@Wallace Raymond what do you mean ? Seeking clarity here, if you please.

[@ruthgriffiths7365]

@Wallace Raymond Actually, it's an expression of respect for a lifetime of service and sympathy for a family in mourning. Also, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh was one of the few remaining people who fought for and served this country, with distinction, in World War II. I very much doubt you appreciate the irony of that very service giving you the right and opportunity to spew your vitriol. Perhaps you simply fail to understand the concept of service, you utterly fail to understand or exhibit a sense of decorum. A little trip to the naughty step may allow you to reflect on the hurt which may result from your vituperative comments. Alas, I fear I credit you with thoughts, emotions, logic and compassion beyond your ken.

[@jillgooner]

@Wallace Raymond Oh well see how you feel after losing someone after 73 years wether its a queen or a local postman it dont matter especially not being able to show your real emotions mind you doubt if that will happen to you , be lucky to if you last 2 years by the sound of your happy, careing, sweet shit nature. Are you in love? probably not, never mind eh!

[@niram6707]

@Wallace Raymond That is your opinion. Your opinion does not make you right and it does not make you wrong. It is just that, your personal view. There are many reasons why people, including 'non-knee benders', are interested in Prince Philip's funeral. My Father-in-Law is of the same generation of Philip - 90 years old, served in the military and fought in the second World War. He watched to pay respect to a man of his generation (there are not many left) and because he respects military tradition and the manner in which the military respectfully and poignantly honour one of their own.

