"He was never able to return to work but did drop in to see us a few times. He said "I met Jesus that day in the warehouse". He started going to church and was saved. He was a changed person."
Every NDE I've read or heard about has changed their lives around for the better.
My Atheist relative had spent his life drinking & going around in a drunken stupor...until one day when he was riding his motorcycle & had a head on accident with a 1 ton truck. His odds of surviving the accident was very slim.
He had a NDE & was watching the doctors as they were working on him...he said he was up in the corner of the room watching.
He also continued on with his journey (NDE)& saw something there so fearful that he'd turn white & would be visibly shaken whenever we asked him what else he saw.
He changed his life around...stopped drinking...went to church, and would only tell us that he never wanted to end up in the place that he visited, for all eternity.
That's pretty scary. Some of the NDE books report on hellish experiences, and I don't think we should ignore these reports. If Jesus had to die to save us, there has to be something - some place - from which we need saving.
