Is it possible to hear from our departed relatives?

Question

phone call, message of some sort...

Answer 1

Yes and it is a lot easier than people think.

Several years ago I had an unusual experience concerning an uncle, a distant relative who lived over a thousand miles away.

While 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.

Three 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.

I 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.
During 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.

I 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.

I hope this is of some help to you. Good luck. Love and blessings.

Answer 2

I do not believe it is possible, and here is why. Upon death the inner spirit separates, transcends, from the physical body to the spiritual life apart from the physical body. The physical body enables us to communicate with the physical world in physical ways (voice, sign language, written words, etc). in the spiritual world there is no physical vocal cords or physical attributes therefore it would be impossible for a physical form of communication. Can the dead or spirit world see the physical world and know what is going on? Just like the question can the spirit world communicate on a telepathic mental wave fashion with other spirits that are within the human bodies. That is a matter of faith and personal belief. There are times when I feel that physical humans receive some "feelings" or impressions that there is danger or to get away or avoid a potential situation and I do feel it is possible these feelings or impressions possible do come from that spiritual world around us. I cannot provide you proof via the Bible or disprove it via the Bible for like many other things the Bible does remain silent and leaves many things to the realm of Faith.

Communications between the spirit world and the physical world I feel are possible but not in the form of a phone call, white noise, or some audible voice. If the communications exist it's on a spiritual level that is more felt via an impression than it is hearing a voice.

Answer 3

That is a question everyone who has a departed one must know. Since well havent been to the final frontier in life and we search for answers about death. You cant believe hollywood motion pictures if that is what you mean, but there is so much about this world that we still do not know. But however there are individuals that have made the claim that you can.

Answer 4

Yes I know it is not supposed to be, but I lost My only sibling, a Brother, two years ago, to cancer, and one of My Best Friends died four days later. Lights come on and off, on their own. Phone rings a lot, no one there. Couple of other very convincing things happened. All I know is what I have seen. Maybe We just want it to be, either way it makes Me smile, think about Them, tell Them I Love Them, and it warms My heart. And others don't have to believe it, but My Husband does, He has seen many of the same things. It makes the pain a little easier, for a while.

Best Wishes, and God Bless

Answer 5

No. and don't try to get in touch either. If you heard from what you thought was a departed relative,it would be a demon trying to make you think there is life beyond the grave. They are dead til Jesus comes.From the Bible: The living know that they will die,but the dead know nothing.

Answer 6

You probably feel them around you but just haven't noticed
Do you get a chill up your right side that is a Male Spirit ?
Do you get a chill up your left side that is a Female Spirit ?
Do you ever get a smell or a memory of someone that has past over that is a message to you that they are around you.
Do you dream about them they can come to you in a dream as well.
I hope this has helped you to maybe take notice of what is going on around you now.
Love & Blessings

Answer 7

Yes. I think the most common way that has occurred in regards to other members of my family is having dreams about them, where they communicate some kind of comfort or message. I'm not going to go into detail here, because there are too many skeptics on this site. But if you want to learn more feel free to contact me.

Answer 8

No. When you die there are only two places you can go. If you have trusted and believe in what the Lord Jesus Christ did on the cross then you will be in God's heaven and you will not know anything that is going on on the earth nor will you care. 2 Corinthians 5: 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. If you have rejected the Lord Jesus Christ and you die you will go to hell. IN hell, you will in torment and not care about anything on earth. Mark 9: 44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

Answer 9

Absolutely not. The bible says that the dead know nothing. And if dead love ones did communicate with the living, then what is the use of the resurrection? Your either a ghost or in heaven or in hell. This makes no sense to me. I believe that you are asleep in death until the day of resurrection. The so-called -ghost that people see or hear are actually Demonic spirits. Oh how Satan loves to mislead people. If he can get one person away from biblical truth it makes his day. THE DEAD KNOW NOTHING!

Answer 10

I have had dreams where I felt they were communicating some way, and lots of people I know have had that experience. As for a phone call, not likely.
