1 | IS LAZARUS AND THE RICH MAN A PARABLE | Luke 16:19 | SBoone | 156817 | ||
Have a great rest! Just one comment on the Samuel story. Saul went to a medium which God clearly says is detestable (Deut 18:10-15 ; Is 47:13,14) God refused to answer Sauls question (See vs 6). Immediately after Saul goes to the medium he is killed. I would say that even if I believed as you do in regard to state of the dead. I would have a hard time thinking God would allow a medium to call up a saint to give an answer God had refused to give. I believe Saul lost his life for speaking with demons. Again, If you believe that the dead are asleep you don't have to worry about whether or not a spiritualist could call up a saint with a special message for us. Such things are of the devil. Thank you for the discussion. You have made me think and challenge my own thoughts. Sleep well my friend. SBoone |

Greetings Sboone! Sorry for the delay my friend! I would agree with Mark's assessment of your position concerning Samuel. The text identifies the spirit as Samuel several times. If God meant for us to understand that the spirit was a demon, it would have been a simple matter for Him to have said so. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
