Millions of people across six continents have reported a personal near death experience. Do these accounts prove the existence of a loving God?
John Burke was an engineer and an agnostic. As his dad was dying of cancer someone gifted his family with Raymond Moody's book "Life After Life." John read it in one sitting at his father's bedside. It sparked the thought, "Could this be real? Could there be an after life? A God?" This led him to read the Bible, where he found undeniable evidence in the scriptures and Bible prophecy about the existence of a real and loving God. He left his career to become a pastor and dedicated his life to ministry.
Over the last 35 plus years John has grown in his faith and also studied over 1,000 near death experiences. His award winning book Imagine Heaven was written in hopes of highlighting scripture that is correlating to what experiencers collectively and around the globe are reporting in their testimonies.
Imagine Heaven is now available in over 22 languages and the global response to it has been more than John could have ever anticipated. God has led him to write a new book, but this time John is writing about what these experiences, when evaluated through the lens of scripture, say about GOD.
In this interview John shares:
-What led him from agnosticism to the Bible, Jesus, faith and ministry
-The overwhelming response to his book Imagine Heaven and God's call to write Imagine the God of Heaven
-A note around discernment as we listen to near death testimonies and anchoring our theology in scripture
-A Hindu man's experience with heaven, hell, a narrow gate, and his conversion to Christianity
-Three of the ten points of evidence for life after death
-How we reconcile different reports of Jesus's eye color and appearance
-Reports of experiencers SEEING prayers in heaven and realizing the power of our prayers
-A beautiful account of a former agnostic who dies and encounters Jesus and experiences a joy he has never known (if you have lost a child you want to hear this)
-His hope for every reader (per my closing note)
"Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'" -John 14:6 NIV
"All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, Lord; they will bring glory to your name." -Psalm 86:9 NIV

It is always a blessing to hear pastor John Burke sharing light on these NDE's experiences and their connection with Jesus & Heaven.

[@TonyTooTuff]

Thank you. I cried when I heard about his reunion with his dog. I lost my 3 Great Danes and other pets that I love dearly. I mourned harder for my dogs than I did for my parents. I knew I would see my parents again but wasn’t sure about my critters. Thank you Father for giving us the desires of our hearts when we follow you.

I’ve listen to a lot of NDE.I was inspired to read the Bible and so This started to be very interesting to me to hear about God and Jesus from near death because I know we are all one with God ..

[@williamchoi808]

I experienced a NDE-lite while I was alive and well about 5 years ago. The attributes of the experience matched a handful of NDE common attributes.

This was so inspiring & awesome, thank you both & God Bless! Your amazing work is bringing many to Jesus Christ. I will get John’s latest book & I so look forward to reading it! ✝️🙏🏻

In heaven we are souls .eartly body wouldn't be able to be in heaven so this helps to understand a soul can be there ...

Jesus is my hero. I do not need anything but YOU JESUS ❤❤❤

[@EternalDestiny48]

I love John Burke and the subject but I am really burned out on the silence of God when we are here. So God is wonderful and loving and has a great sense of humor on the other side but when we cry out for him for years we get nothing but silence.. it hurts me so much. God silence and absence are too much

Blessed are those that believe and yet don’t have outward manifestations! Most all use have to live by faith. Please don’t lose heart my friend

[@DeboraSpadino]

I understand and struggle with that too! I found some comfort in the writings of “ John of the cross” He describes how god sometimes leads us into “the dark night of the soul” where he removes the comforts of feeling his presence to Free us from unhealthy demands and attachments till we rest in the knowledge of his presence without getting emotionally a high. I hope that makes sense. But yes- I. Longing and looking forward to the day where I can feel the intimacy with god again…this side or that side of heaven;)

Check out Mark Virkler’s books and he is on KZbin, on hearing God’s voice. One of his books “Dialogues With God” 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻This can help a LOT:-)

The apologetic for today!

[@anbrod1]

Find it very hard to understand/except, when , people NDE experiences say No jugements, everybody goes to heaven what ever there lives on earth has been!!! That would make the Sacrifice of Christ completly useless!!! Jesus is the Way the Life and the Truth!!!!
