Narratives Responses: Narrative responses by near-death experiencers to the NDERF survey question “During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness that God or a supreme being either does (or does not) exist?”
This page contains over 300 near-death experiences (NDEs) and their narrative responses to the NDERF survey question “During your experience, did you encounter any specific information / awareness that God or a supreme being either does (or does not) exist (***experience only)?” Narrative responses that specifically addressed this question are included.
Methodology:
Experiences were scored as near-death experiences (NDEs) if they met all of the following:
1. A lucid, organized experience occurring at the time of a life-threatening event so severe that there is unconsciousness or clinically apparent death with an absent heartbeat.
2. An NDE Scale score of 7 or higher.
3. Shared by the individual who personally had the NDE.
4. Shared in non-English language via either the English version of the NDERF survey, or the foreign language translations of the NDERF survey on nderf.org.
These are NDEs from the most recent version of the NDERF survey (nderf.org). They are sequentially shared NDEs from November 11, 2011 to April 8, 2021. All accounts were scored as NDEs if they met the above criteria and regardless of experience content to avoid bias in studying the content of the NDEs.
The NDEs posted on the NDERF website are edited to correct obvious spelling and grammar errors. As remarkable as the NDEs are in this list, please remember that they accurately represent the real experiences of near-death experiencers (NDErs) from all walks of life and around the world.
We strive to make a larger collection of NDEs that include statements from NDErs about encountering God or a supreme being during their NDEs. We would be delighted to collaborate in this endeavor with anyone with other credible internet sources of NDErs discussing God/supreme being they encountered during their NDEs.
This list is public domain and may be used by anyone.
Substantial efforts are made to minimize the risk of posting fraudulent NDE accounts on nderf.org: See a more detailed explanation.
We strive for accuracy in this list. If any NDEs should not be included for any reason, please email us at nderf@nderf.org with the NDE registry number and URL. Thanks!
Even a brief review of the NDEs below shows that NDErs often are aware of God or a supreme being during their NDEs. The narrative responses below were directly shared on the NDERF survey and are without grammatical or spelling corrections.

The emptiness and darkness confirmed a void of peace and/or God. The cross symbolized the faith that I now follow and the voice was that of Jesus.

I am now aware that God (who is undescribable, unimaginable and not human) is definetly the creator of the universe and everything within in it. Life on earth is a transition. I now believe that depending on how you lived your life here and how much you acknowledge God - determines where he will put you in the next life.

I felt that there was an enormous universal energy and that every single thing on earth had an energy and every star and cloud and every single thing had an energy and that all these things combined were the Universal energy or being and everything had a place or a form that they chose.

It's weird. What happened was that I became part of (or returned to) the presence that was so amazing. The closest analogy I can come up with is Odo in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, when he would go to his home planet and return to the collective. Only everything in the universe is part of this collective. In essence the universe IS the collective. Rather difficult to explain because it's outside the realm of human experience.

I believe "the voice" I spoke of earlier was, in fact, my Creator...who could offer me a choice to stay or re-enter my life but the One who gives life? There was such a sense of familiarity, of calmness and serenity,it could have been no other...

I don't know if God exists the way people imagine him. Anyway, people imagine Him all different ways. But somebody has a plan. Or somebodies. Or some entity. Call it or Him God, because there is no other word.

Yes I believe the powerful love energy exists and is in all of us or rather we can be filled with that energy from the source. He is a pure form of love. Plants and animals can sense the positive energy and I can sense it. It is what makes the planet survive. I am afraid that people do not understand this and they follow human gods. I can tell the difference between a human god and the real God because I was there. I have seen the past from the beginning of man to the present time. Life is very simple. There is love and hate. The way to recognize God is by love. I believe that near death experiences should be listened to and learned from because I believe it holds the truths to our existence. We can learn a great deal from one another. I am glad to share my experiences because I feel a great overwhelming need to share spirituality with everyone. I love God deeply and I want to honor and defend Him. I get upset when people blame Him for things. They don't realize that the negative energy felt by themselves and others is a cause and effect. God put the world into motion but we control ourselves. He is always there for love but we are here to learn. When we love ourselves deeply like He does then we will understand that He lives in us. This world is a beautiful place. I love the Earth as a gift to us from God. I hope we don't destroy it and each other with hate energy.

