He Died And Crossed Over. This will astound You! - A Prophetic Life Altering Near Death Experience

[Music] [Music] hi everyone thanks so much for joining us today today I'm going to be speaking with C Thomas Perry he experienced an nde which is a near-death experience and it had an amazing impact on his life enough so that he authored a book on it called dying to be alive we'll be talking about that as well I just want to give you a little bit of background on C Thomas before we jump right into the interview dying to be alive is the firsthand account of an incredible experience in 2008 he suffered a heart attack and found himself in an ambulance blacking out and in immediate danger of death he describes the experience of being in the presence of angels engaged in conversation with Jesus and then being offered the choice to return to life on Earth or to continue living in heaven now the story doesn't stop there he traces this back to the intervention of God on his life as he recounts the journey through life that saw him threatened by a cult suffering the death of his brain injured daughter this is a story of life and death that extends well beyond our routine Earthly existence and offers an intriguing glimpse into the Timeless realm of Eternity the book also offers more than just a story it opens up the way to an encounter with Heaven that reaches from Beyond this world into the deep heart and soul of our existence so we're going to be joining with him shortly and of course if you have any questions you can always always leave them in the comments section below I'll be sure to have C Perry answer them you can also email me you'll find all that information in the description of this video also while you're here please subscribe and give us a thumbs up that would mean so much to me if you did thank you so much thank you everyone for joining us today I'm so excited because I have a guest with us that's going to discuss something that many of you may not heard of and if you have you'll be amazed at Colin's story he's also known as C Thomas Perry and he authored a book called dying to be alive and as I said I recorded a little bit of a brief intro but Colin if you can just give us some of your background tell us you know what happened to you what an nde is and let's just you know hit the ground run in there sure yeah look I'm am a university Professor I guess you would call it in America I lecture in media film and television studies and things like that that's my profession um I'm I'm a father and a grandfather I I have children and grandchildren I live in Melbourne Australia which is right down the southern tip of Australia we're in the middle of summer now as you can probably see by the bright light out the b um now um ndes I think yeah it's worthy of a little bit of explanation uh nde stands for near-death experience uh and it's basically when a person actually dies or comes very close to death and they continue to exist they continue to experience things they come back telling the most amazing Stories there is in recent years a large upturn in reports of IND I believe they've been there all along but people are a little bit hesitant to talk about it because uh you you get a a variety of responses when you start talking about inds some people very skeptical some people uh mock it and make fun of it but most people are very interested and are really Keen to find out what happens when you die and where you go and how it all how it all takes place so uh my my story and how the event occurred to me is this this was 2008 um was 49 years of age at the time and I was you know I guess I'd been divorced and I was lonely and feeling a bit down and not not really very happy in my life and I started to actually get chest pains you know the broken heart syndrome and uh I I went to the doctor and said please can we test this out is something doesn't feel right and every time I exerted myself or did any physical activity it would start to hurt so she said yeah that's a warning sign and and gave me an ECG test and said to me now just wait relax don't do too much activity take it easy and we'll wait for these results to come back well it took a week or so and by this stage I'd been resting and relaxing and I was feeling quite good again not too bad at all and I looked out the back door and my my back Garden was in a a very unfortunate state so I decided to get the the trimmer out and a petrol machine and started to pull on the cord to to start the machine to tidy up my my garden and it was a particularly stubborn machine and decided that day it was not going to start so I just kept pulling on the cord getting frustrated and as I was doing this very suddenly I had this massive cramp across the front of my chest it was um a very strong cramp is the best way I can describe it it wasn't pure pain it was just cramping and tightness very extreme and immediately I knew okay this is this is not good this is this is a heart attack taking place here so I I stood there and I I thought things through because I was alone I was in the house nobody else was there and I thought this is not a good scenario I could very easily just drop dead right here and now and no one would know for days but as I was thinking this and as I was processing what was happening I heard a very very loud voice speak to me uh internal I think could have been external I don't know but a very loud voice just said to me you are going to die but I have things for you to do and I thought wow this has to be God this just has to be God this no way known this is anything else it was too strong too powerful too big so at that point I just thought to myself well hang on a minute I'm going to die but you have things for me to do I mean this didn't make a lot of sense to me at the time and this voice just said to me go inside pack a bag call an ambulance right now so I was still able to move around enough to do that and packed a bag and called an ambulance and they arrived very quickly which was a blessing uh in about five or 10 minutes they were there and there was two one was a very experienced paramedic and one was a a rookie on his first day so the rookie did the work and the paramedic supervised and uh he said I'm going to give you um nitrog glycerol tablet under the tongue and and an injection of morphine just to take pressure off the heart and they did that and prepared me and said we're not sure what's happening here but we'll get you into the ambulance and take you to hospital and check it out properly so they put me on the gurnie and trollied me into the ambulance and away we went towards the hospital and