Near-Death Experiences As Proof of a God
Various Places —~*~— By Laz A. Mataz
On a thread posted by Lazamataz
I’ve been a fan of watching YouTube accounts of Near Death Experiences lately. There are certain common elements:
<>~<>
Leaving your physical body and observing people operating on them. In some cases, people were able to leave that location and see other people and places. One young lady left the operating room, travelling through walls, and went to find her father in the hospital.
There is, of course, the tunnel you travel through and the bright light at the end of it.
There, TO A PERSON, they describe a Life Review of all your significant actions, but not from your perspective, but how the OTHER person experienced it. Your best and your worst actions are all covered. Incredible peace and joy. Living forever in that doesn’t sound so bad.
In some cases, they describe vastly increased sensory perception. Vision beyond anything we can experience. Sound unlike anything we currently can hear, although all communication with other entities is telepathic.
Most examples detail Entities that some describe as ‘angels’ and others describe as ‘guides’. In many of the cases, they are reuniting with deceased relatives, including some that the subject doesn’t even know... ancestors such as great-great-great grandparents.
Since these individuals ‘come back’, they are given either the choice to decide to come back or to stay, or they are directed to, and in some cases, given a laundry list of things they are to accomplish. One example was striking; she was given a glimpse into her future that actually manifested. The primary lesson from the Near Death Experience was that only the love you gave others (including to animals) was important to the entities on the other side. One major entity, most desribed as ‘God’. It was the single most powerful, loving, non-judgemental entity of the entire group.
In some examples of NDE’s, they were informed that we are sent back time and time again, to other lifetimes, to live and learn new lessons.
Various neuroscientists have stated that simple biological processes of death produce these effects. Maybe the tunnel and the light can be explained by this, but the rest? No way. I cannot think that mere biological processes could manifest such a detailed series of accounts. Nor is there any evolutionary benefit to these processes, obviously... you are dead, right? Evolution is highly unlikely to be a factor here.
So this, to me, seems like quasi-scientific proof of a God. Now, religions have added all sorts of nonsense around these concepts, since almost to a person, the subject of an NDE describes a God that is utterly nonjudgemental and loving. So, take the 10 Commandments: Seems like the 10 Commandments were written to make OUR lives better, and it is not some cosmic scorecard that God is judging us on.
One person I know personally that had an NDE, would not talk a lot about it, but the one thing he did relate is that ‘all the nonsense religion spouts? The beings on the other side, they don’t care. Just be loving.’
And that aligns with what Jesus said: To love God with all your heart, and to love your fellow man.

Hi Jemian. Know it’s good to be back with your hubby and the work in your beautiful country - 2nd home
When do the boys arrive back for school? How old are they now?
Hope jet lag, malaria, and computer woes are minimal if not absent. Sorry I couldn’t get down to see you this trip. Lots of crazy & medical issues here past year.
The post above this one for you. Helpful to have your name there
Also, the best proof of God's existence is intelligent design (Romans 1:20).
Thanks for the post.
Hmm. well there are consequences for the way we live for sure, hopefully most will wake up before the find themselves in the wrong spot. I for one have experienced both sides, God is loving, but he is also just and has the final say.
Need to bring lunch to Mahjong group next Tuesday. Any ideas?
That is a good book. I read it years ago. I think I still have it - thanks for the reminder, Jim!
The book and movie both great
I especially liked the part when the boy asks mom about the stillborn child, I still getcgoosebumps now thinking about it. Imagine all those aborted children
As sad as it is, they all go straight to heaven.
“Leaving your physical body and observing people operating on them.”
This happened to me. I was having a front tooth filled and they gave me Nitrous oxide.
I floated up out of my body and watched them working on me.
I was told Nitrous oxide can do that to you. Needles to say I would never let them use Nitrous oxide on me again.

lasagna or a form of it? It’s easy to make for a big group. You could also do stuffed shells or cannelloni.
Lately I’ve been experimenting with a form of pasticcio. It’s actually Greek but my aunt’s in Trieste made a version of it that was more italian. Still had a bit of cinnamon but just meat between the pasta layers along with a bechamel sauce. I like to serve a marinara on top, just because too much Bechamel feels kind of heavy. to me.
“I need to get back posting here more often!”
Well, we all have our favorite threads.
all 5 seconds, lol!
good ones,now I’m a believer, lol
I saw In a Garten do pasticcio! Looks good. And great minds think alike. I had thought either lasagna or even a skillet lasagna with side salad. Thank you!!!
I was thinking a nice quiche with swiss cheese and ham, and a side spinach salad. But you’re right, CB....lasagna is perfect for a large group.
