 No, my chemical imbalance was triggered by my fathers death and the reflux is most likely an inherited trait. It's not always possible to tell the difference for those outside of a persons sins. In the case of the people at the church it was obvious, several people all in rebellion to God's purpose becoming life long ill or dying before others in the church and then the ones left admitting they were wrong in what they did, not hard to see.

Are the children in your church aware of the rationale you give for this morbid capital punishment scenario? Does your church preach about this in Sunday School as a warning to those children?

 No that is an adult teaching. Why would we they have to first come to know Christ and come to understand who God is before getting into such a complicated subject. You act as if we are stupid or trying to scare our children into believing something, we teach through love and discipline not hate and fear. What I described was God disciplining His people because they knew they were in the wrong and being selfish in wanting to run the church their way instead of God's. Why do you think that the ones that did not die came to the church God was running and told us they were wrong, they understood what was happening. You are probably trying to figure out a natural explanation for this event but you're not going to find one. You could come here and question the people who were involved on both sides of the issue and you would hear the same thing I'm telling you, as for those who were being punished there is only one alive that I know of, to this day almost all of the ones who were trying to do God's will are still alive.
