Watch Dean Braxton's videos, they are amazing and give you such anticipation of excitement to pass from this life. I am 72 and know my time here is short. My son passed 4 yrs ago and it ripped my heart out. These videos healed my broken heart. I can hardly wait to see him and my GOD!
Thanks for this kind reply. It makes my heart happy to hear it’s helped you heal. I have a guest who knows Dean and she says he’s just about the sweetest man you could ever meet. She adores him. Prayers for you Jack!
Wow thanks. This means so much. Honestly I am still in the clouds at the chance to host John Burke. When I started podcasting to share testimonies I had no idea these types of experiences would come to me In the numbers they have. I found his book on the Bible ap (youversion) after my campus pastors looked at me funny when I would ask them about these reports. His book really opened my mind and helped me see the correlation to scripture. It’s actually very exciting! The Bible does state that towards the end of days that the Holy Spirit will be poured out on the Earth and people will have dreams and visions…maybe this is part of how that translates? We definitely need to have discernment and stay grounded in the Word. I want to do all I can while I am here to point people to Jesus, but when it’s my time to go, I can hardly wait!
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Thank you for the lovely reply! And kudos for your calling to help people. I’m on a similar path myself, yet in a different way. I found God myself in 2018 and it has changed my life entirely, and even more so my way of thinking and prioritising. Bless you!
Have a look at this clear sighted NDE summary that includes a bigger spectrum, not cherry picked: PAT S.: "I had a feeling of unconditional love, and it was as if all of a sudden I knew everything. AFTER PASSING ON IN THIS LIFE, THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AGAINST YOU, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID IN THIS LIFE." LAURA Z.: "I felt in my heart that God is also all right with our fear, although it will not stop showing us love. God loves us regardless of everything and regardless of ourselves. EVERY CHOICE WE HAVE EVER MADE, OR EVER WILL MAKE, IS ALREADY ACCEPTED. FORGIVENESS IS NOT EVEN A THING. All of us is already LOVED and UNCONDITIONALLY, despite our ideas." VICTOR P.: "We discussed my life while I relived portions of it. We reviewed my life, proceeding from oldest to younger events. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION, AND NO RIGHT OR WRONG. There was COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING." No condemnation at all....TAMARA J.: "I then felt that I left this world and my body and was in the presence of God/Jesus. I BELIEVED THAT MY LIFE DEPENDED ON ME DOING THE RIGHT THING, AND TRYING TO BE A DIFFERENT PERSON. It was like every cell of my being was at peace and I had the joy of loving myself and being loved the way I always wanted to be. LOVE IS PERFECT, it is all encompassing, it is everything we have ever wanted, and IT IS WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. What I recall are a few messages. The message that THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION, that God loves us and we are all loved. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION AND NO JUDGEMENT during my NDE. We may choose to turn from God but God does not turn from us. I QUIT THINKING OF HELL THE WAY I USED TO AND NO LONGER CONDEMN ANYONE. Since my NDE I believe THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION." Despite faults?....ERINN H.: "I was LOVED UNCONDITIONALLY DESPITE MY FAULTS and fears.” Jesus again? CARL G.: "I was standing before Christ. He showed me my whole life, the good and the bad and all the rest. HE SAID, "THAT IS ALRIGHT, LIFE IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE." JENNEANE E.: "Powerful UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and it is a feeling of just knowing what it is. I felt like I was a sinner and I WAS AMAZED THAT HE WOULD SHOW ME LOVE LIKE THAT DESPITE MY MISTAKES IN LIFE THAT MAY HAVE HURT OTHERS OR MYSELF." More? ANNE MURPHY: ""All there was, was the most unconditional love, compassion, pure and total acceptance with no judgement at all. I WAS SHOWN THAT THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AND NO HELL, NO OPINIONS, NO PUNISHMENT, not like what we are taught here, about a judgemental God and being sent to hell if you're bad, that was not the case. Now what about this?....HERMAN V.: "I found myself falling into a black abyss and I knew that I was dead. Then I noticed my rate of fall slowing, and stopping. I noticed pinpoints of fuzzy light all around me, which gradually came into focus. It was then that I realized that a being dressed in a robe of brown, purple, and gold had broken my fall. The greatest awareness that came to me was that THE TEACHINGS OF CHURCHES WHICH FOCUS ON GUILT AND THE NEED FOR SALVATION VIA SOME CHANGE IN BEHAVIOR ARE WRONG. THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT, NO RATING OF ONE'S LIFE, NO PUNISHMENT FOR DEEDS DONE OR NOT DONE, just an overwhelming feeling that one is loved. Many times I'd like to take over the pulpit and tell people what is really on the other side, and that THE GUILT PREACHED BY CHURCHES IS COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE." JEFFERY O.: "I 'knew' my whole life, every event both good and bad, yet standing in the presence of divinity I saw the pure love in all of it. THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT, ONLY THE 'KNOWING'; THAT IT WAS ALL PERFECT. That my entire life was created in love FOR me. EVEN MY CHOICES, GOOD OR BAD, HAD SERVED MY HIGHEST GOOD in every way. For I was only here to learn, and God, along with me, had provided the perfect path for my souls progression." N. DANISON: "THERE'S NO PAYBACK, THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT, THERE'S NO HELL. Humans want revenge and punishment as part of their animal nature. GOD IS UNCONDITIONALLY LOVING AND HAS NO REASON TO WANT HUMANS' IDEA OF "JUSTICE", MUCH LESS REVENGE AND PUNISHMENT. THANKFULLY, GOD DOES NOT THINK LIKE HUMANS (BTW, I have worked in the justice system for 44 years)." S. BOYD.: "After seeing what I saw in my NDE, WHEN WE DIE WE DON'T GO TO HELL, WE AREN'T JUDGED, and I need to be more accepting of others as well." JO B.: "In one strand I was aware that Light knew me better than I knew myself. DESPITE ANY OF MY FOIBLES, ECCENTRICITIES, POOR DECISIONS, AND PLAIN OLD HUMANNESS, IT LOVED ME TO THE CORE. It found the seriousness with which I viewed myself, amusing."
I loved this Julie! I got the book a few years ago. I keep it in my bedside table and sometimes read a few pages before bed to think of Heaven. I’m so glad this is not my final home.
Such Love! I've heard that some believe in, that because You're the Son of Elohim, You suffered less, during Your distress. But then, they completely forget, that You're the Son of man, yet; Which learned obedience through all Your sufferings, but always without any sins! Thank You, Lord, that during Your life down here, You stood against all kind of temptation, to prepare a way for my salvation! I'm so grateful for those precious Words in the garden of Gethsemane, in the middle of Your agony ; "Abba Father....not as I will, but as You will!" Nobody took Your life, Lord, but You gave it freely, went through all the pain, scorn and slaughter, because You love us dearly! How can I ever comprehend such Love, which eternal life did bestow?! All I can do, is believe and receive, forever praise Your Name ; which salvation for me became!
Thanks Nina. Thanks for being there for me when there were crickets on this podcast. You kept me going and I wouldn’t be here with John Burke if it wasn’t for you. I love you.💕
Shalom! I'm so grateful to Abba Father for finding your vlog and for listening to wonderful testimonies of Heaven! 😊 Last December I had some days where I was very very weak, and in the middle of it all I believe that I got an inner vision of Heaven! It was so vivid and I remembered every detail afterwards and have written it down. I had actually been praying about this for years, I mean that if possible, I would like to have a vision or something like that of Heaven, as I consider it to be my real Home, where my heart is, you know, and Abba Father gave it to me when I needed it most. I can truly say that it is a place that it is worth suffering a little while on earth for, and I'm determined to endure to the end 🔚, as I wanna go Home one glorious day, and spend the rest of my eternity with Abba Father, The Lord, the angels and all of those who have gone before me. 🌸 🌼 🌸 🌼 🌸 🌼 🌸 May the Lord's peace and grace be with you there! Warm greetings from Monica in Norway 🇳🇴.
Your remarks here blessed me so much because that's how I feel. I listen to all the near death experiences i can find. Knowing heaven is my real home, i am homesick hear. But even so, want to fulfill my Father's will for me here. So many needs we see here, so many people who need to see love in action. Praying now, Father show me how to love my neighbor is my prayer. Let my neighbor be drawn to you through you in me. I will see you one day in heaven, Monica. You have seen this place, i have not, well, only through the eyes of others. I am from Germany, living in the US, looking forward to this wonderful place, our home.
Amazing!! I'm happy you guys spoke about hell because too many people cherry pick from Scripture. People who preach there was no hell or no condemnation in their personal NDE and therefore it doesn't exist full stop need to be very careful because Jesus spoke more about hell then He did heaven. People who go to heaven experience a part of something and not everything. They've only scratched the surface. Just because someones experience was amazing doesn't mean that is the case for everyone when they die and don't come back.
Yes! It’s crazy we studied Max Lucado’s book Unshakable Hope last summer and there was a statistic about how many “Christians” did not believe that Satan was an actual real being (it was a high number). I was floored. It’s so clear in the Bible. I wish I could share the testimony a man sent me of his hellish NDE but he didn’t respond when I reached out. It was super powerful. What a wake up call! I have another testimony coming next month where either a demon (or Satan) shows up and tries to sabotage a miracle that a man receives but is rebuked. So good! Seeing how far the testimony is going now it is clear to see why the devil tried to take it. Thanks for listening! I am still on cloud 9 that I got this time with John!
Here are a few more wake up calls: Judgement?.................... PAT S.: "I had a feeling of unconditional love, and it was as if all of a sudden I knew everything.

@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Don't let facts get in the way of beliefs: Note that NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES ARE RANDOM. The 800 pound gorilla in the room is a simple question: Why do seemingly good people sometimes experience terrifying NDEs, and MAFIA-LEVEL PEOPLE GET BATHED IN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? This has been researched and is known. Some even happen to small kids, some were 6 year olds. 3% of them reported a distressing or "hell"-like experience. How many 6 year olds is your afterlife torturing? Don't try to categorize them into "good people" and "bad people" categories, it's not true. See here: See this first: NANCY BUSH (IANDS) - "Negative experiences further complicate matters, because THEY HAVE NO DISCERNABLE RELATION TO WHAT KIND OF LIFE a person has lived. In other words, being a good person is no guarantee that you won’t get into a terrible car accident and suddenly find yourself experiencing what feels, in a very real sense, "hellish.”" As Bush has seen, “What we think people deserve has nothing to do with whether they have a glorious experience or a terrible one. Saints have reported extremely disturbing NDEs, while felons have encountered bliss. Although people have sometimes wondered whether good people have pleasurable experiences and bad people have distressing ones, RESEARCH HAS SHOWN NO SUCH RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN APPARENT LIFE DEEDS AND TYPE OF NDE. In spite of the findings of these prior studies, this erroneous stereotype persists.” "In addition, AMONG PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD MULTIPLE NDEs, SOME HAVE HAD A PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCE ONE TIME, AND A DISTRESSING EXPERIENCE ANOTHER, IN NO DEFINITE ORDER. NO EVIDENCE supports the conventional assumption that “good” people get pleasant NDEs and “bad” people have distressing ones. THERE IS NO HARD EVIDENCE THAT CHARACTER TRAITS “CAUSE” ANY TYPE OF NDE. The list of character traits that people assume help to create a distressing NDE include: being hostile, cold, repressed, suppressed, unloving, controlling, rigid, sinful, guilt-ridden, non-God-loving, fearful, mean. Although authors, even some researchers, have said those traits are connected to distressing NDEs, no testable evidence has been produced in support; THE LIST IS BASED ON GUESSWORK, ASSUMPTIONS, AND EXPERIENCERS’ SELF ASSESSMENTS (“I think I was unloving”), NOT ON FACTUAL EVIDENCE." "By contrast, THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS WITH A PERFECT FIT TO THOSE DESCRIPTIONS WHO HAVE HAD PLEASANT, EVEN BLISSFUL NDEs. Some describe themselves as having been unloving, even hostile, before the NDE. On the other hand, some kindly, friendly, peaceful, religious, loving people have had a really difficult experience. The observable characteristics of a person simply do not match up to the type of NDE. The weakness I find is twofold: first, that people are so often crippled by their fear and guilt about a literal meaning of the NDE as they understand it (punishment, unworthiness, blame) that THEIR LIFE BECOMES DEFORMED." NANCY BUSH (IANDS): "Now...into all this comes Marilyn Mendoza, a Louisiana woman with a PhD in counseling and a curiosity about what it is like to die in prison. She also wondered if the deathbed visions of dying felons might be especially difficult. So far as anyone knows, deathbed visions differ from near-death experiences only in the fact that their experiencers don’t come back afterwards. Otherwise, the descriptions are virtually identical. Mendoza’s findings are therefore applicable to the study of near-death experiences and are reported in the latest issue of the IANDS newsletter. Her study population is housed at Angola, one of the most notorious of U.S. prisons. In her words: “Angola is a maximum security prison that has been called the bloodiest prison in America. It houses 5,000+ men whose crimes range from mu*der, ra*e, and armed robbery to drug offenses. The majority of men who come to Angola die there." “As is common with most people, the experiences the caretakers described were pleasant. The most frequently seen visions were of family members. Caretakers reported that the dying saw mothers, grandmothers, sons, fathers, and other family members. The dying spoke of people waiting for them and calling them to come home. The dying also spoke of angels, beautiful gardens, gates and the Light. The men stared at corners of the room, at the wall and the ceiling. They reached for and called out to the deceased they saw. In other words, the dying prisoners saw and experienced the same things as the general population." "There is not a shred of evidence that good people get good experiences and bad people get bad experiences. The conviction that types of NDEs and deathbed visions are tied to moral qualities and behaviors simply does not hold up." See this now: Dr. J. LONG: "To help understand frightening experiences, it is crucial to know that the SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY of experiences with hellish content THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED PUBLICLY ARE NOT ACTUAL NDEs. My physician background helps me distinguish NDE from non-NDE experiences that occur during a health crisis. In general, EXPERIENCES WITH UNEXPECTED ALTERATIONS OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT ARE NOT REAL NDEs, ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO BE FRIGHTENING THAN ACTUAL NDEs. These experiences may include (but not limited to) intensive-care unit (ICU) delirium, drug experiences, and so on. Many individuals who had a frightening experience are very reassured when they understand that WHAT THEY EXPERIENCED WAS AN UNREAL PRODUCT OF ALTERED BRAIN FUNCTION, and not a real NDE."
You mean these ones? They say they were TOLD or SHOWN, not assuming. I have about 100 like this, if you'd like to see them: Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home." Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love." And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!" And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife." Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction." What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience." Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back." I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.” More? Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE." Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole. Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe." What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them." Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love." And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture." Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must." See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
Thank you, Julie! Another beautiful reminder of His love for us. I paused the episode not even 10 minutes in and bought Imagine Heaven and the companion devotional. I look forward to each of your episodes. 💖 ☺
It was a gift to me to get a chance to interview him (I am still giddy about it). His book helped me so much as I needed something to help me discern when receiving testimonies through the podcast. I really want to host a study group with his resources but God is calling me to some other things at the moment. He has tons online that is free to watch and more answers to questions that I posted on links. I hope you enjoy the books!!! It’s such a joy to remember what is awaiting us on the other side! 🙌🙏🏻💕
We all need to be reminded of what glory is coming in these crazy times. I did want to focus on heaven and on Jesus. I am literally in tears as I am putting this episode out today. Tears of gratitude and I just know God will use this to reach someone who is lost. I thought John did a beautiful job. I know we have work to do as believers, and I am happy to be here and serve the Lord, but oh wow am I excited to get to this beautiful place and see Jesus!!!!
@Robert God doesn’t send anyone to hell. People choose it for themselves. God is holy and did everything he could, including allowing the death of his own son, that you and your your loved one would not have to go to hell. God’s plan is that we spend our life and eternity with Him. It’s not hard. We only have to believe that Jesus died in our place and that God loves you. He does……even when you are angry and don’t want to believe it. I beg you to not make the same choice.
@@donna7612 Really? Can you change your mind about being tortured and leave? Why not? Answer that question and then you'll know just who is really doing the "sending".
Excellent, thank you so much. We have every reason to believe that Jesus Christ is the one true way to the father. I would also add the Shroud of Turin to the lineup. I encourage everyone to do an in depth investigation of the Shroud and you will see that it is the real deal. God left so much evidence for His existence and love for us that we have to be willfully ignorant not to see it.
Oh I will chime in about the shroud of Turin. My favorite vid on that was Jesus and the shroud of Turin. It is chock-full of scientific data that simply cannot be explained away and shows that that piece of cloth really is the burial cloth of Messiah.
Also, Ron Wyatt finding Noah's Ark. In the mountains of Ararat, like the bible says. It measured the exact length and width as stated in the Bible. Its on youtube I believe. Also, look up on youtube the "genetic Adam". They took DNA from all the races, on all continents and EVERYONE has the same ONE Chromosome from one man thousands of years ago. This was mainstream science by the way. Just amazing. I have backslidden greatly but with everything that is happening, i am coming back to faith, although I have never lost the belief of Jesus Christ and the Bible.
I really enjoyed listening, it seems like an hour isn't enough. One thing he mentioned was the prophet Isaiah, amazing how 700 years before Jesus, God revealed it!
I know I had so many more questions I wanted to ask, but so much is in the book. Another question was if anyone ever claims to see God the Father…I assume if you get that far you have crossed the border and you don’t return, but if you listen to his interview with Heidi Barr (attached in links), she says she did sit in God the Father’s lap and John says he has heard these testimonies but didn’t put them in the book. So many more I could have asked…maybe I can ask for another interview? I feel so blessed to have had the time with him. He does also have so much out there online. It’s such great stuff!!!!
Here are a few more things from the prophets that he seems to have missed: Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM. The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE". John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.” NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH. The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions. Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes. The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims. Timothy 6:16 God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever. Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going. Psalm 146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH. Ecclesiastes 9:2 It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow. Ecclesiastes 3:19 I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST. Psalm 6:5 For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol? Psalm 115:17,18 THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE. Isaiah 38:18 For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU. Psalm 30:9 What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU? Job 14:10 But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP. Ecclesiastes 7:2 It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
Jesus is the Light John 8:12 Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Ephesians 5:8 For at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light. Thank you my Lord Jesus, your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalm 119:105
I am 100 percent with you. When i booked John for the podcast I don’t think I could could sleep the week before. I was so excited. When he talked about those moments on earth when we get a glimpse of heaven? I wanted to scream yes! Like right now! I get to interview John Burke! His book is the best. He’s the reason I felt validated to share what I felt God was leading me to share with ndes.
