    So, do you ever "correct" someone who says this at a funeral? Seems to me they just need to hear comforting words, and it might be better not to give them a theology lesson at that poinr.

    Just the other day, without really thinking, I responded to that statement by saying "God doesn't "take' people, but He does 'receive" them."

    And then I added that it is the devil who steals, kills and destroys.

    You'll like this one VW. This was about '05 or so in teaching at the Bible college in my Divine Healing class. So one girl in the class, since I was teaching it's always God's will to heal and that he doesn't 'take' people brought up Keith Green. She said to me something along the lines of, 'Melody Green said the Lord told her that He took Keith because of so and so..." (can't remember what it was now). Then she says, "You don't believe God said that to her?" And I boldly said "No. I don't believe God told her that." And the second I said that she basically screamed out loud something like "WHAAAAAT?!!! HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?!!!" or something along those lines. I mean she went nuts.

    Having said that, that wasn't an uncommon occurrence in my healing classes with how strong I taught divine healing.

    A lot of these situations where tragedy happens are simple prayer "failures", or rather, a lack of it.

    Glory to God!

    I just got corrected by the Holy Ghost!

    (So much for answering without thinking...)


    Genesis 5:24
    And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.









    This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity (futility) of their mind, having the understanding darkened...

    Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly...

    Better yet, I should have just read Troy"s article to begin with!...

    With all due respect to Melody and the late Keith Green who I have no doubt was a man of God, the idea that God would "take" Keith by killing him and hundreds of others in a plane crash truly does nothing to advance the gospel but rather hinders it and deters people from a God who would act in such cruelty.

    What about the others that was on that plane with Keith who were not saved and ended up in hell? What about the thousands, perhaps even millions more people that Keith Green could have reached through his music and ministry? Does anyone EVER think about these things when they make such asinine statements?
