最近有肢體電郵通知我以下來自星架坡World Revival Prayer Fellowship 的一瀕死復生見證(A Near Death Experience)，相關的見證人David是一位失聰弟兄；他在2008年6月15日感到不適而先後2次去到醫院救助，而樟宜總醫院(Changi General Hospital)決定讓他留院觀察，但在翌日﹝16日﹞，他就開始昏迷，並持續了一連3天，院方判斷他的肝已衰竭到無法救治的地步，並囑咐他的太太(Mabel)和家人為他準備身後事，終於，Mabel 和家人在萬不得已下同意院方於18日晚約11pm把David 的氧氣罩拔除，當時醫生說David 大概只能多活48小時！
奇蹟地，David 竟在19日回復神志，身體機能亦神奇地回復正常，連醫生們看了亦嘖嘖稱奇！原來David 在昏迷的3天裏是到了天堂一遊，他在那裏遇見了4批已離世的肢體，包括：
1) 他認識的失聰信心團契(Deaf Faith Fellowship)的Lai弟兄(以前是聾的)，他約在20年前離世。
2) 他教會以前的主任尊尼牧師 (P. Johnny)
3) 他去世的爸爸和姊妹
4) 他的一些離世親友
總括的說，天堂真是好得無比，充滿光明和喜樂！而他亦同時被天使和肢體們提醒，地獄是為了不信和在信心上退後的人(backsliders)預備的；Lai弟兄還叫他回來後向Caroline姊妹傳個訊息，就是他在天堂很好，請她不要掛念﹝原來Caroline姊妹在Lai弟兄離世前常常去探望和服待他，但這是她私下進行的，也沒有告訴別人﹞。
在天堂裏，聾子不要再以手語交通，因為他們的交通與「一般人」無異，主耶穌真是光明之子── 祂的臉光茫無比，David甚至不能看清他的面目，但卻知道祂是主耶穌。David 的爸爸及在主裏離世的親友都鼓勵他要努力走屬主的正路，要忠於父神及不要退後。最後，主耶穌囑咐David要回到地上好好生活，不要亂發脾氣，並要勤讀聖經，又再次提醒他關於生命之書﹝Book of Life﹞的提示，David 之後便回到地上，為自己和別人而活著！讚美真神！

受難節前的一件軼事
今天(19/3/08)，我想起了一件使我獲益良多的往事，它使我不禁自慚形穢，同時卻養成一顆自我反省的心，還引領我默默感謝 天父與及軼事的主角── 一位曾藉此事教訓我，從而接納我的戴弟兄。
當日下午，在一所公廁內，我沿著其狹小的走廊向前走動，準備洗淨雙手。我當時是托着我的公事包的。誰知，我突然聽到在我身後所發出的一陣碰撞聲；我轉頭一看，原來是我肩上的公事包意外地碰跌了後面一名男子手上的物件，使它跌在地上，並一分為二。
我立即向那位男子說道：「不好意思」，並想盡早離開現場了事；當時，他直斥我沒有禮貌待人。我本想以一句「不好意思」來平息事件，但他的譴責使我意識到不能匆匆走開，否則可能引至更大的爭執；他亦要求跟我理論，我遂跟隨他離開洗手間，走向附近的一座花槽。
當我們走到花槽之後，男子把兩片已破碎了的翠玉放在花槽邊上。我才發現，是我自己托着公事包準備離開公廁的時候，一不留神，弄丟了他手上的玉器，使它斷為兩片翠玉。還好，他只是不斷訴說其翠玉如何難以補救，並慨歎不知道怎樣向其長輩和朋友交代。他及後要求我與他共赴一座玉石市場，以便我為他買回玉器作補償。
我心中萬不願意這樣做 — 不知自己屆時會否蒙受欺騙或威嚇呢！所以，我向他表明自己不能跟他到玉器市場。幸好，我靈機一觸：何不付出身上的數張紙幣，作為向他賠償呢？我遂即時抽出身上的記事簿，並把內中夾附的鈔票全數交給了該男子。我更向他表明，自己已經作出應有的賠償，大家應「無拖無欠」了。感謝 主！他隨即展現笑容，向我道謝，還分享他自己的更生見證。
當時充斥着自衛意識和避忌動機的我，立刻感到無地自容。我很慚愧，自己為何看不出他原來只是據理力爭，而最後是真心饒恕我的弟兄呢？我亦意識到自己當初只想藉口頭道歉來逃避責任是不對的。其後我雖向他作出了現金賠償，但我的用心主要還是自保，尚欠缺一個真誠的懺悔！那時，我的心好像溶化了的冰塊一般，我真的慚愧了，真的後悔了。
我自覺地留下來聽他的更生見證，欣賞他娓娓道來的得救經歷。隨後，我特意送上一篇有待完成的稿件給他，作為回應。手稿恰好是以使徒保羅的《哥林多前書》第十章的一句語錄意譯為首的，他看後便和我分享其心中的金句 —《哥林多後書》五章十七至十八節，還有他從教會兄姊中所得到的寶貴支持，使我受益良多。我遂在手稿上寫了自己的名字，還即席以紅筆畫了一顆心形圖送給他，他亦告訴我他是戴弟兄。
最後，戴弟兄與我握手道別。這件軼事給我認真學習如何應對突發的風波，從而明白真心承擔責任的重要性，使我不至養成只知自衛和逃避的心態，我真的感謝戴弟兄的教訓和寬恕。我還有感恩的地方，因為這事使我在反省之餘，還讓我學會不要以貌取人，就算眼前的朋友看來是其貌不揚的，因為 主教導我們要愛人如己和不要偏待他人。

Testimonies of Life after Death
Dr. Howard Storm, a professor of art at Northern Kentucky University, had once technically died but was subsequently revived through his "Near Death Experience" on June 1, 1985 (Saturday) when he was in Paris with his wife, Beverly, and a group of students. While in his hotel room making plans for his last day in the city, Storm collapsed with a pain in his abdomen—so intense that at first the 38-year-old professor thought he must have been shot. He was sent to the nearest emergency room. It was later found that Storm’s duodenum had perforated, flooding his abdominal cavity with burning digestive acids.
