While this experience contains some biblically compatible elements, the spiritual transformation afterward raises serious biblical concerns. The initial cry to God for his wife sake demonstrates selfless love consistent with biblical values. The realm of pure light and love could represent divine presence, and the immediate answer to his plea might indicate divine mercy. The floating sensation and otherworldly environment align with some biblical accounts of spiritual experiences. However, the post-experience transformation directly contradicts biblical teaching. Converting to Buddhism rejects the exclusivity of Christ for salvation. Developing psychic abilities like dowsing and paranormal investigation ventures into practices the Bible explicitly forbids as divination and spiritism in Deuteronomy 18:10-12. The pursuit of many creation theories suggests relativistic truth rather than biblical creation. Becoming a sensitive who detects presences engages with the spirit realm outside biblical boundaries. While the experience prompted positive life changes like prioritizing family over career, the spiritual direction taken leads away from biblical truth toward practices scripture condemns as occult.
Steward, an avid handball player, had just defeated the Venice Beach champion when he stepped outside the court boundaries and immediately felt dizzy. His vision blacked out except for small radial perimeters in both eyes. He fell backward onto concrete but felt no pain. Through his limited vision, he saw feet running around him and heard people from basketball courts rushing to help. While on the floor, he noticed his sports bag on the fence and reached for it. In the blink of an eye, Steward found himself on another plane of existence - a realm of pure, energized milky-white light. His floating body was embraced by this environment, feeling perfect love and contentment. Though analytical by nature, he could not see his body but felt no pain and wanted to remain in this perfect state. Questioning if he was dead, his wife face came to mind, and he screamed My Wife She is alone please send me back please dear God send me back home She needs me. After this plea, Steward awoke in an ambulance being pumped with fluids during a 15-minute drive to the hospital. He had experienced a severe anaphylactic attack causing his body parts to shut down one by one. The experience transformed Steward completely. He returned different - becoming a Buddhist, studying creation theories and ancient archaeology, developing sensitivity as a dowser and paranormal investigator. Money became unimportant, and he stopped climbing the corporate ladder.
