Jesus, Near-Death Experiences & Religion - v1.1

The Story
A 20-year-old man had a near-death experience from double lobar pneumonia. Doctors pronounced him dead for 9.5 minutes. He realized his body was dead and saw an intense light enter the room. He stood in the presence of Jesus, the Son of God. Jesus showed him a detailed review of his life from birth to age 20 and asked what he had done with it. Jesus accepted and loved him fully despite knowing everything about him. He toured four realms of the afterlife and learned God loves all people regardless of religion. He discovered life choices determine the afterlife realm, life continues forever, and the universe holds intelligent life on many planets. Jesus showed him diverse beings from other worlds and explained untapped human powers like teleportation. He did not want to return. After reviving, he gained a deeper sense of God's love and became less judgmental. He wrote a book to share his story and now helps abused and marginalized people realize their worth.