just a couple of kilometers down the the road um the rookie paramedic said to me we're going to give you another injection of morphine a little more nitrog glycerol just to lower your blood pressure I said fine and they injected me again and immediately I felt I was going to pass out I've passed out several times in my life but I could just feel it coming and I said I'm going I could feel myself going and then suddenly there was blackness that was it it was just black now as I said I've passed out a few times in my life I know what it's like but this was something entirely different I was very alert uh it was a very floaty dream like experience I was simply floating in this Darkness feeling very light and feeling feeling quite content and happy in that state it was it was a lovely feeling At first I felt this is is beautiful I could I could handle more of this and then as I started to drift around in this in this black environment that felt very much like being in water felt as if I was fighting in water and I started to think myself this is not normal this is not like I've just fainted something's different here and I said to myself I think I have died I think I am dead and it with that thought came a fair amount of fear so I started to become afraid and as I did I started to have this sensation of sinking sinking downwards into this darkness and hence I got more afraid and the more afraid I got the more I sunk and uh I made the mistake of looking down never looked down I looked downwards and I just sensed this deep infinitely deep black piss this like nothingness beneath me that just it was very frightening uh it was literally a void of nothingness and I knew it wasn't going to be good if I sunk down into this black void so that I bought up a Christian and I've been a Christian for most of my life so I just cried out I just said Jesus come and save me with all of my strength I just cried this out I continued to float and continued to drop down and was getting quite concerned at this stage when suddenly uh this hand came and just grabbed me by the forearm and started to pull me upward I had a very strong sense of up and down so uh I was being pulled up by the wrist and I looked up and I saw this person in a in a white sort of gown and we were just flying upwards at an incredible rate I don't know if your viewers have ever seen that Star Trek and going into warp mode it very much felt like that I was just flying upwards and things were blurring past me I have no idea what it was stars or it was too quick it was too fast for me to comprehend what was going on and this went on for what felt like a minute or so and eventually we came to rest and and it was a a light cloudy sort of environment everything was glowing a little bit and um as as I adjusted to being in this environment I realized there was half a dozen all so Angels standing around me uh and this one being who came to get me was also there so I was just initially in a little bit of shock just going wow where am I and what's happening here uh and I gradually adjusted and began to sense a bit about these angels these beings that were around me and it was a very mindboggling experience uh these beings were so full of wisdom and nobility and they just looked timless and ancient and beautiful all at once uh very Noble uh I don't know if you've seen a lot of the Rings and the huge stone statues of the Old Kings it was a bit like that they just had this sense of Timeless wisdom and I started to realize I am actually feeling their wisdom I could feel it I could sense it and then I started to realize I can sense their thoughts and they were actually communicating with me telepathically is the best way to put it I could actually hear what they were thinking they could hear what I was thinking so I I just took a while to adjust to all of this uh and then the one who came to get me spoke to me and said um we've come out you're not in heaven we've come out to get you he said you have a choice to make you can either come on with us to paradise and stay there forever or you can return to your life on Earth but you need to make that choice so that was quite a weighty thing to to consider at that point in time I had children at at that stage I had a 5-year-old son 12 and 15 year old daughters and I had an older son and an older daughter from a previous marriage and that that daughter had been hit by a car when she was seven and she was profoundly brain injured and I was the only parent that she had around so these things started to wet up in my mind and I thought no I I can't just abandon my children I can't just leave them I need to go back for them and with this thought I I started to get a little bit afraid again and started to get sort of anxious and and and fearful and the response from the Angels was really interesting because they all sort of jumped forward towards me and said no no no we we can't have fear here nobody is afraid here and they started to calm me down and and settle me again and make sure I was feeling all right so fear to them was something totally out of the normal it was something they just did not like did not want and it certainly was not a part of where they were so they calmed me down and I I relaxed a bit and then I explained look I really do think I need to go back I need to go back for my children I feel my life has unfinished business I think there is indeed things that I need to do in my life uh rather than finishing now and so um this one who had come to get me just sort of nodded and said okay okay we will send you back and he turned to one of the angels and said go and check the vessel to see if it's okay and now at this point this Angel just drifted off and I was somehow able to see myself in the ambulance uh lying there with the paramedics working on me way off in the distance and I saw this Angel float down to the ambulance and start to walk around inside the ambulance and check me out and look at what was happening uh and that was amazing to be able to do this and then then I turned around to this this one who came to get me and I said who are you and he said I'm the one you call Ward and for me that's Jesus there is no other and he indeed was Jesus and looked like Jesus he had the white gown beard and longish hair and I just realized who I was with and it was mindboggling again I I was absolutely a struck with what had happened to me and where I was and I had to um just take a moment there and take a deep breath and say wow I can't believe I'm with you you know of everyone in the universe that I would love to be with it's you and there I was now I need to explain