Are NDEs evidence of the soul?

[Edward429451]

Oh but I have also heard stories that they saw their body laying there and saw them trying to bring them back to life. Suppose they put for instance a red pot there and then bring em elsewhere, they can later ask what they saw and check.

But God don't work that way. The one who dies and has the NDE experience has his own personal proof, he was there! But none for us, we have to Believe in Faith!

I remember hearing one NDE where the guy was on the floor and not floating above the bed. He saw one of the surgeons had on mis matched socks and he reported that and when they asked the doctor if he wore mismatched socks, he admitted that he did!

There was a boy who saw things he couldn't know, that his mother had a miscarriage and he saw that one. Maybe it was this one:

I seen that one. That was Colton Burpo, the Pastors son and he met his sister in heaven! I believe his testimony. He has a new video out, he's all grown up now!

I believe that a lot of them are real. We have the clues we need. But no one brings back proof, and that's in line with what God is doing, we must accept Him in Faith, so the only one that gets proof is the person who has the NDE.

True. And that's like an experience I had with another person whom I'd never met before. The experience was proof of God for us both, but others would have had to just believe it happened.

On my way to work one day, I stopped in to buy a soda. I'd never been in that market before. I stood in line waiting to check out. When I got to the check out counter, with folks waiting behind me, the guy at the cash register looked up at me and started asking me Bible questions out of the blue. So I moved to the side, asked him for a piece of paper, and I wrote down the Bible Chapters where he could find the answers he was looking for. I then grabbed my soda and left for work.

I went back that same week, and asked the guy if he knew me, or had ever seen me before, and he said no, that that was the first time he had ever met me. I then asked him why he thought he could just look at me, and ask me Bible questions out of the blue? How would he even know whether I had even read The Bible? (At that time I was still in the Holy Spirit unction of doing deeper Bible study in all The Bible). The guy said he was having problems understanding about those Bible topics he asked me about, and he had prayed about it. He said he knew that God had sent me.

That experience he and I could never deny happened to us. Others would have to either believe it or not, but he and I could not reject God working in that way to answer the guy's prayers.

That's a good testimony and I believe every word of it because that's how God works, I've seen it before myself. T=What happened to you and that other man is just how God does things. I have a somewhat similar thing that happened to me. God did two miracles for for me in the same day. One I asked for in prayer, it was after my auto accident so my new truck was totaled and I was all busted up from the accident, broke my back in two spots. And I Know that God saved me in that accident so I of course re-devoted myself to the Lord. And I got up one day and did my reading and praying and it came to me that, I'm not foing anything to help the Lord and His Kingdom. I only read and pray. SO I prayed about that and said, Lord I want to help, but I am busted up and cant walk far and have a junky truck now which is unreliable...but I want to help and be a profitable servant for the Kingdom, so could you give me some way to help that I can do from my easy chair? (!!!) And I kid you not, 30 seconds after I said my Amens, the phone rang so I answered it and it was a friend that I hadn't seen in two years and he says, Hey Ed long time no see...uhh, you know about God, right? Would you mind if I came over to visit and picked your brain about God?! So I said yes and I immediately realized that God had answered my prayer!

So I went upstairs from the family room to put on a pot of coffee and had forgot that I just made my last 1/2 pot and I am out of coffee. And I felt bad because I couldn't even serve the man a cup of coffee?! So my instinct was to pray right then. I didn't have any money. I was self employed and all usted up so I wasnt working almost at all. But before I prayed, those scriptures popped into my head, Don't worry about what you will eat, drink or wear for the Lord knows your needs before you even ask for them...so I thought, ok, so I don't have to pray abbout it. So I didn't pray and just put it out of my mind.

Knock knock in less than 30 ,inutes, my friend was there at the door. I had just finished drinking the last cup of coffee, it was time to make a pot, but I had none. And the first thing my friend did when I opened the door was to hand me a 2LB bag of Gourmet Hawaiian coffee beans (!!) and he said, I brought you a present, I know you like coffee...
He did not know that I was out of coffee! I instantly knew that this could only be God that did this thing! He answered the prayer that I did not pray in less than 30 minutes! Why would He do that? and it struck me. I had thought about what His word says and acted on that, believing His word, that it's not something I have to worry about so when I chose to stand on the Word in faith, the Lord responded to that! And so answered that prayer that was not prayed!

Can you grasp the significance of what happened to me? The Creator of the Universe, Almighty God, had coffee delivered to my house! Literally, and who am I? I am nobody!
That's my God!!

And that's the thing these kind of examples of God's work in the lives of His servants exemplifies. If the believer will put theirself out there to God, asking Him to use them in some way to serve Him, He will give you tasks to do for Him.

My greatest fear is not recognizing when He is wanting me to do something, or not recognizing when He... has already done something in my life to help me and mine.

I see a lot of unbelief in many Christian circles. God don't talk to people, Miracles stopped with the Apostles and all sorts of unbelief.

It doesn't take much faith. Scripture says faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains, so it isn't a lack of faith. It's Unbelief. Even Jesus could not do many miracles in His home town because of their unbelief. They all knew Jesus as Mary & Joseph's kid.

If you think about it, for us who are born again, we are indwelled with the Holy Spirit which has all of the same resurrection power that raised Jesus from the dead...living inside of us. If we believe that, then we will live that and act on that. instead of staying in unbelief and not giving space to the miracle. Then we go from faith to faith and acting on that faith and placing a circumstance into God's hands constitutes belief. (In the original language, it is a verb, an action word which indicates an action in the flesh taking place. So we have to try. When we step out in faith with belief, then the ball is back in the Lord's court (!) and He will respond to that, if it is within God's acceptable will for you.

It might be easier to dismiss those aspects of the Lord and us as believers than to walk in it. But, the Lord died for us publicly so who are we to say we believe privately? That don't seem right. So everybody go lay hands on someone today, and believe...

God's will...will be done. We see that when we look at Jonah and how Jonah wanted his will to be done, but ultimately, it was God's. God works through us even when we struggle against Him.
