Number 7 in the series The World of Souls

Heaven and Hell are a heartbeat away! Most people who visit the World of Souls desribe "going into the Light," a being of pure love, but not every Near Death Experience is so positive. What does the scripture teach us about the Great Light? And what do Near Death Experiences tell us about the other side of the great divide? 

The blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light. (1 Timothy 6:15-16)

Number 6 in the series The World of Souls

"My whole life flashed before my eyes!" In the World of Souls, everyone gives an account for all the deeds committed in the body. This teaching compares the Jewish concept of Cheshbon HaNefesh (Account of the Soul) with reports of Near Death Experiences in which a person goes through a complete life review.

Number 5 in the series The World of Souls

People on their deathbeds often report seeing angelic beings or even the presence of deceased family members. Are these merely hallucinations created by a dying brain, or are they glimpses into the World of Souls. This teaching from Shabbat Vayechi explores the meaning behind the biblical euphemism of being gathered to one's people.

When Jacob finished commanding his sons, he drew up his feet into the bed and breathed his last and was gathered to his people (Genesis 49:33)

Number 4 in the series The World of Souls

Are reports of Near Death Experiences (NDE) credible? People resuscitated from clinical brain-death sometimes report out-of-body experiences in the World of Souls. Does that correlate with the Bible? Do these reports have anything to teach us about the state of the dead before the resurrection? This teaching explores the NDE in light of traditional Jewish teaching and New Testament expectation.
