African pastor, dead in mortuary for three days, returns to tell his experience

The videos of the account of Pastor Daniel Ekechukwu’s resurrection are hard to understand in places.  For more information, see the link at the bottom of this post.

Nigerian pastor Daniel Ekechukwu physically died in the late evening of Friday, November 30th, 2001, was dead for at least 42 hours, visited heaven and hell during the time of his physical death, and was raised from the dead between 3:50 P.M. and 5:15 P.M. on Sunday, December 2nd, 2001 in the basement of the Grace of God Mission, located in Onitsha, Nigeria.

———————

Part 1 – Introduction of the events preceding his death.

———————

Part 2 – Angelic encounter in the ambulance where they take him to heaven and explain the differences between the gathering of the angels vs the gathering of the saints.

———————

Part 3 – Description of the heavenly mansions and singing flowers.  Then an angel takes Daniel to hell where he describes the experience…the angel explains the reason why the pastor encounters a soul who practiced witchcraft (Rev 21:8).

———————-

Part 4 –  The angel explains to Daniel why if the book of life was closed, hell would be Daniel’s portion.  Powerful message about reaping the harvest of unforgiveness and Daniel’s insatiable desire for revenge…

———————–

Part 5 – Daniel’s experience about coming back to his body, which was lying in the mortuary for three days.

———————–

Much more information about this story can be found here.

A Point to Ponder:

1) I was thinking about the number of views this video received so far: Views: 22,271.  Compare that to Susan Boyle: Views: 78,717,532.  Just thought I’d throw that in.

2) Regarding salvation–if everyone is going to heaven, why did Jesus have to die?

Tour the White House online [photos/videos]

I’ve never toured the White House but I’m grateful for websites like this that make it possible.  It has too many features to mention so you’ll just have to visit and see for yourself.  Sit back and enjoy the tour.

First floor of the East Wing

First floor of the East Wing

This online tour will take you through more than 140 areas in the grounds and mansion of the White House with photos and illustrations going back more than 200 years.

…This Web site is a private, unofficial, online effort to provide a place to explore the history and heritage of the home of the president of the United States of America…This site merely celebrates the architecture, history, and cultural significance of the White House in America and abroad.

I decided to create an online museum-like tour of the White House residence, offices, and grounds to help educate people on the amazing 200-year-old mansion, museum, state event host, office building, television and radio studio, and intelligence operations center known so simply as “The White House.”

DON’T MISS this 6 part documentary on “NDE”s: Near Death Experiences [6 videos]

BBC
BBC (via last.fm)

These videos are part of a BBC documentary on near death experiences–the believers and the skeptics.  It is quite an interesting study.  Especially

  • The case of a woman who’d been blind since birth and describes her thoughts when she sees the afterlife.
  • The heavenly wisdom given to a shrewd businessman that changed his life.

But the most hair-raising testimony was of the woman in Part 4…She sees her uncle [3:29] and is aware that she’s surrounded by light.  “Is the light was God,” she asks. [3:50].  The uncle’s answer is nothing but spectacular [3:55]: “No, the light isn’t God.  The light is what happens with God breathes.”  She speaks to the interviewer and says, ” I distinctly remember that I was standing in the breath of God.”

One of THE BEST dance groups I have seen yet!  Talk about synchronization!  Absolutely FLAWLESS.

This contestant is six years old and gets over 53 million YouTube views.  Maybe this is what Susan Boyle sounded like when she was six.

BONUS VIDEO…

Here’s one in memory of my mother.  She loved this song and would have cried tears of joy if she’d heard Connie sing this.  I remember singing this in various convents as a little girl.