Unfortunately, he had to wait more than 10 hours before he received proper attention. When at last he felt death approaching, he whispered a tearful good-bye to his wife who was then by his side, and closed his eyes. The very next thing Storm remembers is he was standing next to his hospital bed, the pain all but gone. Looking more closely at the bed, Storm was dumbfounded to realize that his body was still lying in it. He walked over and spoke to his wife, but she just kept staring straight ahead, completely ignoring him. Then Storm heard voices calling to him from the hallway outside his hospital room. They were pleasant voices, male and female, young and old. Storm felt compelled to follow them.
As he walked down the hospital corridor after them, he saw figures around him. They were vague and indistinct. Gradually, he realized that they were malevolent beings. They approached and began to mock him, to push, to pull and bite at him with long, sharp fingernails and teeth! Storm was a one hundred percent cynic before. But what was happening didn’t allow for disbelief. A voice inside said to him three times, “Pray to God.”And that’s what he did. Ultimately, he yelled, “Jesus, save me!” All of a sudden, a brilliant white light appeared. He felt arms embracing and lifting him. A love more intense than any he’d ever known coursed through him. He felt that he was in the presence of Jesus himself with innumerable angels gathered all around. At last, they told him that it was not his time and he was back in his hospital bed and covered in bandages. According to the doctors, he was operated upon and saved at the last possible moment.

Story 2: “Matthew Botsford – To Hell and Back” by Tim Branson The 700 Club
Matthew and Nancy Botsford worked hard and played even harder. They pursued life with gusto -- except when it came to God. But everything changed on one March night in 1992. Matthew and two sales associates were in Atlanta on business. They had just left a restaurant and had gone outside to catch a taxi, when suddenly 3 of the men arguing behind them pulled out guns and started shooting. One of Matthew’s friends took a bullet to the head and died instantly. The other was unharmed. Matthew was also shot in the head, and he too died.