Natalie S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1natalie_s_nde.html
In my book I describe it this way: The one reality includes all beingness or consciousness. It is the endlessly unknowable infinity of creativity and an apparent paradox of infinite numbers of unique individuals that are simultaneously one. This encompassing connection is within and of, and creates, is created by, and moves through each unique being, and is part of all while also existing separately from what I’ll call “All That Is.” This All That Is can be perceived simultaneously as a force and as an individual consciousness that exists within each consciousness and yet is separate from each consciousness or being. It’s what might be referred to as God, but the ideas of gods that we have are a pale and incomplete shadow of the All That Is that I perceive. Projecting an idea of a god or gods upon that infinite creative consciousness inevitably limits an understanding of the All That Is in ways that reflect the severely limited comprehension that we have of ourselves and the physical universe.

I experienced what science calls the "unified field" and what I call God. I believe that I was in the presence of God (the lighted energy of divne love that I encountered).

Cory G NDE

Yes indeed, there is definitely a supreme being, a "master plan" and it's possible to know "the truth". This was revealed to me but my puny Human faculties were unable to capture it all, as if a computer runs out of memory. I recall "knowing" everything while in this state, but lost most of it when I came back.
6284
Samuel C NDE

God definitely exists and is total love. The feeling was incredible love of one whom you would do anything for and whom would do anything for you.

Brian G NDE

Well...I certainly believe in God, thus there was either an actuality or assumption that God was present.

Anne N NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1anne_n_nde_6288.html
God does Exist, He came to me. He was a presence of such supreme, unearthly love and compassion that there is no Human emotion to match it. I have no Doubt that I was in the Presence of God. I felt His Being, and I haeard his voice: He said on;ly one thing in a voice of complete tender compassion: are you too tired? and I knew He was asking me if I was ready to go with Him through the door to death. I was never afraid just in awe wonder and joy.

Mary H NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1mary_h_nde.html
Once again, God never spoke to me personally, nor did anyone really, except for the woman telling me to go back. But like above, I felt it. And that feeling is revealing in terms of God. Only God can make you feel like that, and he let me feel like that, even though it was only momentarily. I have been a believer since. Especially in my daily life. I observe so many people every single day, whom wear misery on their face's, and complaing about this and that, and getting mad about things that are so small and trivial. I am no longer like that. I am not perfect, and I'm not saying I no longer have experienced anger since, but my temperment and mentality, and problem solving is for sure increased, ten fold.
6371
Robyn O NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1robyn_o_nde.html
My interpretation was of great knowledge of self and belongedness and peace and joy (etc). God is a word that works (because I don't know another), but it felt like more to me. (than I expected as a catholic)

Arvind B NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1arvind_b_nde.html
I could feel (is it a right word, don't know) that my Goddess Kalika is there on the other side of that beam of bright light that was coming from outside the hall. I was happy to know that she is there outside. I bowed and tried to see her.
6394
Enrique NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1enrique_nde.html
I know for sure that god exist..the word love was the last word I said..I later realized my wife had recently put a bible quote in the bathroom that states love is patient,love is kind ,love endures all love things..this to me was no coincidence.it is almost like god knew this was goin to happen and she was driven to place this frame there.I never payed this word love much attention.what exactly drove me to even ask god to show me how to love.since then the word love has a whole differnt more profound meaning

6405
Demi B NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1demi_b_nde.html
I didn't see a God like being, I saw no beings, but was immediately aware that there was a power there that has been described as God. This energy was communicating with me and this energy gave me very specific messages. This was also the same energy that told me I had to return to my body, that I hadn't completed the things I was sent to do. I felt totally at one with this energy, it was a part of me, as if I was the energy source and was communicating with myself, but I knew it was a much higher power that I was a part of. I feel that this energy, or God like awareness is within myself and that being in the tunnel I became one with it, or somehow my spirit allowed this awareness to return to me. I knew that all knowledge was in the light and that once there I would be and know everything and was anxious to enter it, it was like going home only magnified a billion times. I was comforted, accepted, loved and I felt a total connection with the supreme energy force.

Chantal L NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1chantal_l_nde.html
This collective consciousness that I became part of, is God. Or that is the feeling I got. It is a state of pure energy and pure love. Everything is energy on the other side.