Have you been led to share this information as well? Nintendo characters? Santa Clause? For those who want to know the full story... THE NDE STUDIES.....(Los Angeles Times excerpts) Researchers estimate that around 17% of people have an NDE. That means about 80% don't. Scratch beneath those alleged flat EKG lines and the stories are a veritable Twilight Zone of inconsistencies. Some near-death voyagers claim to have met God - BUT A FEW SAW ELVIS PRESLEY OR GROUCHO MARX, researchers say. Others get to heaven not through the famous "tunnel", but ABOARD GHOSTLY TAXI CABS, FERRIES THAT CROSS THE RIVER STYX, OR SPANGLED COWS. Even some children - often touted as the best source of unbiased information - sometimes return from "death" CLAIMING THEY WERE GREETED IN THE OTHER WORLD by STILL LIVING TEACHERS and NINTENDO CHARACTERS. HINDUS WHO BELIEVE IN YAMRAJ, the Hindu god of death, EXPERIENCED MEETING HIM. A Hindu girl "died" AND WENT TO HEAVEN ON A COW. Would that mean western people will be riding cows to heaven? Jews who don't believe in Jesus or "hell", experienced meeting God as described in the Old Testament, while messianic Jews experienced God as Jesus. Dr. Richard Eby had an NDE and allegedly Jesus told him he had to back, and that he (Jesus) would be returning (2nd coming) before he died permanently. BUT DR. RICHARD EBY HAS NOW DIED AND JESUS HAS NOT RETURNED. A few hospitals have placed signs in their cardiac units - with nonsensical messages visible only from above - BUT SO FAR NOBODY HAS RETURNED FROM DEATH CLAIMING TO HAVE FLOATED UP AND SEEN ONE. In one study carried out, the experiences of 16 Asian Indians were compared with those of Americans, and IT WAS FOUND THAT THE INDIANS HAD ENCOUNTERED YAMRAJ, the Hindu god of the dead, WHILE THE AMERICANS HAD NOT. You would expect that if any one particular religious account of the afterlife was true, NDEs would be pretty much the same. BUT THESE ACCOUNTS ARE SO VARIED AND ARE ARE ALL BASED ON CULTURAL EXPOSURE. IN INDIA, PEOPLE SEE HINDU GODS; IN SAUDI ARABIA ITS ALLAH, MOHAMED, AND A BUNCH OF VIRGINS. The kid from the book/movie Heaven Is For Real, saw a Jesus with sea-green blue eyes ON A RAINBOW COLORED HORSE, GOD WITH HUGE WINGS, YELLOW HAIR AND BLUE EYES; and ONE LITTLE GIRL WENT TO HEAVEN AND WAS GREETED BY A PORTLY MAN WITH A WHITE BEARD AND RED CAP, aka SANTA CLAUSE. The Mapuche people of South America and residents of Hawaii are more likely to SEE LANDSCAPES AND VOLCANOES, whereas NDEs in Thailand rarely involve landmarks, tunnels, or light. For Tibetans, light features more heavily AS DO ILLUSIONS OF REINCARNATION. Europeans and North Americans often visualize beautiful gardens; intriguingly the Kalai of Melanesia are more inclined to SEE AN INDUSTRIALIZED WORLD OF FACTORIES. An NDEr's subjective recollections can be attributed to many factors: THE NDEr's PSYCHOLOGY, PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, BACKGROUND, ETC., NOT JUST CULTURE. The terrain of Heaven also varies wildly - from gardens, forests, and CATTLE FILLED PASTURES in some accounts, to clouds, COMPUTER ROOMS OR CASTLES, in others. A TEXAN SAW BARBED WIRE FENCES IN THE AFTERLIFE. Micronesians describe LARGE NOISY CITIES WITH CARS AND SKYSCRAPERS. Drug addicts, felons (murder), suicides, hedonists, abusers, mean people, and gay people have all claimed to encounter heaven. Strangely, people have claimed to enter some "hell" FOR THE SAME REASONS. Contradictions abound. This is a wonder. Is the hereafter actually mining and refining raw materials needed to build castles, cars, barbed wire fences, computers, and skyscrapers? From where do they get this material and tools? Not to mention the raw materials and tools needed to construct an ever increasing number of those cages and cubes in the Christian hell, as a few claim. Who builds those cages? And which of the variety of "hells" do you actually go to? Christian? Buddhist? Spiritualist? Hindu? Muslim? Some other one? The answer seems to be whichever one the experience has been exposed to, as Thai NDErs regularly claim to encounter LORD YAMA AND YAMATOOTS, COMPLETE WITH TALKING DECEASED ROOSTERS, and being sentenced to Buddhist "hell" for butchering and eating chicken, then reincarnated as birds. DOES THAT MEAN WESTERNERS WILL UNKNOWINGLY BE HEADING TO BUDDHIST "HELL" FOR EATING CHICKEN? Thai accounts state that butchers become lumps of meat in Buddhist "hell", so what then awaits Western slaughterhouse workers? Even in her rather homogeneous Western European clientele, Kubler-Ross could see the effects of early enculturation: " I NEVER ENCOUNTERED A PROTESTANT CHILD WHO SAW THE VIRGIN MARY IN HIS LAST MINUTES, YET SHE WAS PERCEIVED BY MANY CATHOLIC CHILDREN." But there also are some hard-to-explain differences, Melvin Morse says. Whereas American near-death survivors are typically sent back by God because “it’s not your time yet,” INDIA'S AFTERLIFE VISITORS ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE TOLD THERE WAS A “CLERICAL ERROR.” Even more curious: SOMETIMES THE BEING OF LIGHT IS ELVIS PRESLEY. Moody has chronicled at least two such sightings. Yet the evidence for near-death paranormal powers remains shaky at best. TWO STUDIES HAVE FOUND THAT PATIENTS’ “OUT OF BODY” ACCOUNTS OF WHAT HAPPENED IN THE OPERATING ROOM WERE WRONG. So were the 1988 Armageddon forecasts hyped by Ring and others. Michael Sabom, however, offers a compromise stance: He rejects the idea that they provide glimpses of a heaven or hell. "I’m not saying these people didn’t experience something odd. But I am saying that we should take it with a grain of salt, because IF ANECDOTES MEET YOUR STANDARD FOR WHAT QUALIFIES AS EVIDENCE, then you should probably start buying tin foil and food buckets, because THERE ARE JUST AS MANY PEOPLE WHO REPORT SEEING REPTILIANS AND WHO HAVE BEEN ABDUCTED BY ALIENS." But what about veridical NDEs - near-death experiences in which the person supposedly sees something they couldn’t otherwise have known while ‘flat-lining’ and others are able to verify that what they saw is indeed correct. The most notorious example of this is Maria’s shoe. A lady named Maria reportedly left her body, floated around and saw a shoe on a ledge outside her hospital window, that she ‘couldn’t have possibly seen.’ Her critical care provider, Kimberly Clark, looked outside and saw the shoe, just as described. BUT WHEN RESEARCHERS TRIED TO TRACK DOWN MARIA TO CONFIRM CLARK'S STORY, THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO FIND ANY SUCH PERSON OR ANYONE ELSE TO CORROBORATE THE ACCOUNT. And when they placed a shoe on the ledge, it was clearly visible from the hospital room, PROVING CLARK HAD EXAGGERATED AT LEAST PART OF THE STORY. Here’s the topper. There is no record of Maria being in that hospital. There is Dr. Melvin Morse's discovery of "a portal" in the brain that when stimulated, triggers a NDE. He writes that some are threatened by this, as the discovery makes the experience unreal. Sixty years ago, Dr. Wilder Penfield, a neurosurgeon, poked around the right temporal lobe of some epileptic patients and discovered that they would hear heavenly music, relive their pasts in 3D, and have out-of-body visions. Similar experiments continue. There’s growing evidence that the temporal lobe plays a huge role in creating NDEs. When patients had their brains scanned after an NDE, it was discovered that they had increased levels of temporal lobe activity compared with those in a control group. THAT COULD EXPLAIN WHY ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF PEOPLE HAVE NDEs. When Dr. Olaf Blanke implanted electrodes into the brains of patients, HE WAS ABLE TO TRIGGER SUPERNATURAL AND OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCES BY STIMULATING THE TEMPORAL PARIETAL JUNCTION.
I agree with you about what the Bible says about Jesus being the only way to the Father and Heaven. I believe we must choose to follow Him. I also think it is the job of the Holy Spirit to truly convict people. We can do our best to lead them to Christ and His Word, but we cannot get a person there without their heart opening up to Christ.

"More Than A Carpenter" by Josh McDowell is a very readable, well written and concise book that presents the historical evidence for the truth of Jesus Christ. It's what the Holy Spirit used to help "seal the deal" for me as a very skeptical ex muslim!
Wow I love this! I haven’t read that one, but my husband keeps copies in his car to hand out to people. He agrees it is very compelling. I am interviewing Dr JP Moreland and we are discussing his book on Experiencing Miracles and it is another that will challenge the skeptic. Excellent read as well.
Check these NDE stories, including Jesus, to get a full picture of what they were TOLD or SHOWN: Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home." Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love." And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!" And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife." Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction." What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience." Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back." I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.” More? Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE." Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole. Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe." What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them." Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love." And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture." Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must." See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
If 23% of people come back from near death experiences reporting a hell experience, I think we can assume that those are just the ones who were honest enough to tell what happened to them. It would have to be very embarrassing to tell people that you went to hell. It would naturally make people wonder what the heck that person had been up to, also.
Yes it is hard to say the exact number, since people are not as likely to report them. I don't think people have to be doing horrific things, I think they could just be so far from God and maybe they are wrapped up in themselves with pride? I don't know. I do believe we choose Jesus and I do believe the only way to heaven is through the Jesus just as it says in the Bible. I don't think it is about just being a "good person." He loves us, but he wants us to choose him back. I did have a person write to me who died and says he went to hell and admits he was living a pretty bad criminal lifestyle and that his experience changed his life completely. I tried to contact him by email to see if he would share but he didn't reply. I guess it would be hard to talk about.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 I think you’re absolutely right that we don’t have to be doing criminal activities in order to qualify for hell. I have heard of so many stories of people who were dying and got healed when they were able to forgive others who had hurt them. I’m assuming that unforgiveness can be a path to the pit. Yes we are to love The Almighty and Messiah, His Son and to love others as ourselves. Sometimes that ain’t easy! Well it is not easy if we try to do it on our own. But he is happy to lead us in those directions, isn’t he? ;-)
That's not true. It's not 23%, not even close. And any serious researcher knows this. And facts override beliefs. See below: Note that NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES ARE RANDOM. The 800 pound gorilla in the room is a simple question: Why do seemingly good people sometimes experience terrifying NDEs, and MAFIA-LEVEL PEOPLE GET BATHED IN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? This has been researched and is known. Some even happen to small kids, some were 6 year olds. 3% of them reported a distressing or "hell"-like experience. How many 6 year olds is your afterlife torturing? Don't try to categorize them into "good people" and "bad people" categories, it's not true: See this first: NANCY BUSH (IANDS) - "Negative experiences further complicate matters, because THEY HAVE NO DISCERNABLE RELATION TO WHAT KIND OF LIFE a person has lived. In other words, being a good person is no guarantee that you won’t get into a terrible car accident and suddenly find yourself experiencing what feels, in a very real sense, "hellish.”" As Bush has seen, “What we think people deserve has nothing to do with whether they have a glorious experience or a terrible one. Saints have reported extremely disturbing NDEs, while felons have encountered bliss. Although people have sometimes wondered whether good people have pleasurable experiences and bad people have distressing ones, RESEARCH HAS SHOWN NO SUCH RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN APPARENT LIFE DEEDS AND TYPE OF NDE. In spite of the findings of these prior studies, this erroneous stereotype persists.” "In addition, AMONG PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD MULTIPLE NDEs, SOME HAVE HAD A PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCE ONE TIME, AND A DISTRESSING EXPERIENCE ANOTHER, IN NO DEFINITE ORDER. NO EVIDENCE supports the conventional assumption that “good” people get pleasant NDEs and “bad” people have distressing ones. THERE IS NO HARD EVIDENCE THAT CHARACTER TRAITS “CAUSE” ANY TYPE OF NDE. The list of character traits that people assume help to create a distressing NDE include: being hostile, cold, repressed, suppressed, unloving, controlling, rigid, sinful, guilt-ridden, non-God-loving, fearful, mean. Although authors, even some researchers, have said those traits are connected to distressing NDEs, no testable evidence has been produced in support; THE LIST IS BASED ON GUESSWORK, ASSUMPTIONS, AND EXPERIENCERS’ SELF ASSESSMENTS (“I think I was unloving”), NOT ON FACTUAL EVIDENCE." "By contrast, THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS WITH A PERFECT FIT TO THOSE DESCRIPTIONS WHO HAVE HAD PLEASANT, EVEN BLISSFUL NDEs. Some describe themselves as having been unloving, even hostile, before the NDE. On the other hand, some kindly, friendly, peaceful, religious, loving people have had a really difficult experience. The observable characteristics of a person simply do not match up to the type of NDE. The weakness I find is twofold: first, that people are so often crippled by their fear and guilt about a literal meaning of the NDE as they understand it (punishment, unworthiness, blame) that THEIR LIFE BECOMES DEFORMED. These kinds of experiences can be deeply traumatizing, enough so that reactions like those in PTSD may be commonplace." NANCY BUSH (IANDS): "Now...into all this comes Marilyn Mendoza, a Louisiana woman with a PhD in counseling and a curiosity about what it is like to die in prison. She also wondered if the deathbed visions of dying felons might be especially difficult. So far as anyone knows, deathbed visions differ from near-death experiences only in the fact that their experiencers don’t come back afterwards. Otherwise, the descriptions are virtually identical. Mendoza’s findings are therefore applicable to the study of near-death experiences and are reported in the latest issue of the IANDS newsletter. Her study population is housed at Angola, one of the most notorious of U.S. prisons. In her words: “Angola is a maximum security prison that has been called the bloodiest prison in America. It houses 5,000+ men whose crimes range from mu*der, ra*e, and armed robbery to drug offenses. The majority of men who come to Angola die there." “As is common with most people, the experiences the caretakers described were pleasant. The most frequently seen visions were of family members. Caretakers reported that the dying saw mothers, grandmothers, sons, fathers, and other family members. The dying spoke of people waiting for them and calling them to come home. The dying also spoke of angels, beautiful gardens, gates and the Light. The men stared at corners of the room, at the wall and the ceiling. They reached for and called out to the deceased they saw. In other words, the dying prisoners saw and experienced the same things as the general population." "There is not a shred of evidence that good people get good experiences and bad people get bad experiences. The conviction that types of NDEs and deathbed visions are tied to moral qualities and behaviors simply does not hold up." See this now: Dr. J. LONG: "To help understand frightening experiences, it is crucial to know that the SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY of experiences with hellish content THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED PUBLICLY ARE NOT ACTUAL NDEs. My physician background helps me distinguish NDE from non-NDE experiences that occur during a health crisis. In general, EXPERIENCES WITH UNEXPECTED ALTERATIONS OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT ARE NOT REAL NDEs, ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO BE FRIGHTENING THAN ACTUAL NDEs. These experiences may include (but not limited to) intensive-care unit (ICU) delirium, drug experiences, and so on. Many individuals who had a frightening experience are very reassured when they understand that WHAT THEY EXPERIENCED WAS AN UNREAL PRODUCT OF ALTERED BRAIN FUNCTION, and not a real NDE."
I also notice you didn't mention that over 80% claim to see nothing. Nor did you mention that other religions "see" their own "gods". Like lord Yama and Yamatoots, Yamraj in India, and Allah and virgins in Saudi Arabia. You see, you need the FULL picture, not a biased and skewed one. And kids have claimed to have seen Nintendo characters, and one report of seeing Santa Clause, as well as seeing still living teachers. That's the FULL picture, not biased. So, what do you think?
And since you like NDEs, common logic means that when there's a contradiction, your "hell" stuff means nothing. Here are only a few that say they were shown or told: Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home." Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love." And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!" And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife." Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction." What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience." Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back." I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.” More? Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE." Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole. Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe." What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them." Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love." And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture." Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must." See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
John has done some amazing work and he has tons of free stuff online that you can find. I was so honored to have this time and I am happy you enjoyed it as well!
If God knows my heart… I had so high hopes in God but i learned my lesson- he is a) just existing in my mind or b) not interested in my heart. I have watched 10000 testimonies, i tried everything those people said. I was able to move away from sin, from one day to another (meaning i am not free of cause). Love is my purpose. This world is evil. I dont live for the world. I wanted to know if God is real. He doesn’t even helped me with coming to better surroundings where i can also keep my Faith and my heart safe. Nothing. No screaming of pain was heard. So many people have a family and love, a home- and so many honest hearts received loneliness, pain and even suicide. This is the pure evil. No loving Jesus for me. Not even a middle finger from heaven. Whenever it came to action one was far- GOD. Giving up. I wanted to praise the lord who saved me. A testimony. One day feeling loved. Nothing. This God is not interested in that 😢
I am sorry to read about your heartache. I know you have watched lots of testimonies...have you ever tried to read the Bible? God often speaks to me through His word. Yes, the world is evil, but God is very real. That doesn't mean that we live from one supernatural encounter to the next, but it is a walk and a journey where we grow and draw closer to Him as we surrender more and more. God loves you. Jesus died for you. You are created in HIS image and He has a plan. I am praying for you today. You have a living hope and His name is Jesus. Blessings!
John 3:16 King James Version 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.JESUS is KNOCKING on your HEARTS DOOR. Romans 10:9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved
Pray to salvation/ be born again. The only way to heaven. Jesus said: I am the way, truth ,and the life, NO one comes to the Father/God exept trought Me. Confess with your mouth and belive in your hart❤ that Jesus is the son of God that died for the sin of the world. Forgive me God, i want Jesus as my Lord and savior. You will be saved
Can you email me and I can see how to best connect you? My email is everydaymiraclespodcast@gmail.com. thanks! I know he is super busy right now with so many projects, but I can try to connect you. He is truly a kind and genuine man.
Great question! So many have asked me that and i do not think it’s mentioned anywhere in the Bible. I guess it’s possible he had one and it was not documented? I can imagine 4 days would have made for the best NDE ever;)! One day we can ask him❤️
Good question. Here's the answer for you: Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM. The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE". John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.” NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH. The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions. Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes. The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims. Timothy 6:16 God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever. Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going. Psalm 146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH. Ecclesiastes 9:2 It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow. Ecclesiastes 3:19 I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST. Psalm 6:5 For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol? Psalm 115:17,18 THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE. Isaiah 38:18 For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU. Psalm 30:9 What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU? Job 14:10 But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP. Ecclesiastes 7:2 It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
So sorry:(. I think the string from his headphones was making that noise and I didn’t realize it until we were well underway. Maybe try to listen on iTunes? I don’t know if that sound is any better? He’s one of my favs too… learned from this. Sometimes the air pods can be glitchy too.
God do not send anyone to hell. Receive Jesus as your savior, He is the way, truth and life, NO one comes to the Father exept trought Me. God gave His only begotten son ,so we can come to heaven.
Brainwashing. So can they change their mind and leave their torture? Why not? Answer that question and then you'll know exactly who is truly doing the "sending".
Thank you for this but that microphone keeps making sounds and it’s very distracting. sounds like somebody is fiddling with something in the background.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 But I must say thank you very much for this. You have saved my life today because I’ve been really really sick with Covid and it also knocked me into a major depression. I’ve been filling my days up with as much of these faithful stories as possible and asking God to please live in my heart and bring His joy back inside my life. Thank you for asking him to pray for your listeners. I didn’t want to live. I know He wants something more for my life - I’m just not sure what it is.
Oh my goodness! Thank you for sharing your feelings here. I am sorry you are struggling and dealing with Covid. Prayers for healing both physically and emotionally. I know it sounds cliche, but sometimes our biggest breakthroughs come after our hardest times. Hang in there and keep praying and seeking Jesus. I am so happy these videos can lift your spirits. I have so many more to post. I know this world feels so dark, but God is still on the throne and I do believe we are on the verge of revival. Praying blessings upon you! 🙏🏻💕
What a great interview, thank you! Question, is it blasphemy when he says ‘oh my gosh!’? even though he’s replaced the word ‘God’, we know that was the intention.
Thanks for the kind feedback. I was thrilled to get this interview with John Burke. Personally, I wasn't offended whatsoever by his statement in using, "gosh," but I know some may see it that way. I have an Aunt that says every explicative word starting in G (goodness, gosh, gee, golly, etc) is the Lord's name in vain and she only says, "hmmmm." I think that is taking it a bit far, but everyone has to decide what they feel is ok.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 oh, looking forward to that! Thankyou so much for your work by the way. I truly See Gods love in your eyes, and I believe many do :)
Thanks so much! That means a lot. I have some great stuff coming, including Heidi. She’s got a powerful NDE and also worked in hospice so she’s witnessed so much as a provider. We may be doing 2 segments. Glad you are enjoying it!
John 3:5 Jesus answered, "Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Acts 2:38 Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Yes! It’s crazy how many people don’t believe in hell. Have you ever seen the testimony of the man who wrote 23 min in hell? This sermon was so powerful and laced with scripture all the way through…th-cam.com/video/NHYQk0tkyik/w-d-xo.html
Wow, really? The cherry picked ones? Better check these NDE stories and see if he's right. How many would you like to see? I have about 100 to show you: Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table.

You might also want to consider these ones: PAT S.: "I had a feeling of unconditional love, and it was as if all of a sudden I knew everything. AFTER PASSING ON IN THIS LIFE, THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AGAINST YOU, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID IN THIS LIFE." LAURA Z.: "I felt in my heart that God is also all right with our fear, although it will not stop showing us love. God loves us regardless of everything and regardless of ourselves. EVERY CHOICE WE HAVE EVER MADE, OR EVER WILL MAKE, IS ALREADY ACCEPTED. FORGIVENESS IS NOT EVEN A THING. All of us is already LOVED and UNCONDITIONALLY, despite our ideas." VICTOR P.: "We discussed my life while I relived portions of it. We reviewed my life, proceeding from oldest to younger events. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION, AND NO RIGHT OR WRONG. There was COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING." No condemnation at all....TAMARA J.: "I then felt that I left this world and my body and was in the presence of God/Jesus. I BELIEVED THAT MY LIFE DEPENDED ON ME DOING THE RIGHT THING, AND TRYING TO BE A DIFFERENT PERSON. It was like every cell of my being was at peace and I had the joy of loving myself and being loved the way I always wanted to be. LOVE IS PERFECT, it is all encompassing, it is everything we have ever wanted, and IT IS WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. What I recall are a few messages. The message that THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION, that God loves us and we are all loved. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION AND NO JUDGEMENT during my NDE. We may choose to turn from God but God does not turn from us. I QUIT THINKING OF HELL THE WAY I USED TO AND NO LONGER CONDEMN ANYONE. Since my NDE I believe THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION." Despite faults?....ERINN H.: "I was LOVED UNCONDITIONALLY DESPITE MY FAULTS and fears.” Jesus again? CARL G.: "I was standing before Christ. He showed me my whole life, the good and the bad and all the rest. HE SAID, "THAT IS ALRIGHT, LIFE IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE." JENNEANE E.: "Powerful UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and it is a feeling of just knowing what it is. I felt like I was a sinner and I WAS AMAZED THAT HE WOULD SHOW ME LOVE LIKE THAT DESPITE MY MISTAKES IN LIFE THAT MAY HAVE HURT OTHERS OR MYSELF." Notice this one...ANDREW PETRO: "I didn't want to come back. I said I'm home and I want to stay here. THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT, THERE WAS NO HELL, THERE WAS NO GOOD AND BAD, THERE WAS NO BIG TALLY IN THE SKY, there was just the light consuming me with unconditional love. In which I was able to consume everyone else with unconditional love. I was stuffed back into my body, which by this time was found at the bottom of the lake, dragged up onto the beach, and my friends were on top of me pushing the water out of my lungs. When I popped back into my body, I immediately started coughing the water up from my lungs. BEING ON EARTH IS LIKE BEING IN A STAGE PLAY. EVERYBODY HAS A PART TO PLAY. THEY ALL HAVE COSTUMES. BUT IT'S NOT REAL. LIFE DOWN HERE IS AN ILLUSION, IT'S A GAME! Don't take it so serious! The light has a wonderful sense of humor. When I was in the light and I was observing all my life's activities, THERE WAS NOT JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NO GOOD OR BAD. THERE WASN'T GOOD OR EVIL. THERE WASN'T RIGHT OR WRONG. THERE WAS NO HIERARCHY. THERE WAS NO ONE LIGHT ANY BIGGER THAN ANY OTHER LIGHT, ALL LIGHTS WERE THE SAME. And when you're in the light looking at it, its different than looking at it now. In this world when I look at some atrocities, I feel really bad about it. It's a different type of feeling when you're in the light. It's observing and understanding you would not do that again. It's like looking at your life and being able to walk away from it like you would an intense movie. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION, THERE WAS NO BLAMING, NO SHAME, THERE WAS NOTHING BUT LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE. The light knew everything that I ever thought, did, or will do! UNCONDITIONAL LOVE MEANS UNCONDITIONAL FORGIVENESS. None of my religious experience was there. I was with the light. People ask, 'where do you go after you die?', and my answer is very short, you go to the light. Why do you go to the light? BECAUSE THERE'S NO PLACE ELSE TO GO. One of the questions I always get is, 'is someone like Hitler in heaven?', and MY ANSWER IS, THE LIGHT IS THE ONLY PLACE TO GO. THERE IS NO OTHER PLACE TO GO. So, the question answers itself. The purpose of life is to love unconditionally, and to accept unconditional love from others. Loving without expectation, and without exception."
