"In six days the LORD made the heavens and the
earth, the sea and all that
is in them, and rested on the seventh day"
"For with the Lord one day is like a thousand years and a thousand
years like one day"
There have been numerous accounts of the so
called "near death experience" (or NDE) down through the centuries.
Atheists try to dismiss them as some sort of drug or oxygen deprivation
induced hallucination, but NDEs are different from hallucinations.
There are not the distortions of time, place, body image and
disorientations seen in drug induced experiences. In many NDEs,
people were able to provide information that they could only have known
if they were awake and watching the scene - not just listening with
their eyes closed - all the while clinically dead. Some even
witness real events that occur far away from their dead body.
People born blind can see during NDE. And not surprisingly with
NDEs, religious orientation is not a factor. Now we have
scientific evidence for the afterlife. There are many NDE
testimonies on the Web. Here is a start in your search for
understanding.
