Jesus Is the Resurrection and the Life, A Biblical Response to Near-Death Experiences
Show Summary
In this New Age to Christ devotional, Doreen Virtue examines Jesus’ words in John 11:25, “I am the resurrection and the life,” and contrasts biblical truth with popular near-death experience claims shaped by New Age beliefs. Drawing from her own testimony, she explains why many near-death experience reports contradict one another and ultimately contradict Scripture, and she points listeners back to the gospel of Jesus Christ as the only way to eternal life. This episode calls believers to walk by faith, fix their eyes on Christ,
and trust God’s Word above every competing voice.