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 I guess Bill Weiss (who wasn't even NEAR death) forgot to lace his book with these scriptures: Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM. The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE". John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.” NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH. The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions. Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes. The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims. Timothy 6:16 God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever. Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going. Psalm 146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH. Ecclesiastes 9:2 It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow. Ecclesiastes 3:19 I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST. Psalm 6:5 For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol? Psalm 115:17,18 THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE. Isaiah 38:18 For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU. Psalm 30:9 What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU? Job 14:10 But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP. Ecclesiastes 7:2 It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
I don’t run any ads. Everything I do is without income. It’s TH-cam that has started running ads. I am sorry it was so offensive. It’s one of my all time fav videos.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Just wasn't in the mood. Jewish Christians Steve and Jana Ben-Nun post their videos without ads. Well, I listened to it, had expected it to be more about NDEs. David Sunfellow did a great series a few years ago , people who'd encountered Jesus, only 13 or 14% do, apparently. Besides, I'm one of the 23% of Christians who believe Jesus didn't come to 'pay it all" for us, but to teach and live what it takes to "overcome the world". He said Pray without ceasing and love God with all your being and your neighbor, etc. And you must be Perfect even as your Father in Heaven is Perfect. Anyone think they can do that in one lifetime? Most Christians don't know that the doctrine of reincarnation was part of the canon until the 6th C AD when it was removed from the canon by Emperor Justinian under the pressure of the truly diabolical Theodora. (Asha Logos Channel pretty much proved that) A channel called The 144000 did a series on: By The Emperor's Command: Banning Reincarnation! It quickly runs through all the allusions to and assumptions of the doctrine in the OT and NT. Jesus was present with the Creator from the very beginning: the Word just as John says.
I have been listening to NDE accounts for many years now. I have yet to listen to one by a woman who has had an abortion. You would think with over 3k abortions on average per day in the United States alone that there would be thousands of nde accounts over the last 30 years. Why would I like to hear one? Because if people like Colton Burpo met his unborn sister (Miscarried) in heaven. It begs to reason aborted babies would be there too.
I heard a very compelling NDE of a woman who died during an abortion procedure, Iveren Yaji. She came back with an urgency to tell people about Jesus, he is the only one who can save 💗
@@ozztam There should be thousands of aborted accounts by now not just 1. If NDE's are to be believed, I need to hear those abortion accounts to judge for myself...I watched Iveren Yaji video. I don't believe it. Her body language and delivery look like someone who memorized a story.
Good question. I know a few women who had abortions when they were young, for different reasons, and I can tell you the shame and the regret they carry (especially if they have grown in their faith) is more than one can imagine. Coming forward to share their NDE would be extremely difficult (it is already difficult for the average Joe to do that), so I would guess it is because they don't want people to know? I don't know. Maybe God has a reason for this?
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 I agree that it would be difficult. Probably as hard as it gets. But you would think that someone(mother, sibling/grandmother etc) who met their aborted baby in heaven would be on a mission to save other babies/souls. Another question is there are thousands upon thousands of missing people in the United States. No NDE out of the estimated 700 a day in the United States alone can clear up ANY of the cases? Yet people meet Jesus, Mary and Joseph but nobody has thought to ask JMJ about the neighbors kid who has been missing for 10 years? Not 1? I could go on, but you get my point. And I do believe in NDE's, well at least 75% of them.
I think we touched on this a bit (how different cultures and faiths interpret these things), but I get it. We have to use discernment with these things. As I said before, these experiences aren't the Bible. The Bible has to come before everything else and I know John feels that way as he states that in his books.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Hello again from Norway :-) Thanks so mutch for this answer, i really want to hear from you on this. I`v been a cristian for more than 30 years i`v been stunned by the number of unbiblical pracsises and doctrines reseeved by cristendom over the laste decades. And i have studied paranormal phenomenons up against the Bible on and off for some years now. The last couple of years i focused on NDE`s - And just now i think if (and i really hope i`m wrong in this) - if- NDE`s or even just SOME or MOST of them arent from God, they might somehow be from satan all of them. And if so, it is hily confusing. Because the real ones in the big picture points to the whole phenomena, witch mostly undermine Crists work on the cross. It is very difficult to manouver in this. So confusing. As i said all this makes med suspect the hwole ting. - If i were satan i might do the same, put in some semingly christian testimonies in order to decive millions of christians aswell. ( In to belive its no really need for Jesus, its all right to dye anyway) - I know - if im right in this - that is truly terrible. It must be one of the most terrible deceitfull actions in satans repotoar. - Can you somehow help me out of this terrible naging suspission? - Ill, read your book on the subject as part of me comming in the bottom of this.

I don't understand how religious people don't understand how people experience heaven but they believe in God but don't believe people experience heaven, makes no sense.
When Christians die their soul will go to heaven to be with Christ until the Second Coming of Christ.The fragments of bones and ashes of dead will be reconstituted like Adam was and brought to life by uniting souls with the bodies and judged to end up in heaven or hell.All heathens will be revived but will burn in hell for eternity, this is the promise of Christ.
Jesus is Lord God Almighty clothed in unsinful humanity and He is the author of eternal life to all who trust Him alone for salvation. Jesus paid for all the sins of all the world at the cross (past ,present, and future). That payment is put to your account when you have believed on Christ alone for salvation. God immediately declares you justified and gives you everlasting life as a free gift. When you have believed on Christ alone for salvation then you have repented unto life!!! Salvation is absolutely free, instant, and eternal, recieved solely by trusting in the person and finished work of Christ alone, and is certainly not conditional upon service to God. Service (discipleship)if you choose it can cost you everything if you go all out in serving God. Our good works, repenting of sins, and obedience, are solely for rewards in Heaven or a lack thereof and have absolutely nothing to do with salvation at all. The only reason anyone will ever be in Heaven is solely by the perfect life, shed blood, death, burial, and resurrection, of Jesus Christ alone. Anything added or subtracted from this is another.
Yes, he does. He says it is roughly 23 percent, if I remember correctly. Would love to hear your testimony...my email is everydaymiraclespodcast@gmail.com. I have received hellish NDEs and I believe they are a gift, a second chance, or a powerful catalyst to a new and different life.
Escaping from a place that there is no escape from?! Literally unbelievable. What about the rich man? God will have to apologize to him! He wanted to warn his brothers!
And no, it's not 23%. Not even close. And other people know this. This guy hasn't got a clue what he's talking about. He just cherry picked some stories.
This should help you out. Facts are important to know: Note that NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES ARE RANDOM. The 800 pound gorilla in the room is a simple question: Why do seemingly good people sometimes experience terrifying NDEs, and MAFIA-LEVEL PEOPLE GET BATHED IN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? This has been researched and is known. Some even happen to small kids, some were 6 year olds. 3% of them reported a distressing or "hell"-like experience. How many 6 year olds is your afterlife torturing? Don't try to categorize them into "good people" and "bad people" categories, it's not true. See here: NANCY BUSH (IANDS) - "Negative experiences further complicate matters, because THEY HAVE NO DISCERNABLE RELATION TO WHAT KIND OF LIFE a person has lived. In other words, being a good person is no guarantee that you won’t get into a terrible car accident and suddenly find yourself experiencing what feels, in a very real sense, "hellish.” "As Bush has seen, “What we think people deserve has nothing to do with whether they have a glorious experience or a terrible one. Saints have reported extremely disturbing NDEs, while felons have encountered bliss. Although people have sometimes wondered whether good people have pleasurable experiences and bad people have distressing ones, RESEARCH HAS SHOWN NO SUCH RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN APPARENT LIFE DEEDS AND TYPE OF NDE. In spite of the findings of these prior studies, this erroneous stereotype persists.” "In addition, AMONG PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD MULTIPLE NDEs, SOME HAVE HAD A PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCE ONE TIME, AND A DISTRESSING EXPERIENCE ANOTHER, IN NO DEFINITE ORDER. NO EVIDENCE supports the conventional assumption that “good” people get pleasant NDEs and “bad” people have distressing ones. THERE IS NO HARD EVIDENCE THAT CHARACTER TRAITS “CAUSE” ANY TYPE OF NDE. The list of character traits that people assume help to create a distressing NDE include: being hostile, cold, repressed, suppressed, unloving, controlling, rigid, sinful, guilt-ridden, non-God-loving, fearful, mean. Although authors, even some researchers, have said those traits are connected to distressing NDEs, no testable evidence has been produced in support; THE LIST IS BASED ON GUESSWORK, ASSUMPTIONS, AND EXPERIENCERS’ SELF ASSESSMENTS (“I think I was unloving”), NOT ON FACTUAL EVIDENCE." "By contrast, THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS WITH A PERFECT FIT TO THOSE DESCRIPTIONS WHO HAVE HAD PLEASANT, EVEN BLISSFUL NDEs. Some describe themselves as having been unloving, even hostile, before the NDE. On the other hand, some kindly, friendly, peaceful, religious, loving people have had a really difficult experience. The observable characteristics of a person simply do not match up to the type of NDE. The weakness I find is twofold: first, that people are so often crippled by their fear and guilt about a literal meaning of the NDE as they understand it (punishment, unworthiness, blame) that THEIR LIFE BECOMES DEFORMED." NANCY BUSH (IANDS): "Now...into all this comes Marilyn Mendoza, a Louisiana woman with a PhD in counseling and a curiosity about what it is like to die in prison. She also wondered if the deathbed visions of dying felons might be especially difficult. So far as anyone knows, deathbed visions differ from near-death experiences only in the fact that their experiencers don’t come back afterwards. Otherwise, the descriptions are virtually identical. Mendoza’s findings are therefore applicable to the study of near-death experiences and are reported in the latest issue of the IANDS newsletter. Her study population is housed at Angola, one of the most notorious of U.S. prisons. In her words: “Angola is a maximum security prison that has been called the bloodiest prison in America. It houses 5,000+ men whose crimes range from mu*der, ra*e, and armed robbery to drug offenses. The majority of men who come to Angola die there." “As is common with most people, the experiences the caretakers described were pleasant. The most frequently seen visions were of family members. Caretakers reported that the dying saw mothers, grandmothers, sons, fathers, and other family members. The dying spoke of people waiting for them and calling them to come home. The dying also spoke of angels, beautiful gardens, gates and the Light. The men stared at corners of the room, at the wall and the ceiling. They reached for and called out to the deceased they saw. In other words, the dying prisoners saw and experienced the same things as the general population." "There is not a shred of evidence that good people get good experiences and bad people get bad experiences. The conviction that types of NDEs and deathbed visions are tied to moral qualities and behaviors simply does not hold up." See this: Dr. J. LONG: "To help understand frightening experiences, it is crucial to know that the SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY of experiences with hellish content THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED PUBLICLY ARE NOT NDEs. My physician background helps me distinguish NDE from non-NDE experiences that occur during a health crisis. In general, EXPERIENCES WITH UNEXPECTED ALTERATIONS OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT ARE NOT NDEs, ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO BE FRIGHTENING THAN ACTUAL NDEs. These experiences may include (but not limited to) intensive-care unit (ICU) delirium, drug experiences, and so on. Many individuals who had a frightening experience are very reassured when they understand that WHAT THEY EXPERIENCED WAS AN UNREAL PRODUCT OF ALTERED BRAIN FUNCTION."
And these Jesus NDE stories mean that when there is a contradiction, your experience proves nothing. See below: Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home." Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love." And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!" And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife." Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction." What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience." Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back." I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.” More? Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE." Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole. Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe." What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them." Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love." And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture." Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must." See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
How come none of the people who had near-death experiences and saw their family members and friends in heaven how come none report that after they returned to Earth from their nde experience that the persons they saw in heaven were righteous ,holy ,saintly people while they were alive on earth .. for example how come people who saw their brothers, grandfather ,friends, and others the people they saw in heaven they never say wow this person really deserved heaven because these were saintly ,holy, righteous, good, generous, loving ,kind ,merciful, people when they were alive on Earth ...it seems that with the near-death experiences stories everybody goes to heaven no one is denied Heaven everybody on this street you live on are seen in heaven this is suspicious because if you see people in heaven that led Christian lives on Earth but they're all in heaven no discrimination most people their grandparents their family members are mostly not saintly maybe one or two Saints out of a family of 20 people maybe one or two Saints but with these near-death Visions all the family is in heaven waiting for you and the new experiencer never tells us if they deserved to be in heaven based on their lives and their opinions so this is very suspicious that everybody makes it to heaven or at least 95%... Also I never hear nde EXPERIENCERS SAY THEY SO BIBLE PEOPLE IN HEAVEN LIKE APOSTLES, PROPHETS, PATRIARCHS, AND DISCIPLES FROM BIBLE...ALMOST NO APPEARANCE OF THE HUNDREDS OF BIBLE PERSONALITIES....SOMETHING IS VERY SUSPICIOUS ABOUT THE TOTAL LACK OF SEEING ANY HOLY BIBLE FIGURES IN THESE NDE HEAVEN TESTIMONY STORIES
Hey David! Some great questions here. I have JP Moreland booked and we are going to discuss some of these arguments about NDEs (for and against). We definitely must use discretion with all things as we have an enemy that is trying to destroy us.
I'll show you two short stories of two people who "made it to heaven". See if you think they were holy and saintly. See below: NOTICE THIS 4X NDE PERSON, DAN BRINKLEY: “If I didn’t go to hell, in the last four journeys, nobody's going to hell, okay,” Brinkley said. "And I was a, well, basically a jackass, and a typical southern redneck, all the things that go with that. I thought I was the toughest, most narcissistic, ego maniacal bad boy. I thought I was the center of the universe. And I won’t say I was overly materialistic. But I was materialistic. I had a legendary overhand left and a really good right upper-cut. So my fights lasted maybe three minutes. I had an easy answer to everything, and that was to hit it in the face. I could say that probably cynical, skeptical, anal retentive personality disorder, which is my basic personality, you know, and you add jackass, that you pretty well covered me. I JUST CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW IN THE WORLD, BASED ON ALL THE DOGMA THAT DESCRIBES GOING TO HELL, I HAVE NEVER BEEN THERE. About 27% of every time you hear somebody tell you about a near death experience, it’s not true. They’ve either emotionally or psychologically framed it to fit some kind of paradigm in their life, drug overdose, something that they can use that name and that term to brand their reality." He is counselling veterans, assuring them they have nothing to fear from death. NOW I ASK YOU, WHY DID THIS MAN NOT "GO TO HELL"? 4) Here's another NDE story told by the interviewer, M.R.: "In fact, one fellow that was shot in the chest three times and beat up, and in the ambulance he had an experience that was beautiful. So when I was interviewing he says - "What was I doing there?" "Does God ever make mistakes?" He was questioning the appropriateness. He had a good experience, life review, everything. Had all the good stuff. But he was wondering why he was there. Because HE HAD KILLED TWO PEOPLE in a parking lot a year or two before that. He said, this all-compassionate, all-forgiving God: “Gee, I’ve got it made the first time around.” NOW I ASK: WOULDN'T THIS MAN QUALIFY FOR "GOING TO HELL"? SO WHY DIDN'T HE?
Does this answer things for you? Lessons From The Light Professor Ken Ring: Behind the question, there is usually the implication that some persons should be disqualified for this experience ‐‐ ra*ists, for example, or others who have led reprehensible lives. The answer I have heard SEVERAL near‐death experiencers give to this question is unqualified: EVERYONE, THEY SAY, WILL COME INTO THIS LIGHT. THE LIGHT IS UNCONDITIONAL AND PLAYS NO FAVORITES. This reply invariably stirs an agitated response in some members of the audience, and someone will then play the trump card. "Even Hitler?," a voice will ask incredulously. I remember AN ANSWER THAT WAS GIVEN TO THIS QUERY BY A NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCER who, as a child, had suffered severe se*ual and physical a*use from her father. When she found herself in the Light, she asked it telepathically, "DOES EVERYONE COME HERE?" SHE WAS TOLD, "YES." Then, she herself asked the very question that represents the limit for most people: "EVEN HITLER?" "YES." And, then, pushing the Light even further, she found herself asking, "EVEN MY FATHER?" AGAIN, "YES." These life reviews are seemingly always tempered by a kind of mercy that allows most of us to re‐experience our lives without teeth‐gnashing anguish and remorse. THERE IS NEVER ANY CONDEMNATION ‐ YOU ARE NOT JUDGED. You are in the presence of A BEING WHO LOVES YOU UNCONDITIONALLY. You are treated with total compassion. YOU ARE ALREADY FORGIVEN. You are only asked to look at your life, and to understand. The presence within the Light helps you through it with the greatest and most tender compassion and love and, even at times, humour. YOU ARE NOT BEING PUNISHED; you are being shown, so that you can learn.
I've been looking for an NDE where somebody went to heaven, and asked people "where is such-and-such?"and were told "he/she didn't make it and is in hell", but I can't find one anywhere. Strange. But I have seen several where the NDEr saw a family member, and was thrilled because they said the person was awful, and they were glad to see they made it.
