Howdy! Welcome to the Forum. I assume you're asking about resurrection of the dead but you don't give us any details or scriptures. Can you give us a little more to go on? What particular aspects of the subject do you wish to discuss? You might benefit by inserting those words "resurrection dead" in the Quick Search at the right of your screen and you'll recall several posts on that subject. God bless. --Rowdy | ||||||

Rowdy, my first post and I wasn'tfamiliar yet. Ressurection of the dead is only one particular question. The biggest question is how I can cope with listening to what I believe are some very serious bible scholars, walking with the Lord much longer than I, and listening to them say things that I cannot find in scripture. That places me in a dangerous frame of mind. Leaning upon myself can and is hazardous, and yet I look for the way out. This is why I reached out through this forum. Everyone should be available to be accountable, yet I fear them labeling me a troublemaker, and they generally don't take the time to make themselves accountable to everyone--they can't, they are justifiably quite busy. But my issues go to what they are telling the flock. I am desiring a one on one opportunity for brotherly feedback to help me remove this conviction from me. The alternative is to stand alone, which we all know is not the Lord's command or will. Check my posting to Hank regarding Elijah. I also need to clear up the entire discussion of scriptural evidence about death. The more I pore over the Word, the deeper the questions. My only stumbling is why the pastors cannot address my issues and questions, and what happens to my weak faith and heart when I find myself wanting to sit them down and give them a lesson? That has all the signs of pointing to me as the problem, and so I cast my bread upon the waters to my fellow brothers in Christ to lend me their hand and hearts and walk me through this. Other alternatives are question them openly, as I ALMOST did one night at my church when the guest pastor made a comment. I was in my chair and just blurted out the words "No he didn't" and it was out loud enough for folks to look my direction. I quieted down very quickly and began to mind my own business, yet nevertheless, the scriptures speak for themselves, and I am surrounded daily with those who desire to preach what they like, as opposed to what is written. If I am blinded, then I wish my eyes opened. If I am wrong or misunderstanding, then I seek correction leading to my salvation, yet I cannot find a way to compromise, and I know that I can put this forth to fellow Sons of the Father to help me find my way. In faith and love of God, Your Brother, David (bestmrb@cs.com) | ||||||

Do you have specific questions and scriptures from the NT on this issue of "resurrection of the dead?" I acknowledge what we see in the OT but since we have no such kind of miraculous powers ourselves in this dispensation with the NT, it behooves us to stick with guidance as given in the NT. Also if you've read my profile, I do like to give preference to NT issues and concerns. As far as the rest of your post, it just sounds like a personality clash. Don't get too concerned about it. I've also had such clashes in my life and most of us just learn to be patient with that kind of person. AND they (most at least) learn to be patient with me. Remember, "if it doesn't kill you, you're made all the stronger for it." I'm afraid almost all of us have learned to make certain compromises in our lives. What can you do when you run into a brick wall? Seems life is but a series of bumps into such walls and learning to get around them, under or over them somehow. Go with God and pray constantly. God bless. --Rowdy |