at this point the feelings I was going through I'm telling the story like it's all a mental narrative but that wasn't the most powerful thing happening the inside emotionally I was just there was this enormous sense of love I've never felt anything vaguely approaching at it was this huge warmth in my chest that just felt as if I couldn't contain it it was so big so powerful and it was just coming out of Jesus and these angels and filling me and I felt just so inspired and so full of love and happiness and joy it was the best experience I've ever had by a long shot uh never will forget it it was it was magnificent uh and and I was just flooded with this sense of warmth and love and and Jesus just turned to me at this point and he said you've got a lot of grief you've got a lot of things wrong can I come and heal you and I just said yes yes please and at this point he actually joined himself to me as if he his soul came inside my soul and he started to shift things around and I could feel old sadness and grief being pushed aside and things being rearranged inside myself it was quite remarkable and even more remarkable was the fact that for that that little moment that minute or two I was actually joined to him and I could feel and sense his awareness which once again something I will never forget um he he just had this awareness of everything he could sense everything that was happening every blade of grass in Africa every child in mosan Beek every every person in China he just was aware of it all was if he knew everything in the universe was just connected to him and that was a most magnificent feeling a most magnificent experience and I just sense the nature of God in that moment like I never have before the things we call omniscience and omnipotence and and just that sense of universality that that he is and I finally really understand who Jesus is and what it means when it says you know seated at the right hand of the father one with God uh I really did experience what he was and who he is now in in that state and that was a lifechanging experience for sure um then after he had done that I I was just all struck by all the things that were happening to me and then uh the angel returned and and said the vessel is good so Jesus took me aside and said okay we're going to send it back but first I want to talk to you about going back and what's happening so he he started to explain to me that there was no absolute guarantee if I came back again I would get into Paradise but that the choices I made in my life the choice to to follow him the choice to be aligned with God to keep up my belief was the deciding factor on that and that the choices I made were de whether or not I could return and come into paradise and that was the risk I ran by going back into the Earth so that was my choice and then he he took me aside and started to talk to me about my future when I did return and he started to show me glimpses of of my future life uh people things that were going to happen to me when I return it was as if I was looking through a veil onto a video screen there were parts of my life that had not yet occurred being being played to me which was remarkable quite incredible and things that have happened and people I did meet uh specific individuals that I did meet and um this was all in advance and he was just scrolling through it and talking to the angels and saying there is no don't show him this bit no let's move on let's look at that bit and he was explaining things to the angels he was very definitely a level above the angels and and in command of them and showing them things and how things were working so this went on for a little while uh and then he said okay time's come and we'll send you back now this had been quite a while in the meantime let me just explain the feelings a little more I felt so much at home it was like this was the ultimate home I belong here this is this is beautiful and I could feel dead relatives I I didn't actually meet or see them but I could feel their presence it was as if I was at a family reunion was the feeling um I just it felt so familiar it felt so good and loving and I just felt embraced with warmth in that place it was so good and then that's I think why it was a difficult choice to decide to come back when you're in this beautiful homely loving environment and uh I knew what was waiting for me back here so he um he actually really did explain to me that that these are the risks of going back but this is what you can do to help ensure that you come back again and then he sent me back and I felt myself once again floating in this watery type environment and I looked up and I could see a light sort of a bright shining light and I headed towards that light and then suddenly Bang I was back in my body uh this was not a pleasant return it was like hitting concrete it was very clumsy after feeling that beautiful spiritual existence that I was in that lovely light dreamy floaty sort of experience and Clarity in my mind I I realized for the first time in my life I was outside my brain the the calculation of the brain the double thinking everything the questioning anything the the wh ifs the maybe you know all all the mental processes just just weren't there and I was purely myself purely I and it was very lovely to have that Clarity uh it's very crystalline thought processes that were not clouded at all and very pure but as soon as I came back into my body that was gone the brain was at it again the body was just felt clumsy and heavy I felt like I weighed tons and it just felt evil when I was there did you say it felt evil okay it felt Evil coming back into this world the world felt evil in comparison to where I was it felt dark and evil and oppressive and I could really feel that difference when I came back in uh like this this in comparison is a very inferior existence many people who come back after n years say the same thing we think of this world as real but in comparison to where I was and how I felt that was far more real than this world this world is the one that feels unreal this is the one that feels like an illusion this is the one that feels heavy being there that was a reality I never really wanted to leave and a strong and powerful real far more real than this existence so um that's we we think of spiritual existence as not real very EIC and drifty but it's not it's actually more real and more powerful and more impacting than than what we experience here in this world so there I was uh lying on my back in the ambulance I took An Almighty gasp and the the poor Rook ambulance operator was standing there with the