After an aortic dissection and 8 hours on ice with a body temp of 65 degree’s while it was repaired to save my life, I guess I am damned because there were no lights, nothing and after 8 hours it was like one seconds time for semi-comfortable to trying to pull a respirator away from me post-op in the dark.
I posted something similar to this on another Website, but I know when I was dying in the ER, I don’t remember seeing any lights, dead relatives, nor do I recall floating above myself. I remember dark, blackness, and quiet. Maybe when people say hell is the absence of God, that is what they mean.
I know a man in his eighties that had one of these when he was about eight. He is still clear minded, but he describes this experience with a clarity that matches this story. I don’t know what it was, but something happened.
After 3 heart attacks, dad had an “electrical malfunction” of his heart and was declared dead, even to the point where his fingers were curling indicating that if they were able to resuscitate, he would probably suffer brain damage.
They did resuscitate, he did not have brain damage and he remembers nothing of the incident. We asked.
I wish he could have told us wonderful stories of how he almost made it to heaven but he remembered nothing.
Was supposed to have died in a car crash .. rainy night, slick and dark road, went off a small mountain road and hit a boulder.
Woke up in a Life Flight chopper and Scared the #ell out of the rescue team who ‘thought’ that I had died! (Fooled Them 8)
No lights, No visions .. Nothing
Never even knew that I had been ‘gone’ for over 20 minutes!
Btt
Perhaps you weren't clinically dead; but only in suspended animation. By no means should you conclude that you are damned unless you have neglected biblical learning in this life and are living in a state of fear and condemnation of the Holy Spirit. If so, get busy and start learning the Word, because we all die permanently at some point, and no one knows when.
