Monday: Near-Death Experiences
Some of the most popular modern arguments to “prove” the theory of the natural immortality of the soul are “near-death experiences.” In his book, Life After Life: The Investigation of a Phenomenon — Survival of Bodily Death (Atlanta, GA: Mockingbird, 1975), Raymond A. Moody, Jr., presented the results of his five-year study of more than one hundred people who experienced “clinical death” and were revived. These individuals claimed to have seen a loving and warm being of light before coming back to life. This has been regarded as “exciting evidence of the survival of the human spirit beyond death” (back cover). Over the years, many other similar books have been published, promoting the same idea. (See lesson 2.)
Read the resurrection accounts of 1 Kings 17:22-24, 2 Kings 4:34-37, Mark 5:41-43, Luke 7:14-17, and John 11:40-44. How many of them talk about any kind of conscious existence while the resurrected ones were dead, and why is that answer important?
All near-death experiences reported in modern literature are of people considered clinically dead, but not really dead, in contrast to Lazarus, who was dead for four days and whose corpse was rotting (John 11:39). Neither Lazarus nor any of those raised from the dead in biblical times ever mentioned any afterlife experience, whether in Paradise, in purgatory, or in hell. This is, indeed, an argument from silence, but it is in full agreement with the biblical teachings on the unconscious state of the dead!
But what about the “near-death” experiences so commonly recounted today? If we accept the biblical teaching of the unconsciousness of the dead (Job 3:11-13, Psalm 115:17, Psalm 146:4, Eccles. 9:10), then we are left with two main possibilities: either it is a natural psychochemical hallucination under extreme conditions, or it can be a supernatural satanic deceptive experience (2 Corinthians 11:14). Satanic deception could indeed be the explanation, especially because in some cases these people claim to have talked to their dead relatives! But it could be a combination of both factors.
With this deception prevalent, and so convincing to many, it is crucial that we stick firmly to the teaching of the Word of God, despite whatever experiences we or others might have that go against what the Bible teaches.
How fascinating that NDEs often now come with the imprimatur of “science.” What does this teach us about how careful we need to be even of things that science supposedly “proves”? |

The devil is the father of lies. |
Memory Text: 2 Corinthians 11:14.15 – And no wonder! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is not strange if his ministers also disguise themselves as ministers of righteousness. Their end will match their deeds.

Near death you are not dead.
My God bless you today and always.

Reaching the World for Jesus #TedWilson #shorts
It may seem that reaching the world is impossible, but the proclamation of the gospel will be completed through the power of God. Are you ready to be used by God? This #short video from Pastor Ted Wilson's weekly message reminds us that in times like this, God is calling each one of us to witness for Him, to reach the world so that the gospel will be proclaimed throughout all nations. Though it may appear impossible, God will surely act, and finish the mission through you and the church, even if the task of reaching billions of people in places where religious freedom is lacking seems insurmountable. Listen to Pastor Ted Wilson's message as he encourages us to be willing and ready to reach out to the world and proclaim the gospel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jM-sDvVeDA&list=PL-k2Gb-DBYo_ANrUJhHN2_4bSlMDTjuqQ&index=73 ———————————————————————————— The Seventh-day Adventist Church has been an established denomination since 1863.