Jobe S NDE

Tamara J NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1tamara_j_nde.html
I was with God and God was everything and I could see what He saw and understand what He wanted me to understand. I was shown parts of my past and how God intervened and cared for me. I was told and shown that He is always caring for me. That worry is a waste of time. That there is no condemnation. That I am going to return someday and enjoy the utter joy and peace of heaven forever.

https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1carol_v_nde.html
I experienced what GOD is. Different from all other entities I encountered, GOD is the Alpha and Omega and so perfect and saturated in LIGHT and JOY and LOVE that there is no room for anything but perfection. I have a whole chapter just describing GOD, in my book.

Tommy P NDE

Peter N NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1peter_n_nde_6584.html
Think this dealt with in the main narrative. That being of light that I was with I would regard as 'God' though I wouldn't refer to it as that because the term 'God' is wholly inadequate in trying to describe what it is. I prefer to just refer to it as 'It' û this gets away from the God word and the limitations and the abuses it has been put over the years by us humans.

6624
Colleen J NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1colleen_j_nde.html
I knew presence, and it was intelligent and in later years as a child expressed and described god as this light and peace and love. But definitely no "human-like" god, just presence. I was also 4 so didnt have the concept of "god" yet, so only in retrospect could I guess that the knowing presence and "home" feeling could be called something divine.
6636
Robyn NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1robyn_nde.html
Instead of God, I will use the term Source, as it has neither masculine or feminine energy to distort the message. Source is the source, the ONE infinite consciousness. Source has one desire, to know itself. Who am I? Source cannot know itself unless it divides itself into two, thus having another perspective to see itself from. This is where polarity and expansion cycles into eternity.

She was bright and I felt her love immediately (and yes God is a female) She looked like the sun- with love coming off of her in rays (it's hard to explain- but she reminded me of a painting of the sun I saw when I was very young- with light illuminating off of her body in the center). She hugged me and she was suddenly gone.

Annette Q NDE

I was aware of his presence. I was drawn to the light, but knew in my heart i had to go back to my children. He cam to me as an definite awareness of being and i asked Him to go back to my children. I know He is God of no denomination. The supreme being.
6678
Miles NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1miles_nde.html
I believe I experienced the presence of what appeared to be our physical Christ. Although I had no physical being, the only other than the light and myself was the physical-appearing cross and our Christ. The overwhelming experience of positive emotions lead me to believe that I have experienced what it is to be in the presence of our father.

Martin J NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1martin_j_nde.html
See above in description of experience. The light and the presence of the entity. It was clearly God. It was present everywhere and a part of everything. There were no limits on the power of God. There was unconditional acceptance, forgiveness, and Love.

Joan LH NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1joan_lh_nde.html
My image of God transformed from the image of Trinity to a God that is truly All that is - a force, a power - LOVE. I simply FELT this to be true. We are all part of god, and so is everything. God certainly exists - but not like most people imagine, certainly not like I had imagined.

Lael NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1lael_nde.html

Yazmine S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1yazmine_s_nde.html
The Goldenness was like all knowing and wisdom..whereas the sheer clarity of the Brilliant Light was what one may call 'God'..however I cannot really say that as it seems to me we are incorrect to name such Sacred Holiness and power.. as such I can only say I have witnessed the ultimate of all that is was and ever shall be,yet I cannot name that which cannot be described.

Justin M NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1justin_m_nde_7131.html

Romy NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1romy_nde.html
The light that I encountered felt supreme- I can call it unending, unconditional, immense love, a force that feels eternal, powerful and creative at the same time, which satisfies my definition of "God".
7157
Kathy VB NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1kathy_vb_nde.html

7245
Brenda R NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1brenda_r_nde.html
It was God whom spoke to me. I knew it was God because it says in the Bible that those whom believe will know his voice. I really wanted to see him but could not turn around to see him.
7251
Mary C NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1mary_c_nde.html

7303
Bella J NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1bella_j_nde.html
Specific focus by one entity my soul recognized as God. I was part of the great white light; I sensed many entities filled with love, goodness, peace...words are difficult to find to describe the Oneness with All state of being my sense of existence entered into.

