‘Resurrection’ Asks If It Is Possible To Return From The Dead

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
The Friday, March 9, 2014, premiere of ABC-TV’s “Resurrection” was a refreshing twist in both paranormal style and story line that eats away at the very basis of its audience’s fear of death.
Photo: Landon Gimenez plays Jacob Langston, the 8-year-old who died 32 years earlier, but returns home one day as though no time has passed. The show airs Sunday nights on ABC at 9 p.m. ET.
Hollywood is thick with death scenarios from murder to the now popular zombie phenomena. But what if our dead suddenly returned? How would a typical small town couple respond if the 8-year-old child they lost to drowning 32 years ago suddenly showed up on their doorstep as if no time had elapsed?
The fictional story is well played with all the right common sense barriers pitted against a reality that someone might just survive death and return to an apparently normal life as an exact duplicate of the body they left behind. What we don’t know – keeping the audience on the end of their seats – is what the writers have coming.
A cute and cuddly kid wanting his room and toys back is one thing – but the adults have a lot of questions he can’t seem to answer. Where has he been these past 32 years? How did he stay preserved? What does he know about death and dying to comfort the living. And my personal question – what would we find if we open his grave?
The show is descended from the French television version – “The Returned” – its season one with eight episodes now available on Netflix.
Having watched the entire French version, and this one “Resurrection” episode, I can say that the two versions overlap in basics – but it appears the larger story line is different. The English subtitles in the French version did not bother me as the script, casting and setting were so good the language barrier dissolved and I quickly developed a need for a baguette and some cheese during the show.
Take the “Resurrection” first episode main 8-year-old character recently returned from the dead. Both series use the character in their opening episode, but change the plot line. I won’t say anymore. Both shows are immediately edgy.
“Resurrection” is well cast, including Omar Epps as J. Martin Bellamy, Frances Fisher as Lucille Langston, Matt Craven as Sheriff Fred Langston, Devin Kelley as Maggie Langston, Mark Hildreth as Pastor Tom Hale, Samaire Armstrong as Elaine Richards, Sam Hazeldine as Caleb Richards, Landon Gimenez as Jacob Landston – and my favorite – Kurtwood Smith as Henry Langston.

Where does a persons memory go to die…
Good question. I sometimes watch Long Island Medium and I must admit I’m fascinated. There are people who can exchange with the departed, I have a friend who has that gift although she doesn’t use it ’cause she’s terrified of what she can channel. I believe that for some time we must retain our memories until we’re pitched back into another human life to finish the lessons we didn’t get to fully understand the last time around.
We definitely return. Origibal (Gnostic) Christianity knew that:

but later faked “Churchianity” suppressed it:

because the semigod YHAWH didn’t want us to know:

Jesus came to bring the truth:

and YHWH had him killed for it…
“Genesis” explains that all things were created in six (6) days. On the sixth day man was created. That means that all the souls of men and women were created on that day. The four Gospels Mathew Mark, Luke a& John all tell of the parable of the “Sower of the Seed”. The Souls of Men return to the Creator and are “regenerated as a seed is regenerated. After all, the first Law of Physics says, “Matter cannot be created or destroyed”. Our “immortal soul” is not unlike the Angels in Heaven. Angels cannot be killed except by the Creator and he hasn’t killed any yet. The Soul carries a memory all the way back to the day of creation on the sixth day and all the lifetimes lived since then. Think about this……If the heavens have been hear for billions of years, why would the creator only allow a man to exist 70+ years and everything else is immortal? Our DNA is the SEED of our human existence and goes back to the very first man & woman.
Of course! What would a post be without the crazy Christards! Thanks for the Entertainment.
Then Adam and Eve multiplied with their children….
No man with a healthy mind can take “6 days” literally. Rather aeons.
In the parable of the “Sower of the seed” the Gospel itself says that the seed here is “God*s word.”
But there is a lot of other evidence of reincarnation in the Bible. Such as

The true self is the SOUL and the body is only its vehicle. The soul never dies! That is good to know in times of catastrophes… We leave the body, but we don’t DIE!
As when the car breaks down and the driver steps out of it…
Your last sentence is perfection. Thank you.