God I’m so angry. I think I’m going to bust. Please forgive me. When will all this be over ??? I want to serve you and I can’t walking around with this snake virus 🦠
I am sorry you are feeling so angry. Yes these times can feel crazy, and it’s hard to not have fear. I have days that are tough but when I limit the negativity and meditate on His promises it truly helps. I wish there was more I could do to help you. 🙏🏻
This is the resulting conversation I had during a near death experience in Dec 2022. How did you build the universe? Answer: It is a massive self directing simulation like South Park is to us, but much more complex. To set the stage properly it has to be realized God (our programmer), is not in his computer but sitting at it. He is not bound by the rules of our created simulation, any more than we are bound by the rules of south park or the Simpsons. He could be any one in his world, but because he can press delete, or adjust our reality to any thing he wishes, to us he is God. I asked God, "Are you perfect". His answer was no, not then. Are you now? Yes. I have an immortal body already of course, and will be in the new perfect heavens and earth along with you. I have dealt with every defect. I then asked "Was Adam and Eve perfect. His answer was no. Next, what about your re-action of deciding to throw Adam out and burn him instead of reviewing his schematics and correcting problems? Answer...I was a lot younger and more reactionary then. I never sinned to be born. What is this crock of original sin? Answer: It is a glitch in the matrix I can not correct, and it affects all new introductions to the simulation. What is Jesus? Answer: He is a patch program that if you use it removes this original defects called sin you inherit from the program. I have been asked many times why death has to occur for this transfer to take place. Answer: Because at this time it is the limits of my technology. The prayer includes several key words i will accent. Here it is. JESUS, I BELIEVE in you, FORGIVE me this original SIN and all others, COME INTO my life and help me to live it better. This patch does several things. One, the destination of your consciousness has now been transferred from hell, and paired with an immortal body that will be defect free and last forever. This body will also reside in a new defect free universe, on a redesigned, defect free earth. All this for the price of a one sentence prayer taking less than 30 seconds to pray. Why this way. Unknown, but I assure you it works. I have done it. This is his simulation, and he gets to choose the key words. What they are really does not matter, it is the effectiveness that counts. As for the many evils and the horrendous crimes of our reality they are all real and I asked about this. Answer: This simulation has too much wrong, so I no longer fix it. I have left you to the consequences of bad self direction, and the destruction it brings. The new bodies are ready, the new universe almost ready so I have poured my resources into this. The reality of the universe you are now in is about to suffer total cascade failure, and end. As for all who accept this route of using the patch, no matter what you were, you are now perfect, and with a new destination after death.. This applies to us all. What happens to those that do not accept. Answer: They end up in the trash, as they can not be allowed to destabilize the matrix of the new universe with there still present defects. Do they burn forever. I then saw a vision of Scotland and its burning bogs. God assured me that this is the fire the defective people that die will suffer from, not constant burning of individuals, but with fires that can spring up anywhere and do burn forever. I also was listening to a rabbi talk of hell and there version is quite different and much more merciful. I think there version must be considered correct as this belief system is originally there’s. They should know. th-cam.com/video/rI-Fpq1IzCQ/w-d-xo.html In short, this is a bad reality we are in. It will not be corrected. Like an old car, you get rid of it and can drive away in a nice new one. Pray the patch prayer and see. In short God is saying make this change this way because as right now it is the only solution available. th-cam.com/video/rF5KgpZXNeU/w-d-xo.html
These people don't agree with you. In fact, no one does: KARIN F.: "WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love." DEBBIE M.: "I thought at the Light, 'Oh no, not yet, I'm not ready yet!' At the same time I felt as though I knew everything I had ever wanted to know and more at that young age (5). I KNEW THAT WHATEVER HAPPENED IN THIS LIFE, IT WAS ALL OKAY. IT WAS ALL JUST EXPERIENCES, GOOD OR BAD. The feeling of complete UNCONDITIONAL LOVE was so very strong. I knew I belonged with it and I would be back with it, so I chose to go back to my body." Want another one? Here....ANASTASIA: "Time didn't exist here at all. It was as if I was one with everything. All I had to do was shift my awareness to something and I would know it. And the thing that was so clear, absolutely clear, is that we are a soul in a physical body and OUR PHYSICAL BODIES ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A SENSORY TOOL FOR US TO COLLECT SENSORY INFORMATION ABOUT THE PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE, and that it gets shared at the soul level because the soul ultimately wants to have a physical experience, and be able to create here in a physical life. The soul is absolutely complete. With that completeness, it meant THERE WAS NO GOOD OR BAD, NO RIGHT OR WRONG, AND THERE ARE NO LESSONS TO LEARN in the physical life IN A WAY THAT TRANSLATES TO THE TYPE OF EXPERIENCE OR A JUDGEMENT THAT YOU MAY HAVE ON THE OTHER SIDE. Actions did not translate to anything that meant that you would be judged, and that judgement is not like a sorting tool, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GO INTO THIS PLACE OR THAT PLACE BASED ON YOUR ACTIONS. It's not like we're trying to check boxes here to get into an afterlife that we ultimately want to have. It felt very much like we are learning to bring that bliss that's a part of us at the soul level into our physical experience. And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion." Wow!....SANDY D.: "I had a very euphoric feeling that was further fueled by the feeling of love emanating from this light. IT WAS COMPLETE, PENETRATING, LOVE, UNDERSTANDING, ACCEPTANCE. The light communicated telepathically with me, indicating that I am very welcome, but it is not my time to be here yet. It was authoritative but with a sense of loving humor. We discussed my life while I relived portions of it. We reviewed my life proceeding from oldest to younger events. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION AND NO RIGHT OR WRONG. THERE WAS COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING." More? Hell? What?....NATALIE SUDMAN: "In this non- physical state of being, there's a profound sense of belonging. EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYONE THAT EXISTS IS NOT ONLY ACCEPTED, BUT RESPECTED, AND CELEBRATED. WE HAVE THIS IDEA THAT A LIFE REVIEW IS LIKE 'JUDGEMENT'...AND WE'RE JUDGING OURSELVES LIKE, 'OH I FELL SHORT HERE' AND 'OH I WAS EVIL HERE'...NONE OF THAT MATTERS, IT DOESN'T MATTER. YOU'RE HAVING AN EXPERIENCE, AND THAT EXPERIENCE IS VALUABLE. I wasn't ever judging myself as good or evil, and saying 'oh this was a total disaster'...NO REGRETS INVOLVED. We're so used to thinking in terms of hierarchies. The teacher is better than the arms dealer, etc. THESE HIERARCHIES OF VALUE ARE NOT REAL. In essence, WHAT WE'RE DOING IS PLAYING ROLES. In the same way AN ACTOR MIGHT SAY 'LET'S PLAY THAT VILLAIN', or 'let me play that person who's in a wheelchair, let me see what that feels like'. BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT REALLY HURTING YOURSELF, YOU'RE NOT THAT 'IT', YOU'RE BIGGER THAN THAT. I remembered choosing my injuries and being satisfied with that, like 'yeah, this'll be great.' ALL OF US CHOOSE, OR AGREE TO, EVERYTHING WE EXPERIENCE. From a 'whole self' perspective we can understand difficulties in a very different way. We're all doing our own thing, and we're all doing something valuable, whether we realize it or not. THERE ISN'T ANYONE DOING ANYTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANOTHER. The ultimate experience of life is to remember who we really are." A. WILLIAMSON: "The one most important thing I learned from my NDE was that unconditional love for yourself is the most important love you can experience and give. It is the most important thing you can learn in this life, and it flows out to others when you learn to do that. We are loved, understood always, forever. WE ARE NOT VICTIMS, WE ARE WILLING PARTICIPANTS. On earth we take turns being a good person and a bad person. NOTHING BAD ON EARTH IS CONSIDERED BAD IN HEAVEN. It's all called a learning experience. I struggle with that while I'm on earth. THERE IS NO HELL. That is a man-made construct. There is no evil cabal, IT'S ONLY PEOPLE PLAYING THE PARTS THEY AGREED TO PLAY. Being a victim is also important and there are contracts for all those situations. We have to have contrast, that's why we leave heaven." What?....CAMRYN L.: "Yes, I knew that love was the greatest force around us and that we WE ARE ALL LOVE and love is the only thing that is real, that hatred and pain and hurt and all the negative things were not really the way it is, that we just create these negative thoughts/feelings/actions, but there is no place for these things in the real world which I consider to be where I went in my NDE...THERE IS NO EVIL THERE, SO I FEEL IT IS AN ILLUSION HERE, AND THAT THERE REALLY IS NO EVIL." D. BULLOCK: "On the other side, IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER, ITS JUST AN EXPERIENCE, ITS JUST PERCEPTION. So what we consider 'oh that was wrong', 'that person was wrong', it's a joke, THEY WERE PLAYING A ROLE. They decided to be...Napoleon...so they did what Napoleon does, war, and all kinds of other stuff." And what about this?....MICHELLE C.: "I had an experience where I was given the information that WE ARE SENSORY BEINGS HERE TO COLLECT EXPERIENTIAL DATA. There's a lot more to it. "
And these people don't agree with you either. How many more would you like to see? What about sin and/or karma?........... STEPHEN T.: "I was caught in a trough under water in huge surf. There was panic, knowing I am going to drown. I realized I had to give up, I could not hold breath any longer. Sudden calmness and resignation; lost track of body. Clear and graphic life review, as if events were cataloged. Sudden transformation into a realm of timeless absolute beauty, absolute love, and absolute infinity. The radiance was literally unbearable. THERE WAS ABSOLUTE FORGIVENESS, NON-JUDGEMENT, non-duality, timeless, NO BLAME OR RETRIBUTION, NO SIN, NO KARMA." What about sin?....J. SMITH: "I was totally aware. I was in blackness. I couldn’t see anything. I was thinking to myself, 'This isn’t the way it is supposed to be. I’m not supposed to know anything and I do. What on Earth has happened?' At that point I felt something leave my body. It was a whoosh. It went up through the top of my head. I could feel it and I could hear it. Just a gentle whoosh. At that point I found myself standing in a kind of gray mist. Then I knew I had died. 3 or 4 of the men that were in this group of people over on the hill, came to me and we met. This love said to me, 'YOU ARE MY BELOVED SOUL, I LOVE YOU WITHOUT CONDITIONS'. When I said to him, 'I know what’s going on. I know that I have died,' he said, 'Yes, that’s true, but you are not going to be staying here. It isn’t time for you to be here yet.' I said to him again, 'Everything since I passed over is so beautiful. Everything is so perfect. WHAT ABOUT MY SINS?' I ALWAYS FELT LIKE YOU HAD TO PAY FOR THEM. HE SAID, 'THERE ARE NO SINS, not the way you think of them on Earth. The only thing that has any meaning here is what you think.' Then he asked me a question. 'What is in your heart?' Then in some incredible way that I don’t understand at all, I was able to look deeply inside myself, really into the very core of me to my essence. I saw that what was there was love, nothing else. MY CORE WAS PERFECT LOVE, LOVING PERFECTION. I had complete love and acceptance for everything. I simply was perfect and loving. NOW THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO JUST ME. IT APPLIES TO ALL HUMAN BEINGS. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE. THAT IS OUR CORE. This love, this perfection, this God-ness." What sin?....PATSY D.: "I was born in Kansas in the heart of the Bible belt. I was raised a devout Christian. I had been baptized by the age of twelve, and taught the words of God; all the concepts of heaven and hell, as taught in the Bible, all of which I accepted and certainly believed. I was very religious. Suddenly I was floating above my body, which was lying in the carport. I had no sense of movement and I was not afraid. I was fully conscious. As they placed my body in the ambulance, I floated along with it. He put an oxygen mask over my body's mouth and applied electric shocks to the chest three times, each time taking a pulse. Halfway to the hospital, he stopped and told the driver to turn off the siren. I was dead. I turned around and was immersed in light. I WAS SURROUNDED BY UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, AND TOTAL ACCEPTANCE. A completeness, UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and absolute safety. I knew I was complete at last. NEVER HAD I FELT SUCH SAFETY AND SERENITY BEFORE. Suddenly, I had all knowledge. All that I had ever heard or known was swept away. I KNEW THAT THERE IS NO SIN. I knew that I had existed since the moment of creation, that I shall always exist, and that all consciousness is in the act of becoming. I GAINED THE KNOWLEDGE THAT ALL PEOPLE CHOOSE THEIR OWN TIME, AND CREATE THE METHOD OF THEIR DEMISE. I floated over to my body and sank down into it. My body began to shake and the sheet fell to the floor. The nurse screamed. The doctor ran to the table. I sat up, trying to get off the table. The nurse did not want to approach the table again. Everyone in the room were frozen in place. As if their brains could not process what their eyes were observing. He told me that I had been officially dead for one hour. I went to church the next Sunday and couldn't even sit through the service. I WANTED TO STAND UP AND TELL EVERYONE THAT THIS WAS WRONG AND HOW WONDERFUL THEY WERE."
There is no thing as such this once saved, always saved. Lies. The entire old and new testament is full of repentance, "go and sin no more," said by the Son of God Himself. Stop teaching this obvious doctrine of demons, that sinners think they can go to heaven when they keep sinning.
I have no idea what you are talking about on this one, but I will go back and listen. I loved this interview. We are all in a process of sanctification. We all must confess and repent as we keep breathing. I am sorry if there was something confusing.
This is from the Bible. I presume you believe the Bible: Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM. The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE". John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.” NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH. The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions. Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes. The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims. Timothy 6:16 God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever. Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going. Psalm 146:4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH. Ecclesiastes 9:2 It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow. Ecclesiastes 3:19 I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST. Psalm 6:5 For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol? Psalm 115:17,18 THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE. Isaiah 38:18 For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU. Psalm 30:9 What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU? Job 14:10 But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP. Ecclesiastes 7:2 It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
And its pretty hard to be disqualified by present or future trespasses THAT ARE NOT EVEN BEING IMPUTED TO YOU, isn't it. No use trying to contradict it, that passage is comprehensive and clear. After the cross, IT IS FINISHED. 2 Cor. 5:19 - God was in Christ, reconciling THE WORLD to himself, NOT IMPUTING their trespasses unto them, and has committed unto us the message of reconciliation.
Yes, I was trying not to fan girl out completely, but I was over the top with excitement. He has another book coming that is going to be amazing!!! Excited to read it!
Let's hope that next book is more objective and fully rounded out, and not full of more cherry picked stories that fit his pre-existing bias. Let's see some stories that include lord Yama and Yamatoots, talking dead roosters and turtles from Thai Buddhist experiences, Yamraj from Hindu experiences, virgin Mary and purgatory from catholic experiences, and Allah and virgins. Finally, let's also see some stories from all the people who say there's no judgement and no hell, as well as a few experiences from the 80% who see nothing. Then we can really assess things.
Watch Dean Braxton's videos, they are amazing and give you such anticipation of excitement to pass from this life. I am 72 and know my time here is short. My son passed 4 yrs ago and it ripped my heart out. These videos healed my broken heart. I can hardly wait to see him and my GOD!
Thanks for this kind reply. It makes my heart happy to hear it’s helped you heal. I have a guest who knows Dean and she says he’s just about the sweetest man you could ever meet. She adores him. Prayers for you Jack!
Never before have I come across any more thorough and clear sighted summary than this. Absolutely wonderful! Thank you both so much for this.
Wow thanks. This means so much. Honestly I am still in the clouds at the chance to host John Burke. When I started podcasting to share testimonies I had no idea these types of experiences would come to me In the numbers they have. I found his book on the Bible ap (youversion) after my campus pastors looked at me funny when I would ask them about these reports. His book really opened my mind and helped me see the correlation to scripture. It’s actually very exciting! The Bible does state that towards the end of days that the Holy Spirit will be poured out on the Earth and people will have dreams and visions…maybe this is part of how that translates? We definitely need to have discernment and stay grounded in the Word. I want to do all I can while I am here to point people to Jesus, but when it’s my time to go, I can hardly wait!
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Thank you for the lovely reply! And kudos for your calling to help people. I’m on a similar path myself, yet in a different way. I found God myself in 2018 and it has changed my life entirely, and even more so my way of thinking and prioritising. Bless you!
What you must mean is never before have you come across a more biased and one sided summary than this.
Have a look at this clear sighted NDE summary that includes a bigger spectrum, not cherry picked:
PAT S.: "I had a feeling of unconditional love, and it was as if all of a sudden I knew everything. AFTER PASSING ON IN THIS LIFE, THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AGAINST YOU, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID IN THIS LIFE."
LAURA Z.: "I felt in my heart that God is also all right with our fear, although it will not stop showing us love. God loves us regardless of everything and regardless of ourselves. EVERY CHOICE WE HAVE EVER MADE, OR EVER WILL MAKE, IS ALREADY ACCEPTED. FORGIVENESS IS NOT EVEN A THING. All of us is already LOVED and UNCONDITIONALLY, despite our ideas."
VICTOR P.: "We discussed my life while I relived portions of it. We reviewed my life, proceeding from oldest to younger events. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION, AND NO RIGHT OR WRONG. There was COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING."
No condemnation at all....TAMARA J.: "I then felt that I left this world and my body and was in the presence of God/Jesus. I BELIEVED THAT MY LIFE DEPENDED ON ME DOING THE RIGHT THING, AND TRYING TO BE A DIFFERENT PERSON. It was like every cell of my being was at peace and I had the joy of loving myself and being loved the way I always wanted to be. LOVE IS PERFECT, it is all encompassing, it is everything we have ever wanted, and IT IS WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. What I recall are a few messages. The message that THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION, that God loves us and we are all loved. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION AND NO JUDGEMENT during my NDE. We may choose to turn from God but God does not turn from us. I QUIT THINKING OF HELL THE WAY I USED TO AND NO LONGER CONDEMN ANYONE. Since my NDE I believe THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION."
Despite faults?....ERINN H.: "I was LOVED UNCONDITIONALLY DESPITE MY FAULTS and fears.”
Jesus again? CARL G.: "I was standing before Christ. He showed me my whole life, the good and the bad and all the rest. HE SAID, "THAT IS ALRIGHT, LIFE IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE."
JENNEANE E.: "Powerful UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and it is a feeling of just knowing what it is. I felt like I was a sinner and I WAS AMAZED THAT HE WOULD SHOW ME LOVE LIKE THAT DESPITE MY MISTAKES IN LIFE THAT MAY HAVE HURT OTHERS OR MYSELF."
More?
ANNE MURPHY: ""All there was, was the most unconditional love, compassion, pure and total acceptance with no judgement at all. I WAS SHOWN THAT THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AND NO HELL, NO OPINIONS, NO PUNISHMENT, not like what we are taught here, about a judgemental God and being sent to hell if you're bad, that was not the case.
Now what about this?....HERMAN V.: "I found myself falling into a black abyss and I knew that I was dead. Then I noticed my rate of fall slowing, and stopping. I noticed pinpoints of fuzzy light all around me, which gradually came into focus. It was then that I realized that a being dressed in a robe of brown, purple, and gold had broken my fall. The greatest awareness that came to me was that THE TEACHINGS OF CHURCHES WHICH FOCUS ON GUILT AND THE NEED FOR SALVATION VIA SOME CHANGE IN BEHAVIOR ARE WRONG. THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT, NO RATING OF ONE'S LIFE, NO PUNISHMENT FOR DEEDS DONE OR NOT DONE, just an overwhelming feeling that one is loved. Many times I'd like to take over the pulpit and tell people what is really on the other side, and that THE GUILT PREACHED BY CHURCHES IS COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE."
JEFFERY O.: "I 'knew' my whole life, every event both good and bad, yet standing in the presence of divinity I saw the pure love in all of it. THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT, ONLY THE 'KNOWING'; THAT IT WAS ALL PERFECT. That my entire life was created in love FOR me. EVEN MY CHOICES, GOOD OR BAD, HAD SERVED MY HIGHEST GOOD in every way. For I was only here to learn, and God, along with me, had provided the perfect path for my souls progression."
N. DANISON: "THERE'S NO PAYBACK, THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT, THERE'S NO HELL. Humans want revenge and punishment as part of their animal nature. GOD IS UNCONDITIONALLY LOVING AND HAS NO REASON TO WANT HUMANS' IDEA OF "JUSTICE", MUCH LESS REVENGE AND PUNISHMENT. THANKFULLY, GOD DOES NOT THINK LIKE HUMANS (BTW, I have worked in the justice system for 44 years)."
S. BOYD.: "After seeing what I saw in my NDE, WHEN WE DIE WE DON'T GO TO HELL, WE AREN'T JUDGED, and I need to be more accepting of others as well."
JO B.: "In one strand I was aware that Light knew me better than I knew myself. DESPITE ANY OF MY FOIBLES, ECCENTRICITIES, POOR DECISIONS, AND PLAIN OLD HUMANNESS, IT LOVED ME TO THE CORE. It found the seriousness with which I viewed myself, amusing."
I loved this Julie! I got the book a few years ago. I keep it in my bedside table and sometimes read a few pages before bed to think of Heaven. I’m so glad this is not my final home.
Yes!!! It’s so good! I am still on cloud nine after sharing this one. He was amazing and I know God will use it! Thanks for listening! Blessings!!💕💕💕
Amen
Such Love!
I've heard that some believe in, that because You're the Son of Elohim,
You suffered less,
during Your distress.
But then, they completely forget,
that You're the Son of man, yet;
Which learned obedience through all Your sufferings,
but always without any sins!
Thank You, Lord, that during Your life down here, You stood against all kind of temptation,
to prepare a way for my salvation!
I'm so grateful for those precious Words in the garden of Gethsemane,
in the middle of Your agony ;
"Abba Father....not as I will, but as You will!"
Nobody took Your life, Lord,
but You gave it freely,
went through all the pain, scorn and slaughter,
because You love us dearly!
How can I ever comprehend such Love, which eternal life did bestow?!
All I can do, is believe and receive,
forever praise Your Name ; which
salvation for me became!
I agree! When i found him i binged every lecture/interview he had and his books. So gooood hes changed my life 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you Jesus....much love...Amen
This is such an amazing interview. What a gift to be able to go to heaven at the end of our lives.
Thanks Nina. Thanks for being there for me when there were crickets on this podcast. You kept me going and I wouldn’t be here with John Burke if it wasn’t for you. I love you.💕
Shalom! I'm so grateful to Abba Father for finding your vlog and for listening to wonderful testimonies of Heaven! 😊
Last December I had some days where I was very very weak, and in the middle of it all I believe that I got an inner vision of Heaven! It was so vivid and I remembered every detail afterwards and have written it down.
I had actually been praying about this for years, I mean that if possible, I would like to have a vision or something like that of Heaven, as I consider it to be my real Home, where my heart is, you know, and Abba Father gave it to me when I needed it most.
I can truly say that it is a place that it is worth suffering a little while on earth for, and I'm determined to endure to the end 🔚, as I wanna go Home one glorious day, and spend the rest of my eternity with Abba Father, The Lord, the angels and all of those who have gone before me.
🌸 🌼 🌸 🌼 🌸 🌼 🌸
May the Lord's peace and grace be with you there! Warm greetings from Monica in Norway 🇳🇴.
Your remarks here blessed me so much because that's how I feel. I listen to all the near death experiences i can find. Knowing heaven is my real home, i am homesick hear.
But even so, want to fulfill my Father's will for me here. So many needs we see here, so many people who need to see love in action. Praying now, Father show me how to love my neighbor is my prayer. Let my neighbor be drawn to you through you in me.
I will see you one day in heaven, Monica. You have seen this place, i have not, well, only through the eyes of others. I am from Germany, living in the US, looking forward to this wonderful place, our home.
I absolutely love to hear about heaven! This was so fantastic!♥️Thank you both so very much!
Amazing!!
I'm happy you guys spoke about hell because too many people cherry pick from Scripture. People who preach there was no hell or no condemnation in their personal NDE and therefore it doesn't exist full stop need to be very careful because Jesus spoke more about hell then He did heaven. People who go to heaven experience a part of something and not everything. They've only scratched the surface. Just because someones experience was amazing doesn't mean that is the case for everyone when they die and don't come back.
Yes! It’s crazy we studied Max Lucado’s book Unshakable Hope last summer and there was a statistic about how many “Christians” did not believe that Satan was an actual real being (it was a high number). I was floored. It’s so clear in the Bible. I wish I could share the testimony a man sent me of his hellish NDE but he didn’t respond when I reached out. It was super powerful. What a wake up call! I have another testimony coming next month where either a demon (or Satan) shows up and tries to sabotage a miracle that a man receives but is rebuked. So good! Seeing how far the testimony is going now it is clear to see why the devil tried to take it. Thanks for listening! I am still on cloud 9 that I got this time with John!
Here are a few more wake up calls:
Judgement?....................
