LT,

Great analysis!

JC did say to let the dead bury the dead! Luke 9:60.

So by principle, as u said, let the dead Saul GO to the dead--in his case, to have the dead feed him and ultimately bury him.

What a mind you have!

It must come from your enlarged 'heart'!!!!smile

With the Hug of Love,
Atoz

Hi atoz,

1Sa 28:10 And Saul sware to her by the LORD, saying, [As] the LORD liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.

The Lord kept Saul's oath as not to discredit his own name.
So basically Saul bound God by an oath in God's name that God wouldn't destroy her.

whatsover thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven..maybe kind of thing...?
nevertheless God kept his name clean..for his own name's sake.

and also through that oath came a lot of blessings like the one about feeding the least of these my brethren.. Wink
She was being christian and didn't even know it.. Very Happy

Least that's how I'm seeing it..

hugs
lone

Hi Xi!

Based on Mt 25:40,

Inasmuch as we pray to Mary, we pray to God and JC.

Who wd you consider to be the least important person to pray to?

That least person is JC.

Please read 1 Thes 4:8-10 and 1 John 4:20.

Willing to pray in Love
to the doorkeeper who keeps the Door that JC is,ps 84:10
to the Door that JC is that leads to the Father,
to God The Father who is The Door to JC The Son,mt 11:27

LT,

I am changing your name to Lady In Red!

Why?

You are amazing!

U said lots of what I was gonna say! Smile

U see layers,

I see facets like on a diamnond: each face gives us a different view of the same person!

That witch from tekoah was spiritually dead in one facet,

Spiritually alive thru another facet--implied by her actions and by the fact that God did not kill her for whatever reason: Saul's oath--mt 16:18 or her attitude of Love--- which makes her a Witch in Love!A live witch! A Love Witch! Practicing that Black Magic that she wove so well! Smile u know that song by Frankie, I am sure!smile

All of which just proves that what God was really against: the sin ofHa(red in witchcraft, in race-relations, in killing, in every and any thing! Btw, did u know that Joseph was also a Diviner? In Divine Love, of course.smile

Anyway, Lady in Red, you have an amazing maze of a brain in Love!smile
So no wonder that u're amazing!
Sigh

With a bear hug of Love,
Atoz

You think atoz,
God knew her heart..and didn't judge her by her "dead works"?

U know it!smile

As a fav singer of mine says:

It's time to know, not only believe or think!smile

Romans 4:
6Even as David also
describeth the blessedness of the man,
unto whom
God imputeth righteousness without works,

1 Samuel 16:
7But the LORD said unto Samuel,

Look not on his countenance,
or on the height of his stature;
because I have refused him:
for the LORD seeth not as man seeth;
for man looketh on the outward appearance,
but
the LORD looketh on the heart.

So if I have been working,
but I haven't been loving in heart,1 Cor 13:2
my works ain't working!smile

in the Love that makes work work,smile

Hi James,

Happy Thanxgiving!

"All things are ready,
if our minds be so.
"
Henry V. iv, 3

Hoping you won't get
is why
you didn't get it in the first place---nor in the end!smile

[There are none who so don't get it as those whose minds are unwilling to get it:

For instance:
2 Peter 3:
5For this they willingly are ignorant of,
that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:

But when a person first has a ready and willing mind:

Example:
10And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea:
who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.

11These were more noble than those in Thessalonica,
in that they received the word with all readiness of mind,

and searched the scriptures daily,
whether those things were so.

12Therefore many of them believed;
also of honourable women which were Greeks,
and
of men,
not a few.

In Willing Love for
the coalition of the willing
and
for the coalition of the unwilling,
atoz

When a person leaves the will of God (as Saul did), there is no more protection from satan's deceptions.

Satan's doctrine of man having an 'Immortal soul'...will lead many unto their own destruction, for all eternity.

WOW , lots of replies Very Happy

On the matter of Jesus speaking to someone whose passed. He's the Son of God, I think hes exempt from the whole not talking to anyone dead. For the life of me I can't give a single reason why but its just safe to say "Because hes God" Razz

Edit:I'm sure theres many reasons why and they're listed somewhere in the Bible, forgive me, I'm new. Razz

Eccl. 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

9:6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any [thing] that is done under the sun.


Psalms 88:10 Wilt thou show wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise [and] praise thee? Selah.

Psalms 115:17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.

Hi atoz!
I don't see what you are getting at in Matt 25:40.
While I may serve these people, and in turn serve Jesus, I don't pray to them.

Also, Mary refers to herself several times as the Lord's servant. Never as the Lord's mother.......hmmmm.................
