Life after death
lorrie:
Hi Every one-I just went to a funeral this last weekend it was my grandmas husband -she is 92. I overheard somone say that he was really struggling the last few weeks before he died concerning where he would go after he died,it occurred to me that must be torture of the mind.
I would have loved to have been there to tell him the truth!However i did try to tell family members at the funeral and they argued with me that the bible says people will go to hell no matter what.So i now know it will do no dood for me to say anything, it is completly between them and our Father.I also got a very strange reaction from my family when i let be known i am healed-the reaction was subdued as if they didnt want to believe what they where hearing nor seeing,weird!

Matt. 10:36
And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
Matt. 12:47-50
Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
Hope this helps Jaguar...I've been in the same boat for a year and a half now. Feels like being alone on an island huh? But you know who's on that island too? Our Father and brother, Jesus Christ! :D

Hi Jaguar,
Sorry to hear of your lose. I think people have built their ideas of what they believe from a complicated mesh mash of hearsay, myths, fairy tales and heresy they hear. They blend it all together and come up with these ridiculous beliefs they hold on to. When you introduce a bit of truth, it is pretty much impossible for them to fit it into what they understand, of course unless God is opening their eyes and then their house of cards begins to fall.
As for their subdued reaction to your being healed, well you did not go to one of those healing revivals and fall over backwards ;) If you have been speaking to some of them about this Truth, they probably think you are delusional. Even though our families may turn from us, not to fear, God will provide.
Mat 19:29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life.
mercy, peace and love

Isa 26:19 Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
Job 33:29 Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,
Job 33:30 To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.
Peace,
Joe

It amazes me everytime I have been to a funeral the priest or whoever is doing the speaking always tells the family of the decease that so and so is with God in a better place. Never this man is in hell where he's burning, because he was an evil person. You will never hear that, (I don't think you will). Anyway what's wrong with the truth. So and so is in the ground sleeping. He will be resurrected at the appropeit time. and one day he will be in the Kingdom. That sounds good to me.