defibrillator pads in his hand and he was said I was about to zap you you're back with us and here I was back in my body say and I just said wow what happened I must have been gone for ages that was amazing and he looked at me with a quizzical look on his face and he said no you've finally been out for a minute and I couldn't believe that because all of the events took place I would estimate 20 minutes to half an hour was what I experienced and he was telling me my heart had stopped beating 1 minute prior which they they did say you were technically dead then I mean absolutely you were techn okay yeah he actually had unplugged taken off all the ECG sensors because my heart had stopped it was showing zero what do they say asystolic is the word they used uh so my heart was not beating I was gone and hence he was standing over me with the pads ready to ready to give me the electric charge um so definitely yeah there was no question I had died in that in that moment in that time but the thing that intrigues me about it is the time differential in that here on Earth in this Earthly existence one minute had passed but where I was a far far longer period of time had had taken place and it just showed me there's a disconnect Between Heaven and Earth in terms of how time passes I don't think they're linked together in the way the way we would assume that there is definitely a different time scale going on uh and once again many ND experiences have come back with similar stories of of time passing at different rates uh so yeah there I was and and they took me off the hospital and gave me um the what do they call it a stance they did an angiogram um they they then placed a St inside my heart which instantly cured the problem I definitely assured that I had had a heart attack the particular enzyme from the heart was detected uh and there I was lying in hospital going wow what happened but interestingly it's it didn't stop I could still sense and hear Angelic voices and they were talking to me and saying things like one said um we've healed some arteries but there's one we won't heal and okay whatever I didn't understand much about that and later on the the head cardiologist came to see me and he said you're a very lucky man Mr Perry usually men of your age when they have this particular sort of heart attack they die on the spot you said you really should be dead yeah I think it's the Widow Maker or something like that the Widow Maker that's the particular artery yeah right so it was a blocked artery but he also said something very interesting to me he said um you seem to have had a heart attack before we can see where uh other blood vessels have expanded to take the blood flow around blockages and that's very rare but he said this has occurred with you and I I was just wondering had these angels done some tinkering in there is is this what had happened but uh it was it was just very interesting that this this experience kept on it didn't it gradually receded over the next couple of weeks um but I was certainly still aware of and sensing these Angelic voices speaking to me for quite some period of time well I have to ask you it it begs the question um I mean I personally believe in nde absolutely uh but do you think there's a remote chance that it could have been um hallucinations from morphine or narcotics that they gave you in the ambulance and at the hospital what's your take on that because a lot of critics say that it's chemical hallucinations you know the brain D yeah that's the standard response um not a chance not not a chance what I experienced it's nothing life a hallucination plus look real things happened some of the things they showed me there actually took place when I when I had returned one of these Angelic voices said to me um you're going to meet this woman she lives within one kilometer of this this hospital and okay all right uh that sure enough two weeks later I met a woman who I went on to marry and and uh we're now separated unfortunately but she lived about 800 meters away from hospital I mean that's not a hallucination that's an actual physical reality that occurred the Angels told you this the Angels told you this so they were they were giving you uh bits and pieces of your future yes like they were talk why do you think that they were doing that like what do you what what's your take on that why why I think yeah I think that's several levels of why they would be doing that one was to confirm to me that this was was real and that was important um and two they were trying to guide me in the right direction and the sense I got very clearly from them was that I had things to do which is what that voice had said to me and people to have in my life and things that needed to take place some people talk about it as a life contract you know things that I needed to complete and this was one of them and the other I think was writing my book about this and the sense I got from Jesus and from the Angels was that they very much wanted me to spread the word about this that this is something that people need to hear this is something they need to be aware of particularly those people who are coming close to death or have relatives who are terminally ill this this is very powerful and very strong message for them um it doesn't end when you die we think it ends we think that's it it's over no it is not and there is many many thousands of people who have experienced ndes who will tell you the same thing um there are I can't even begin to number how many there are there's an organization called oh yeah the nth experience Research Foundation who has cataloged many thousands of experiences and there's a lot of commonality there's a lot of consistency in what they are actually experiencing uh telepathic Communications is one of them um different time frames is another one a feeling of incredible love and feeling of being at home all of those things are virtually Universal with everyone who experiences this thing um the other the other argument against that hallucination claim is that many many people who have mbes have them under absolute anesthesia which literally just shuts down the brain there is there's no brain function going on there's nothing on the dials when they are reading the brain if it was a hallucination it would show up on those EC ECG readings that that take place but very many of them have these Vivid Vivid experiences but I think your mic went out a little your mic sounds a little low okay um it was and then all of a sudden it tweaked out a little bit okay well I'll just repeat some of it okay um very many of the people who have MDES have