Mysterious disappearances aren’t new....Yet, as bizarre as these cases may be, there seems to be an even stranger type of disappearance out there; people who vanish in full view of others, under circumstances where it seems impossible that they could have even gone far, let alone totally disappeared. These are the cases in which people were there one moment and gone the next, seeming to have just literally faded from existence, leaving us baffled and perhaps even questioning what we think we know about this mysterious world of ours. Let's take a look at the history of some of the more curious accounts of these spontaneous vanishings of people who by all indications seemed to have just ceased to exist.
...
Sometimes, not only did the person disappear, but they did so right before the eyes of witnesses, literally fading away in plain sight... In 1815, at a Prussian prison at Weichselmunde, a prisoner by the name of Diderici was doing a 10-year sentence for assuming the identity of his dead employer by dressing up in his clothes and a wig and trying to withdraw a large amount of money after the man had died of a stroke. Allegedly, one day Diderici was being led through the exercise yard in chains in a line of other prisoners, when something very odd began to happen. According to other prisoners, Diderici began to literally fade away, his body gradually becoming transparent and immaterial until finally his empty manacles and chains clattered to the ground as baffled prisoners and prison guards looked on. An inquiry into the case would turn up nearly 30 eyewitness accounts from both convicts and guards that reported the exact same thing; that Diderici had become slowly invisible until he was simply not there anymore.

I did google it....interesting. But you’d think we’d have come across a body after all this time.
“I did google it....interesting. But you’d think we’d have come across a body after all this time.”
The theories get weird, but yeah, if it was a real animal we’d have stumbled upon at least one body just by accident.
Have been rereading some of Charles Fort’s books.....lots of strange things have happened.
“Here is not here.”
My wife sometimes gets those “soft quiet voice” things when she prays.
One time she was on a committee to choose our next pastor. Prayed and prayed over names. “God - who should we pick!?”
The answer was “You’ll know.”
Not exactly what she wanted!! But it turned out being the right answer - in the end it was obvious who they should pick.
Same when she was with my dying mother. How long should she stay? Should she go back home to get the kids in school. What if mom lives for another six months. Prayed and prayed.
“Lord - when should I go back home?”
And again that same quiet voice.
With the same stupid answer! “You’ll know”!!
And of course - it was the right answer.
Yes - there is another plane of existence out there. Some are more tuned in than others.

There's a formula for that: C2H6O
“There’s a formula for that: C2H6O “
Yep!
My brother had a similar “mystery” trip when he found himself at LAX and the last thing he remembered was sitting in a bar in Boston.
Poof ! Gone !

Maybe it is a good thing we don't get all the answers the way we would want. And I have gotten a lot of wrong things or weird and/or never made sense.
I don't blame God for those. It feels like I was being trained and never ready for the big league ;-). I don't mind at all. One little miracle here and there is worth it and also consoling,
So, does there happen to exist some kind of nomination process that we can utilize to propose certain individuals for non-existence?
Makes sense to me. I’m a Christian and every time I see or hear Obama, the hair on the back of my neck stands on end, and I get a cold chill. Not kidding.
Yes, the cold is a sign. I heard a pastor say he went to some pagan meeting and when he walked into the room he felt he was in the arctic. He left.
My first response was like yours.
As believers, we have a human spirit which can perceive spiritual things.
Big deal - people disappear into thin air all the time when they owe money.
