You are very good at doubting. Only a true understanding of God, is through His teachings. One must study His Word. One must also sit in communion with God, through prayer and meditation. Through the Holy Spirit, one will find understanding and wisdom.

Shabby take a moment and read the scripture that you chose to use. Let the dead bury the dead.
You will see what Jesus was saying to this man. Not something I made up, it is fact. People like to take passages and interpret, without even looking at the whole picture. Jesus spoke in parables many times, but many times he spoke directly. With those with ears to hear, let them hear...

What you belief to be true is up to you. If youbelieve in God, read His Word. For in the Beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God.

Peace Shabby
