Default Re: My NDE and experience whilst dead with Jesus

Isn't it amazing the examples that the "good guys" use to waken those of us who are ready to listen?

When I was a teenager, there were four of us who were good friends. We used, among other things, to fly model aircraft. A new guy pushed his way into our group and I must confess I didn't particularly like his manner or the way he treated people. It wasn't too long before I dropped out of the group.

I heard some months later that on one occasion, this bloke's plane had fetched up in some high voltage power lines. Being the sort of person he was, he apparently climbed up to retrieve it and made contact with umpteen thousand volts. It seems he survived but had become somewhat of a vegetable.

Jump forward now about eight years. I'd married and was living about 20 miles from where I worked and traveled to and fro by bus. One night, I sat next to a rather odd looking chap who started telling me his life's story. He told me that when he was a young guy, he knocked around with a bunch of blokes and he mentioned their names.

I was shocked to attention, these were the guys I'd knocked around with. He then went on to tell me how they all flew model aircraft and one day, his plane finished up in high voltage power lines. He had climbed up to retrieve it but when he reached out to grab it, there was a blinding flash of white light and within it he saw Jesus.

Jesus then advised him to give up his life style and the way that he treated other people, and try to put others before himself. It was also suggested that he think only pure and loving thoughts.

Up until this time I had been very skeptical of the Bible's contents - particularly on the topic of Jesus. But having known this fellow, and what he had been like years before, I was impressed with his conviction that he had actually been spoken to by Jesus in person. An individual who, like myself, he hadn't believed in.

That night, on the bus, on my way home from work, I had a moment of revelation that changed my life and beliefs for ever. For which I am eternally thankful.