THE GOSPEL! BELIEVE and RECEIVE Jesus' free gift of salvation: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 1 Moreover brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which ye have also received, and wherein ye continue, 2 And whereby ye ARE saved, IF ye keep in memory, after what manner I preached it unto you, except ye have believed in vain. 3 For first of all, I delivered unto you that which I received, how^ that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, 4 And that he was buried, and that he arose the third day, according to the Scriptures ^through the shed BLOOD of JESUS! Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. The only hope we have is Jesus. Jesus is the answer. He’s the only answer, and He’s the only hope. And His return for us as His church is our only hope. That’s what the good news is. In fact, in 1 Thessalonians, the first epistle that the Apostle Paul wrote, he shares the gospel in the context of the Rapture in Chapter 4 of 1 Thessalonians, saying, for we believe that Jesus was crucified, buried, and rose again on the third day, and He’s coming back again one day. That’s the good news. RELIGION SAYS DO. JESUS CHRIST SAYS DONE!! Soon one life will be PAST and that which only was done for Jesus Christ will LAST! Ephesians 1:13-14 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. 2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. Do You Know God Personally? God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life. God’s Love “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” God’s Plan [Jesus speaking] “I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly” [that it might be full and meaningful” (John 10:10). Why is it that most people are not experiencing the abundant life? Because…Man is SINFUL and SEPARATED from God. Therefore, he cannot know and experience God’s love and plan for his life. Man Is Sinful “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Man was created to have fellowship with God; but, because of his stubborn self-will, he chose to go his own independent way, and fellowship with God was broken. This self-will, characterized by an attitude of active rebellion or passive indifference, is an evidence of what the Bible calls sin. Man Is Separated “The wages of sin is death” [spiritual separation from God] (Romans 6:23). Man is continually trying to reach God and the abundant life through his own efforts, such as a good life, philosophy, or religion - but he inevitably fails. The only way to bridge this gulf… He Died in Our Place “God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). He Rose From the Dead “Christ died for our sins…He was buried…He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures…He appeared to Peter, then to the twelve. After that He appeared to more than five hundred…” (1 Corinthians 15:3-6). He Is the Only Way to God “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me’” (John 14:6). This shows that God has bridged the gulf which separates us from Him by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross in our place to pay the penalty for our sins. It is not enough just to know this…We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God’s love and plan for our lives. We Must Receive Christ “As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12) We Receive Christ Through Faith “By grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast” (Ephesians 2:8,9).When We Receive Christ, We Experience a New Birth ( John 3:1-8). We Receive Christ by Personal Invitation [Christ speaking] “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him” (Revelation 3:20). Receiving Christ involves turning to God from self (repentance) and trusting Christ to come into our lives to forgive our sins and to make us what He wants us to be. Just to agree intellectually that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died on the cross for our sins is not enough. Nor is it enough to have an emotional experience. We receive Jesus Christ by faith, as an act of the will. All the work of salvation was done by Jesus Himself. He took upon Himself the punishment for our sins as well as the sins themselves, and went to the cross and paid for every sin that would ever be committed throughout history. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE BORN AGAIN?... The phrase “born again” applies to people who have accepted Jesus as their Savior or Redeemer. The born again soul realizes that they are a sinner (Romans 3:23) and that the penalty for that sin is death (Romans 6:23). To rectify the circumstances, God sent His only Son to die in their place, to take the punishment for sin (Romans 5:8). After Jesus’ death, He arose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:3-6). Jesus is the only way to God (John 14:6) and He provides the blessing of salvation. Each person has the choice to receive or reject God’s gift through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9) and experience new birth (John 3:1-8). WHAT IS BIBLICAL REPENTANCE? Biblical repentance is God centered repentance comes from the greek word 'METANOIA' which means change of one's mind and heart which imparts a new direction to the whole life. Repent (To repent, in relation to salvation, is to change your mind from unbelief to belief in Jesus Christ. To being dead in your sins to a new creature in Christ) and believe in the Gospel. The ABCs of Salvation: The A is for: Admit or acknowledge that you’ve sinned, that you need the Savior. Romans 3:10 says, “There is no one righteous, not even one.” Romans 3:23 tells us why. It’s because “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 6:23 says, “The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” The B very simply is for: Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord. Romans 10:9-10 says, “If you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved.” The C stands for: Call upon the name of the Lord. Or as Romans 10:9-10 also says, “If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Here’s why, “For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.” Romans 10:13 tells us how. It says, “All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.”.... So there you have it! The BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST is found all throughout the Gospel. You can't preach the blood, without preaching the Gospel, and you can't preach the Gospel without preaching the Blood. For the Bible clearly teaches salvation is by FAITH, without WORKS (Eph. 2:8,). Faith in what? FAITH IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST! Romans 3:25-28 make this clear: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. To be justified, or saved, a person's faith must be wholly in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. This declares God the Just one. When a sinner is saved, he cannot boast about himself or his works. He'll only brag upon Jesus who saved him from his sins! Sadly, in our modern age of apostasy, very few who claim to be Christians ever preach the blood of Jesus for salvation. But the simple Bible truth is, YOU CANNOT EVEN BE A CHRISTIAN UNLESS YOU ARE TRUSTING ONLY IN THE SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST! /.,/.,

[@wrestlerx8494]

This is exactly how I felt when my grandfather died. Even as close as I was to him, I was not even crying at the funeral for the most part and I couldn't even understand why. But now I realize that I basically could not register what was happening because it didn't feel real. It was as if my grandfather was still alive somewhere, even though I was right there at his funeral. For the longest time afterward I had the sense that he was still alive but that I simply was not having any contact with him, and I often still feel that way today even though he died in 2017. Of course I cried heavily when it actually registered in my head that he was dead, but my mind kept going back and forth between surrealism and reality.

@@likejohnnyandjune2024 I definitely think that part of it is you don't want to believe it, so your natural instinct is to think that it didn't happen. That has always been a coping strategy for me and I just think it's intrinsically how I deal with death or a loss. I had a miscarriage of a baby in 2018, and while I do acknowledge that it happened, the only way I can cope with the loss is not to think or talk about it. I believe that I was doing the same thing when my grandfather died, because I do get teary-eyed whenever I actually stop to think about the fact that he died. I basically have to put it out of my mind to prevent this.

I know the feeling. Having buried just about my entire family including the only 2 people who ever truly loved me unconditionally, I concur.