"Utter blackness. Incredible fear. I went to a place what I believe was hell. It was void of anything good. Beyond anything any words could describe”, recalled Matthew. But a hand came down towards him, and as it did, it brought warmth, flooding the room he was in with a brilliant white light. He was being pulled upwards. He heard a voice say, ‘It’s not your time.’ Mathew was resuscitated on the scene and taken to Piedmont hospital in Atlanta. Nancy flew in from their home state of Michigan and the doctor told her that there’s only a 30% chance Matthew would make it through the night. After that, he’ll probably be in a wheelchair and he might become a vegetable consequently.
Nancy took a walk down a corridor to clear her head and saw a blackness in front of her which was getting bigger and bigger. She was almost lost when she felt a heavy hand on her right shoulder, pulling her back. There was nobody there and she knew it was Jesus. Nancy went straight back to Matt’s room. He’s all wrapped up and bandaged. She said, “Lord, I’m not saved. Bring back my husband even if he’s in a wheel chair.…I promise I’ll stay with him.” Thereafter, Nancy lived hour-to-hour as it seemed that one crisis followed another. But with every crisis came a glimmer of hope.
After 27 days, Matthew awoke from his coma. The left side of Matthew’s body was paralyzed. They returned to Michigan where Matthew started rehab trying to rebuild his body and his mind. For two and half long years Matthew worked through the pain with Nancy by his side. Progress was slow. He eventually left the wheelchair and walked with a cane. Recovering mentally was a much slower process. But Nancy remembered her promise to stay with Matthew through it all. The Botsfords were so focused on Matthew’s regimen that they forgot their experiences with God.Not until they moved to Florida, one day Matthew met a neighbor while out taking a walk and asked for a good church around rather unintentionally. Eventually, they attended an Easter service. The peace, the anchor and the stability in Jesus came back alive to them. Through the years they began to recognize God’s hand in their journey. Today, Matthew walks without the help of a cane and even gets to drive.

David Berkowitz (大衛─巴高域治)
David Berkowitz was one of the most feared killers in New York City in the 1970's. His crimes caused the death of six people and injurys to seven others. He is currently serving a 365 year sentence at the Sullivan Correctional Facility in Fallsburg, New York. The following is an excerpt of his testimony from his official home page.
His criminal case is well known and was called the Son of Sam shootings. It was in 1988 when he was living in a cold and lonely prison cell, that God got hold of his life. David's story began with a TORMENTED CHILDHOOD. He became violent and disruptive. His parents were once ordered by his school to take him to a child psychologist. Unfortunately, the therapy sessions spreading over 2 years' time had no affect on his behavior. During this period of his life, David was also plagued with bouts of severe depression. When this feeling came over him, he would hide under his bed for hours or lock himself in a closet and sit in total darkness from morning until afternoon. Surprisingly, he had a craving for the darkness and he felt an urge to flee away from people.
Occasionally this same evil force would come upon David in the middle of the night. When this would happen he felt an urge to sneak out of the house and wander the dark streets. he roamed the neighborhood like an alley cat and would creep back into the house by climbing the fire escape. Indeed, thoughts of suicide often came into his mind. At times those urges were so strong that his body actually trembled.
In 1975, he met some guys at a party who were heavily involved in a satanic occult. David had always been fascinated with witchcraft, satanism, and occult things since he was a child. He then began to read the Satanic Bible by the late Anton LaVey who founded the Church of Satan in San Francisco in 1966. He also began to practice various occult rituals and incantations.
Eventually he crossed the invisible line of no return. After years of mental torment, behavioral problems, deep inner struggles and his own rebellious ways, he became the criminal. As a result, 6 people lost their lives. Many others suffered at his hands. In 1978, he was sentenced to about 365 consecutive years!
