Would someone forsake thier own will and follow that of another simply because "a book says so"?

I would ony forsake my will for God

I would say not, for the simple reason that whatever the circumstances in which the power of attorney has been granted, they end on the death of the person concerned.  From that moment onwards, others take over, either as executors of the will, if it is a valid will, or under letters of administration.  It is therefore of no concern to the person having the power of attorney what the contents of the will might be.  Indeed, it might give rise to their interfering in some way with the property of the person whose affairs they are looking after in the light of their knowledge of the will's contents.  If the person whose affairs are being taken care of was of sound mind when making the will, then the will should stand, as it reflects the testator's intentions, and nothing should be done to frustrate the carrying out of those expressed wishes.  To do so would amount to an abuse of power.

It all depends on how strong YOUR will is...

Doing what you know is right is more important than either of those things.  "I was just following orders" doesn't cut it anymore.\n\n"That's what is says in the bible" REALLY doesn't cut it.

It may just be a formality, however a will should be read upon a persons demise.  Married Couples usually leave their entire estate to their spouse. In some cases though some keepsake may be left to someone other than the spouse.    Having a reading of the will when one spouse dies is the proper thing to do.

I would say yes\nBut God wants Free-Will of choice........so in turn you make up your own mind.

Nope. If you live in God's will you are willing to accept that some times what you want is not what God wills. You do not and can not buy God's blessings or bribe God into giving you what you want.

No. god decided to contradict himself by taking away free will for a bit, so he could get the humans to write his book for him.\nAnd of course, that's ignoring all the inconsistancies in the new testament, like made up prophesies and the evidence to support that the old testament was actually copied from ancient Sumerian stone tablets...\n\n:)\n\nTY, shawny  :D

As far as I know, the reading of a will is a dramatic device used in movies.  It is not necessary to give the will legal effect.

I don't really know the will of God. I do ask him to show me his will every morning.I believe getting through the day without hurting anyone and helping others less fortunate than me is what his will would be. Have faith, though it's hard at times.

They can protest but I believe from reading this page their attempt would most likely fail.  The will has to have physical damage or have a signature crossed out to be invalid, and if that were the case an older version of the will would be accepted, I think.

If you have the 'will' to do something than you will find the 'way' in which to do it. It's quite simple to explain, but depending on the situation, can be quite difficult to achieve.

i would want to, b/c of the fact that it is a noble gesture as Jesus had sacraficed his life for us...but if i were to be honest i prob. wouldn't do that. in my heart i would want to say yes i would, but we all have a will to live. if you are a truly loving and noble person you would most likely sacrafice yourself, but unfortunately not many are that willing to risk their life (unless of course the person they're trying to save is part of their family).

You thoughts are just like mine.  If there is a will, there is a way.

I would rather not make a decision at all.  God gave us all free will and said to not judge others.  Therefore, I couldn't take way the free will of others or judge them and their mistakes by sending them back to start all over.

Just because I write a book and say God told me what to write, doesn't mean its true, even if I really believe it to be.\n\nIf I kill someone and say God told me to, that does not make it true, but I might feel less responsible by saying it and believing it.  \n\nWhat is that saying...the purpose of some people's lives is a warning to others.  I feel that way about most of the Old Testament.  I do, however, find many of the Psalms quite lovely, and many of the Proverbs, quite instructional.
