There's also the possibility that Jesus, not being in a physical state, appears to you in the Visage you are most comfortable with to ease your transition.

I died on the operation table while having an emergency heart catheter procedure.
I was wide awake during the procedure, talking SEC football with the cardiologist. Then I just seemed to go to sleep. I woke up to hearing the doctor and nurses calling my name frantically. They said my heart stopped for 75 seconds. It was like a fade out and fade in. I was never sedated or given anesthesia.
I didn’t see the tunnel and saw no light. It did change my life - my faith was cemented that day.

However, there are many doctors who claim that NDEs are caused from the drugs administered to those who are dying and / or from the brain activity of someone dying (ie, hallucinations caused by the beginning stages of brain death).
Yeah, I took a ton of shrooms and died once. It was pretty awesome.

Was he like blonde hair/blue eyes American Jesus, or like Jewish looking Jesus? Not being an a-hole here (though it comes.so naturally to me). We grow up with this image of Jesus in our own image, whereas in reality he would have looked different. One would think if it were a hallucination/dream state kind of thing, they would see him in the unrealistic but traiditional image we have of Jesus. Whereas if you meet the real hombre, he’d likely have a more middle-Eatern Jewish look to him.
One was more typical Jesus the other was a black Jesus. But at the same time they said not at all like earthly Jesus, but the most beautiful being ever in a way indescribable through language.
Maybe it’s just whatever is easier for you to process is what you see?
The patient who saw black Jesus is white btw.

Medical emergency internal bleeding.
Had to kiss my wife goodbye and tell her to tell my 6 mo old daughter her daddy loved her and don't forget about me.
They packed me up and sent to Houston.
It was pretty sobering.

I went into sudden cardiac arrest at a work function when I was 29. Didn't have a pulse for 20 minutes total. Would go in and out in about 1 minute cycles. Ended up in a coma for a week, with the first few days being therapeutic hypothermia. Once I woke up, I had to remember how to do things again. I could talk, but could not remember how to do anything else. Took alot of therapies before I was released. You would think surviving would make me the happiest man alive, but alot of why's still burn in the back of my mind at all times.
About a month later, while taking a shower, a memory popped up in my head. I was in a dark room with a man in a white cloak. All I remember him saying was "you still have things to do". Not sure if this was a real memory or not, but it did pop up around the same time everything else started coming back to me
As a result, I hug my family a little tighter, and never hold back an "I love you"

I've had a couple of encounters.
When I was 9 or 10 y.o. I was walking on the edge of the sidewalk and I heard an engine noise behind me. As I was turning my head back wards, it was a Jeep going full speed which was so close I could feel the wind as it passed. Maybe a foot or 2 next to me. I noticed that the jeep was zig zagging. At such an early age I assumed that the driver was drunk.
Fast forward 10 years (early 1990's) and we are fishing at the Florida Keys. We decided to pull over at the side of one large bridge to fish and hang out. The water looked tempting and we jumped in to snorkel. Well it was a stupid decision, those narrow straits have a powerful current. I got distracted snorkeling looking at the bottom of the sea and I was not aware that I was getting dragged to the middle of the strait, several hundred feet away from shore. When I looked out, my friends were far away and did not notice me, but I was starting to panic. I then realized to swim with the flow of the current in a diagonal way. I made it to shore within minutes, and went back to my friends who were about a quarter of a mile away. I thanked God for this, as I knew I was very close to drowning.

Near-death experience:
A near-death experience is a profound personal experience associated with death or impending death which researchers claim share similar characteristics. When positive, such experiences may encompass a variety of sensations including detachment from the body, feelings of levitation, total serenity, security, warmth, the experience of absolute dissolution, and the presence of a light. When negative, such experiences may include sensations of anguish, distress, a void, devastation, and vast emptiness. People often report seeing hellish places and things like their own rendition of "the devil." Explanations for NDEs vary from scientific to religious. Neuroscience research hypothesizes that an NDE is a subjective phenomenon resulting from "disturbed bodily multisensory integration" that occurs during life-threatening events.

Not everyone goes to Heaven. Please consider this and turning to Jesus Christ who loves you and does not want you in Hell.

Death
Noun. 'deth. : the irreversible cessation of all vital functions especially as indicated by permanent stoppage of the heart, respiration, and brain activity.
No one posting in this thread has ever died. Revived dead is an oxymoron.

My father had one in the mid 70s after an accident. He was up in the air around the top of the trees. He could see people trying to revive him.
Best two books I have read on NDEs are Dr Fenwicks, Truth in the Light and Dr Michael Sabom's first book. I personally believe NDEs are authentic and provide glimpses of what we experience at death.
It is interesting that only 5-10% of people declared clinical dead actually experience or remember NDEs. Some believe that all actually experience NDEs but lose the memory of the experience. It is not really known why only some remember the experience.
I find the NDE very convincing as to the existence of God, an afterlife, a meaning and purpose to existence. Although the NDEs themselves often do not have depth of meaning and are vulnerable to subjective interpretations. However acceptance that God and an afterlife exist and there is meaning and purpose can often be the launching point into a deeper search for spiritual meaning and understanding. I personally think God has given us the NDE intentionally because it will lead many of us to him.

Apparently 3 of the 4 gospel authors did too since this tale is only found in John.
