Exploring Near-Death Experiences
Near-death experiences (NDEs) are described as moments when individuals clinically die but are later resuscitated, often reporting encounters with a divine figure or a feeling of leaving their physical body. The experiences vary across cultures and religions, with many sharing commonalities such as seeing a brilliant light or experiencing a life review. John Burke, a pastor and researcher, shares insights from his study of nearly 1,500 NDE cases, emphasizing that many individuals report seeing a God of light and love, which he argues aligns with biblical descriptions of God. Burke's findings suggest that these encounters can serve as a bridge for understanding the divine for those from various cultural backgrounds, challenging conventional perceptions of the afterlife.
