Can Bible Standard Ministries please explain their very odd obituary? April 26 2017 What do you think of the odd wording of this obituary?  It's from Bible Standard Ministries written for a person who has a long legacy with that group, one that teaches the High Calling is forever closed and the earthly hope is all that remains. To be certain they teach the dead are not alive but asleep awaiting the resurrection Hope.   Out of respect for the departed and their loved ones, names are withheld. But would they explain? Obituary for: [blank - Bible Student]went home to be with our Heavenly Father on[!?] .... ... was a very devote Christian and a member of the Bible Standard Ministry (sic?)... favorite pastimes included listening to sermons, traveling to Church Conventions... ... will be missed by many, however, [blank] is reunited with loved ones that have gone before. There is no doubt, that [blank] is being held in Our Father’s loving arms.[??!!] In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to “The Bible Standard Ministry”(sic) [once again not properly spelled "Ministries"]... 1156 St. Matthews Rd. Chester Springs, PA 19425-2700. I've got something I could donate, a set of Studies in the Scriptures, to remember what they teach about the unconscious state of the dead.  [Ecc. 9:10]   My how far they have fallen into the miasma of Babylonian confusion, or do you suppose they can offer an explanation?
