So, tell us.
Can you add me to a ping list?
Just as when a 16 year old goes through a period of euphoria and think they know it all after exiting the turmoil and instability of teenage transition consciousness,
A person who goes through a mid life crisis and puts a toe on the threshold of a transcendent God experience experiences a similar euphoria and looks for a following and writes books to share. They feel special due to the experience.
It’s a trap by the ego to develop a spiritual ego around the spiritual experience taking one away from truly finding God.
I’ve given this same warning to people with similar experiences who then went on to become famous, full of pride, and lose their God connection. It’s not worth it.
When we become full of ourselves we leave no room for God. If you feel you have found your purpose you deceive yourself as our only purpose is as God’s servant. Anything beyond that is ego.
I recently worked with a medical professional who had been writing books and lecturing at conferences as he felt he was communicating God’s messages. He realized it was an imposter spirit and ended up as an inpatient in the psychiatric ward for an extended visit.
,,,extended Visit.”
Sounds like “life.”
Hope your friend
Rejoins life soon.
What I have to say is 100% verifiable by the entire medical staff here!
You are blowing it out of proportion.
I’ve been there and speak from experience.
No problem.
Enjoy your journey.
He should tell his story
Bob,
Tell us Your story.
Some may scoff but God moves
Mightily in times as this.
I’ve been there and seen
His hand in Spirit Filled
Acts.
Scripture is Amazing in the way God
interacts with His humble servants.
Not to mention that Unbelievers
Are Convicted to the Bone.
A Spirit Filled follower of Jesus
is an Awesome Testament to
The Living God!
You had colon cancer? You have liver cancer, yellow jaundice and the horrible liver cancer itch, you were brought in dead, If not, you have NOT been whee I am take you negative bull over to cnn

I am starting today with a short letter to the editor of our local weekly’s and then thee full here and on ChristianPatriot.com

The people of Maine do t like being “told” anything. Good luck.
There’s nothing that person hasn’t done, tired, or experienced. He can one up ANYONE!
He’s so much better than the rest of us commomers.
After all, it’s not his fault we’re not all hyper spiritual as he is.
And he won’t hesitate to let you know about it, too, whether you are interested or not.
Yes, I had colon cancer.
I also had meningitis.
I died and went to Heaven, met Jesus and returned several times. Been straddling the fence between both realities for 30+ years.
I work with people who have had similar experiences on a regular basis.
Odd part is, I never fully returned to my physical body and have the unusual ability to read people’s souls in detail. When you are connected to Christ, everyone exists within you.
Like I said earlier, I just gave a warning to save some you from some difficult experiences. You follow your own path.
But do not allow the people receiving your messages to lift you up on a pedestal or the temptation to let go of your higher connection to God will cause you to take a pretty hard fall. Like I said, I work with people who have had similar experiences to yours on a regular basis.
Pride in your experience is poison.
metmom.... you sound like the Pharisees criticizing Jesus... you are so hilarious!!!
I share to help people understand their experiences as fear is the greatest obstacle to spiritual growth.
In John 14 Jesus told you that you will do the things that He does and even more when you are one with Him. Are you doing at least a few of these things?
“You had colon cancer? You have liver cancer, yellow jaundice and the horrible liver cancer itch, you were brought in dead, If not, you have NOT been whee I am take you negative bull over to cnn”
Such a reply would not come from anyone filled with Christ’s Spirit.
And you are Jesus, right?