Watching Prince Philip's funeral reminded me of that and how lost and sad my pop was after losing the love of his life. He even also wrote her a letter like the queen did. She is such a strong woman and this lose will be tough on her but she is very much loved and will not be alone

@@CarolWS004 I would love to do that and I have heard some stories from her, but it's very awkward and difficult to start the conversation, one because she is old and doesn't always comprehend what you are trying to say or talk about so you have to repeat it several times and possibly change how you say it so it's easier to understand. Even then very often I don't end up getting anywhere if she doesn't comprehend what I am talking about, so I am left feeling awkward especially since a few other family members are always around and witnessed my failed attempt to make conversation. There is also the fact that she is rather senile as I mentioned and in that sense she will not talk or have a discussion unless she wants to at the time. So for instance if she is in a bad mood even if it isn't outwardly apparent she will imply that she doesn't want to have a discussion, but she won't say so directly so you sort of have to read between the lines. I wish it was easier to talk to her, but I am glad I have been able to do it at least a few times.

THE GOSPEL! BELIEVE and RECEIVE Jesus' free gift of salvation: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 1 Moreover brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which ye have also received, and wherein ye continue, 2 And whereby ye ARE saved, IF ye keep in memory, after what manner I preached it unto you, except ye have believed in vain. 3 For first of all, I delivered unto you that which I received, how^ that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, 4 And that he was buried, and that he arose the third day, according to the Scriptures ^through the shed BLOOD of JESUS! Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. The only hope we have is Jesus. Jesus is the answer. He’s the only answer, and He’s the only hope. And His return for us as His church is our only hope. That’s what the good news is. In fact, in 1 Thessalonians, the first epistle that the Apostle Paul wrote, he shares the gospel in the context of the Rapture in Chapter 4 of 1 Thessalonians, saying, for we believe that Jesus was crucified, buried, and rose again on the third day, and He’s coming back again one day. That’s the good news. RELIGION SAYS DO. JESUS CHRIST SAYS DONE!! Soon one life will be PAST and that which only was done for Jesus Christ will LAST! Ephesians 1:13-14 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. 2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. Do You Know God Personally? God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life. God’s Love “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” God’s Plan [Jesus speaking] “I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly” [that it might be full and meaningful” (John 10:10). Why is it that most people are not experiencing the abundant life? Because…Man is SINFUL and SEPARATED from God. Therefore, he cannot know and experience God’s love and plan for his life. Man Is Sinful “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). Man was created to have fellowship with God; but, because of his stubborn self-will, he chose to go his own independent way, and fellowship with God was broken. This self-will, characterized by an attitude of active rebellion or passive indifference, is an evidence of what the Bible calls sin. Man Is Separated “The wages of sin is death” [spiritual separation from God] (Romans 6:23). Man is continually trying to reach God and the abundant life through his own efforts, such as a good life, philosophy, or religion - but he inevitably fails. The only way to bridge this gulf… He Died in Our Place “God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). He Rose From the Dead “Christ died for our sins…He was buried…He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures…He appeared to Peter, then to the twelve. After that He appeared to more than five hundred…” (1 Corinthians 15:3-6). He Is the Only Way to God “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me’” (John 14:6). This shows that God has bridged the gulf which separates us from Him by sending His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross in our place to pay the penalty for our sins. It is not enough just to know this…We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God’s love and plan for our lives. We Must Receive Christ “As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12) We Receive Christ Through Faith “By grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast” (Ephesians 2:8,9).When We Receive Christ, We Experience a New Birth ( John 3:1-8). We Receive Christ by Personal Invitation [Christ speaking] “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him” (Revelation 3:20). Receiving Christ involves turning to God from self (repentance) and trusting Christ to come into our lives to forgive our sins and to make us what He wants us to be. Just to agree intellectually that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died on the cross for our sins is not enough. Nor is it enough to have an emotional experience. We receive Jesus Christ by faith, as an act of the will. All the work of salvation was done by Jesus Himself. He took upon Himself the punishment for our sins as well as the sins themselves, and went to the cross and paid for every sin that would ever be committed throughout history. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE BORN AGAIN?... The phrase “born again” applies to people who have accepted Jesus as their Savior or Redeemer. The born again soul realizes that they are a sinner (Romans 3:23) and that the penalty for that sin is death (Romans 6:23). To rectify the circumstances, God sent His only Son to die in their place, to take the punishment for sin (Romans 5:8). After Jesus’ death, He arose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:3-6). Jesus is the only way to God (John 14:6) and He provides the blessing of salvation. Each person has the choice to receive or reject God’s gift through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9) and experience new birth (John 3:1-8). WHAT IS BIBLICAL REPENTANCE? Biblical repentance is God centered repentance comes from the greek word 'METANOIA' which means change of one's mind and heart which imparts a new direction to the whole life. Repent (To repent, in relation to salvation, is to change your mind from unbelief to belief in Jesus Christ. To being dead in your sins to a new creature in Christ) and believe in the Gospel. The ABCs of Salvation: The A is for: Admit or acknowledge that you’ve sinned, that you need the Savior. Romans 3:10 says, “There is no one righteous, not even one.” Romans 3:23 tells us why. It’s because “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Romans 6:23 says, “The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” The B very simply is for: Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord. Romans 10:9-10 says, “If you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved.” The C stands for: Call upon the name of the Lord. Or as Romans 10:9-10 also says, “If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Here’s why, “For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.” Romans 10:13 tells us how. It says, “All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.”.... So there you have it! The BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST is found all throughout the Gospel. You can't preach the blood, without preaching the Gospel, and you can't preach the Gospel without preaching the Blood. For the Bible clearly teaches salvation is by FAITH, without WORKS (Eph. 2:8,). Faith in what? FAITH IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST! Romans 3:25-28 make this clear: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. To be justified, or saved, a person's faith must be wholly in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. This declares God the Just one. When a sinner is saved, he cannot boast about himself or his works. He'll only brag upon Jesus who saved him from his sins! Sadly, in our modern age of apostasy, very few who claim to be Christians ever preach the blood of Jesus for salvation. But the simple Bible truth is, YOU CANNOT EVEN BE A CHRISTIAN UNLESS YOU ARE TRUSTING ONLY IN THE SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST! /.,.,/,

