Bible Note: Hi Nicholson... In reading the post from #7801 All the explanations seem to lack scriptural soundness. 1. Denies that souls can be summoned. However, here scripture gives no statement or even leaves room for assumption that this is not real and that Samuel did not actually come forth. A lying wonder 2 The second view states that this was a denomic spirit impersonating Samuel. This too is an unscriptural assumption. (based on context) 3.God allowed Samuel to come forth through the medium... Let's clarify one thing here...a medium is someone who summons spirits to embody them...Saul did not see Samuel on the medium who had Samuel's conciousness... She screeched because she recognized Saul and thought he was going to kill her. Were there other instances where mediums satanic powers are verified? None of the 'possibilities' allow for Satan actually having authority due to the fall of Adam yet scripture here seems to leave no other possible conclusion. Do you have more scripture I can use to study this issue deeper? All input appreciated..I will leave for awhile but will be back soon. God bless |
