First of all, I thank you for your kind words, and also for your inquiry concerning the rich man and Lazarus. It's a very deep subject, butone that is also very enlightening. One of the best discussions on this is an article by J.Preston Eby. A very long read, but also excellent teaching. You can find it on this link: http://godfire.net/eby/abrahams.html.You're a blessed woman! "Blessed are they that do hunger and thirst after righteousness". This, to me, is one of the truest signs of a believer: that they dig deep for more and more enlightenment. We all have our opinions, but only truth ever satisfies our thirst.Keep at it, dear sister!MARY E. ADAMS