them under extreme anesthesia during surgery or or such things uh and that is where they are actually wired up and they are reading brain activity and for very many of these people there is zero brain activity and yet they have vivid experiences even to the point where they come back and they are able to tell the doctor where he put his keys in the drawer or they were able to talk about things that have taken place conversations that have happened in the room and yet they had zero brain activity they were hovering up near the roof what was going on so that in itself it's an impossibility that this is a hallucination I don't think scientists really want to face up to that fact they look for ways to explain it away but that's the reality of what has G on in fact I know of a couple of doctors who have actually come around to being very Pro nde and researching it as a result of having someone on the operating table just come back and said these things to them about a conversation they may have had or something that was set three three balls down the hallway in the hospital that there is no way know they could know that and certainly hallucinations can't explain that away right so the evidence is impelling yeah no it really is why do you think um only a small minority of people experience ndes and the rest of the people that die don't what's your take on that okay uh look I think it would have been it was a very dreamlike thing that happened to me and it would have been very easy for me to choose to just wipe it out of my Consciousness and say no no no that was just some sort of weird dream uh but let me tell you a few things there is I think they've estimated ndf have estimated about 177% of people who become unconscious in death come back and report an nde that's a pretty high figure um the other thing is there are very many people who from my experience I'm confident there are very many people who choose not to report what has happened to them who choose to stay quiet for the reasons I me mentioned earlier that you can cop a lot of cynicism you can cop a lot of um Angry response which I have certainly experienced very anti very aggressively opposed to the idea of ndes so I I think a lot of people choose the easy path of just keeping quiet about it and it's just a wow that's something I experienced but I won't talk about it because people might call me crazy that's lot of sense um what's your take on when you first passed away you you know you you you left your body why do you think you were descending down and like what what did you think that was Heaven hell like because we all hell being down Heaven being up like what's your whole take on the downward spiral portion of your experience I've done quite a lot of reading and research and thinking and praying and and all sorts of inquiries into into this it's a very interesting question I don't quite Believe In Hell the way the Catholic church and Dante has put it Forward of you know demons and pitchforks and and torture for eternity I don't quite accept that and I don't believe that's what the Bible says anyway uh if you look at it carefully but the the ancient Hebrew concept of shol the place of the Dead place of Darkness a place of Silence that is what it felt like that is what it looked like to me um and it was just like a a resting place for the Dead uh that's how I perceived it hell in the traditional sense I'm not sure about all of that as I've said I I don't really I didn't really have that sense that there was a place of torture I know there are some who have seen that within the years and have experienced that it wasn't my experience um there are some others also who have reported descending into that darkness and then a glowing light coming to them and leading them elsewhere so look I think just as in this world everybody's experience is unique and different I think the same is true of after this life going into whatever that realm is I call it Heaven uh there are very different experiences for different people different people experience things in a different way they come across different beings they have uh different Encounters in different places and spaces so yours was designed for you basically absolutely absolutely I I got this very strong sense of inevitability uh that what I experience in my life is partly planned partly my choices but he's aware of every moment and every hair on my head and that that is something I'm absolutely sure of now let's talk about Jesus a little bit I mean I I believe in in Jesus is my Lord and Savior too so I'm right on the same page with you um I'm curious about some of the things he said to you so he did he give you like dos and don'ts did he say because you mentioned um there's no guarantee getting back into Paradise correct you mentioned that um did he expand on that did he give you particulars like your life you shouldn't do this or you should do that like it sounded vague so like can you can you give us some details it was not an instruction to be a good boy that wasn't where he was coming from at all it was more about keeping attached to him it was more about keep keeping in line with God and keeping God in my life that I I absolutely believe in in Redemption through Jesus I absolutely believe that's his role right and what what he was saying was stay in that Covenant stay in that belief because that is what will bring you back he said don't wander away and that's what he was warning me about was wandering away and that that woman I married you know for a while there that was like I could have been drawn away into into other things and that's what he was telling me to guard against ah okay so be careful to stay attached to him to stay aligned with him that's what I believe he was really getting across to me so he didn't give you a checklist of do and don'ts it was just stay connected believe that I'm your lord and savior and spread the message basically absolutely very well put that's exactly what it was uh we have the law of Moses we don't need that again um and it wasn't Thou shalt do this Thou shalt not do that no it it's love the message is love and that's what I came back with he Heaven is full of love Jesus is full of love love is is at such a higher level than we give it credit for it's at the top of the Pinnacle of the universe love is the whole purpose of our being and our existence and that's when I say I came back here and it felt evil it's because I was in such love there Universal surrounding love it's beautiful coming back here that love just wasn't wasn't there and I felt this vacuum yeah when I first arrived back oh the planet's