I mean no harm, but if you don't believe in the resurrection, it kinda makes you a Sadducee (sad you see).
There are excellent Christian Radio ministry programs on FM radio. I'd listen to that all night rather than watch people who refuse to believe in the (Rapture) or, Caught Up, of Christian believers....of every single word that Jesus and his Apostles, taught
Word for word from the Bible.
Search your heart. I did.
By nature every person is born in sin through the sinful seed of their natural fathers and conditioned therein ( 1 Peter 1:23). For that reason and in order to become a son of God, which are born of God, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God, a person must be 'Born Again' ( John 1:12,13; 3:3-7; 1 John 3:9; 5:4).
By attending a man-made institution a few hours a week ( Acts 7:48; 17:24), does not mean that a person can make a claim that they are followers of Christ and 'Born Again'. That is falsehood, as in truth they follow after an image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; Rev. 12:9). This is how Satan has transformed Himself into an angel of light ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15).
Only through 'True Repentance' will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1).
The word 'Repent' means a lot more than what people by nature have been conditioned to believe. It is the key principle of all the teachings of Jesus Christ and the axiom (basis) of the Word of God and a prerequisite and primary requirement for the salvation of mankind. It actually means the changing of spirits - to turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God ( Acts 26:18).
For a better understanding and the 'spiritual truth' of what it means to repent, and learn how and by whom mankind has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9), and what people must do to be reunited with the true and living God, we invite you to seek Him according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( John 14:17).
You need not that any man teach you ( Isaiah 54:13; 6:45; 1 John 2:27), It is only by revelation of God that you will come to know Christ ( Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1). It is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).
When I have time I will quote some for you all.

You're both under spiritual attack. Get some knowledge in you first, ok.
Matthew 10
When God acts it is also the works of the Word and the Holy Spirit
When the Word acts it is also the works of the Father and His Holy Spirit
When the Holy Spirit acts it is also the works of the Word and the Father
God the Father of Creation expresses His will through both the Word and His Holy Spirit
By the Word of the Lord was the heavens created
And God said let there be light
And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Gen 1:26
Gen 3:22
Gen 11:7
God willed it; The Word spoke it (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit performed it.
God bless and take care.
