Has anyone here ever had a near death experience and got a glimpse of the other side?

Question

If so, what was it like? What did you see?

Answer 1

There is no other side to see. However, in such stressful situations, the brain will do weird things.

Answer 2

I went over three times over the course of my life: twice to heaven and once to 1134. The trips to heaven were pretty much the same: I was on the brink of death (take the time I was 8, and I was dog-piled by 5 of my brothers, suffocating). It was painful, then suddenly, it wasn't. I was looking down at me being dog-piled while I, my spirit, was floating maybe 15 feet above. Then came a tunnel of darkness with a single glowing dot at the end. I got scared at that point and attempted to cry for help, but I was already at the other end by the time I could draw breath (I use that term loosely). Someone clothed in light greeted me. "You're not here to stay," they told me. I knew it was an angel, and it took me a second trip to realize that ANGELS DON'T HAVE WINGS!!!! (Seriously, they don't. The only difference between their soul and ours, physically speaking, is that they're clothed in a brilliant white light.) After my brothers got up and almost called the police (or so they said), I felt yanked back down and reluctantly gave in. I was laying in the grass in my backyard on my back, and I could remember distinctly that I felt like I belonged in heaven, not on Earth. I spent the better part of 15 minutes "dead".

My time in 1134 was mercifully short. I felt like my bones were burning (again, I use that term loosely), and there were blood-freezing screams everywhere. Of course, I was adding to it with my own screams. There was also a laugh that I can never get from my head, one that froze your soul on the spot, one that reeked with evil. It could have been Lucifer I heard, but I doubt it. I was a twelve-year-old thief then, and I got hit by a car. When I came to, I was laying in the middle of the street.

The third time, I believe something was trying to kill me, But I don't know exactly what. First I was laying on my bed, and next thing I knew, I was choking and flailing around, looking as if I had a siezure. I was taken from my body for about 10 minutes and was told my life still wasn't over, and wouldn't be for a long time. The exact number of my age, day, month and year were given to me (August 28, 2031, when I am 83 years old), but I'm skeptical. The room was hot when the angel sent me back. The next morning my dad noticed scratches around my neck when I went to visit him.

Was this the testimony you asked for?

Answer 3

Yes in 1996, doctors in an ER told me I was gone for a bit over 23 minutes. They were talking to me when I "left". I sensed I was a pin-point of thought, I had no physical body. I also sensed I could see everything at once - in all directions. What I saw was darkness and emptiness. What I felt was quiet and peace and while I was alone I did not feel lonely. I was confused but I also admit I was scared (which doesn't happen often). I asked and I received, in fact, I "heard" her (at least the voice sounded feminine) speak into my right ear. She said she was trying to help me. I didn't see her and I came back. When I did the 2 docs were standing 20 feet away in a doorway filing out my toe-tag, the nurses were also visibly very shocked. I have not discovered why I came back but I "know" there is a reason.

Answer 4

raises HAND
raises hand HIGHER.
I have seen Heaven on the inside but i truly believe i was either out of body, or actually had died.
A voice spoke around me and said i was in the presense of Jesus christ.
On another occasion I was doing security patrol when a plane flew over, and all of a sudden i blacked out and came in front of ONE that LOOKED like StPeter and the stereotypical pearl gates. Immediately i recognized it and proclaimed I believed in Jesus Christ boldly. and a secon later I opened my eyes again in my car. with the worst case of Migraine i have ever had.
Just days before a plane flew overhead and dropped little brown pellets all over the road and as i watched them hit the ground like Hail, they burst into vapors and mists. Such is the evil of sorcery and poisoning. I truly believed planes followed me for years after that.
When i was a child, i had a similar experience with my bed being poisoned, i truly believed I was poisoned to death and rose up in the sky and there I beheld a spirit being, and years later i reasoned that it was not me that was being poisoned but my Grandfather, because it was His camper. Did i die? because i also reasoned that when i was lifted up in a catapult like manner, that it may have been a coffin. At another time I screamed and yelled because of fear, because I was standing in the room and looking at my body on the bed.
And still yet another experience. LAST ONE,
I had gotten tired one day and layed down on my bed in the den, i heard a knock at the door and walked into the next room where i could the back door was open and a spirit being was floating above the ground and the top half of his face was covered by the door header. All i could see was his smiling face. I waved the sight of this person away and went back and layed down. Where I began to force air back into my lungs and heard the knock at the door again. it was a 13 year old looking for a mutual freind.
a couple years later I heard a general authority give a talk and he described that Death is like walking from one room to another.

is that a cool coincidence or not? I dont remember if i even thought i had died till i heard those words.

I hope this testimony is what you asked for.

Answer 5

I nearly died once, and all I saw was a bright white dot/tunnel. However, there is a scientific answer for this. When your TV turns off, a little white dot appears in the middle of the screen. This is what happens when you die, your eyes turn off. The retina in the back of your eye dies, and you see a little white dot, which some people percive to be a tunnel or bright light.

Answer 6

Yes. I was in a near fatal car accident. I was drifting in and out of consciousness. My heart stopped 2 times and they had to revive me.

I had the worst experience I've ever had. I was in a really awful place. All I heard were a bunch of screams --- like thousands of people screaming in terror. I could barely even move. All of a sudden, my skin felt like it was being chewed on by invisible beings. I kept on asking for someone to help me.. and then I woke up in hospital bed.

Answer 7

i am already on the other side.i am joking.

I've seen heaven.
I was walking across the street when a car was going to hit me.
For a minute, I saw God... eating chicken from a bucket.
Then the car missed me, just by a inch and wizzes past.

Answer 10

I was in a holding area. Nothing but grey and a voice before I was sent back.
