kait: Why does he let sinners into heaven temporarily? I thought we had to be purified first, yet it seems many people convert AFTER god lets them into heaven.

Because God wants you to tell others about how to get to this beautiful place for those who love him.
These people that die and come back have never actually gotten through the gates of heaven. They are only on the outside looking in and then God sends them back.
If you want to read a good story about this get "90 minutes in Heaven" by Don Piper. He tells of being outside the gates, but not actually getting in to heaven. He was able to see through the gates and hear the music, but did not enter.
BTW There is no such mention of having to be purified in purgatory after death in the Bible. This is a teaching of the Catholic Church and you will not find it anywhere in the Bible.

He wouldn't. God doesn't let you come up to visit. I'm having trouble locating the verse that basically says to be absent from the body is to be present in the Lord. When you're alive, you're alive. When you're dead, you're dead. There is no in-between. I'm not knocking near-death-experiences, but they're not experiences at the Pearly Gates or the Pit. NDE's are NOT proof of God. They just mean you almost died.

i mean...we never seen any heaven or hell yet, so we don't know people who die comes to world again. but i don't think that's an idea, how will God and why should He bring the dead to life again? that's a very weird question, but it seems that God never bring anyone dead to life again. we never know what God says. and if u think of the Bible and the Koran in today's, u will see that some of the words are has weird meanings. the example is this, if God knows the future and before of us, why does He get mad at Adam and Eve? and if knows the future, why does He still want to test Job? He already knows the future, why does He get mad? why, probably, our ancestors changed it, we call them Yahudi.

I don't think anyone who ever describes a near death experience is lying. IS that what you are saying when you state: "as so many people like to CLAIM about near death experiences as proof of God"?
Are you calling them liars?
That's mean, don't you think?

because of the fact God is Holy, consequently He can't lie. His word states: Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the call of the Lord would be saved. because of the fact the Bible is the word of God and God could abide by using His very own word, people who call upon the call of Jesus could be saved. His word additionally says: John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him shouldn't perish, yet have eternal existence.

It's a bunch of nonsense. Just like some TV preachers who say "JEEESUS came into my bedroom this morning, and we talked for 2 hours." This really was said on TV by K.C. Those initials ring any bells? His wife is Gloria.

NDEs are biochemical reactions of the brain, so I'll just give a flippant answer. It's to show us what we're not missing.
