Yoy have to remember Vinny that the bible was written some 70 years after Christ died.There is a lot of truth in the bible but there is also a lot of things that were taken out of the bible during Constantines reign. The early Christians believed in reincarnation. The bible has been misinterpreted for many years.So has the message of Jesus. I was brought up very religious and with the bible,But there was always a part af me that could not understand why God would destroy or test the people he made with all their imperfections.These past two years through serious illnesses has made me question every belief I was taught. And I thank God for it. Keep questioning.Thats a good thing. I believe these near death experiences are real because like you posted before, these people come back totally changed for the better; with more Love and compassion in their life. If this is from the so called devil he must be pretty dumb because it seems to me these expeiences bring people closer to God!
