Brother Eli exposition about the two kinds of sin, "sin unto death" and "sin that is not unto death", provides a deeply enlightened understanding of God's justice and mercy.
This discussion is occurring in 1 John 5 vs 16 and Hebrews 10 vs 26, reminding us that while God is infinitely forgiving, there are limits to when sin is done truthfully and when we are in full knowledge of the truth.
Brother Eli made the emphasis that there is a big difference between sins committed unintentionally due to the weakness of human and those that are almost done deliberately. If we don't have any regard for commandments, I was particularly moved by a reference to Jesus teaching also in Matthew 18:22, where the Lord tells Peter that we have to forgive ourselves.
This shows how God values forgiveness, especially for those who fall because of weakness. We must encourage one another to forgive. We must appreciate that the same way God shows mercy on us, we must also forgive others too.
This explanation made me reflect on the importance of sincerity when it comes to repentance to forgiveness from God because that we must be humble, must possess a genuine heart, and must be willing to turn away from sin.
This teaching reminds us that God's mercy is for everyone as far as we are His children.