not such a great place especially nowadays so I could relate to that yeah so the Angels let's talk about them a little bit um you met the Angels after you met Jesus correct so you met or or you felt the hand Jesus kind to collect me he came to right he came to colle very literally then he took me they he looked like you imagined him to look you know like the perhaps a little more Middle Eastern than than we are led to believe by the sort of images and pictures that that we see um he had quite a narrow face dark beard dark hair very fine nose um I've seen pictures of people who have drawn pictures and they're fairly accurate um it's it's not the blueeyed blondhair sort of image that we know when you described him I I just instantly thought of the shroud of Torin like his face from um yeah I've recently seen an image of the shroud of Trin adapted 3D to how it would have looked wrapped around and that's very much what what he looked like whether the yeah flashed in my mind um yeah so let's talk about the Angels um I I'm a big believer in in angels and I I believe there are Earthly angels as well as ethereal angels too like I think we can run into people that are just Angelic in a sense so what did these angels look like were they um beings of light did they have faces formed like were they did they look human like tell me more about the Angels I'm intrigued they were more superhuman than human they had a human form no no doubt they had a human form it's hard to describe their faces were quite elongated and they looked very Noble very kingly it's the best way I can describe them they were tall they were big much larger than Jesus right um Jesus looked to be a normal human size these these guys were big that they stood quite a bit taller than he was I'd estimate nine 10 feet that s of yeah yeah but but not out of proportion in any way uh they just looked very appearance wasn't the point I think you know appearance is great to talk about appearance and I can describe them I could possibly draw pictures of them and they look like a lot of other pictures you've seen drawn of angels didn't see any wings but they were long in in gowns and they just looked wise how else can I put it they just emanated this wisdom and this depth in their presence I actually felt like a little child I felt like a little infant in their presence I also felt very unclean in their presence and I think back to what some of the ancient prophets wrote you know I'm a man of unclean lips that's how I felt I did not feel worth worthy to be with them I felt somehow dirty being in their presence they were just so far above and so pure and they were glowing they were emanating light um that's probably the best I can do describing them but the really important thing was that that telepathic mindt mind soul to soul sort of communication element that I experienced that so many others do and and they are able to tell you things without a word you just receive the thought of course there's no room for deception there because it's direct mind to mind and uh it's very pure and you get the full sense of what they are communicating to you unlike with words where we struggle to get their full meaning across you really do receive the full meaning from the what they communicate how many were there three oh more six seven oh there was many of them yeah yeah quite a few quite a few there and their role primarily was to do the work of like check on your vessel and what what were they what else were they doing saying to you at that at that point I mean and you mentioned fear and that like at one point you you were afraid you became afraid and they told you fear doesn't we don't allow fear here so they Abad your your fear right was it the Angels or Jesus that did that it was actually the Angels did angs yeah um they they just came around me they moved in close to me and I could feel their influence just draining away the fear and replacing it with that same love and joy it's like they were two opposite forces and they just could not have that fear they said we don't have that here you that was pretty much the words they used that doesn't exist here it's not part of this place please don't be afraid and um that was that was a wonderful thing to think about that that is their normal there is no fear nothing Jesus say to you directly that you weren't guaranteed Paradise when you pass next time he he said basically to me it's up to you and the choices and decisions you make like I absolutely believe I am guaranteed Paradise If I Stay a Believer and I think belief is the key and he said that you know the people said to him what what do I do how how do I respond he said believe in me and be baptized right that was his response to number believe in me was number one and that's the important thing belief to believe in Jesus Christ where he is who he is now the resurrected Christ in the heavens that's who I believe in I think we spend look the cross is incredibly important but he's no longer on the cross that was 2,000 years ago right he's now a universal exalted being way beyond our comprehension right all powerful all knowing all loving and uh that's that's who I experienced um and that's who I believe in and will always believe in after meeting him what other prophecies did you get during your nde so so you were told you were going to meet this woman who you later met and married any other particulars that you could talk about look it's all rather personal um there were I I did get um I did get some glimpses of the future and it was looking rather tumultuous shall we say it it's hard when you're actually seeing an image it's not like we have a news reporter telling us what we're looking at I was seeing images of warfare I was seeing images of earthquakes and things like that it was all rather fast and rather distant into the future and I wasn't quite sure what I was seeing and what I was looking at there was no absolute description that that I received um but certainly it looked like we're in for a rough ride from did it look like a movie playing where you you saw these scenes and did did you ask why he was showing them now Jesus showed this to you correct yes absolutely did you did he say why he was showing this to you like what what was your take on that being shown I I still don't fully understand that Carol I I think he was just giving me some sort of sense of what I was in for when I returned gotcha okay one thing he did say to me was you're going to experience a lot of pain which I have my my daughter who was brain injured died a year after I'm so sorry um there's an amazing story attached to that actually