PAT S.: "I had a feeling of unconditional love, and it was as if all of a sudden I knew everything. AFTER PASSING ON IN THIS LIFE, THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AGAINST YOU, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID IN THIS LIFE."
LAURA Z.: "I felt in my heart that God is also all right with our fear, although it will not stop showing us love. God loves us regardless of everything and regardless of ourselves. EVERY CHOICE WE HAVE EVER MADE, OR EVER WILL MAKE, IS ALREADY ACCEPTED. FORGIVENESS IS NOT EVEN A THING. All of us is already LOVED and UNCONDITIONALLY, despite our ideas."
VICTOR P.: "We discussed my life while I relived portions of it. We reviewed my life, proceeding from oldest to younger events. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION, AND NO RIGHT OR WRONG. There was COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING."
No condemnation at all....TAMARA J.: "I then felt that I left this world and my body and was in the presence of God/Jesus. I BELIEVED THAT MY LIFE DEPENDED ON ME DOING THE RIGHT THING, AND TRYING TO BE A DIFFERENT PERSON. It was like every cell of my being was at peace and I had the joy of loving myself and being loved the way I always wanted to be. LOVE IS PERFECT, it is all encompassing, it is everything we have ever wanted, and IT IS WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. What I recall are a few messages. The message that THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION, that God loves us and we are all loved. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION AND NO JUDGEMENT during my NDE. We may choose to turn from God but God does not turn from us. I QUIT THINKING OF HELL THE WAY I USED TO AND NO LONGER CONDEMN ANYONE. Since my NDE I believe THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION."
Despite faults?....ERINN H.: "I was LOVED UNCONDITIONALLY DESPITE MY FAULTS and fears.”
Jesus again? CARL G.: "I was standing before Christ. He showed me my whole life, the good and the bad and all the rest. HE SAID, "THAT IS ALRIGHT, LIFE IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE."
JENNEANE E.: "Powerful UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and it is a feeling of just knowing what it is. I felt like I was a sinner and I WAS AMAZED THAT HE WOULD SHOW ME LOVE LIKE THAT DESPITE MY MISTAKES IN LIFE THAT MAY HAVE HURT OTHERS OR MYSELF."
More?
ANNE MURPHY: ""All there was, was the most unconditional love, compassion, pure and total acceptance with no judgement at all. I WAS SHOWN THAT THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AND NO HELL, NO OPINIONS, NO PUNISHMENT, not like what we are taught here, about a judgemental God and being sent to hell if you're bad, that was not the case.
Now what about this?....HERMAN V.: "I found myself falling into a black abyss and I knew that I was dead. Then I noticed my rate of fall slowing, and stopping. I noticed pinpoints of fuzzy light all around me, which gradually came into focus. It was then that I realized that a being dressed in a robe of brown, purple, and gold had broken my fall. The greatest awareness that came to me was that THE TEACHINGS OF CHURCHES WHICH FOCUS ON GUILT AND THE NEED FOR SALVATION VIA SOME CHANGE IN BEHAVIOR ARE WRONG. THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT, NO RATING OF ONE'S LIFE, NO PUNISHMENT FOR DEEDS DONE OR NOT DONE, just an overwhelming feeling that one is loved. Many times I'd like to take over the pulpit and tell people what is really on the other side, and that THE GUILT PREACHED BY CHURCHES IS COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE."
JEFFERY O.: "I 'knew' my whole life, every event both good and bad, yet standing in the presence of divinity I saw the pure love in all of it. THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT, ONLY THE 'KNOWING'; THAT IT WAS ALL PERFECT. That my entire life was created in love FOR me. EVEN MY CHOICES, GOOD OR BAD, HAD SERVED MY HIGHEST GOOD in every way. For I was only here to learn, and God, along with me, had provided the perfect path for my souls progression."
N. DANISON: "THERE'S NO PAYBACK, THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT, THERE'S NO HELL. Humans want revenge and punishment as part of their animal nature. GOD IS UNCONDITIONALLY LOVING AND HAS NO REASON TO WANT HUMANS' IDEA OF "JUSTICE", MUCH LESS REVENGE AND PUNISHMENT. THANKFULLY, GOD DOES NOT THINK LIKE HUMANS (BTW, I have worked in the justice system for 44 years)."
S. BOYD.: "After seeing what I saw in my NDE, WHEN WE DIE WE DON'T GO TO HELL, WE AREN'T JUDGED, and I need to be more accepting of others as well."
JO B.: "In one strand I was aware that Light knew me better than I knew myself. DESPITE ANY OF MY FOIBLES, ECCENTRICITIES, POOR DECISIONS, AND PLAIN OLD HUMANNESS, IT LOVED ME TO THE CORE. It found the seriousness with which I viewed myself, amusing."
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Don't let facts get in the way of beliefs:
Note that NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES ARE RANDOM. The 800 pound gorilla in the room is a simple question: Why do seemingly good people sometimes experience terrifying NDEs, and MAFIA-LEVEL PEOPLE GET BATHED IN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? This has been researched and is known. Some even happen to small kids, some were 6 year olds. 3% of them reported a distressing or "hell"-like experience. How many 6 year olds is your afterlife torturing? Don't try to categorize them into "good people" and "bad people" categories, it's not true. See here:
See this first:
NANCY BUSH (IANDS) - "Negative experiences further complicate matters, because THEY HAVE NO DISCERNABLE RELATION TO WHAT KIND OF LIFE a person has lived. In other words, being a good person is no guarantee that you won’t get into a terrible car accident and suddenly find yourself experiencing what feels, in a very real sense, "hellish.”" As Bush has seen, “What we think people deserve has nothing to do with whether they have a glorious experience or a terrible one. Saints have reported extremely disturbing NDEs, while felons have encountered bliss. Although people have sometimes wondered whether good people have pleasurable experiences and bad people have distressing ones, RESEARCH HAS SHOWN NO SUCH RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN APPARENT LIFE DEEDS AND TYPE OF NDE. In spite of the findings of these prior studies, this erroneous stereotype persists.”
"In addition, AMONG PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD MULTIPLE NDEs, SOME HAVE HAD A PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCE ONE TIME, AND A DISTRESSING EXPERIENCE ANOTHER, IN NO DEFINITE ORDER. NO EVIDENCE supports the conventional assumption that “good” people get pleasant NDEs and “bad” people have distressing ones. THERE IS NO HARD EVIDENCE THAT CHARACTER TRAITS “CAUSE” ANY TYPE OF NDE. The list of character traits that people assume help to create a distressing NDE include: being hostile, cold, repressed, suppressed, unloving, controlling, rigid, sinful, guilt-ridden, non-God-loving, fearful, mean. Although authors, even some researchers, have said those traits are connected to distressing NDEs, no testable evidence has been produced in support; THE LIST IS BASED ON GUESSWORK, ASSUMPTIONS, AND EXPERIENCERS’ SELF ASSESSMENTS (“I think I was unloving”), NOT ON FACTUAL EVIDENCE."
"By contrast, THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS WITH A PERFECT FIT TO THOSE DESCRIPTIONS WHO HAVE HAD PLEASANT, EVEN BLISSFUL NDEs. Some describe themselves as having been unloving, even hostile, before the NDE. On the other hand, some kindly, friendly, peaceful, religious, loving people have had a really difficult experience. The observable characteristics of a person simply do not match up to the type of NDE. The weakness I find is twofold: first, that people are so often crippled by their fear and guilt about a literal meaning of the NDE as they understand it (punishment, unworthiness, blame) that THEIR LIFE BECOMES DEFORMED."
NANCY BUSH (IANDS): "Now...into all this comes Marilyn Mendoza, a Louisiana woman with a PhD in counseling and a curiosity about what it is like to die in prison. She also wondered if the deathbed visions of dying felons might be especially difficult. So far as anyone knows, deathbed visions differ from near-death experiences only in the fact that their experiencers don’t come back afterwards. Otherwise, the descriptions are virtually identical. Mendoza’s findings are therefore applicable to the study of near-death experiences and are reported in the latest issue of the IANDS newsletter. Her study population is housed at Angola, one of the most notorious of U.S. prisons. In her words: “Angola is a maximum security prison that has been called the bloodiest prison in America. It houses 5,000+ men whose crimes range from mu*der, ra*e, and armed robbery to drug offenses. The majority of men who come to Angola die there."
“As is common with most people, the experiences the caretakers described were pleasant. The most frequently seen visions were of family members. Caretakers reported that the dying saw mothers, grandmothers, sons, fathers, and other family members. The dying spoke of people waiting for them and calling them to come home. The dying also spoke of angels, beautiful gardens, gates and the Light. The men stared at corners of the room, at the wall and the ceiling. They reached for and called out to the deceased they saw. In other words, the dying prisoners saw and experienced the same things as the general population."
"There is not a shred of evidence that good people get good experiences and bad people get bad experiences. The conviction that types of NDEs and deathbed visions are tied to moral qualities and behaviors simply does not hold up."
See this now:
Dr. J. LONG: "To help understand frightening experiences, it is crucial to know that the SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY of experiences with hellish content THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED PUBLICLY ARE NOT ACTUAL NDEs. My physician background helps me distinguish NDE from non-NDE experiences that occur during a health crisis. In general, EXPERIENCES WITH UNEXPECTED ALTERATIONS OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT ARE NOT REAL NDEs, ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO BE FRIGHTENING THAN ACTUAL NDEs. These experiences may include (but not limited to) intensive-care unit (ICU) delirium, drug experiences, and so on. Many individuals who had a frightening experience are very reassured when they understand that WHAT THEY EXPERIENCED WAS AN UNREAL PRODUCT OF ALTERED BRAIN FUNCTION, and not a real NDE."
You mean these ones? They say they were TOLD or SHOWN, not assuming. I have about 100 like this, if you'd like to see them:
Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home."
Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love."
And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!"
And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife."
Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction."
What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience."
Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back."
I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.”
More?
Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE."
Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole.
Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe."
What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them."
Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love."
And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture."
Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must."
See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
You’re so good at not interrupting - thanks - very helpful interview xx
Oh thank you!
LOVE THIS!! Thank you so much Julie and Pastor John! Going to share!
This aligns with my belief, concerning free will, God, Heaven and Hell. Great interview!
Thank you, Julie! Another beautiful reminder of His love for us. I paused the episode not even 10 minutes in and bought Imagine Heaven and the companion devotional. I look forward to each of your episodes. 💖 ☺
It was a gift to me to get a chance to interview him (I am still giddy about it). His book helped me so much as I needed something to help me discern when receiving testimonies through the podcast. I really want to host a study group with his resources but God is calling me to some other things at the moment. He has tons online that is free to watch and more answers to questions that I posted on links. I hope you enjoy the books!!! It’s such a joy to remember what is awaiting us on the other side! 🙌🙏🏻💕
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 ♥️
Mark 12 v 30 - 31 Love God & Love your neighbors. How often do we see that on earth that is broken and full of fighting, hating, & wars???
I’m so happy that I have found this channel again. I watched it a while back and really liked it. Subscribed!
Thanks so much for focusing on Heaven! So few pastors preach on it!!❤️
We all need to be reminded of what glory is coming in these crazy times. I did want to focus on heaven and on Jesus. I am literally in tears as I am putting this episode out today. Tears of gratitude and I just know God will use this to reach someone who is lost. I thought John did a beautiful job. I know we have work to do as believers, and I am happy to be here and serve the Lord, but oh wow am I excited to get to this beautiful place and see Jesus!!!!
@Robert God doesn’t send anyone to hell. People choose it for themselves. God is holy and did everything he could, including allowing the death of his own son, that you and your your loved one would not have to go to hell. God’s plan is that we spend our life and eternity with Him. It’s not hard. We only have to believe that Jesus died in our place and that God loves you. He does……even when you are angry and don’t want to believe it. I beg you to not make the same choice.
@@donna7612 Really? Can you change your mind about being tortured and leave? Why not? Answer that question and then you'll know just who is really doing the "sending".
Excellent, thank you so much. We have every reason to believe that Jesus Christ is the one true way to the father. I would also add the Shroud of Turin to the lineup. I encourage everyone to do an in depth investigation of the Shroud and you will see that it is the real deal. God left so much evidence for His existence and love for us that we have to be willfully ignorant not to see it.
Oh I will chime in about the shroud of Turin. My favorite vid on that was Jesus and the shroud of Turin. It is chock-full of scientific data that simply cannot be explained away and shows that that piece of cloth really is the burial cloth of Messiah.
Also, Ron Wyatt finding Noah's Ark. In the mountains of Ararat, like the bible says. It measured the exact length and width as stated in the Bible. Its on youtube I believe.
Also, look up on youtube the "genetic Adam". They took DNA from all the races, on all continents and EVERYONE has the same ONE Chromosome from one man thousands of years ago. This was mainstream science by the way. Just amazing.
I have backslidden greatly but with everything that is happening, i am coming back to faith, although I have never lost the belief of Jesus Christ and the Bible.
Amazing interview, I reallly enjoyed watching it ❤
I really enjoyed listening, it seems like an hour isn't enough. One thing he mentioned was the prophet Isaiah, amazing how 700 years before Jesus, God revealed it!
I know I had so many more questions I wanted to ask, but so much is in the book. Another question was if anyone ever claims to see God the Father…I assume if you get that far you have crossed the border and you don’t return, but if you listen to his interview with Heidi Barr (attached in links), she says she did sit in God the Father’s lap and John says he has heard these testimonies but didn’t put them in the book. So many more I could have asked…maybe I can ask for another interview? I feel so blessed to have had the time with him. He does also have so much out there online. It’s such great stuff!!!!
Here are a few more things from the prophets that he seems to have missed:
Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM.
The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE".
John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.”
NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH.
The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions.
Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes.
The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims.
Timothy 6:16
God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever.
Ecclesiastes 9:5
For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Ecclesiastes 9:10
Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going.
Psalm 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH.
Ecclesiastes 9:2
It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow.
Ecclesiastes 3:19
I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since
everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST.
Psalm 6:5
For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol?
Psalm 115:17,18
THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE.
Isaiah 38:18
For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU.
Psalm 30:9
What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU?
Job 14:10
But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP.
Ecclesiastes 7:2
It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
Thanks for sharing sister! You are a blessing! God bless you and your family!
Glory to God
Jesus is the Light John 8:12
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Ephesians 5:8 For at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light. Thank you my Lord Jesus, your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalm 119:105
I just can't get enough of testamony.
I am 100 percent with you. When i booked John for the podcast I don’t think I could could sleep the week before. I was so excited. When he talked about those moments on earth when we get a glimpse of heaven? I wanted to scream yes! Like right now! I get to interview John Burke! His book is the best. He’s the reason I felt validated to share what I felt God was leading me to share with ndes.
Have you been led to share this information as well?
Nintendo characters? Santa Clause?
For those who want to know the full story...
THE NDE STUDIES.....(Los Angeles Times excerpts)
Researchers estimate that around 17% of people have an NDE. That means about 80% don't.
Scratch beneath those alleged flat EKG lines and the stories are a veritable Twilight Zone of inconsistencies. Some near-death voyagers claim to have met God - BUT A FEW SAW ELVIS PRESLEY OR GROUCHO MARX, researchers say. Others get to heaven not through the famous "tunnel", but ABOARD GHOSTLY TAXI CABS, FERRIES THAT CROSS THE RIVER STYX, OR SPANGLED COWS.
Even some children - often touted as the best source of unbiased information - sometimes return from "death" CLAIMING THEY WERE GREETED IN THE OTHER WORLD by STILL LIVING TEACHERS and NINTENDO CHARACTERS.
HINDUS WHO BELIEVE IN YAMRAJ, the Hindu god of death, EXPERIENCED MEETING HIM. A Hindu girl "died" AND WENT TO HEAVEN ON A COW. Would that mean western people will be riding cows to heaven? Jews who don't believe in Jesus or "hell", experienced meeting God as described in the Old Testament, while messianic Jews experienced God as Jesus.
Dr. Richard Eby had an NDE and allegedly Jesus told him he had to back, and that he (Jesus) would be returning (2nd coming) before he died permanently. BUT DR. RICHARD EBY HAS NOW DIED AND JESUS HAS NOT RETURNED.
A few hospitals have placed signs in their cardiac units - with nonsensical messages visible only from above - BUT SO FAR NOBODY HAS RETURNED FROM DEATH CLAIMING TO HAVE FLOATED UP AND SEEN ONE.
In one study carried out, the experiences of 16 Asian Indians were compared with those of Americans, and IT WAS FOUND THAT THE INDIANS HAD ENCOUNTERED YAMRAJ, the Hindu god of the dead, WHILE THE AMERICANS HAD NOT.
You would expect that if any one particular religious account of the afterlife was true, NDEs would be pretty much the same. BUT THESE ACCOUNTS ARE SO VARIED AND ARE ARE ALL BASED ON CULTURAL EXPOSURE. IN INDIA, PEOPLE SEE HINDU GODS; IN SAUDI ARABIA ITS ALLAH, MOHAMED, AND A BUNCH OF VIRGINS. The kid from the book/movie Heaven Is For Real, saw a Jesus with sea-green blue eyes ON A RAINBOW COLORED HORSE, GOD WITH HUGE WINGS, YELLOW HAIR AND BLUE EYES; and ONE LITTLE GIRL WENT TO HEAVEN AND WAS GREETED BY A PORTLY MAN WITH A WHITE BEARD AND RED CAP, aka SANTA CLAUSE.
The Mapuche people of South America and residents of Hawaii are more likely to SEE LANDSCAPES AND VOLCANOES, whereas NDEs in Thailand rarely involve landmarks, tunnels, or light. For Tibetans, light features more heavily AS DO ILLUSIONS OF REINCARNATION. Europeans and North Americans often visualize beautiful gardens; intriguingly the Kalai of Melanesia are more inclined to SEE AN INDUSTRIALIZED WORLD OF FACTORIES. An NDEr's subjective recollections can be attributed to many factors: THE NDEr's PSYCHOLOGY, PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, BACKGROUND, ETC., NOT JUST CULTURE.
The terrain of Heaven also varies wildly - from gardens, forests, and CATTLE FILLED PASTURES in some accounts, to clouds, COMPUTER ROOMS OR CASTLES, in others. A TEXAN SAW BARBED WIRE FENCES IN THE AFTERLIFE. Micronesians describe LARGE NOISY CITIES WITH CARS AND SKYSCRAPERS.
Drug addicts, felons (murder), suicides, hedonists, abusers, mean people, and gay people have all claimed to encounter heaven. Strangely, people have claimed to enter some "hell" FOR THE SAME REASONS. Contradictions abound.
This is a wonder. Is the hereafter actually mining and refining raw materials needed to build castles, cars, barbed wire fences, computers, and skyscrapers? From where do they get this material and tools? Not to mention the raw materials and tools needed to construct an ever increasing number of those cages and cubes in the Christian hell, as a few claim. Who builds those cages? And which of the variety of "hells" do you actually go to? Christian? Buddhist? Spiritualist? Hindu? Muslim? Some other one? The answer seems to be whichever one the experience has been exposed to, as Thai NDErs regularly claim to encounter LORD YAMA AND YAMATOOTS, COMPLETE WITH TALKING DECEASED ROOSTERS, and being sentenced to Buddhist "hell" for butchering and eating chicken, then reincarnated as birds. DOES THAT MEAN WESTERNERS WILL UNKNOWINGLY BE HEADING TO BUDDHIST "HELL" FOR EATING CHICKEN? Thai accounts state that butchers become lumps of meat in Buddhist "hell", so what then awaits Western slaughterhouse workers?
Even in her rather homogeneous Western European clientele, Kubler-Ross could see the effects of early enculturation: " I NEVER ENCOUNTERED A PROTESTANT CHILD WHO SAW THE VIRGIN MARY IN HIS LAST MINUTES, YET SHE WAS PERCEIVED BY MANY CATHOLIC CHILDREN."
But there also are some hard-to-explain differences, Melvin Morse says. Whereas American near-death survivors are typically sent back by God because “it’s not your time yet,” INDIA'S AFTERLIFE VISITORS ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE TOLD THERE WAS A “CLERICAL ERROR.”
Even more curious: SOMETIMES THE BEING OF LIGHT IS ELVIS PRESLEY. Moody has chronicled at least two such sightings.
Yet the evidence for near-death paranormal powers remains shaky at best. TWO STUDIES HAVE FOUND THAT PATIENTS’ “OUT OF BODY” ACCOUNTS OF WHAT HAPPENED IN THE OPERATING ROOM WERE WRONG. So were the 1988 Armageddon forecasts hyped by Ring and others.
Michael Sabom, however, offers a compromise stance: He rejects the idea that they provide glimpses of a heaven or hell. "I’m not saying these people didn’t experience something odd. But I am saying that we should take it with a grain of salt, because IF ANECDOTES MEET YOUR STANDARD FOR WHAT QUALIFIES AS EVIDENCE, then you should probably start buying tin foil and food buckets, because THERE ARE JUST AS MANY PEOPLE WHO REPORT SEEING REPTILIANS AND WHO HAVE BEEN ABDUCTED BY ALIENS."
