Is it possible that the dead can call the living?

*doing so

*doing so

but do you think the people who said they got the phone call are telling the truth ??

If you’re religious, then you can research it in the bible. It tells you that the dead know nothing, they cease to exist. So, no, the dead cannot call you, or make contact. Other entities (demons for example) may trick you, and have you believe that a dead loved one is contacting you, but, once you’re dead, you’re dead. This info is coming from religious research, not personal opinion by the way :)

The bible doesnt say that, I’d double check your research and not all religious people are Christian so two incorrect statements in kne answer, that’s a record

the bibke does say that about ghost. look it up on. what does the bible say about ghost? Just type that in and u will get the verses. But ur right not every religious person is christian.

But it doesn’t say the spirits cant communicate

The spirits that are mentioned in the bible are demons or angels. they can communicate.(2 Corinthians 11:14-15), we are told how these demonsare able to appear or disguise themselves as“angels of light” and “servants of righteousness.” Because of this u can assume that a demon could appear to someone as the spirit of a deceased person–especially that of a loved one–if it helped the demon to carry out its evil doings. Hebrews 9:27 says we are to die once and after that face judgement. No in between. Mark 5:1-20 They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gerasenes. 2 And when Jesus had stepped out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit. 3 He lived among the tombs. And no one could bind … Demons possesed a man and used the man to haunt a grave yard. Demons only look to k!ll, and destroy and steal. They will do anything to decieve people and lead them away from God

Moses and Elijah on the Mt. of Transfiguration were demons? Interesting.

I agree with you for the most part, but it is entirely possible for a medium to make “contact”. However, if you also notice this practice is forbidden. Why? Because it works, but it is not our job. It is God’s job. Samuel was brought up. There was no demon. However, he wasn’t supposed to be brought up.

It’s not forbidden because it works. It’s forbidden because it can take advantage of people who BELIEVE it works.

there are multiple possibilities how you could of received a call from that phone. Can the dead really contact the living? That’s up to the person to decide if they believe in such things. Personally, I believe it is possible.

Chantygirl is wrong about what the Bible says. Scripture tells us that those who are in Heaven are actually more alive than we are. Jesus tells us that God, the god of Abraham and Isaac, is not the god of t he dead, but of the living. Therefore, if God is the god of the living, and Abraham and Isaac are no longer alive in this world, then they MUST be alive, spiritually.

It is definitely possible that those who have passed from this life can call those still in this world. How else could sightings of Mary and the other saints be explained?

If the dead know that you can help them then yes they can and will.

The Bible tells us that when we die, we go to sleep…we sleep until resurrection. People who talk to the dead are fooled into thinking they are speaking to the dead but they are actually calling up spirits/demons who present themselves as people. There is an example of this in the Scriptures. 1Samuel28:7-21. Saul went to a woman to call on the sleeping Samuel. She did this and when the real Samuel (God woke the real Samuel), and not just a demon pretending to be Samuel she was shocked and afraid….because she knew she did not have the power to do so but God let it happen so that Saul can be punished for his disobedience.
