Amen
'Not if those memories involved a little something with a hot girlfriend. haha"
hmm, you've got a point lol.
"I think the battlefields would more likely be time related or evil entities attracted to suffering."
Yeah but on this one ghost program this guy (hunting ghosts, what else?) was standing on what was the battlefield of Gettysburg at night with a tape recorder and he said something like "have you heard of General Robert E. Lee?" and there was a very distinct reply of yes, though it sounded more like "yuush". It was slightly fast like those clips.
Ahem, That's a sure way to make things better,
Greater is He that is within you than he that is in the world
bttt
the Zuzims
I never mention hot girlfriends, that was someone else, lol
That must be "Ghosthunters" They always manage to find something,lol
the Zuzims??
Yes. You'll have to find a Jewish folklorist to validate. I only read about it in their commentary
Two months prior to my wedding, my younger brother, then 20, was killed in a car accident. It happened on a Sunday morning and we buried him the following Wednesday. It was over Labor Day weekend in the midwest. The following weekend, probably about the same time as my brother's death but one week later, I was at my fiance's watching tv. We had no air conditioning and the windows were open. I don't know if you know the midwest but September can be hotter than August and there was literally no movement of air, no breeze happening. It was hot! I was about to fall asleep when all of a sudden it got freezing in the room. I was really scared. I said to my future husband, "Do you feel that? What is it?" He said, "I think it's your brother." I was so scared (I have never been as scared in my life as I was then nor since), I held his hand tightly and shut my eyes. He looked at the end of the room and said, "You can move on now. I'll take care of your sister from now on." Suddenly, the cold ended as suddenly as it had begun. Strangely, the room was just as hot as it had been and there was no residual breeze or temperature change from the cold that had entered the room. It was like stepping into a meat locker and then coming back into a normal room.
Although other family members have since died, I have had no other "visits" like this and consider myself a fairly rational person. The concept of my brother coming to me as a ghost isn't really part of my Christian education regarding death. I am not a ghost hunter and would freak out if something like this happened again.
can you sleep now? lol
My grandfather was in the hospital -- he was suffering from Alzheimers and had also broken his hip. My grandmother often stayed with us. A female friend of hers took her out to hear the symphony one night. At a precise time during the concert she turned to her friend and cried, "He is gone!" Sure enough, exactly at that time her husband of so many years had passed.
Haha, I may be sleeping with the tv on, even if I have to watch that crappy Dharma and Greg show.
lol. The Zuzims were related to the Rephaim, must be where the otherworldliness came in
cant they do a history of the hose an find out if something happened in the house long ago or is that not possible? I mean, when you buy a car you can get a list of all the previous owner, can you not do that when buying a house>
they do have laws now relating to full disclosure
Interesting scripture quotations you provided! I've had Christians tell me that the Bible says that there are no (spooky-type) ghosts. I don't know what passages they may be using to say this. Have any ideas?
I would't think anybody wouldn't know of Sparrows Point.
It was home to Maryland's largest employer at one time.
It was a company town that grew up around steel.
Regularly in the national news. I worked there at one time.
Secularists do not understand the why of the prayer that the dead may "rest in peace". The veil is quite thin which separates we the living from other dimensions. Nor, do they understand the importance of forgiveness and fighting and withstanding evil in our personal lives. Author Frank Peretti does a good job of portraying the veil, and the storylines on either side of the veil, IMHO.