I was raised by a generation who lived through two world wars and the depression...they were resilient, tough, made the best of everything with a huge dose of good humour, were kind, empathetic, respectful of others and well-mannered and believed that every cloud has a silver lining. They were stoic..the world is far poorer for their passing, and it wouldn’t hurt us at all if we were to return to some, if not all, of those values.

And that is why they will be forever known as The Greatest Generation.

As a subject of Her Majesty, I am so deeply sorry for her loss. Prince Philip and The Queen have been the one constant through my parent's lives, my life and my children lives. I have been married for 33 years having met my wife ahead of 18 yrs and a day. Her Majesty fell in love aged 15. Prince Philip at 44 months older kept his distance until she was 18. Choosing to write letters to each other, they fell in love the way many of that generation did. They knew each other inside out via those letters. To lose him so close to her birthday, next Saturday 21st April will be another crushing day. For the first time in 77 years, she will have a birthday without him. I pray Her Majesty does not follow so many her age when they lose their life partner and follow within the year. Please God, bless this great woman, someone who has served her people around the world for so many years. Long may she reign.

I think the Queen deliberately sat alone so she could draw support from her family being directly opposite her, all within her sight, and in return they could get support from her as they dealt with their own grief. Not easy to do if you are all in pews on one side. It would be like passing a packet of jaffas down the tow at the movies and someone misses out. They also had to meet the covid seating/spacing restrictions. Not easy to support each other while the world is watching one of the most personal events in one's life. I felt personally honoured that they shared their grief with us and thought the TV coverage showed extreme respect to their privacy while the public watched on.

She did not visit him for that month he was at the hospital. Strange for elderlies who are "close" ; we hear they also lived in separate dwellings......also strange for old people. We truthfully know very little about their private lives. We know she loves her horses and her dogs......The people ? they can likely come and go. Andrew and Harry have both been huge disappointments....but she got used to that.......She is close to Anne and Edward ; and to Sophie, his wife ; not exactly sure how she really feels about Charles.....all the little kids....come and go.....and her job is really what makes her go forward.
