Two dead, visit heaven, come back to life!

Below are two amazing incidents that have been reported to me in the past few days of a man and then a woman dying, visiting heaven, then returning.

In the first incident, a man met Jesus and received an end-time message to tell upon his return.  The second message also has a profound end-time meaning .

Incident # 1.  I received this in the mail from Jim P.

In April, 1989 my father was sick with cancer (smoking cigarettes).  He was really bad off.  The doctors said he only had a couple of months to live and he would have to stay in the hospital. 

In July, 1989 he was pronounced dead, but then he mysteriously came back to life.   The doctors could not explain why or how his amazing recovery led him to feel well enough to leave the hospital.  I remember talking with my father and he told me that he went on an amazing journey.  He told me that he had personally met the Lord.   He told me of a tunnel of light that he was going through, and when he got to the end of it he saw the most beautiful light in the world.  That light was so bright, but it didn't hurt his eyes.  At this point the Lord spoke to him and said, "Your work on earth is not yet done.  Go and tell everyone that the end is near and I am coming soon."  It was at this point that my father came back to life.   He was released from the hospital and started out by going to our church and telling everyone of his mission.  He then traveled to other churches to tell the Lord's message.  On June 26, 1990, my father passed on.  And I know without a doubt, by the look in his eyes when he told me he had met the Lord, it was true....

I hope this story will remind you never to give up in what we both believe in...

Incident # 2. I received this in an e-mail from Ann W.

I friend of mine, named _____ , is a prayer warrior and powerful intercessor.  On June 10, 1994 this Panamanian woman was pronounced dead from complications of metastatic pancreatic cancer, and was transferred to the morgue at the West Florida Medical center in Pensacola. Five hours later a nurse found her moving and mumbling; she was then transferred back to the ICU. Her testimony is a fascinating account of things in hell and heaven that was shown to her by angels (she never saw Jesus). She saw crystal mansions, robes and crowns being made by angels for the saints, and also saw a valley of white horses for the saints' return with Jesus to claim the earth. She saw another valley of "spotted" horses which she said are reserved for the prophets. The angels performed an "operation" of sorts on her, and when she came to life she was healed. (As a friend and physician,
I have her medical records and CT scans in my possession and am helping her to write her story as her English is poor).

I share that to give you some of her background. This woman is so close to Jesus, that during periods of extensive fasting she actually speaks with him face-to-face. She has asked him many questions such as the reason why people have that little "compression" in the skin directly over the upper lip. Jesus told her that when he made Adam out of clay, before the breath of life was breathed into him, he pressed his finger over his mouth as if to tell him "hush" like a "forewarning" for him to control his mouth. Her testimonies are nothing short of a wonder to hear.

Last week, ____ dreamed that Jesus was in the sky, enveloped in a cloud around his waist. His hands were stretched open, and he was looking to-and-fro over the earth searching for his saints. She saw saints in white gowns in the air, but more notable she said were the people on the ground.
She said many, many more people were on the ground than in the air, and they were naked. Old men and women, middle aged men and women, boys and girls, all naked, were crying out to Jesus to take them. But Jesus paid them no heed and kept looking back and forth for his saints who donned their white robes. When I heard the dream I said, "____, that is the harvest (the first resurrection/rapture)!" She responded, "Yes; that's what my pastor said." I asked her if she knew why the people were naked, and she replied she did not. I then showed her these two passages of scriptures, which she received with delight:

"Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked" (2 Cor. 5:3).

"Behold, I come like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake and keeps his clothes with him so that he may not go naked and be shamefully exposed" (Revelation 16:15).

And so, without doubt, this was more than a "dream." Since our wedding clothes represent the "RIGHTEOUS ACTS of the saints," let's take heed every moment to be faithful to the call and watch for the signs of his return.  Let's be diligent to feed the poor, shelter the homeless, preach the gospel, cast out demons, heal the sick, disciple the nations, and so not be found naked upon his return! In the words of Paul, let us "clothe ourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ" (Romans 13:14) and as Job so eloquently spoke, "Put on righteousness as our clothing, justice as our robe and turban, be eyes to the blind and feet to the lame, be a father to the needy, take up the case of the stranger, break the fangs of the wicked and snatch the victims from their teeth (29:14-17).

Righteous acts do not "save" us; but they do make heavenly wedding gowns.

NOTE:  In incident # 1 above, if God said, "The end is near" in 1989," it may not seem like "near" to us now 11 years later.  However, God's sense of timing is not like ours.  Also, I have reason to believe that 1988-1989 was a pivotal, watershed period on God's end-time calendar.  The man's father gave his message for about one year, passing on in 1990, the first year of an amazing decade of end-time events, including the Oslo Accords and later other agreements between Israel and the PLO, which now seem all dead.  It was ten years later, in September 2000, that CNN headlines blared, "The battle for Jerusalem has begun," on Tishri 1, exactly seven years to the day after Oslo was ratified by the Knesset.  If the end was "near" in 1989, it is much near-er now!
