5 people that God wants us to avoid and not to help | Full Worship | Bishop Keith Reed Sr. | 2026

Описание: In this powerful sermon, Bishop Keith Reed Sr. challenges the common belief that Christians must help everyone. Drawing from Scripture, he explains that God commands us not to assist certain types of people to avoid enabling harmful behaviors. He discusses lazy individuals who refuse to work (2 Thessalonians 3), manipulators who lie and guilt-trip (Proverbs 12:22), repetitive fools who ignore wise counsel and repeat mistakes (Proverbs 23:9, 26:11), and quarrelsome people who create constant conflict (Proverbs 19:19). Pastor Roberts emphasizes setting boundaries to promote true transformation rather than temporary relief, urging believers to reflect on their own lives and avoid false guilt. This message is a call to biblical wisdom in relationships, both in the church and family.
Key Bible Verses:

2 Thessalonians 3:8-12 (On not assisting the unwilling to work)
Proverbs 12:22 (The Lord detests lying lips)
Proverbs 23:9 (Don't waste breath on fools)
Proverbs 26:11 (As a dog returns to its vomit, so fools repeat their folly)
Proverbs 19:19 (A hot-tempered person must pay the penalty)
Additional references: Proverbs 26:13-16 (Lazy excuses), Psalm 14:1 (The fool says there is no God), Luke/Matthew (Jesus refuses manipulation on inheritance)
