I believe there is eternal life  when our spirits leave our physical bodies as God has promised to those who believe and have accepted his son, Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.\nBecause we are spiritual beings having a human experience on earth, I further believe that our spirits become one with the Holy Spirit again and we can choose to stay in Heaven as spirits or choose to come back to earth to continue our spiritual journey in the body of another human being.  I believe we have other opportunities to come back to earth to perfect our levels of spirituality.\nAgain, I believe that one has to be in touch with his/her spirit before any of this becomes clear and understandable.\n\nThose who have had near death experiences and have seen the light testify that they didn't want to come back here.  I believe their work on earth just wasn't complete.  But, from all I read and hear, those who have experienced it no longer fear death as we know and fear it.

Yes whilst awake and in my dreams too. They say that it in our dream state that family and friends come through to us with a message. Our brain will accept such an event rather than if we were to come face to face with a 'dead person'.\nMy grandmother comes through to me, she usually has two children with her - I do not know who they are. I have seen other members of my family as also friends who have passed.\nYes I have seen other people but do not know who they are.\nI also have seen orbs - spirit lights. They are breathtakingly beautiful. They leave behind a lovely and peaceful atmosphere.\nWhen I was young this frightened me. Now I am older I find it comforting.\nyia

I never saw one but I felt one.\n\nSeveral years ago I had an unusual experience concerning an uncle, a distant relative who lived over a thousand miles away. \n\nWhile driving my car I suddenly felt the unmistakable presence of this relative that I hardly even knew. He was more like someone I had heard about than someone I knew. It was very strange; it felt as though I was momentarily lifted right out of my physical body. I seemed to be suspended somehow beyond space and time, bathed in a love so intense It felt like I could have just disappear into it at any moment if It would have let me. It only lasted for a few seconds, but it seemed to last forever at the same time. I realize how crazy this must sound. The experience was so strong that at first I was afraid I was loosing my grip on reality. I finally managed to chalk it up to an over active imagination.\n\nThree days later I got a call from my aunt telling me that this uncle we are talking about had gone into a coma and died the day I had the experience. It felt like ice water had been poured down my back when she told me this. I had lost any real ideas of God or faith and had become somewhat of an atheist. Needless to say this experience caused me to rethink some of the conclusions I had come to. \n\nI feel blessed to now understand that even in our darkest confusion something loves us so much that it went out of its way to assist me and bring me back to a state of absolute certainty about Gods love for us.\nDuring the experience it seemed like there was a vast amount of information that I was somehow allowed access to. One thing that I came away from this experience understanding beyond any shadow of a doubt was that any Idea that God is unhappy with us or would judge or allow us to be punished for any reason is simply impossible. \n\nI can’t explain the love I felt with words. They simply don’t make words big enough or complete enough to do this. The only way I can begin to convey this love to you is to say that there was simply nothing else there. Nothing but love. No hint of judgment, no displeasure of any sort. It is as though God sees us as being as perfect as we were the day we were created. It is only in our confused idea of ourselves that we seem to have changed.\n\n I hope this is of some help to you. Good luck. Love and blessings. \n\nYour brother don

I know of two people who through their talks with me have reconsidered what they believe.\n\nOne with his believe in the big bang.\n\nA second person went from being a strong Christian to a deist.\n\nThrough my conversations with you specifically I now believe the possiblity of my consciousness joining a greater consciousness when I die,  and continue my spiritually journey on this path.\n\nIf that is a conversion to whatever label that is, I wouldn't say I've converted, I would say its something I strongly consider.

I've never seen one, but my son had an interesting experience which he's loathe to talk about to this day.  He was driving out to see a friend around ll:00 at night, when he saw a very large, very bright light in the sky above an empty field.  He became so frightened he had to pull over.  After what seemed like a few seconds, he continued on his way. When he arrived at his destination he found he'd been on the road for over an hour longer than it should have taken him to drive to his friend's.  He forgot all about it until the next time, months later, when, driving by the same field, he became unexplicably filled with terror.  He shook so hard he could barely drive.  He had this same irrational fear come over him every time he passed that field, so he simply found another route.  I encouraged him to try to find out more about it, but he says it's too scary & weird & he'd rather not investigate, preferring not to know what happened.  I do believe we are not alone in this infinitely vast universe.  I only wish I could prove it!  If there are ET's, I hope they show themselves in MY lifetime.  I'd love to know the truth!

In my opinion, "What the Bleep Do We Know?" had two main points: first, we are not separate from our environment or each other, and second, we create our experienced reality through our beliefs, both personal and common.\n\nI hope that WTB is a more visible indication that more and more people are beginning to consider, grapple with, and finally begin to live by these two principles. If that happens, I believe the human experience will be transformed from one of fear, suffering, and victimhood to one of freedom, power, and joy.

"If I submit to God, I’ll just become a puppet!"\n\n"A brilliant young man questioned Dr. Henrietta Mears about surrendering his life to God. He was convinced that becoming a Christian would mean the destruction of his personality, that he’d be altered in some strange way, and that he’d lose control of his own mind. He feared becoming a mere puppet in God’s hands. \n\n"So Miss Mears asked him to watch as she turned on a lamp. One moment it was dark, then she turned on the switch. She explained, ‘The lamp surrendered itself to the electric current and light has filled the room. The lamp didn’t destroy its personality when it surrendered to the current. On the contrary—the very thing happened for which the lamp was created: it gave light.’"\n\nVonette Bright, Renew a Steadfast Spirit Within Me

Yes, I have wondered that.   I also wonder what Jesus's followers felt and thought;  to have believed Him.

i've thought about it.  I guess we don't know.  Maybe we wake up when we die.  But then to we go to "heaven" or do we wake up in our real life.  If this is all a dream, then have our "past lives" if we really have had past lives, other dreams as well?

