Do you believe?
« on: March 08, 2015, 09:37:03 am »
Do you believe in life after death? Do you believe in signs from the after life? I do... I recently encountered something and I do not believe in coincidences, there are no such things. About a year ago I was driving and on this vehicles plate, the beginning was "DTA". I immediately thought of an old friend (1st Internet boyfriend in 1995) and i wondered how he was. The next day, same thing... Driving, saw a bumper sticker "DTA".... this guy used to tell me this and it was part of his email address. So now i felt sick to my stomach and started to cry... I had an awful feeling that he was dead! Years prior I tried searching for him online and did not find anything. Although I found his brother 5 years ago on Facebook, he ignored me. So I let it go until about 3 yrs ago, I looked on the brothers Facebook page and find out his mom died. I felt so bad at the time. I wrote him an old fashion letter and mailed it to his last known address. No response! I even emailed him and nothing. There was a chance he moved out of state because I remember him telling me this. 3 days ago he crossed my mind again... I searched for him online, the 1st thing that came up was his obituary and then his Facebook page that he created in 2012. He died in 2013 at the age of 36, 2 yrs ago this passed January and im still in shock BUT I do believe he was sending me a sign that he was not here any more and that he was OK. What are your thoughts?

The bible supports the dead are conscience of NOTHING!!God told Adam he would go back to dust at death,non-existence.Jesus said Lazarus was sleeping before he resurrected him.Lazarus spoke of NO heavenly bliss or hell when Jesus brought him back to life.

Evil spirits influence against what Gods word teaches.If you support the bible you know the truth and it sets you free.If you dont you fall victim to the ruler of this world <satan>.Remember he offered Jesus all the kingdoms of the world for an act of worship and Jesus said many times,my kingdom is NO part of this world.

Eccl 9:5......New International Version
For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even their name is forgotten.

I most definitely believe in life after death and signs from the after life. Thanks for sharing your story.

So much supernatural happened after my husband died that it would be too much to even try to write but yes I believe.  I am a christian and I dont know how it all fits together but I know several year ago I kept getting the strong impression to call a woman I used to work with - not overly close but we liked each other.  I finally called her & got her answering machine which still had her voice message.  Later in the evening her husband called and informed me she had passed away.  Weird things happened wish I had the space and time to tell all the weird & cool things that happened with my husband.

I most definitely believe. My son who was 8 passed away this year in Jan. I kept praying for him to give me a sign that he was ok (which I knew in my heart he was but it would be nice to "see" something to let me know) and the snow started to fall and I looked out my window and saw 2 heart shapes in my driveway and I knew it was from him telling me he was ok.

What are your thoughts?

I agree with you.  I've had things like this happen to me many times.  I have my own stories to tell.  Here's just one of them.  Back in 1996, I was already living in the great state of Arizona.  My only niece also decided to come to Arizona.  She had a newborn baby boy, my great nephew.  After my niece moved out here, her Mom (my sister) decided she was going to, too.  I believe at this time, my younger sister and her family were living in Delaware.  This left my Mother and brother in NY.  Since most everyone was coming out west, my Mom decided it was time to sell her house and come out this way, too.  She and my brother put the house up for sale and by mid-1997, she had a buyer.

I was talking to my niece on the phone one day about my Mom's move, and all of a sudden I just broke down crying.  I had the most awful feeling of despair and death, I couldn't control it.  My niece couldn't believe it and asked me what was wrong.  I told her.  She told me not to worry, everything was alright and her grandma and uncle would make it to Arizona just fine.  While she calmed me down, I just couldn't lose this feeling that someone was going to die.  That feeling stayed with me for the longest time.

A few months later, my Mom and brother DID make it to Arizona just fine.  They stayed with my oldest sister because she had a big house, and the search began for their own home.  My niece was also living with my sister at the time.  I was bit more relieved since my family made it safely.  When my Mom and brother were living at my sister's home just THREE WEEKS, my NIECE died suddenly.  My brother did everything he could while they waited for emergency services.  She was 27 years old, so yes, I DO believe that someone was trying to tell me because I knew someone was going to die.

I'll go one further.  My daughter was just a couple of years old when my niece passed away.  She had a toy phone that she just loved to play with.  A few days after my niece passed away, I was in the kitchen putting things away and my daughter was talking on her toy phone.  All of a sudden she comes into the kitchen just chatting away!  I stop dead.  I got such chills it was unbelievable, so I ask my daughter "who are you talking to?"  She tells me "I'm talking to Stacy!"  Stacy was my niece.  I asked my daughter "Well, what is she saying?"  My girl says, "She says that she's OK and don't worry about her."  Now, no two-year old actually understands the circumstances of death and that they'll never see this person again, but I sure understood!  It was my niece telling me that I was right and wanting me to know that she was OK.

Do I believe?  Yes, I do.  I've had so many experiences like this, no one can convince me otherwise.  I knew since I was a kid that my father would die before he ever got to retire.  Many years later, he did die just a few months short of retirement.  I knew when family members were hurt in accidents.  I have to say, too, that my Grandmother had this ability and much more, so my family members are believers, too.  It's a gift.  Treasure it.

Wonderful stories! And I am so sorry for everyone's loss. And what are you trying to imply Hitch? A yes or no with a story behind it would have been suffice... lol... I'm catholic and every religion has their own beliefs and perceptions. Every Sunday I recite the Nicene Creed prayer at mass. And in the very last verse it goes something like this "We look forward to the resurrection of the dead, and the LIFE of the WORLD to come, Amen." Everyone perceives it differently but I know there is more to come once we leave our physical body. MissPlayMate...I am so sorry for the passing of your son. My son is also 8 yrs old and I would be devastated as I'm sure you are but I can tell you that your son is safe and is not suffering. He will always be with you and you know in your heart that he sent you that message. Just close your eyes and you can see and smell him. God bless to all. I'm glad I'm not the only one who believes... Lol.

I disagree with this, the DEAD know more than us! Unless you have an open mind about it, you will truly not understand. But that's OK. We will all have the ability one day to communicate with the "Life of the world to come". Have a blessed day! ;)

6 After Solomon observed that the living know that they will die, he wrote: “As for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all.” He then enlarged on that basic truth by saying that the dead can neither love nor hate and that “there is no work nor devising nor knowledge nor wisdom in [the grave].” (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6, 10) Similarly, Psalm 146:4 says that when a man dies, “his  thoughts do perish.” We are mortal and do not survive the death of our body. The life we enjoy is like the flame of a candle. When the flame is put out, it does not go anywhere. It is simply gone.

There are the scriptures.....RIGHT before your eyes in ANY bible.And you disagree??Examples of Adam going back to dust,Lazarus being asleep,Solomon telling us condition of dead.

Do you honestly think a God of love would torment his creature in a fiery hell and NOT let his creation know the truth thru his word???Yet you disagree with it??

So many different opinions here...most going against what bible teaches.Again the decision to decide good from bad as A&E succumbed to.