she she was profoundly brain injured and couldn't move her body couldn't speak she could make a few mouth a few little simple words and she had one hand that was yes and no and she could communicate with things like that but she was absolutely mentally alert great sense of humor would RAR with laughter when it's all the joke you know uh so she actually after I'd come back a few months later I actually spent some time alone with her and I just sat and explained everything that had happened to me and I said it was amazing she got very excited and started pointing to herself like this and I'm saying are you telling me you've had a similar thing she's going yes yes wow when she was hit by the car she was in a coma for three months and um I began to realize she'd been with the Lord during that time she was very much signaling this is what was going on so that was that was an incredible realization for me after many years of looking after her as my brain injured daughter to realize that she'd gone through this sort of experience wow that's incredible and then when she was on her deathbed we we knew she was dying she actually died of swine flu um in 2009 when there was that swine flow epidemic sweeping through uh she her lungs were basically eaten up by this this pneumonia that she got as a result of swine FL so she was lying on that on that bed just struggled for breath and and we all knew she was dying she knew she was dying and I was able to just look at her and say Rebecca you know where you're going you've been there before and I could just see the the relief that almost Joy on her face when when I reminded her of that it was it was actually a beautiful moment and you know really helped me when she passed away it helped me to know that she was going somewhere wonderful and uh that it's so good for people with terminals for people who may have just lost someone you know God really loves people he's not gonna cast you into pitchforks of hell I think that's reserved for people who've done some really bad stuff yeah uh for your average person who's try to do good in their life I think it's it's pretty hopeful that God just Embraces them and takes them back to himself now for people of other religions because you know you you've got so many of them do you think you know and this is just your take on it do you think that NES are designed for them and their God maybe they saw Buddha maybe they saw Muhammad I mean it you know what's your take on that okay um look I I come at it from a Christian perspective um undoubtedly but I've read a lot of ndes there's some really good books around on it um John Burke has written a book called imagine heaven and he's just written another book called imagine the god of Heaven that talks about many many many different experiences and some of in some of them people of other religions actually see Jesus and become Christian like that that happens more than you would imagine uh my experience was that if I had not said to him who are you I got the impression he wasn't going to tell me I don't think he goes around the announcing who he is and so I think a lot of people who have MDES come to him and they see this figure and they just assume oh that's Buddha or oh that's Krishna or whatever uh whereas I don't think the identification like I like I say he didn't have it written across his for he was just a being but you asked for Jesus to save you I did yeah I did and that may be the difference I don't know but many others who didn't ask for Jesus uh actually experience him wow that's so inter guy one guy who's a particularly interesting case in the kic he he was stung by a box jellyfish oh and died he was gone and he found himself with Jesus and and had the most amazing experience he's written a book about it himself and and came back again and Jesus told him it was the prayers of his mother that had that had brought him to him and his mother was a Christian had been praying for him all all her life and when he died Jesus honored her prayers saving him so it's a that's a good thing to know if you have people with terminal illness pray pray pray yeah yeah absolutely absolutely Ely believe that now let's talk about um after this is all said and done you had your nde uh how long did it take you to come forward and share that with your family and friends what was that experience like for you in well immediately with my family with my children my closest friends immediately straight away uh even with them there's this sort of whoa you know that this sort of backward step and I don't know about this are you sure it wasn't just a hallucination it's straight away you you cop that immediately so I I thought about it for a while I sat on it for a while I told quite a lot of people who I thought would be receptive and many of them were and many of them encouraged me to write this this book that I've written dying to be alive uh so it took me what seven years until I actually released the book of which two or three years were actually writing the book and putting it all together um but it took a bit of time number one to just physically recover from the heart attack because there was muscle damage in my heart that I needed to restore probably took me six months to get back to the sort of a working functioning level um and then after that it really was I had to sit on it and digest it for quite a period of time it wasn't something that that you just come straight out with and and blow a big fan Fair because of all the things attached to it all the the preconceptions people have all the things that have been written and said about it it's loaded it's a very loaded issue and uh it after a few years I realized no this is this is too important to stay quiet about this is a little piece of evidence telling people that there is an afterlife and I cannot stay quiet about this I feel I have a universal god-given responsibility to share this information and to assure people that there is more after death and I think it's a very powerful message and a very timely message in the world at the moment that um there is hope there more than hope there is Joy there is beauty there is love there is this most magnificent existence for for those who who die and meet the Lord uh that's the biggest piece of information I think I can communicate my entire lifetime now do you do you network with other folks that have had ndes like are you in the community still plugged in to some extent yeah yeah I mentioned John Burke and I really highly recommend firstly read my book but also have a look at his books because they're a compilation of many NV and and quite a