My wife who is a "lukewarm" jDub, told me yesterday that the Pentecostals across the street from her mothers house, told her mother on Thursday that they saw her father walk up to the side gate (looked like he couldn't get in), and then walked up to the front door, and then vanish. The only thing is that my wifes father passed about a year and a half ago. Of course her jDub mother wouldn't listen to it, and my wife sort of made a light comment, probably to hear what I had to say. I told her how do you know that some sort of residule energy does not exist and that was not the spirit of your father? At that point she got pissed (probably remembering the jDub bullshit), and said thats not what the bible says. I ever so slightly said well maybe the bible is wrong, and the sky is the limit. Had to bite my tongue...
Anyway, the Pents across the street have never tried to convert them, her father has passed for more than a year and this is the first time they mentioned anything, and they are basically sane people, nice house, etc. They said they saw him on Thursday clear as day and my wifes brother was actually coming into town on Friday (been a while since he's been here). Interesting to say the least.
Lets pretend the Bible is for real, it does mention encounters with spirits such as those with Saul. Although Jehoba forbids it. I really think its sad that if another plane of existance is out there that the words of the Jewish religion keep people from looking deeper into it.
