mediumship, spirit communication
While the core experience shows biblical elements of God's sovereignty and emphasis on selfless love, the post-NDE claims of mediumship and spirit communication are explicitly forbidden in scripture. The ability to "talk to dead people" contradicts biblical prohibitions against necromancy and consulting mediums.
On September 8, 2001, Priscilla experienced anaphylactic shock, knowing she was dying as she went blind then deaf. She died, exited through her body down through the ER bed, then flew up into a corner of the room. In pitch black void, she felt wonderful - no pain, light, no body. She knew God or a higher power was there holding the key to her return. Through emotional communication without words, she demanded to return because her four children needed her and her 80-year-old mother had already lost one child. God laughed lovingly at her anger and "told" her she could return because her requests were all for others. During an OBE, she saw her ex-boyfriend outside the building with someone telling her "Don't be upset, he's not the one." She then returned to her body.
--- Biblical Summary --- Biblical elements: Direct awareness of God's presence and authority over life and death aligns with biblical teaching. The emphasis on selfless love for children and mother as reason for return reflects biblical values of sacrificial love. God's loving response despite her anger shows divine mercy and understanding. The communication through emotions/spirit rather than words is consistent with spiritual communication in scripture. Unbiblical elements: The description of post-NDE abilities including "blowing out light bulbs," talking to dead people, and spirits appearing raises significant concerns about mediumship and occult practices explicitly forbidden in scripture (Deuteronomy 18:10-12). These claimed abilities are incompatible with biblical Christianity. |