As a believer I say that not everyone will believe. Remember, the word states that there are two roads. The narrow road and the wide road and that many will take the wide road. Then also many will come but few are the chosen. So don't expect too many to change their beliefs, because seeing they won't see and hearing it the won't understand. We live by faith and not by sight. You can't expect them to believe in something they can't see. It's called the Thomas Theory.  Good for those that have opened their spiritual eyes to the greatness of our Lord.

I have seen the divine happen.  I have seen a drunk who hated people turn his whole life over after the divine saving power of Jesus Christ touched his life.  There is no greater miracle that can be seen than see a soul that is damned to hell be brought to the light through the shed blood of the Saviour.  see if you need that miracle too: www.needgod.com

pabbi my husband and I experience quite a few of these signs you speak of when we were first dating. For a full year any time one of us would look at the clock it was always 1:11 or 4:44 or 2:22. You get the point. Also one night we were arguing about our faith(I became a believer before he did)and there was this huge light in the sky in front of our house. I just laughed because I knew what it was but he insisted on driving for an hour all over to see if there was an explosion. We watched the news all week and there was nothing out of the norm. Also on a trip that I was scared to take I asked God to show me I was doing the right thing and no lie, we saw a man carrying a life size cross down the interstate on his back. But every day I see little signs but I guess because I am rather used to these (strange) things as you called them, I no longer notice alot of them. Unfortunate I suppose. Please, let's hear yours. I'm always interested in others experiences.

Here's what All About has to say in regards to this subject.\n\n___________\n\nWhat have we learned from life after death experiences? \n\nWe have all heard stories of people who have seemed to be dead - without vital signs for several minutes - only to be revived. Many of these people tell of traveling at high speeds through tunnels or of seeing brilliant white lights or even of coming face to face with God. \n\nThese life after death experiences raise many questions that directly reflect on Christianity - questions like, "What happens when we die?" and "Is it possible to communicate with the dead?" \n\nEven Christian believers disagree on what the Bible says on these matters. Some say those who die fall into a kind of dreamless sleep until Judgment Day. Others say the souls of the dead are immediately subjected either to Heaven or Hell, depending on whether they believe in Jesus. Still others say our souls remain conscious, but exist in a kind of limbo until the Day of Judgment arrives. \n\nLife after death experiences presuppose the soul remains conscious and aware after death. Those who have these experiences often report they retain the ability to see, to hear, to think, to feel - but they are unable to communicate with anyone. While the experience may be confusing, people report they are suffused with joy - partly as the result of being removed from the suffering of the body. \n\nIt is interesting that many life after death experiences are accompanied by a distinct sense of being two people - one physical and one spiritual. And the spiritual being is completely indifferent to the suffering self. \n\nPerhaps this is one reason the Apostle Paul tells us to die to ourselves, putting God ahead of our selfish desires: \n\n"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me" (Galatians 2:20). \n\nResearchers report that about one in seven of those who are revived in such circumstances report seeing a brilliant light or even beings they interpret as angels, Jesus, or God. Some people report a sense of having their lives "reviewed." \n\nThe effect of the review is often beneficial and may lead some to accept God, others to rededicate themselves to what they perceive as God's purpose for them. \n\nSome Christians have claimed that after-death experiences are beyond the purview of God and are therefore demonic in nature. But it seems unlikely that being subjected to demonic influences would lead so many people to a closer walk with God. \n\nIn Luke 9:50, Jesus is asked by His followers what to do about a man who is casting out demons even though he is not a disciple. Jesus replies, "Do not stop him, for whoever is not against you is for you." \n\nIn fact, for God to be truly omnipotent, He must be in control of these sojourns into death. Perhaps He uses them to direct His people. \n\n\nLife After Death: Why is it Such a Hot Topic?\nLife after death -- Why all the interest? Combine events like September 11th with the demographic phenomenon of the Baby Boom generation reaching its 50’s, and suddenly the reality of death from catastrophe and death from mere old age are upon us in a personal way. \n\nSo, it appears that more and more people are asking the same question that Job asked nearly 4,000 years ago in the Bible: "If a man dies, will he live again?" What could be a more fundamental question of life (and death)? Reincarnation theories are popular in Eastern religions as well as the many New Age variants. It seems people are comfortable with the idea of another chance to return to earth and figure things out or make things right. Some nihilist thinkers believe that death is the absolute end; but contrary to what many might think, most people believe that death is not the end. In some shape or form we go on. \n\nWhen Jesus was talking

As a nurse I have had a few encounters of the spirit world.  One time in ICU a pt saw a Angel sitting in the corner over my shoulder, I was talking to her and a chill ran down my spine and I shivered, that's when she told me that there was an angel in her room, it was there to comfort her and let her know her time was coming soon and to make things right with her family.  She called them all and after her last kid came in she died.  There was no problem medically that would indicate that death was eminent.  Another time I walked past a room with a patient who was unable to control the lights in his room but a light shone out from under the door but not in the window of the door. And more personally, My mother had an angel wake her up and tell her to change some things in her life or she was going to die.  I truly believe that we humans are not the only ones who walk the earth.
