already discovered how
"to circumvent their statelegislator's voting laws
"and have yet to be fully exposed.
"What can America, that we all know
"and love, do to survive?"
- Well, what you can dois vote your legislature
and that's the most important thing.
The Constitution gives most of this stuff
to the state legislatures.
But I, I hate to think that the truth is
we, we, as America, HR-1doesn't do all the stuff
that you said, but what itdoes is allow absentee ballots,
and that's the danger.
Absentee ballots givento people who don't,
you don't know who theyare, can't identify them,
that's where fraud comes in.
All right.
- Hey, this is JM who says,"Is it a sin to have relations
"with a man, even though Inever wanted to get married
"to him or have children with him?"
- Is it sin to haverelations without a man?
You don't wanna get--?
- [Terry] With a man.
- I believe they call that fornication,
the last time I read the Bible.
Is it a sin?
Yes.
If you really love him thatmuch, why don't you get married?
What's, what's keepingyou from being married?
But yes, it is a sin to, to do that
and I don't (chuckling)
I don't know where you get your theology
but it isn't in the Bible, all right?