Marie W NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1marie_w_nde.html

Robert T NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1robert_t_nde_7256.html
I am unsure but seemed like I saw god himself...seems bold to say...but the face in the light altered several times...one face turned out to be my grandfather whom I never had seen until three years later...unsure of proof of the other faces but I am sure it will reveal itself when I am worthy

Barbara S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1barbara_s_nde.html
There was definitely a separate personality from myself. Since all I saw was a white light that enveloped me I felt I was the same as the light. I didn't see any physical body on myself. Is this white light God, I don't know. The light didn't say it was but I felt I was part of it. I am the light also.
7387
Lyndall W NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1lyndall_w_nde.html
I was aware of an energy that was not myself. This energy was all loving and pervasive. It did not have a form such as related to pictures in the bible. This energy was separate to the panel of beings who assisted me with my viewing of my life and decision to return.
7392
Kevin E NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1kevin_e_nde.html
GOD exists, and we can never truly know or understand Him, which is why we have Angels, or if you are Christian, Jesus, who was like an Avatar sent to our realm, as with all the prophets, so we could relate to GOD (Allah, swt).

Hailey M NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1hailey_m_nde.html

7578
Scott W NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1scott_w_nde.html
What I call God, is the Loving Creative Light.. To define it, seems to do it disservice and be dishonor.. It's not the God we have been taught in religion, it's not male or female, it is true to what I have been taught as a Great Spirit. This is the power of all powers, the truth, the illumination of wisdom and the Highest Love..

Joanne L NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1joanne_l_nde.html
I don't know about a god but there was an incredible power of energy and love that came from a much higher force. It felt more like the sorce of purity. Unlike my fathers energy which was loving this higher power was billions of times more powerful.

Elizabeth T NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1elizabeth_t_nde.html

7743
Duane S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1duane_s_nde.html
I had a perfect awareness of their being a God, who was the totality of the universe. I was aware that all of us were created out of part of God's great soul, in his image and likeness. When we come to the physical realm, we Dawn and 'earth suit' that allows us to interact with each other in the physical realm. But each of us are simply part of God's unique soul. We are sent here with our divine creative abilities to enjoy our existence, planning our lives (reade 'roles,' in advance, with other parts of the design soul.) This is for our amusement, as well of the as the God part of us that shares this body with this, and runs its two or 3 trillion cells, as our monkey mind plays its fun and games.

https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1goldie_t_nde.html

Melisa A NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1melisa_a_nde.html

7817
Lisa S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1lisa_s_nde_7817.html

Philip S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1philip_s_nde.html

7885
Sonya N NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1sonya_n_nde.html
Jesus is like a reflection of God in a mirror that mankind can look upon. God the whole being is too holy. I think how else do I explain? He is so holy. But Jesus we can touch.
7910
Kylie A NDE

7913
Debbie NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1debbie_nde_7913.html

7917
Alicia A NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1alicia_a_nde.html
The larger energy seems to be GOd like. I'm not 100 percent sure if that was him, but i almost feel as though it was a god or a higher being.
7922
Mary M NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1mary_m_nde_7922.html

Paul D NDE

Celso NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1celso_nde.html
I think this is the most important answer of my experience. Why people find different images of the concept God. Why there are people who think the concept God does not exist. At least, I think now I have an answer for it.
8024
Jeffrey C NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1jeffrey_c_nde_8024.html

8034
Diana H NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1diana_h_nde.html
Oh my yes! God Himself is love and communicates this incredible all encompassing love. He holds back nothing and wants us to tell everyone how very much He loves them. The warmth and the light are incredible. In His presence you understand everything and feel no shame. An incredible compassion is communicated! I could not have begun to make something up like this in my physical mind. everything i heard saw and learned changed my perspective of who God is and how I am to live in this physical earth suit.

Newt J NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1newt_j_nde.html

https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1karen_m_nde_8141.html
I knew God and was very aware of God's presence and existence as separate from me and as part of me.
8147
Kathryn Y NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1kathryn_y_nde.html
Yes….God…..as a state of higher consciousness- one love- one being!
8151
Jeremy NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1jeremy_nde.html
I was absolutely aware that God was watching and close. I didn't see God but I'd say I was calm in God's presence.

God spoke

BJ K NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1bj_k_nde.html
The being seemed pretty much in charge, not in an overbearing way but rather, in an undeniable presence way.
8157
Pat S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1pat_s_nde.html
the person that greeted me was a supreme being
8166
Bobbie K NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1bobbie_k_nde_8166.html
I knew I was in the presence of God, whose message to me was, 'I love you and I am always with you.'

