While containing powerful biblical elements, this experience includes significant unbiblical concepts. The positive aspects include the life review with accountability (similar to judgment), the wheat/chaff separation directly from Jesus' teaching, experiencing God as light and truth, and transformation leading to service. The comforting presence during life review suggests the Holy Spirit. However, severely problematic elements emerged in her interpretations: belief in reincarnation and karma, universal salvation ("all paths lead to God"), and moral relativism ("no right or wrong"). Her claim that "we would not any of us be at peace until we all would be" suggests universal reconciliation. The psychic abilities and channeling she developed afterward raise concerns about occult involvement. Despite the genuine near-death experience with some biblical features, the theological conclusions drawn contradict core Christian doctrine.
Sharon D, age 21, was in a severe motorcycle accident that nearly severed her left leg, broke it in five places, and caused her to lose over 4.5 pints of blood from a severed artery. She was reported dead at the scene and it took 20 minutes for the ambulance to arrive. During three days of unconsciousness, she experienced leaving her body and having her entire life reviewed. She felt a comforting presence during the review where she was judged by the same measure she had judged others, but felt no external condemnation. Positive actions rippled into enlightenment and love for eternity, while negative ones were burned away like chaff from wheat.
She passed into brilliant light that was not visual but like the illumination of perfect understanding - "the light you experience when you have an idea that is right-on." In this light existed all knowledge of past, present and future, perfect unity and peace. She felt so loved and complete that she didn't want to return. A persistent gentle voice kept asking if she wanted to come back. Eventually, she realized how little she had contributed to this magnificent truth and wanted to help others know they are loved beyond measure. She saw herself from high in the atmosphere looking down at mountain ranges with intense colors before being "vacuumed" back into her body. A doctor was saying "Wiggle her toes" to test for nerve damage, and her toes wiggled though she remained unconscious for days more. --- Biblical Summary --- Biblical elements: The life review with judgment reflects biblical concepts of accountability. The separation of wheat from chaff directly references Jesus' teachings. The brilliant light of truth and understanding aligns with God as light. The transformative experience leading to service echoes biblical calling. The presence of a comforter during life review suggests the Holy Spirit's role. Unbiblical elements: The statement that "there is no right or wrong, it all works together perfectly" contradicts biblical moral absolutes. References to karma, reincarnation possibility, and universal salvation in her changed beliefs are contrary to scripture. |
