Title: Eternal Punishment
Post by: Craig on May 13, 2006, 11:04:20 AM
Dear Ray,
I was somewhat surprised, on reading your three articles, that you make no mention of King Saul's great sin.
He got a medium to summon the ghost of Samuel, who before telling the king what God thought of him, asked why he had been awakened.

In light of what you say in your articles, I think it only fair that you tell your readers about necromancy, which since God has outlawed it, we know exists.

When the soul dies the body rots and the spirit returns to God, where it
awaits the day of judgemnt in an unconscious state, unless it is awakened
prematurely as in the case of Samuel.

Yours sincerely,
Peter


Dear Peter:

Samuel was unconscious and DEAD during that whole Witch of Endor scenario.  Our "spirit" does not have consciousness upon death. No witch or demon has the power to bring a dead person back to life. God uses "LYING SPIRITS" to comune with evil people such as Saul (See I Kings 22:22-23 & II Chron. 18:22-23).

God be with you,

Ray