Joseph S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1joseph_s_nde_8190.html
In my experience, there was no God or singular supreme being. I did not feel any other spiritual force or awareness of that. I won't go as far as to say that there is no God, but if I were to base my answer to is there one God based solely on my experience alone, I would say 'no'. I say this because, during that experience, it didn't seem important. I felt that I was important and not some supreme being. I feel like that idea of God is based on our earthy desires and fears and not in any kind of actual truth.
8195
William C NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1william_c_nde.html
While in the presence of the light i understood that all life is eternal because we are all connected. We are a collective consciousness. We merely transform into another dimension. This life is all about love because once we are in the presence of god love is the only emotion. Love is god's chosen emotion. Love is really greater than an emotion but for the purpose and confines of language i will refer to love as an emotion.
8213
Katherine L NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1katherine_l_nde.html
I communicated with an ascended master who I believed was closer to God than the other beings there, so I must have had some knowledge at the time that God existed.
8216
Kustav K NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1kustav_k_nde.html
It could be that the voice I heard was God.
8225
Debra H NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1debra_h_nde.html
I definitely knew that The Love is God.
8249
Dana M NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1dana_m_nde.html
I did not correlate the love and acceptance and warmth of the experience with a God-like entity. I think I was too young to understand God as a concept. Only as I've matured have I come to the understanding that The Great Center was present on that beach, not as one of the beings with me, but all around us there, caring for and wanting the best for all of us.
8250
Karen T NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1karen_t_nde.html

Amy C NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1amy_c_nde_8259.html
It was an awareness. It just was. It was a certainty where you just knew ok this is how it is. As sure as feeling a rain drop let's you know it's raining.

https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1judy_g_nde_8329.html
God is Complete Unconditional Love. God is Pure Light. God is 'larger than religion'. 'God is 'larger than Earth and Earth's culture'. God is Science, all knowledge/intelligence and beyond description. God loves us more than we can imagine.

PJ P NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1pj_p_nde.html
It is love, that is the only answer. Everything that isn't love isn't creating but destroying.
8350
Aaron M NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1aaron_m_nde.html
I could see and feel and became one with a higher energy that is much greater than anything ever experienced. It taught me everything there was to know about existence. It did not call itself god or a higher being. It did not really name itself at all. But i am sure it was comparable to god - though it was not a man and it was somehow one thing and thousands (maybe millions) of things all at once.
8354
Heidi C NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1heidi_c_nde.html
I was surround by God. The light is Love. The Light is God. We are all connected. We are all one.

I know there is a God now - He held me in his arms and made me understand the word awesome.
8380
Missy M NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1missy_m_nde.html
I saw Jesus from a distance, he spoke to me in a sense, more like thought. He touched me, but I didn't feel a physical touch, only love. God was all around me. GOD REALLY IS LOVE.
8422
Doug F NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1doug_f_nde.html
Everything is god. I would not use the word god, but it answers your question
8440
Ingrid H NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1ingrid_h_nde.html
I didn't know the meaning of God before the NDE, but during the NDE I experienced absolute bliss, love and joy beyond anything I had ever experienced in my human form and that is what I recognize as God.
8454
Robyn C NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1robyn_c_nde.html
I could sense there was a force or God or energy and that was where I was heading to
8460
Jeri W NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1jeri_w_nde.html
A feeling of an all-encompassing something. I call it a higher power. God/supreme being doesn't sound/feel right. It's close but not correct, if that makes any sense. There's almost a sense of humor... there is this thing, and we are all part of it, and so it is amusing when we talk about it as separate to ourselves, when we are intrinsic to it.
8466
Lynn Z NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1lynn_z_nde.html
Again, it wasn't communicated to me as such, but I for sure felt that the person made of love was much, much, much superior to me, if He not the Creator or God Himself.
8508
Judie S NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1judie_s_nde.html
There was a presence felt that was a higher being.

Laurie L NDE

I believe I met my guardian angel, and two archangels during my NDE. I felt the presence of God all around me.
8533
Bridget B NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1bridget_b_nde.html
I was able to meet God and speak to GOD... as stated in my entire story
8543
Michael L NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1michael_l_nde_8543.html
I felt like I 'knew' everything for just an instant. I realized then that God is 'Knowing'. That's the only way I could have described it at that time, but I knew with my whole being that a Supreme Force of some kind existed.
8545
James R NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1james_r_nde_8545.html
I was aware of who I call God or should I say came to me as God but not in the Biblical since.
8556
Evelyn D NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1evelyn_d_nde.html
If asked, I would say that God is Light. An all knowing, ever present, eternal Light that permeates all of creation.