But what about veridical NDEs - near-death experiences in which the person supposedly sees something they couldn’t otherwise have known while ‘flat-lining’ and others are able to verify that what they saw is indeed correct. The most notorious example of this is Maria’s shoe. A lady named Maria reportedly left her body, floated around and saw a shoe on a ledge outside her hospital window, that she ‘couldn’t have possibly seen.’ Her critical care provider, Kimberly Clark, looked outside and saw the shoe, just as described. BUT WHEN RESEARCHERS TRIED TO TRACK DOWN MARIA TO CONFIRM CLARK'S STORY, THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO FIND ANY SUCH PERSON OR ANYONE ELSE TO CORROBORATE THE ACCOUNT. And when they placed a shoe on the ledge, it was clearly visible from the hospital room, PROVING CLARK HAD EXAGGERATED AT LEAST PART OF THE STORY. Here’s the topper. There is no record of Maria being in that hospital.
There is Dr. Melvin Morse's discovery of "a portal" in the brain that when stimulated, triggers a NDE. He writes that some are threatened by this, as the discovery makes the experience unreal.
Sixty years ago, Dr. Wilder Penfield, a neurosurgeon, poked around the right temporal lobe of some epileptic patients and discovered that they would hear heavenly music, relive their pasts in 3D, and have out-of-body visions. Similar experiments continue.
There’s growing evidence that the temporal lobe plays a huge role in creating NDEs. When patients had their brains scanned after an NDE, it was discovered that they had increased levels of temporal lobe activity compared with those in a control group. THAT COULD EXPLAIN WHY ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF PEOPLE HAVE NDEs. When Dr. Olaf Blanke implanted electrodes into the brains of patients, HE WAS ABLE TO TRIGGER SUPERNATURAL AND OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCES BY STIMULATING THE TEMPORAL PARIETAL JUNCTION.
Most people dont care about Jesus, or Heaven. It's amazing how people think their living forever.
I agree with you about what the Bible says about Jesus being the only way to the Father and Heaven. I believe we must choose to follow Him. I also think it is the job of the Holy Spirit to truly convict people. We can do our best to lead them to Christ and His Word, but we cannot get a person there without their heart opening up to Christ.
Nintendo characters? Santa Clause? Yamatoots? Yamraj?
For those who want to know the full story...
THE NDE STUDIES.....(Los Angeles Times excerpts)
Researchers estimate that around 17% of people have an NDE. That means about 80% don't.
Scratch beneath those alleged flat EKG lines and the stories are a veritable Twilight Zone of inconsistencies. Some near-death voyagers claim to have met God - BUT A FEW SAW ELVIS PRESLEY OR GROUCHO MARX, researchers say. Others get to heaven not through the famous "tunnel", but ABOARD GHOSTLY TAXI CABS, FERRIES THAT CROSS THE RIVER STYX, OR SPANGLED COWS.
Even some children - often touted as the best source of unbiased information - sometimes return from "death" CLAIMING THEY WERE GREETED IN THE OTHER WORLD by STILL LIVING TEACHERS and NINTENDO CHARACTERS.
HINDUS WHO BELIEVE IN YAMRAJ, the Hindu god of death, EXPERIENCED MEETING HIM. A Hindu girl "died" AND WENT TO HEAVEN ON A COW. Would that mean western people will be riding cows to heaven? Jews who don't believe in Jesus or "hell", experienced meeting God as described in the Old Testament, while messianic Jews experienced God as Jesus.

Wow. No words....
Only those that do not receive the gift from God, Jesus, Who died for us. will go to hell
My 2 dogs will greet me .. this I know in my heart. They are my best beloved
wow cool
Blessings
"More Than A Carpenter" by Josh McDowell is a very readable, well written and concise book that presents the historical evidence for the truth of Jesus Christ. It's what the Holy Spirit used to help "seal the deal" for me as a very skeptical ex muslim!
Wow I love this! I haven’t read that one, but my husband keeps copies in his car to hand out to people. He agrees it is very compelling. I am interviewing Dr JP Moreland and we are discussing his book on Experiencing Miracles and it is another that will challenge the skeptic. Excellent read as well.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Awesome! God bless you!! 💕
People better get right and repent before it’s to late for them. I love you Jesus Christ
Check these NDE stories, including Jesus, to get a full picture of what they were TOLD or SHOWN:
Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home."
Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love."
And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!"
And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife."
Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction."
What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience."
Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back."
I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.”
More?
Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE."
Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole.
Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe."
What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them."
Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love."
And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture."
Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must."
See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
If 23% of people come back from near death experiences reporting a hell experience, I think we can assume that those are just the ones who were honest enough to tell what happened to them.
It would have to be very embarrassing to tell people that you went to hell. It would naturally make people wonder what the heck that person had been up to, also.
Yes it is hard to say the exact number, since people are not as likely to report them. I don't think people have to be doing horrific things, I think they could just be so far from God and maybe they are wrapped up in themselves with pride? I don't know. I do believe we choose Jesus and I do believe the only way to heaven is through the Jesus just as it says in the Bible. I don't think it is about just being a "good person." He loves us, but he wants us to choose him back. I did have a person write to me who died and says he went to hell and admits he was living a pretty bad criminal lifestyle and that his experience changed his life completely. I tried to contact him by email to see if he would share but he didn't reply. I guess it would be hard to talk about.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 I think you’re absolutely right that we don’t have to be doing criminal activities in order to qualify for hell.
I have heard of so many stories of people who were dying and got healed when they were able to forgive others who had hurt them. I’m assuming that unforgiveness can be a path to the pit.
Yes we are to love The Almighty and Messiah, His Son and
to love others as ourselves.
Sometimes that ain’t easy! Well it is not easy if we try to do it on our own. But he is happy to lead us in those directions, isn’t he? ;-)
That's not true. It's not 23%, not even close. And any serious researcher knows this. And facts override beliefs. See below:
Note that NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES ARE RANDOM. The 800 pound gorilla in the room is a simple question: Why do seemingly good people sometimes experience terrifying NDEs, and MAFIA-LEVEL PEOPLE GET BATHED IN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? This has been researched and is known. Some even happen to small kids, some were 6 year olds. 3% of them reported a distressing or "hell"-like experience. How many 6 year olds is your afterlife torturing? Don't try to categorize them into "good people" and "bad people" categories, it's not true:
See this first:
NANCY BUSH (IANDS) - "Negative experiences further complicate matters, because THEY HAVE NO DISCERNABLE RELATION TO WHAT KIND OF LIFE a person has lived. In other words, being a good person is no guarantee that you won’t get into a terrible car accident and suddenly find yourself experiencing what feels, in a very real sense, "hellish.”" As Bush has seen, “What we think people deserve has nothing to do with whether they have a glorious experience or a terrible one. Saints have reported extremely disturbing NDEs, while felons have encountered bliss. Although people have sometimes wondered whether good people have pleasurable experiences and bad people have distressing ones, RESEARCH HAS SHOWN NO SUCH RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN APPARENT LIFE DEEDS AND TYPE OF NDE. In spite of the findings of these prior studies, this erroneous stereotype persists.”
"In addition, AMONG PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD MULTIPLE NDEs, SOME HAVE HAD A PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCE ONE TIME, AND A DISTRESSING EXPERIENCE ANOTHER, IN NO DEFINITE ORDER. NO EVIDENCE supports the conventional assumption that “good” people get pleasant NDEs and “bad” people have distressing ones. THERE IS NO HARD EVIDENCE THAT CHARACTER TRAITS “CAUSE” ANY TYPE OF NDE. The list of character traits that people assume help to create a distressing NDE include: being hostile, cold, repressed, suppressed, unloving, controlling, rigid, sinful, guilt-ridden, non-God-loving, fearful, mean. Although authors, even some researchers, have said those traits are connected to distressing NDEs, no testable evidence has been produced in support; THE LIST IS BASED ON GUESSWORK, ASSUMPTIONS, AND EXPERIENCERS’ SELF ASSESSMENTS (“I think I was unloving”), NOT ON FACTUAL EVIDENCE."
"By contrast, THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS WITH A PERFECT FIT TO THOSE DESCRIPTIONS WHO HAVE HAD PLEASANT, EVEN BLISSFUL NDEs. Some describe themselves as having been unloving, even hostile, before the NDE. On the other hand, some kindly, friendly, peaceful, religious, loving people have had a really difficult experience. The observable characteristics of a person simply do not match up to the type of NDE. The weakness I find is twofold: first, that people are so often crippled by their fear and guilt about a literal meaning of the NDE as they understand it (punishment, unworthiness, blame) that THEIR LIFE BECOMES DEFORMED. These kinds of experiences can be deeply traumatizing, enough so that reactions like those in PTSD may be commonplace."
NANCY BUSH (IANDS): "Now...into all this comes Marilyn Mendoza, a Louisiana woman with a PhD in counseling and a curiosity about what it is like to die in prison. She also wondered if the deathbed visions of dying felons might be especially difficult. So far as anyone knows, deathbed visions differ from near-death experiences only in the fact that their experiencers don’t come back afterwards. Otherwise, the descriptions are virtually identical. Mendoza’s findings are therefore applicable to the study of near-death experiences and are reported in the latest issue of the IANDS newsletter. Her study population is housed at Angola, one of the most notorious of U.S. prisons. In her words: “Angola is a maximum security prison that has been called the bloodiest prison in America. It houses 5,000+ men whose crimes range from mu*der, ra*e, and armed robbery to drug offenses. The majority of men who come to Angola die there."
“As is common with most people, the experiences the caretakers described were pleasant. The most frequently seen visions were of family members. Caretakers reported that the dying saw mothers, grandmothers, sons, fathers, and other family members. The dying spoke of people waiting for them and calling them to come home. The dying also spoke of angels, beautiful gardens, gates and the Light. The men stared at corners of the room, at the wall and the ceiling. They reached for and called out to the deceased they saw. In other words, the dying prisoners saw and experienced the same things as the general population."
"There is not a shred of evidence that good people get good experiences and bad people get bad experiences. The conviction that types of NDEs and deathbed visions are tied to moral qualities and behaviors simply does not hold up."
See this now:
Dr. J. LONG: "To help understand frightening experiences, it is crucial to know that the SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY of experiences with hellish content THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED PUBLICLY ARE NOT ACTUAL NDEs. My physician background helps me distinguish NDE from non-NDE experiences that occur during a health crisis. In general, EXPERIENCES WITH UNEXPECTED ALTERATIONS OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT ARE NOT REAL NDEs, ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO BE FRIGHTENING THAN ACTUAL NDEs. These experiences may include (but not limited to) intensive-care unit (ICU) delirium, drug experiences, and so on. Many individuals who had a frightening experience are very reassured when they understand that WHAT THEY EXPERIENCED WAS AN UNREAL PRODUCT OF ALTERED BRAIN FUNCTION, and not a real NDE."
I also notice you didn't mention that over 80% claim to see nothing. Nor did you mention that other religions "see" their own "gods". Like lord Yama and Yamatoots, Yamraj in India, and Allah and virgins in Saudi Arabia. You see, you need the FULL picture, not a biased and skewed one. And kids have claimed to have seen Nintendo characters, and one report of seeing Santa Clause, as well as seeing still living teachers. That's the FULL picture, not biased. So, what do you think?
And since you like NDEs, common logic means that when there's a contradiction, your "hell" stuff means nothing. Here are only a few that say they were shown or told:
Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here.

And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!"
And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife."
Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction."
What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience."
Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back."
I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.”
More?
Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE."
Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole.
Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe."
What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them."
Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love."
And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture."
Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must."
See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
I love this thank you both for making this video
John has done some amazing work and he has tons of free stuff online that you can find. I was so honored to have this time and I am happy you enjoyed it as well!
If God knows my heart…
I had so high hopes in God but i learned my lesson- he is a) just existing in my mind or b) not interested in my heart. I have watched 10000 testimonies, i tried everything those people said. I was able to move away from sin, from one day to another (meaning i am not free of cause). Love is my purpose. This world is evil. I dont live for the world. I wanted to know if God is real. He doesn’t even helped me with coming to better surroundings where i can also keep my Faith and my heart safe. Nothing. No screaming of pain was heard. So many people have a family and love, a home- and so many honest hearts received loneliness, pain and even suicide. This is the pure evil. No loving Jesus for me. Not even a middle finger from heaven. Whenever it came to action one was far- GOD. Giving up. I wanted to praise the lord who saved me. A testimony. One day feeling loved. Nothing. This God is not interested in that 😢
I am sorry to read about your heartache. I know you have watched lots of testimonies...have you ever tried to read the Bible? God often speaks to me through His word. Yes, the world is evil, but God is very real. That doesn't mean that we live from one supernatural encounter to the next, but it is a walk and a journey where we grow and draw closer to Him as we surrender more and more. God loves you. Jesus died for you. You are created in HIS image and He has a plan. I am praying for you today. You have a living hope and His name is Jesus. Blessings!
John 3:16
King James Version
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.JESUS is KNOCKING on your HEARTS DOOR. Romans 10:9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved
I heard biblical critics agree that Isaiah 53 was written by a different author, not Isaiah, a Dutero Isaiah.
Pray to salvation/ be born again.
The only way to heaven.
Jesus said: I am the way, truth ,and the life, NO one comes to the Father/God exept trought Me.
Confess with your mouth and belive in your hart❤ that Jesus is the son of God that died for the sin of the world. Forgive me God, i want Jesus as my Lord and savior.
You will be saved
Amen

Did Lazaras mention an afterlife after Jesus resurrected him?
Great question! So many have asked me that and i do not think it’s mentioned anywhere in the Bible. I guess it’s possible he had one and it was not documented? I can imagine 4 days would have made for the best NDE ever;)! One day we can ask him❤️
Good question. Here's the answer for you:
Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM.
The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE".
John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.”
NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH.
The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions.
Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes.
The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims.
Timothy 6:16
God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever.
Ecclesiastes 9:5
For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Ecclesiastes 9:10
Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going.
Psalm 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH.
Ecclesiastes 9:2
It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow.
Ecclesiastes 3:19
I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since
everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST.
Psalm 6:5
For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol?
Psalm 115:17,18
THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE.
Isaiah 38:18
For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU.
Psalm 30:9
What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU?
Job 14:10
But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP.
Ecclesiastes 7:2
It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
I’m distracted by the background noise it sounds like somebody’s writing or the microphone is moving or something but it’s very distracting
So sorry:(. I think the string from his headphones was making that noise and I didn’t realize it until we were well underway. Maybe try to listen on iTunes? I don’t know if that sound is any better? He’s one of my favs too… learned from this. Sometimes the air pods can be glitchy too.
God do not send anyone to hell.
Receive Jesus as your savior, He is the way, truth and life, NO one comes to the Father exept trought Me. God gave His only begotten son ,so we can come to heaven.
They send themselves
Brainwashing. So can they change their mind and leave their torture? Why not? Answer that question and then you'll know exactly who is truly doing the "sending".
Thank you for this but that microphone keeps making sounds and it’s very distracting. sounds like somebody is fiddling with something in the background.
I am so sorry. I think it was the cord on the headphones. I didn’t hear it at first. I hope you still got the content.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 But I must say thank you very much for this. You have saved my life today because I’ve been really really sick with Covid and it also knocked me into a major depression. I’ve been filling my days up with as much of these faithful stories as possible and asking God to please live in my heart and bring His joy back inside my life. Thank you for asking him to pray for your listeners. I didn’t want to live. I know He wants something more for my life - I’m just not sure what it is.
Oh my goodness! Thank you for sharing your feelings here. I am sorry you are struggling and dealing with Covid. Prayers for healing both physically and emotionally. I know it sounds cliche, but sometimes our biggest breakthroughs come after our hardest times. Hang in there and keep praying and seeking Jesus. I am so happy these videos can lift your spirits. I have so many more to post. I know this world feels so dark, but God is still on the throne and I do believe we are on the verge of revival. Praying blessings upon you! 🙏🏻💕
What a great interview, thank you! Question, is it blasphemy when he says ‘oh my gosh!’? even though he’s replaced the word ‘God’, we know that was the intention.
Thanks for the kind feedback. I was thrilled to get this interview with John Burke. Personally, I wasn't offended whatsoever by his statement in using, "gosh," but I know some may see it that way. I have an Aunt that says every explicative word starting in G (goodness, gosh, gee, golly, etc) is the Lord's name in vain and she only says, "hmmmm." I think that is taking it a bit far, but everyone has to decide what they feel is ok.
Does anyone have link to the interview with "Heidi" referenced at around 15:20 ? :)
She’s coming on my show:)! I have an older interview with John I can share here…let me find it. It’s on his Facebook page.

John 3:5
Jesus answered, "Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.
Acts 2:38
Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
34:34 "All say there is a hell." That should be said with a loudspeaker & repeated over & over!
Yes! It’s crazy how many people don’t believe in hell. Have you ever seen the testimony of the man who wrote 23 min in hell? This sermon was so powerful and laced with scripture all the way through…th-cam.com/video/NHYQk0tkyik/w-d-xo.html
Wow, really? The cherry picked ones? Better check these NDE stories and see if he's right. How many would you like to see? I have about 100 to show you:
Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home."
Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love."
And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE.

You might also want to consider these ones:
PAT S.: "I had a feeling of unconditional love, and it was as if all of a sudden I knew everything. AFTER PASSING ON IN THIS LIFE, THERE IS NO JUDGEMENT AGAINST YOU, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID IN THIS LIFE."
LAURA Z.: "I felt in my heart that God is also all right with our fear, although it will not stop showing us love. God loves us regardless of everything and regardless of ourselves. EVERY CHOICE WE HAVE EVER MADE, OR EVER WILL MAKE, IS ALREADY ACCEPTED. FORGIVENESS IS NOT EVEN A THING. All of us is already LOVED and UNCONDITIONALLY, despite our ideas."
VICTOR P.: "We discussed my life while I relived portions of it. We reviewed my life, proceeding from oldest to younger events. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION, AND NO RIGHT OR WRONG. There was COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING."
No condemnation at all....TAMARA J.: "I then felt that I left this world and my body and was in the presence of God/Jesus. I BELIEVED THAT MY LIFE DEPENDED ON ME DOING THE RIGHT THING, AND TRYING TO BE A DIFFERENT PERSON. It was like every cell of my being was at peace and I had the joy of loving myself and being loved the way I always wanted to be. LOVE IS PERFECT, it is all encompassing, it is everything we have ever wanted, and IT IS WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. What I recall are a few messages. The message that THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION, that God loves us and we are all loved. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION AND NO JUDGEMENT during my NDE. We may choose to turn from God but God does not turn from us. I QUIT THINKING OF HELL THE WAY I USED TO AND NO LONGER CONDEMN ANYONE. Since my NDE I believe THERE IS NO CONDEMNATION."
Despite faults?....ERINN H.: "I was LOVED UNCONDITIONALLY DESPITE MY FAULTS and fears.”
Jesus again? CARL G.: "I was standing before Christ. He showed me my whole life, the good and the bad and all the rest. HE SAID, "THAT IS ALRIGHT, LIFE IS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE."
JENNEANE E.: "Powerful UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and it is a feeling of just knowing what it is. I felt like I was a sinner and I WAS AMAZED THAT HE WOULD SHOW ME LOVE LIKE THAT DESPITE MY MISTAKES IN LIFE THAT MAY HAVE HURT OTHERS OR MYSELF."
Notice this one...ANDREW PETRO: "I didn't want to come back. I said I'm home and I want to stay here. THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT, THERE WAS NO HELL, THERE WAS NO GOOD AND BAD, THERE WAS NO BIG TALLY IN THE SKY, there was just the light consuming me with unconditional love. In which I was able to consume everyone else with unconditional love. I was stuffed back into my body, which by this time was found at the bottom of the lake, dragged up onto the beach, and my friends were on top of me pushing the water out of my lungs. When I popped back into my body, I immediately started coughing the water up from my lungs. BEING ON EARTH IS LIKE BEING IN A STAGE PLAY. EVERYBODY HAS A PART TO PLAY. THEY ALL HAVE COSTUMES. BUT IT'S NOT REAL. LIFE DOWN HERE IS AN ILLUSION, IT'S A GAME! Don't take it so serious! The light has a wonderful sense of humor. When I was in the light and I was observing all my life's activities, THERE WAS NOT JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NO GOOD OR BAD. THERE WASN'T GOOD OR EVIL. THERE WASN'T RIGHT OR WRONG. THERE WAS NO HIERARCHY. THERE WAS NO ONE LIGHT ANY BIGGER THAN ANY OTHER LIGHT, ALL LIGHTS WERE THE SAME. And when you're in the light looking at it, its different than looking at it now. In this world when I look at some atrocities, I feel really bad about it. It's a different type of feeling when you're in the light. It's observing and understanding you would not do that again. It's like looking at your life and being able to walk away from it like you would an intense movie. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION, THERE WAS NO BLAMING, NO SHAME, THERE WAS NOTHING BUT LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE. The light knew everything that I ever thought, did, or will do! UNCONDITIONAL LOVE MEANS UNCONDITIONAL FORGIVENESS. None of my religious experience was there. I was with the light. People ask, 'where do you go after you die?', and my answer is very short, you go to the light. Why do you go to the light? BECAUSE THERE'S NO PLACE ELSE TO GO. One of the questions I always get is, 'is someone like Hitler in heaven?', and MY ANSWER IS, THE LIGHT IS THE ONLY PLACE TO GO. THERE IS NO OTHER PLACE TO GO. So, the question answers itself. The purpose of life is to love unconditionally, and to accept unconditional love from others. Loving without expectation, and without exception."

The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions.
Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes.
The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims.
Timothy 6:16
God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever.
Ecclesiastes 9:5
For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Ecclesiastes 9:10
Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going.
Psalm 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH.
Ecclesiastes 9:2
It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow.
Ecclesiastes 3:19
I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since
everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST.
Psalm 6:5
For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol?
