Why can you not talk to your mom what stops you ?
If your mom died in the Lord Jesus then there is nothing that should stop you from talking to your mom because the dying part is only the Temple of the Holy Spirit she herself really didn't die.
Only true death can separate you from God and that is by being cast into hell.
If it is against the law of God to speak to someone whose Temple has died then Jesus could not have talked to Lazareth. For he would be breaking his own law.
And again we see in the New Testament or Paul is talking a man dies and Paul raises him back to life. If the person was truly dead Paul would never been able to raise the person back to life because it would have been against the law of God.
So you see those who have passed on are still alive in Christ.
And for those of you that are fearful of being called Catholic these things that happen with Jesus and Paul happened well before the Catholic Church ever was established
Sometimes Bill, your response to my Posts, make me think that you think I am in need and unhappy. Now that is making me think you do not know the "Language" of Eternal Life. For I am in want for nothing. And it also makes me think you are not in tune with the writers of The "Psalms" and the flavor of The KJV given to us by "William Tyndale" into the English Language. For His Gift of Language [Tongues} in 7 Tongues is from GOD, and the flavor of expression too!
For Jesus did say this, and he does not lie,
"There is a judge for the one who rejects Me and does not receive My words: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it. And I know that His command leads to eternal life. So
I speak exactly what the Father
has told Me to say.”…
I have been walking this path for over 44 years! And did my own homework ,and not seeking the Doctrine of men or an institutionalize Church.
And concerning the art of speech in speaking among hundreds or thousands empowered by The Spirit of the Living GOD,, either, Impromptu, Outline text, or no Script. On any subject that is "Biblical related" One reason the "Presbytery" Ordain me. before i was 30 years old. Not my will, they place upon me to present, Sermons, Lectures, Funerals, Weddings Baptizing New converts, Lord Supper's, Counseling, Sunday school teaching, youth and adults, Wednesday Night classes, Conventions, pastors counsels, Conferences, speaking at this events, Easter Services always giving the last words of Christ. So i had to study as well. That is why i never copies another person work and use them as my own or their advice. But the Word of GOD was and always has been my source of information and not the words of another man.! But of course when i did not know what a word meant. I had to use Lexicons, ISBE, throughout grammar school we were taught to go the source. and if used, document it. And the Bible has backed that up! But most christians i found out, copy other people work and the words that came out of their pastors mouths and not the unadulterated Words of GOD! And by doing so they think other people are just like them, but i got news for many, there is a few, are not like them.
!
These words of GOD that came forth from His Mouth and they became a part of my being in the year 1977. and had become a part of me!
“Is not My word like fire,” declares the LORD, “and like a hammer that smashes a rock?”
“Therefore behold,” declares the LORD, “I am against the prophets who steal from one another words they attribute to Me.” “Yes,” declares the LORD, “I
am against the prophets who wag their own tongues and proclaim, ‘The LORD declares it.’ ”…

And i prayed everyday for over 20 years< Lord please do not let me be, one of these type of preachers, please Lord, I would see and hear how they sold sermons to one another, and I would cry, please Lord , keep me from being like them. I always thought if GOD called me since 1977 He is going to give me something to say and how to say it. No matter what the people may think, of what i should say or how i should say it! And many have fuel out threatening of what i have said and how i have said, and only have told a story of what GOD had said in "The Bible" and used the very exact words He used. For many did not know such stories was in the Bible, And many had read the very same words and did not know they had read those very words
Many apologize, many didn't
But my God had warn me already before these events took place. My wife use to attacked me with words of the Bible, And finally one day in time, i told her what you have been quoting is not what you think it means. Quietly, I explain first that she had the skills and the education, easy to be a college professor in the "English" Language. She got quiet and she begin to listen. I pull out a "KJV' study Bible by Oxford press, and went to the Location of the quoted verse of scripture she has used against me for a long time. And I told her to read the context of The Letter and do not pay attention to the verses at all but begin at the Paragraph. for a good translation have the paragraph markings. She set there quietly and read. All of the sudden, she slam that book so hard and hurled my $100 plus bible threw the air from the family room to other side of the kitchen. And said they have been teaching me a lie, since i been a kid in these churches. Having me quoting this stuff that is not true. It was not the the 1st time she found out that was not true that the Institutional church, universally have taught. She learn these thing since marrying me, in 1989. I did not teach her anything I just went to the bible and told her to read. And take her time. And when she did not know what the Biblical word really meant, go to the "ISEB". and look it up. Seek no other sources, and stay away from my "commentaries" until she really understands the true nature of "Bible commentaries". and i think by knowing the truth has hurt her. concerning the church, because she is a person that loves organizations. Hurting her concerning the church, meaning, she is afraid of really reading the Bible and scared of seeing The Real Truth. And that it will turn her against it. For she Had said at one point in her life, she used to enjoy going to church. But now she pays attention to every word spoken and critique them, whether the words and how they are phrase are true in relating to the Bible, and it is less enjoyable now, she claims. She said i mess her up. And i should have married another person. And every now and then she would say, i met a women who thinks about GOD just like you do. You needed a wife just like her. After 30 years together i know what to say and what not to say.
PS. My meaning of talking with my Mother in the depth of GOD. Means I have found no one who can go that deep and understand the depth-ness of the express of the Almighty "The Tetragrammaton ". in the place I like and lone to dwell in! And Enjoy it! Most Christians look and speak concerning the things of this world, and know nothing about communicating as it was a nature thing, speaking in "Anthropomorphic word form' pertaining to Heavenly things, that is of True existence, when all that exist will be done away. the real and true heavenly Language, the language that will not pass away, the Language that will be spoken around the "Coronation Table", that will remain for ever and ever and never pass away!
For there is nothing on this earth that pleases me. Once you have tasted the Heavenly's, how could anyone on this earth in this realm have even a hint of satisfaction here. My desirer is not to speak to my mother or even see her, My desire is the loneliness of the "Koinonia" we would share as we spoke about GOD! Our eyes and the countenance of our face would Glo bright. And it would seem the inside of our being would be shining like a light.
For i have found in these days there very few travelers that even desirers such a place or even know that there is such a place in GOD! Most i have found among a host of Christians they are like "wells without water" they are no more than people that express common words into a religious conversation. 'lines with no electricity'. And the sadness of the fact they do not know they have become like "dead men bones". And they try to be creative with words, "sails without wind" for this they have become. They have taken on the garments of earthly counselors and compel many to follow them in these footsteps, Advertising for them to appear at their doors. " Is there not A GOD IN ISRAEL"! Is HIS arms so short, He cannot help?
(Jeremiah).
"The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
I, the LORD, search the heart; I examine the mind to reward a man according to his way, by what his deeds deserve. Like a partridge hatching eggs it did not lay is the man who makes a fortune unjustly. In the middle of his days his riches will desert him,
and in the end he will be the fool.”…