8559
Jeff H NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1jeff_h_nde.html
I feel that our religious concept of what God is, might be off a little. I really get the feeling that God is where we all come from, but I don't know if I can accurately define what God is, or is not.
8562
Richard G NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1richard_g_nde_8562.html

A figure sitting on a throne no fear addressing me
8603
Douglas B NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1douglas_b_nde.html
I also had the feeling, but never heard it read, that all the events of my life had been read, and were known. Through this I felt no fear, or uncertainty, just a complete sense of calm, as I heard, and saw the words passing before me. I don’t recall all the scripture I saw before me, but I do recall seeing the Gospel of John, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God…”
8604
Alma B NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1alma_b_nde.html
What can I say. It happened. I saw the Glisten of the Eye of God, and It Healed me and Loved me beyond any description.

Lauren J NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1lauren_j_nde.html
There was definitely a spiritual guide there, holding my hand. But it all felt like stepping into the Oneness - The heart of the Universe - perhaps another name for God.
8718
Laurence B NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1laurence_b_nde.html
I felt three distinct being and more of a place. One was the presence of God, the second was Jesus and the third was the teacher of guide but much bigger telling me to go back.
8724
Telesa H NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1telesa_h_nde.html
All life begins with a spark from the central source... At the time that conception takes place there is a visible spark of light, that creates the body's soul.A spark of divinity. We all hold a piece of the divine within us.
8726
William R NDE

The light and love was real. There was a mutuality of openness, bonding, and I sensed a wanting more of this contact we had.
8738
Erin K NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1erin_k_nde_8738.html
I felt like what we know as 'God' was a very alive and dynamic living force that flowed through al of our hearts and connected us all to one another, and the greater universe.
8744
June S NDE

When I asked if it was a hallucinating, I saw Christ. If Christ is the son of God, then God exists.
8759
Jean K NDE

There is a 'Source' and it exists aside and among us, with us. The source can be reached through discussion in your mind or verbally or just through emotions
8805
Rachel F NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1rachel_f_nde.html
To me, the light was ‘God’ though I still struggle to use that word and don’t choose it in conversation when describing my experience. It doesn’t fit the description of ‘God’ on Earth. But it was all creation.
8821
Pamela H NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1pamela_h_nde.html
God is God he exists he was the bright light that I can't describe in the love and the warmth in the piece that was drawing me to him

8871
Alice U NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1alice_u_nde.html
Simply from the nature of my experience it seemed eself-vident that God exists. In fact for a long time I thought perhaps I had encountered God but then decided against it that I had met a lesser yet still powerful and loving being
8876
Bryan C NDE

James M NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1james_m_nde_8973.html
I felt the touch of something that I instinctivly knew as being the touch of God, or the creator of everything that can possibly exist... the fabric of existence itself.
8994
Laura K NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1laura_k_nde.html
Jesus Himself asked me if I want to see where 'I' was. I saw Jesus sitting next to God. Although I did not see God since there was a white round cloud in front of Him, I could see His side and back. They were both sitting on large, white, tall back chairs.

I felt the existence of love and belonging and welcoming home, yes I didn’t feel or see any shape but the feeling was so real and felt so true, I’m sorry I don’t know what to say Or describe other than I felt I was with god or the creator

Van I NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1van_i_nde.html
I met him and and talked to him many times since. He is real. I was a total unbeliever prior to this. Know I am what I like to call a 'knower'. That is to mean I haven't faith that he exists... I KNOW he exists because I've met him as clear as when you go outside and met your neighbor. You do not have faith your neighbor exists. You KNOW they do because you've seen them and met them.
9061
Stephen K NDE
https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1stephen_k_nde.html
I felt the warm sensation of pure love. I understood not that God exists but that I am a part of God -- like an atom in a greater body.

https://www.nderf.org/Experiences/1chris_c_nde_9105.html
I only know what I experienced, which is nothing like anything in this normal earthy life. So I know that something else exists than is apprehended by standard human perception and scientific study, but what / where / how / when are not clear to me.