Psalm 115:17,18
THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE.
Isaiah 38:18
For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU.
Psalm 30:9
What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU?
Job 14:10
But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP.
Ecclesiastes 7:2
It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
Not listening to a video that starts out with disgusting ads.
I don’t run any ads. Everything I do is without income. It’s TH-cam that has started running ads. I am sorry it was so offensive. It’s one of my all time fav videos.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Just wasn't in the mood. Jewish Christians Steve and Jana Ben-Nun post their videos without ads. Well, I listened to it, had expected it to be more about NDEs. David Sunfellow did a great series a few years ago , people who'd encountered Jesus, only 13 or 14% do, apparently. Besides, I'm one of the 23% of Christians who believe Jesus didn't come to 'pay it all" for us, but to teach and live what it takes to "overcome the world". He said Pray without ceasing and love God with all your being and your neighbor, etc. And you must be Perfect even as your Father in Heaven is Perfect. Anyone think they can do that in one lifetime? Most Christians don't know that the doctrine of reincarnation was part of the canon until the 6th C AD when it was removed from the canon by Emperor Justinian under the pressure of the truly diabolical Theodora. (Asha Logos Channel pretty much proved that)
A channel called The 144000 did a series on:
By The Emperor's Command: Banning Reincarnation! It quickly runs through all the allusions to and assumptions of the doctrine in the OT and NT.
Jesus was present with the Creator from the very beginning: the Word just as John says.
In his church the pastor doesn’t lead the people in communion they leave it in the table so people just go take bread and juice
I have been listening to NDE accounts for many years now. I have yet to listen to one by a woman who has had an abortion. You would think with over 3k abortions on average per day in the United States alone that there would be thousands of nde accounts over the last 30 years. Why would I like to hear one? Because if people like Colton Burpo met his unborn sister (Miscarried) in heaven. It begs to reason aborted babies would be there too.
I heard a very compelling NDE of a woman who died during an abortion procedure, Iveren Yaji. She came back with an urgency to tell people about Jesus, he is the only one who can save 💗
@@ozztam There should be thousands of aborted accounts by now not just 1. If NDE's are to be believed, I need to hear those abortion accounts to judge for myself...I watched Iveren Yaji video. I don't believe it. Her body language and delivery look like someone who memorized a story.
Good question. I know a few women who had abortions when they were young, for different reasons, and I can tell you the shame and the regret they carry (especially if they have grown in their faith) is more than one can imagine. Coming forward to share their NDE would be extremely difficult (it is already difficult for the average Joe to do that), so I would guess it is because they don't want people to know? I don't know. Maybe God has a reason for this?
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 I agree that it would be difficult. Probably as hard as it gets. But you would think that someone(mother, sibling/grandmother etc) who met their aborted baby in heaven would be on a mission to save other babies/souls. Another question is there are thousands upon thousands of missing people in the United States. No NDE out of the estimated 700 a day in the United States alone can clear up ANY of the cases? Yet people meet Jesus, Mary and Joseph but nobody has thought to ask JMJ about the neighbors kid who has been missing for 10 years? Not 1? I could go on, but you get my point. And I do believe in NDE's, well at least 75% of them.
But, what about the NDEs that really contradict scriptures!? Those really neglecting Crist work on the cross!!? Please talk on that.
I think we touched on this a bit (how different cultures and faiths interpret these things), but I get it. We have to use discernment with these things. As I said before, these experiences aren't the Bible. The Bible has to come before everything else and I know John feels that way as he states that in his books.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 Hello again from Norway :-) Thanks so mutch for this answer, i really want to hear from you on this. I`v been a cristian for more than 30 years i`v been stunned by the number of unbiblical pracsises and doctrines reseeved by cristendom over the laste decades. And i have studied paranormal phenomenons up against the Bible on and off for some years now. The last couple of years i focused on NDE`s - And just now i think if (and i really hope i`m wrong in this) - if- NDE`s or even just SOME or MOST of them arent from God, they might somehow be from satan all of them. And if so, it is hily confusing. Because the real ones in the big picture points to the whole phenomena, witch mostly undermine Crists work on the cross. It is very difficult to manouver in this. So confusing. As i said all this makes med suspect the hwole ting. - If i were satan i might do the same, put in some semingly christian testimonies in order to decive millions of christians aswell. ( In to belive its no really need for Jesus, its all right to dye anyway) - I know - if im right in this - that is truly terrible. It must be one of the most terrible deceitfull actions in satans repotoar. - Can you somehow help me out of this terrible naging suspission? - Ill, read your book on the subject as part of me comming in the bottom of this.
If the Bible comes first, then you better read this:
Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM.
The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE".
John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.”
NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH.

I don't understand how religious people don't understand how people experience heaven but they believe in God but don't believe people experience heaven, makes no sense.
When Christians die their soul will go to heaven to be with Christ until the Second Coming of Christ.The fragments of bones and ashes of dead will be reconstituted like Adam was and brought to life by uniting souls with the bodies and judged to end up in heaven or hell.All heathens will be revived but will burn in hell for eternity, this is the promise of Christ.
Dragged out of the City, not Drug out.
Jesus is Lord God Almighty clothed in unsinful humanity and He is the author of eternal life to all who trust Him alone for salvation.
Jesus paid for all the sins of all the world at the cross (past ,present, and future). That payment is put to your account when you have believed on Christ alone for salvation.
God immediately declares you justified and gives you everlasting life as a free gift.
When you have believed on Christ alone for salvation then you have repented unto life!!!
Salvation is absolutely free, instant, and eternal, recieved solely by trusting in the person and finished work of Christ alone, and is certainly not conditional upon service to God.
Service (discipleship)if you choose it can cost you everything if you go all out in serving God.
Our good works, repenting of sins, and obedience, are solely for rewards in Heaven or a lack thereof and have absolutely nothing to do with salvation at all.
The only reason anyone will ever be in Heaven is solely by the perfect life, shed blood, death, burial, and resurrection, of Jesus Christ alone.
Anything added or subtracted from this is another.
Does he talk about hell, I died as a born again Christian and experienced hell.
Yes, he does. He says it is roughly 23 percent, if I remember correctly. Would love to hear your testimony...my email is everydaymiraclespodcast@gmail.com. I have received hellish NDEs and I believe they are a gift, a second chance, or a powerful catalyst to a new and different life.
Escaping from a place that there is no escape from?! Literally unbelievable. What about the rich man? God will have to apologize to him! He wanted to warn his brothers!
And no, it's not 23%. Not even close. And other people know this. This guy hasn't got a clue what he's talking about. He just cherry picked some stories.
This should help you out. Facts are important to know:
Note that NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES ARE RANDOM. The 800 pound gorilla in the room is a simple question: Why do seemingly good people sometimes experience terrifying NDEs, and MAFIA-LEVEL PEOPLE GET BATHED IN UNCONDITIONAL LOVE? This has been researched and is known. Some even happen to small kids, some were 6 year olds. 3% of them reported a distressing or "hell"-like experience. How many 6 year olds is your afterlife torturing? Don't try to categorize them into "good people" and "bad people" categories, it's not true. See here:
NANCY BUSH (IANDS) - "Negative experiences further complicate matters, because THEY HAVE NO DISCERNABLE RELATION TO WHAT KIND OF LIFE a person has lived. In other words, being a good person is no guarantee that you won’t get into a terrible car accident and suddenly find yourself experiencing what feels, in a very real sense, "hellish.” "As Bush has seen, “What we think people deserve has nothing to do with whether they have a glorious experience or a terrible one. Saints have reported extremely disturbing NDEs, while felons have encountered bliss. Although people have sometimes wondered whether good people have pleasurable experiences and bad people have distressing ones, RESEARCH HAS SHOWN NO SUCH RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN APPARENT LIFE DEEDS AND TYPE OF NDE. In spite of the findings of these prior studies, this erroneous stereotype persists.”
"In addition, AMONG PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD MULTIPLE NDEs, SOME HAVE HAD A PLEASURABLE EXPERIENCE ONE TIME, AND A DISTRESSING EXPERIENCE ANOTHER, IN NO DEFINITE ORDER. NO EVIDENCE supports the conventional assumption that “good” people get pleasant NDEs and “bad” people have distressing ones. THERE IS NO HARD EVIDENCE THAT CHARACTER TRAITS “CAUSE” ANY TYPE OF NDE. The list of character traits that people assume help to create a distressing NDE include: being hostile, cold, repressed, suppressed, unloving, controlling, rigid, sinful, guilt-ridden, non-God-loving, fearful, mean. Although authors, even some researchers, have said those traits are connected to distressing NDEs, no testable evidence has been produced in support; THE LIST IS BASED ON GUESSWORK, ASSUMPTIONS, AND EXPERIENCERS’ SELF ASSESSMENTS (“I think I was unloving”), NOT ON FACTUAL EVIDENCE."
"By contrast, THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS WITH A PERFECT FIT TO THOSE DESCRIPTIONS WHO HAVE HAD PLEASANT, EVEN BLISSFUL NDEs. Some describe themselves as having been unloving, even hostile, before the NDE. On the other hand, some kindly, friendly, peaceful, religious, loving people have had a really difficult experience. The observable characteristics of a person simply do not match up to the type of NDE. The weakness I find is twofold: first, that people are so often crippled by their fear and guilt about a literal meaning of the NDE as they understand it (punishment, unworthiness, blame) that THEIR LIFE BECOMES DEFORMED."
NANCY BUSH (IANDS): "Now...into all this comes Marilyn Mendoza, a Louisiana woman with a PhD in counseling and a curiosity about what it is like to die in prison. She also wondered if the deathbed visions of dying felons might be especially difficult. So far as anyone knows, deathbed visions differ from near-death experiences only in the fact that their experiencers don’t come back afterwards. Otherwise, the descriptions are virtually identical. Mendoza’s findings are therefore applicable to the study of near-death experiences and are reported in the latest issue of the IANDS newsletter. Her study population is housed at Angola, one of the most notorious of U.S. prisons. In her words: “Angola is a maximum security prison that has been called the bloodiest prison in America. It houses 5,000+ men whose crimes range from mu*der, ra*e, and armed robbery to drug offenses. The majority of men who come to Angola die there."
“As is common with most people, the experiences the caretakers described were pleasant. The most frequently seen visions were of family members. Caretakers reported that the dying saw mothers, grandmothers, sons, fathers, and other family members. The dying spoke of people waiting for them and calling them to come home. The dying also spoke of angels, beautiful gardens, gates and the Light. The men stared at corners of the room, at the wall and the ceiling. They reached for and called out to the deceased they saw. In other words, the dying prisoners saw and experienced the same things as the general population."
"There is not a shred of evidence that good people get good experiences and bad people get bad experiences. The conviction that types of NDEs and deathbed visions are tied to moral qualities and behaviors simply does not hold up."
See this:
Dr. J. LONG: "To help understand frightening experiences, it is crucial to know that the SIGNIFICANT MAJORITY of experiences with hellish content THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED PUBLICLY ARE NOT NDEs. My physician background helps me distinguish NDE from non-NDE experiences that occur during a health crisis. In general, EXPERIENCES WITH UNEXPECTED ALTERATIONS OF CONSCIOUSNESS THAT ARE NOT NDEs, ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY TO BE FRIGHTENING THAN ACTUAL NDEs. These experiences may include (but not limited to) intensive-care unit (ICU) delirium, drug experiences, and so on. Many individuals who had a frightening experience are very reassured when they understand that WHAT THEY EXPERIENCED WAS AN UNREAL PRODUCT OF ALTERED BRAIN FUNCTION."
And these Jesus NDE stories mean that when there is a contradiction, your experience proves nothing. See below:
Read and notice at the end that he had a changed life too: FROM IANDS - "I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. I died on the operating table. I went through the dark into the light - a soft bluish light. An entity (Jesus to me) was of the light, and the light was a doorway. I was not in this body, but I was as normal as my body here. We spoke without speaking. Joy was all over me. I was relieved to know it is real! Jesus said, "I know it hurts and I know it is bad. You have not done what you said you would do and must go back." I refused. Jesus said, "You will come here, just not now…not yet. I am sorry." Then I was on the operating table and heard someone say, "We got him” and then "Oh my God he is awake.” I AM NOW AN ORDAINED MINISTER AND I PREACH. I WAS SHOWN THERE IS NO HELL. We all go home."
Another Jesus story...KARIN F.: "She took me and placed me in a crystal-like bed and told me to rest because there were beings who wanted to honor and welcome me. I saw beings cued up to greet me. I spied Jesus among them and immediately felt as though something was wrong. I asked the being who brought me, how it was that Jesus wants to honor me. I told her that I was afraid that putting myself at the same level as Jesus would damn me to hell. SHE LAUGHED AND TOLD ME THERE IS NO HELL. WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love."
And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion!"
And this....SALLY P.: "Many times since, I've wanted to return to that place of love and confirmation. I learned that every human's belief in a supreme being is real and that EVERYONE goes to heaven, paradise, whatever. GOD'S FORGIVENESS TRULY DOES PASS ANY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, and HELL DOES NOT EXIST. Since my NDE, I have shared with bereaved friends and strangers, and tried to confirm others' hopes of an afterlife."
Here's another one for you...L. MASON: "I died. Time froze. Met God that appeared as a pure white light. Let me ask questions. Told me I had to return. EARTH IS A PLAY PEN. THERE'S NO HELL. WE ARE ALL FORGIVEN WHEN WE DIE. We all are connected when we die. In human bodies that link is very faint. That is the hole we try to fill with money/drugs/addiction."
What do you think?....NICHOLAS P.: "The Light told me many things, which I choose not to talk of. I was told, 'you have chosen an experience, you wish to live, and it is far from over.' I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO HELL. The original sin is most people don't know they are a spirit having a human experience."
Need more?....R. MORENO: "I'm Native American and experienced an NDE. I WAS TOLD THERE IS no religion and NO HELL. I was shown many things. It has not been easy being here as I didn't want to come back."
I'll keep going....B. ELSWORTH: "But personally, through my own NDE, I remember coming back and as beautiful and shocking to my ego as the experience was, I remember driving in my car and laughing to myself thinking, 'Well I wish I could tell my younger self he's NOT GOING TO HELL, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE!' YOU CAN'T DO ANY WRONG...even (ra*e + mu*der) in God's perspective, but that's not a license to do crazy stuff, God is just that unconditionally loving. HE CAN'T EVEN FORGIVE YOU, BECAUSE YOU CAN DO NO WRONG. We truly are inseparable from boundless infinite love.”
More?
Again?....LINDA S.: "The wrathful, vengeful God, as taught by my religion, instilled in me a deep fear of God, death and the afterlife. The NDE transformed me, showing that God is only a loving God, WHO DOES NOT JUDGE AND PUNISH. THERE IS NO HELL. I knew I was in the arms of a being who cherished me with PERFECT LOVE and carried me from the dark void into a new reality. There was no place that God did not exist and I was within God. I am an inseparable part of the light. THE TRUTH OF WHO I AM, INDEED, WHO WE ALL ARE, IS PERFECT LOVE as a creation of God. I had spent a lifetime of fear of judgment and now, standing with God, I HAD BEEN KNOWN COMPLETELY AND FOUND FAULTLESS. I KNEW GOD REGARDED ME AS PERFECT. Finally it all made sense. God could only love me because God is only love, nothing other than love. All is as it is supposed to be. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS OUR TRUE NATURE."
Again?....BILL V.: "I was drawn to a huge white and golden light that seemed to encompass the whole universe. There was simply no time where I was and it didn't exist. I felt instantly as if I knew everything, experienced the whole of creation. No heaven like what any religion states, NO HELL, just the purity of the universe as a whole.
Wow!....CHERIE B.: "I WAS SHOWN THAT THE CONCEPT OF HEAVEN AND HELL ONLY EXISTS IN THIS WORLD. It’s a term we have created using an agreed upon vocabulary. But the truth is heaven or hell exists right now, NOT IN THE AFTERLIFE. The afterlife is beautiful, pure, loving, and safe."
What punishment?....WILLIAM T.: "THERE IS NO HELL. THERE IS NO PUNISHMENT FOR WRONG BEHAVIORS, NOR REWARDS FOR RIGHT BEHAVIORS. THERE IS NO JUDICIAL PROCESS. The one-ness I perceived was what is referred to as God. THE PURPOSE OF OUR PHYSICAL EXISTENCE IN LIFE IS TO PROVIDE EVERY POSSIBLE VARIATION OF ACTION, so a knowledge base can exist. This is why people anguish over 'why would God let that happen?' ALL EXPERIENCE, GOOD, BAD, AND MIXED, IS PART OF OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. No matter how horrible the action and how horrible the experience, ALL EXPERIENCES MUST EXIST TO MAKE UP OMNISCIENT KNOWLEDGE. There isn't a single negative emotion on the other side. There's no need for them."
Have another one....A. JOHNSON: "THERE'S NO HELL, THERE'S NO PUNISHMENT. When you realize there's nothing to forgive, then there's nothing to punish either. I can tell you one thing for sure, THERE WAS NO JUDGEMENT. THERE WAS NOTHING I HAD EVER DONE THAT WASN'T COMPLETELY FORGIVEN, AND 'FORGIVEN' IN THAT CONTEXT MEANT IT WAS GONE. It did not exist. GOD WASN'T HOLDING ME ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT, God was loving me right through it, and IT WAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE FORGIVENESS. We dont have to prove ourselves to be loved by God. What I learned on the other side is that THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT ON US, NONE, ZIP, NADA. IN THE OTHER REALM THERE'S NO JUDGEMENT BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING TO JUDGE. We're all pure unconditional love."
And this one?....B. MACRELLI: "I too have died and brought back by doctors. In 2009 I was kidnapped and stabbed four times in the chest and died. I didn't feel it and was unaware that I was even stabbed, my spirit left my body and it was the best feeling in the world. Completely free, and you're right, THERE IS NO HELL. And I have also learned that religions are hard wired into the brain according to your culture."
Here you are....JEN F.: "I had an NDE and WAS TOLD HELL IS JUST AN ILLUSION, only love is real. Believe what you must."
See this one....AJ: "THERE IS NO HELL. I had my life review, I accepted and understood what was meant to be. I gave God the control and he brought me up again. It wasn't a choice, it's just a feeling that you know is right, but THERE'S NO NEGATIVITY, NO HELL."
How come none of the people who had near-death experiences and saw their family members and friends in heaven how come none report that after they returned to Earth from their nde experience that the persons they saw in heaven were righteous ,holy ,saintly people while they were alive on earth .. for example how come people who saw their brothers, grandfather ,friends, and others the people they saw in heaven they never say wow this person really deserved heaven because these were saintly ,holy, righteous, good, generous, loving ,kind ,merciful, people when they were alive on Earth ...it seems that with the near-death experiences stories everybody goes to heaven no one is denied Heaven everybody on this street you live on are seen in heaven this is suspicious because if you see people in heaven that led Christian lives on Earth but they're all in heaven no discrimination most people their grandparents their family members are mostly not saintly maybe one or two Saints out of a family of 20 people maybe one or two Saints but with these near-death Visions all the family is in heaven waiting for you and the new experiencer never tells us if they deserved to be in heaven based on their lives and their opinions so this is very suspicious that everybody makes it to heaven or at least 95%...
Also I never hear nde EXPERIENCERS SAY THEY SO BIBLE PEOPLE IN HEAVEN LIKE APOSTLES, PROPHETS, PATRIARCHS, AND DISCIPLES FROM BIBLE...ALMOST NO APPEARANCE OF THE HUNDREDS OF BIBLE PERSONALITIES....SOMETHING IS VERY SUSPICIOUS ABOUT THE TOTAL LACK OF SEEING ANY HOLY BIBLE FIGURES IN THESE NDE HEAVEN TESTIMONY STORIES
Hey David! Some great questions here. I have JP Moreland booked and we are going to discuss some of these arguments about NDEs (for and against). We definitely must use discretion with all things as we have an enemy that is trying to destroy us.
I'll show you two short stories of two people who "made it to heaven". See if you think they were holy and saintly. See below:
NOTICE THIS 4X NDE PERSON, DAN BRINKLEY: “If I didn’t go to hell, in the last four journeys, nobody's going to hell, okay,” Brinkley said. "And I was a, well, basically a jackass, and a typical southern redneck, all the things that go with that. I thought I was the toughest, most narcissistic, ego maniacal bad boy. I thought I was the center of the universe. And I won’t say I was overly materialistic. But I was materialistic. I had a legendary overhand left and a really good right upper-cut. So my fights lasted maybe three minutes. I had an easy answer to everything, and that was to hit it in the face. I could say that probably cynical, skeptical, anal retentive personality disorder, which is my basic personality, you know, and you add jackass, that you pretty well covered me. I JUST CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW IN THE WORLD, BASED ON ALL THE DOGMA THAT DESCRIBES GOING TO HELL, I HAVE NEVER BEEN THERE. About 27% of every time you hear somebody tell you about a near death experience, it’s not true. They’ve either emotionally or psychologically framed it to fit some kind of paradigm in their life, drug overdose, something that they can use that name and that term to brand their reality." He is counselling veterans, assuring them they have nothing to fear from death. NOW I ASK YOU, WHY DID THIS MAN NOT "GO TO HELL"?
4) Here's another NDE story told by the interviewer, M.R.: "In fact, one fellow that was shot in the chest three times and beat up, and in the ambulance he had an experience that was beautiful. So when I was interviewing he says - "What was I doing there?" "Does God ever make mistakes?" He was questioning the appropriateness. He had a good experience, life review, everything. Had all the good stuff. But he was wondering why he was there. Because HE HAD KILLED TWO PEOPLE in a parking lot a year or two before that. He said, this all-compassionate, all-forgiving God: “Gee, I’ve got it made the first time around.” NOW I ASK: WOULDN'T THIS MAN QUALIFY FOR "GOING TO HELL"? SO WHY DIDN'T HE?