bestseller um imagine heaven but it's well worth reading and coming to understand the widespread number of people that this has occurred to that all the people who've written books all the people who've come out and talk about this there's a lot there's a lot way more than it just being a few freak cases and these are not um stupid people I mean I'm a PhD in my field there are doctors there there are people are professionals it's not weird wacko Freo people who are coming and saying this it's it's some pretty uh some pretty well educated respectable people who are coming back with this information so I think you can you can trust that it's just not some eccentricity there's a lot of validity behind this yeah so what do you think is next for you so you wrote the book it's out there um you're doing your best to spread the message what what do you think is is next in terms of what Jesus said you have things to do like what do you think they are moving forward well I think to continue with this uh spread the word as much as I can but I'm starting to consider another book uh obviously I can't tell the same story again and again but I'm very interested in the sort of idea of visions and um prophecies things that God sends us about the future about life and I am actually learning a lot more about this as time goes by um I'm actually enrolled in a a school a school of faith that we we actually run the bethl school Supernatural School of ministry uh curriculum which teaches you to understand God and in my book I talk about the visions that I had one or two visions I had it's not something that just left me it's something that has stayed with me for the rest of my life and being able to tap into this spiritual level is very very powerful um their their experiences once again that have changed my life just being able to go beyond my body into the spirit and to see and feel and hear things to a level that human beings have trouble comprehending so you're still experiencing a lot of the spiritual manifestations of your experience do you are you still able to communicate with the angels or hear them or like what what what are you experiencing spiritually that has forever changed you well look hearing from God is not something unusual for people who are believers uh you get a sense you get a little a little voice that might say things to you incredibly accurate incredibly accurate like sometimes I I will hear something about someone and just pass it on to them I say how did you know that this does take place this does I don't know how exactly it works I guess we would put it down to the Holy Spirit the Angels whatever that there is this spiritual level of communication that goes on that is real I I don't know if we can prove it scientifically I would imagine not I would imagine God has been very careful so that we cannot prove it because that would take the element of Faith out of it all sense yeah yeah I I think it comes with belief and God wants those who are able to believe who are able to say yes I choose to believe this and they're the people he's after they're the ones he wants to communicate with and have a Rel like all tied to Free Will and that God gave us free will to to believe in him or not right yes yes absolutely yes well your story is is fascinating and it really moved me when I very first watched a video that you you explained it in uh moved me so much that I just had to reach out to you and speak to you about it there's something very genuine um about it and I've watched so many nde stories not not saying they're not genuine but there was just something very deep and genuine about your story and I really hope that a lot of people pick up your book and and are touched and moved by it and um is there anything you want to add en closing that we didn't touch upon or you didn't get a chance to say I well thank you for for what you just said I really appreciate that look I think a part of how this has transformed me this whole experience is is that notion of Truth and and that this God is truth he calls the Holy Spirit the spirit of truth that he sent to us and and that notion of Truth is far deeper than just not telling lies this is a truth an alignment with the universe with God and an alignment with the way things are genuinely and what a lot of human beings do is we live constructing our own realities and twisting things around to fit the way we would like them to be but one word I've really learned to resp is the word surrender and I've just learned to surrender to God and this is the way it is and this is the way he made me and I'm happy with everything he's done even though there's been hard moments I'm happy and I rejoice in everything he's done and Jesus is just such a wonderful being and I'm so happy to have him in my life and I would just recommend to everybody watching this that do not wipe Jesus off as some historical character uh he's far far more than that and I think one day when you cross the threshold you will meet him and and understand what I'm saying but uh I think my advice is get to know him now talk to him now open your heart up to him now and you will discover something magnificent oh I love that that's so true and you were very blessed to have had that experience I think you were I mean I don't see it as like the scary negative thing I think it was a magical moment where you literally joined forces with Jesus uh and and now you're spreading that message and that's a beautiful thing it is I I feel very privileged I seriously do I sometimes have to pinch myself say right wow did this really happen but uh yeah it is wonderful and I just wish the best for everybody watching that that they could find their own experience and hopefully without dying on the spot but find your own experience with Jesus and with God and learn to open up your heart I think we have very locked up hearts and that that's something that Jesus really works with is your heart yeah right now I had asked folks in the beginning when I did a little intro for you that they can leave questions in the comment section below so um I'll make sure that any questions that are left there I'll be sure to email you and maybe you can pop in and answer a few of them I'm sure people are going to have a lot of questions I'll do my very best just be understanding if it takes me a while to respond but quite happy to do that I'd love to do that well thank you Colin and I hope you stay in touch um especially moving forward if you decide to write another book or something like definitely let's stay in touch I would love that thank you so much Caroline thank you Colin have a blessed one