Does this answer things for you?
Lessons From The Light
Professor Ken Ring:
Behind the question, there is usually the implication that some persons should be disqualified for this experience ‐‐ ra*ists, for example, or others who have led reprehensible lives.
The answer I have heard SEVERAL near‐death experiencers give to this question is unqualified: EVERYONE, THEY SAY, WILL COME INTO THIS LIGHT. THE LIGHT IS UNCONDITIONAL AND PLAYS NO FAVORITES. This reply invariably stirs an agitated response in some members of the audience, and someone will then play the trump card. "Even Hitler?," a voice will ask incredulously.
I remember AN ANSWER THAT WAS GIVEN TO THIS QUERY BY A NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCER who, as a child, had suffered severe se*ual and physical a*use from her father. When she found herself in the Light, she asked it telepathically, "DOES EVERYONE COME HERE?" SHE WAS TOLD, "YES." Then, she herself asked the very question that represents the limit for most people: "EVEN HITLER?" "YES." And, then, pushing the Light even further, she found herself asking, "EVEN MY FATHER?" AGAIN, "YES."
These life reviews are seemingly always tempered by a kind of mercy that allows most of us to re‐experience our lives without teeth‐gnashing anguish and remorse. THERE IS NEVER ANY CONDEMNATION ‐ YOU ARE NOT JUDGED. You are in the presence of A BEING WHO LOVES YOU UNCONDITIONALLY. You are treated with total compassion. YOU ARE ALREADY FORGIVEN. You are only asked to look at your life, and to understand.
The presence within the Light helps you through it with the greatest and most tender compassion and love and, even at times, humour. YOU ARE NOT BEING PUNISHED; you are being shown, so that you can learn.
I've been looking for an NDE where somebody went to heaven, and asked people "where is such-and-such?"and were told "he/she didn't make it and is in hell", but I can't find one anywhere. Strange. But I have seen several where the NDEr saw a family member, and was thrilled because they said the person was awful, and they were glad to see they made it.
God I’m so angry. I think I’m going to bust. Please forgive me. When will all this be over ??? I want to serve you and I can’t walking around with this snake virus 🦠
I am sorry you are feeling so angry. Yes these times can feel crazy, and it’s hard to not have fear. I have days that are tough but when I limit the negativity and meditate on His promises it truly helps. I wish there was more I could do to help you. 🙏🏻
This is the resulting conversation I had during a near death experience in Dec 2022.
How did you build the universe? Answer: It is a massive self directing simulation like South Park is to us, but much more complex.
To set the stage properly it has to be realized God (our programmer), is not in his computer but sitting at it. He is not bound by the rules of our created simulation, any more than we are bound by the rules of south park or the Simpsons. He could be any one in his world, but because he can press delete, or adjust our reality to any thing he wishes, to us he is God.
I asked God, "Are you perfect". His answer was no, not then.
Are you now? Yes. I have an immortal body already of course, and will be in the new perfect heavens and earth along with you. I have dealt with every defect.
I then asked "Was Adam and Eve perfect. His answer was no.
Next, what about your re-action of deciding to throw Adam out and burn him instead of reviewing his schematics and correcting problems? Answer...I was a lot younger and more reactionary then.
I never sinned to be born. What is this crock of original sin? Answer: It is a glitch in the matrix I can not correct, and it affects all new introductions to the simulation.
What is Jesus? Answer: He is a patch program that if you use it removes this original defects called sin you inherit from the program.
I have been asked many times why death has to occur for this transfer to take place. Answer: Because at this time it is the limits of my technology.
The prayer includes several key words i will accent. Here it is.
JESUS, I BELIEVE in you, FORGIVE me this original SIN and all others, COME INTO my life and help me to live it better.
This patch does several things. One, the destination of your consciousness has now been transferred from hell, and paired with an immortal body that will be defect free and last forever. This body will also reside in a new defect free universe, on a redesigned, defect free earth. All this for the price of a one sentence prayer taking less than 30 seconds to pray. Why this way. Unknown, but I assure you it works. I have done it. This is his simulation, and he gets to choose the key words. What they are really does not matter, it is the effectiveness that counts.
As for the many evils and the horrendous crimes of our reality they are all real and I asked about this. Answer: This simulation has too much wrong, so I no longer fix it. I have left you to the consequences of bad self direction, and the destruction it brings. The new bodies are ready, the new universe almost ready so I have poured my resources into this. The reality of the universe you are now in is about to suffer total cascade failure, and end. As for all who accept this route of using the patch, no matter what you were, you are now perfect, and with a new destination after death.. This applies to us all.
What happens to those that do not accept. Answer: They end up in the trash, as they can not be allowed to destabilize the matrix of the new universe with there still present defects.
Do they burn forever. I then saw a vision of Scotland and its burning bogs. God assured me that this is the fire the defective people that die will suffer from, not constant burning of individuals, but with fires that can spring up anywhere and do burn forever. I also was listening to a rabbi talk of hell and there version is quite different and much more merciful. I think there version must be considered correct as this belief system is originally there’s. They should know.

In short, this is a bad reality we are in. It will not be corrected. Like an old car, you get rid of it and can drive away in a nice new one. Pray the patch prayer and see. In short God is saying make this change this way because as right now it is the only solution available.

These people don't agree with you. In fact, no one does:
KARIN F.: "WE ARE ALL EQUAL IN SPIRIT FORM. I believed all that nonsense. I KNOW NOW THERE IS NO HELL, and God is unconditional love. Yes we are all connected and NO ONE IS MORE OR LESS THAN ANYONE ELSE. That our souls are eternal and WE ARE HERE TO EXPERIENCE LIFE. Love is what we are and will be again. I REALIZED THAT WE WERE ON EARTH AS A VACATION FROM ETERNITY AND BLISS. I have no fears. I have a knowing and I feel oneness with all things. Fear actually kills love."
DEBBIE M.: "I thought at the Light, 'Oh no, not yet, I'm not ready yet!' At the same time I felt as though I knew everything I had ever wanted to know and more at that young age (5). I KNEW THAT WHATEVER HAPPENED IN THIS LIFE, IT WAS ALL OKAY. IT WAS ALL JUST EXPERIENCES, GOOD OR BAD. The feeling of complete UNCONDITIONAL LOVE was so very strong. I knew I belonged with it and I would be back with it, so I chose to go back to my body."
Want another one? Here....ANASTASIA: "Time didn't exist here at all. It was as if I was one with everything. All I had to do was shift my awareness to something and I would know it. And the thing that was so clear, absolutely clear, is that we are a soul in a physical body and OUR PHYSICAL BODIES ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A SENSORY TOOL FOR US TO COLLECT SENSORY INFORMATION ABOUT THE PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE, and that it gets shared at the soul level because the soul ultimately wants to have a physical experience, and be able to create here in a physical life. The soul is absolutely complete. With that completeness, it meant THERE WAS NO GOOD OR BAD, NO RIGHT OR WRONG, AND THERE ARE NO LESSONS TO LEARN in the physical life IN A WAY THAT TRANSLATES TO THE TYPE OF EXPERIENCE OR A JUDGEMENT THAT YOU MAY HAVE ON THE OTHER SIDE. Actions did not translate to anything that meant that you would be judged, and that judgement is not like a sorting tool, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GO INTO THIS PLACE OR THAT PLACE BASED ON YOUR ACTIONS. It's not like we're trying to check boxes here to get into an afterlife that we ultimately want to have. It felt very much like we are learning to bring that bliss that's a part of us at the soul level into our physical experience.
And what about this?....ANNA M.: "I 'popped' from my body and was met with a bright light. THIS GAVE ME UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, and explained I had to return as I had three children to raise. Without words, I was told many mysteries of the world. THERE IS NO HELL, THERE IS JUST EXPERIENCE. NO GOOD OR BAD EITHER! There is only one God! HE LOVES US ALL, NO MATTER WHAT! HE DOES NOT JUDGE. I had been taught wrong by religion."
Wow!....SANDY D.: "I had a very euphoric feeling that was further fueled by the feeling of love emanating from this light. IT WAS COMPLETE, PENETRATING, LOVE, UNDERSTANDING, ACCEPTANCE. The light communicated telepathically with me, indicating that I am very welcome, but it is not my time to be here yet. It was authoritative but with a sense of loving humor. We discussed my life while I relived portions of it. We reviewed my life proceeding from oldest to younger events. THERE WAS NO CONDEMNATION AND NO RIGHT OR WRONG. THERE WAS COMPLETE ACCEPTANCE AND UNDERSTANDING."
More?
Hell? What?....NATALIE SUDMAN: "In this non- physical state of being, there's a profound sense of belonging. EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERYONE THAT EXISTS IS NOT ONLY ACCEPTED, BUT RESPECTED, AND CELEBRATED. WE HAVE THIS IDEA THAT A LIFE REVIEW IS LIKE 'JUDGEMENT'...AND WE'RE JUDGING OURSELVES LIKE, 'OH I FELL SHORT HERE' AND 'OH I WAS EVIL HERE'...NONE OF THAT MATTERS, IT DOESN'T MATTER. YOU'RE HAVING AN EXPERIENCE, AND THAT EXPERIENCE IS VALUABLE. I wasn't ever judging myself as good or evil, and saying 'oh this was a total disaster'...NO REGRETS INVOLVED. We're so used to thinking in terms of hierarchies. The teacher is better than the arms dealer, etc. THESE HIERARCHIES OF VALUE ARE NOT REAL. In essence, WHAT WE'RE DOING IS PLAYING ROLES. In the same way AN ACTOR MIGHT SAY 'LET'S PLAY THAT VILLAIN', or 'let me play that person who's in a wheelchair, let me see what that feels like'. BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT REALLY HURTING YOURSELF, YOU'RE NOT THAT 'IT', YOU'RE BIGGER THAN THAT. I remembered choosing my injuries and being satisfied with that, like 'yeah, this'll be great.' ALL OF US CHOOSE, OR AGREE TO, EVERYTHING WE EXPERIENCE. From a 'whole self' perspective we can understand difficulties in a very different way. We're all doing our own thing, and we're all doing something valuable, whether we realize it or not. THERE ISN'T ANYONE DOING ANYTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANOTHER. The ultimate experience of life is to remember who we really are."
A. WILLIAMSON: "The one most important thing I learned from my NDE was that unconditional love for yourself is the most important love you can experience and give. It is the most important thing you can learn in this life, and it flows out to others when you learn to do that. We are loved, understood always, forever. WE ARE NOT VICTIMS, WE ARE WILLING PARTICIPANTS. On earth we take turns being a good person and a bad person. NOTHING BAD ON EARTH IS CONSIDERED BAD IN HEAVEN. It's all called a learning experience. I struggle with that while I'm on earth. THERE IS NO HELL. That is a man-made construct. There is no evil cabal, IT'S ONLY PEOPLE PLAYING THE PARTS THEY AGREED TO PLAY. Being a victim is also important and there are contracts for all those situations. We have to have contrast, that's why we leave heaven."
What?....CAMRYN L.: "Yes, I knew that love was the greatest force around us and that we WE ARE ALL LOVE and love is the only thing that is real, that hatred and pain and hurt and all the negative things were not really the way it is, that we just create these negative thoughts/feelings/actions, but there is no place for these things in the real world which I consider to be where I went in my NDE...THERE IS NO EVIL THERE, SO I FEEL IT IS AN ILLUSION HERE, AND THAT THERE REALLY IS NO EVIL."
D. BULLOCK: "On the other side, IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER, ITS JUST AN EXPERIENCE, ITS JUST PERCEPTION. So what we consider 'oh that was wrong', 'that person was wrong', it's a joke, THEY WERE PLAYING A ROLE. They decided to be...Napoleon...so they did what Napoleon does, war, and all kinds of other stuff."
And what about this?....MICHELLE C.: "I had an experience where I was given the information that WE ARE SENSORY BEINGS HERE TO COLLECT EXPERIENTIAL DATA. There's a lot more to it. "
And these people don't agree with you either. How many more would you like to see?
What about sin and/or karma?...........
STEPHEN T.: "I was caught in a trough under water in huge surf. There was panic, knowing I am going to drown. I realized I had to give up, I could not hold breath any longer. Sudden calmness and resignation; lost track of body. Clear and graphic life review, as if events were cataloged. Sudden transformation into a realm of timeless absolute beauty, absolute love, and absolute infinity. The radiance was literally unbearable. THERE WAS ABSOLUTE FORGIVENESS, NON-JUDGEMENT, non-duality, timeless, NO BLAME OR RETRIBUTION, NO SIN, NO KARMA."
What about sin?....J. SMITH: "I was totally aware. I was in blackness. I couldn’t see anything. I was thinking to myself, 'This isn’t the way it is supposed to be. I’m not supposed to know anything and I do. What on Earth has happened?' At that point I felt something leave my body. It was a whoosh. It went up through the top of my head. I could feel it and I could hear it. Just a gentle whoosh. At that point I found myself standing in a kind of gray mist. Then I knew I had died. 3 or 4 of the men that were in this group of people over on the hill, came to me and we met. This love said to me, 'YOU ARE MY BELOVED SOUL, I LOVE YOU WITHOUT CONDITIONS'. When I said to him, 'I know what’s going on. I know that I have died,' he said, 'Yes, that’s true, but you are not going to be staying here. It isn’t time for you to be here yet.' I said to him again, 'Everything since I passed over is so beautiful. Everything is so perfect. WHAT ABOUT MY SINS?' I ALWAYS FELT LIKE YOU HAD TO PAY FOR THEM. HE SAID, 'THERE ARE NO SINS, not the way you think of them on Earth. The only thing that has any meaning here is what you think.' Then he asked me a question. 'What is in your heart?' Then in some incredible way that I don’t understand at all, I was able to look deeply inside myself, really into the very core of me to my essence. I saw that what was there was love, nothing else. MY CORE WAS PERFECT LOVE, LOVING PERFECTION. I had complete love and acceptance for everything. I simply was perfect and loving. NOW THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO JUST ME. IT APPLIES TO ALL HUMAN BEINGS. THAT IS WHAT WE ARE. THAT IS OUR CORE. This love, this perfection, this God-ness."
What sin?....PATSY D.: "I was born in Kansas in the heart of the Bible belt. I was raised a devout Christian. I had been baptized by the age of twelve, and taught the words of God; all the concepts of heaven and hell, as taught in the Bible, all of which I accepted and certainly believed. I was very religious. Suddenly I was floating above my body, which was lying in the carport. I had no sense of movement and I was not afraid. I was fully conscious. As they placed my body in the ambulance, I floated along with it. He put an oxygen mask over my body's mouth and applied electric shocks to the chest three times, each time taking a pulse. Halfway to the hospital, he stopped and told the driver to turn off the siren. I was dead. I turned around and was immersed in light. I WAS SURROUNDED BY UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, AND TOTAL ACCEPTANCE. A completeness, UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and absolute safety. I knew I was complete at last. NEVER HAD I FELT SUCH SAFETY AND SERENITY BEFORE. Suddenly, I had all knowledge. All that I had ever heard or known was swept away. I KNEW THAT THERE IS NO SIN. I knew that I had existed since the moment of creation, that I shall always exist, and that all consciousness is in the act of becoming. I GAINED THE KNOWLEDGE THAT ALL PEOPLE CHOOSE THEIR OWN TIME, AND CREATE THE METHOD OF THEIR DEMISE. I floated over to my body and sank down into it. My body began to shake and the sheet fell to the floor. The nurse screamed. The doctor ran to the table. I sat up, trying to get off the table. The nurse did not want to approach the table again. Everyone in the room were frozen in place. As if their brains could not process what their eyes were observing. He told me that I had been officially dead for one hour. I went to church the next Sunday and couldn't even sit through the service. I WANTED TO STAND UP AND TELL EVERYONE THAT THIS WAS WRONG AND HOW WONDERFUL THEY WERE."
There isn’t that many ma’am we are car does not know Jesus as Messiah is risen live in Lourdes nephew think so for one second you’re wrong
Sorry I am not clear about your question or comment...
There is no thing as such this once saved, always saved. Lies. The entire old and new testament is full of repentance, "go and sin no more," said by the Son of God Himself. Stop teaching this obvious doctrine of demons, that sinners think they can go to heaven when they keep sinning.
I have no idea what you are talking about on this one, but I will go back and listen. I loved this interview. We are all in a process of sanctification. We all must confess and repent as we keep breathing. I am sorry if there was something confusing.
@@everydaymiraclespodcast1395 He said it towards the end, sadly. Saved from past, present, and future sins is how he put it.
This is from the Bible. I presume you believe the Bible:
Lazarus of Bethany fell ill and died, and his body lay decaying in a tomb for four days until Jesus raised him (John 11:17). A whole chapter in John’s Gospel is devoted to the story of how Jesus brought him back from the dead. BUT THERE'S NOT A HINT NOR A WHISPER ANYWHERE IN SCRIPTURE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO LAZARUS' "SOUL" IN THAT FOUR-DAY INTERIM.
The same thing is true of every person in Scripture who was ever brought back from the dead, beginning with the widow’s son whom Elijah raised in 1 Kings 17:17-24, and culminating with Eutychus, who was healed by Paul in Acts 20:9-12. NOT ONE BIBLICAL PERSON EVER HAD ANY RECORDED ACCOUNT OF HIS OR HER POSTMORTEM "EXPERIENCE".
John 3:13 says, “NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN EXCEPT HE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN, THE SON OF MAN.” And John 1:18 says, “No one has seen God at any time.”
NOR DID THE HEBREW PROPHETS EVER MENTION EVEN THE SLIGHTEST POSSIBILITY OF SUFFERING AFTER DEATH.
The subjective recollections of those who claim to see heaven are wildly divergent and mutually contradictory - and seemingly informed by their preconceptions.
Those who think they saw "hell" have a HUGE VARIETY OF EXPERIENCES TAILOR-MADE TO THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. These vast differences are not visions of objective reality in an actual afterlife. They are projections of the individual’s current state, generated by their fears or desires, the regrets or their hopes.
The fact is that the vast majority of people do not claim to have these "visions" and experiences. It is actually a small minority who make these claims.
Timothy 6:16
God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, WHO ALONE IS IMMORTAL and who lives in unapproachable light, WHOM NO ONE HAS SEEN OR CAN SEE. To him be honor and might forever.
Ecclesiastes 9:5
For the living know that they shall die: BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Ecclesiastes 9:10
Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for THERE IS NO ACTIVITY, PLANNING, KNOWLEDGE, OR WISDOM IN SHEOL where you are going.
Psalm 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; IN THAT VERY DAY HIS THOUGHTS PERISH.
Ecclesiastes 9:2
It is the same for all: THERE IS A COMMON FATE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE WICKED, for the good and the bad, for the clean and the unclean, for the one who sacrifices and the one who does not. AS IT IS FOR THE GOOD, SO IT IS FOR THE SINNER; as it is for the one who makes a vow, so it is for the one who refuses to take a vow.
Ecclesiastes 3:19
I said to myself, As for the sons of men, God tests them so that they may see for themselves that they are but beasts. For THE FATES OF BOTH MEN AND BEASTS ARE THE SAME. AS ONE DIES, SO DIES THE OTHER- they all have the same breath. Man has no advantage over the animals, since
everything is futile. ALL GO TO ONE PLACE; ALL COME FROM DUST, AND ALL RETURN TO DUST.
Psalm 6:5
For THERE IS NO MENTION OF YOU IN DEATH; who can praise You from Sheol?
Psalm 115:17,18
THE DEAD DO NOT PRAISE the Lord, NOR ANY WHO GO DOWN INTO SILENCE.
Isaiah 38:18
For SHEOL CAN NOT THANK YOU; DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU.
Psalm 30:9
What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit? WILL THE DUST PRAISE YOU?
Job 14:10
But a man dies and is laid low; man breathes his last, and where is he? As waters fail from a lake and a river wastes away and dries up, so a man lies down and rises not again; till the heavens are no more HE WILL NOT AWAKE OR BE ROUSED OUT OF HIS SLEEP.
Ecclesiastes 7:2
It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, SINCE DEATH IS THE END OF EVERY MAN, and the living should take this to heart.
And its pretty hard to be disqualified by present or future trespasses THAT ARE NOT EVEN BEING IMPUTED TO YOU, isn't it. No use trying to contradict it, that passage is comprehensive and clear. After the cross, IT IS FINISHED.
2 Cor. 5:19 - God was in Christ, reconciling THE WORLD to himself, NOT IMPUTING their trespasses unto them, and has committed unto us the message of reconciliation.
Only human vocabulary to express these experiences though it doesn’t quite do it justice is ❤❤❤🤍🤍🤍💙💙💙
Yes, I was trying not to fan girl out completely, but I was over the top with excitement. He has another book coming that is going to be amazing!!! Excited to read it!
Let's hope that next book is more objective and fully rounded out, and not full of more cherry picked stories that fit his pre-existing bias. Let's see some stories that include lord Yama and Yamatoots, talking dead roosters and turtles from Thai Buddhist experiences, Yamraj from Hindu experiences, virgin Mary and purgatory from catholic experiences, and Allah and virgins. Finally, let's also see some stories from all the people who say there's no judgement and no hell, as well as a few experiences from the 80% who see nothing. Then we can really assess things.