10 years into his prison sentence, feeling despondent and without hope, Rick (another inmate) came up to him one day as he was walking the prison yard on a cold winter’s night. Rick introduced himself to David and told him that Jesus Christ loved him and wanted to forgive him. Miraculously, they became friends. Rick later gave him a Gideon’s Pocket Testament and asked him to read the Psalms.
One night, David was reading Psalm 34. He came upon the 6th verse, which says, "this poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him from all his troubles". It was at that moment in 1987 that he began to pour out his heart to God. Everything seemed to hit him at once. He got down on his knees and began to cry out to Jesus Christ. He told Him that he was sick and tired of doing evil. He asked Jesus to forgive him for all his sins. When he got up it felt as if a very heavy but invisible chain that had been around him for so many years was broken. A peace flooded over him.
He was changed ever since. He even worked as the prison Chaplain’s clerk and had a letter writing ministry subsequently. In addition, the Lord has opened ways for him to share with millions via TV programs such as Inside Edition in 1993 and A & E Investigative Reporter in 1997, what Jesus has done in his life as well as to warn others about the dangers of getting involved in the occult.
THERE IS HOPE FOR YOU TOO
One of his favorite passages of Scripture is Romans 10:13. It says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Here it is clear that God has no favoritism. He rejects no one, but welcomes all who will call upon Him.

生離死有多遠？
「死」到底是甚麼，「死」從何來，「死」往何去。2000年來美國探親，抱著「閒著也是閒著」的心態走進我在國內一直否定的教會，才意外地漸漸從《聖經》中明白了「生」與「死」的真相。原來任何人都不是生與死的主人，這宇宙萬有的創造者——上帝，才是人生冥冥中的主宰。上帝用祂啟示的《聖經》告訴我們：「泥在窰匠的手中怎樣，你們在我的手中也怎樣。」（耶利米書十八6）「你們的生命是甚麼呢？你們原來是一片雲霧，出現少時就不見了。」（雅各書四14）「至於世人，他的年日如草一樣。他發旺如野地的花；經風一吹，便歸無有。」（詩篇一O三15至16）要「承認自己在世上是客旅，是寄居的。」（希伯來書十一13）聖經中這樣的教訓還有很多。
「死」，曾經不是與生俱來，人本可以不死。上帝創造人的始祖亞當和夏娃，住在伊甸園裡，得到應有盡有的供應，在肉身方面有各樣的菜蔬和果子（參創世記一29），在精神方面有配偶作伴和萬物管理權。他們唯一不能吃的是分別善惡樹上的果子，因為「你吃的日子必定死。」（創世記二17）但始祖經不起蛇的煽動和誘惑，偷吃了必死的禁果。於是，人有雙重的死亡：靈性上與上帝隔絕，肉身上必經死亡。我們這些後代，也與上帝隔絕，也有了壽命的限制。最可怕的是，人不是一死百了；人死後，靈魂將墜入上帝為魔鬼所預備的地獄。那裡的蟲是不死的，火是不滅的。
感謝上帝，仍看我們如珍如寶，不忍見我們永死‧‧‧‧

神沒有忘記：Aina to Aggie
1921當年，大衛和斯蔚夫婦（David and Svea Flood），帶著他們兩歲的兒子從瑞典來到非洲的心臟，當時還稱作比屬剛果(Belgian Congo)(今日的Zaire)的地方。他們遇見了同樣來自北歐地區(Scandinavian)的亞偉信夫婦（Ericksons）。他們四人一同尋求神的旨意。那是溫柔、奉獻和犧牲的年代，他們感到主要帶領他們從一個宣教中心出去，將福音傳至邊遠地區。這是在信心裡邁出的巨大一步。
他們來到一個名叫恩道樂拉（N'dolera）的村莊，可是遭到了酋長的斷然拒絕，不准許他們進入他的領地，害怕他們會使到族人他們的神祗。兩對夫婦選擇在半里之外的山坡上蓋起了一間小茅屋。他們為屬靈的突破而祈求，但是卻一無所獲。唯一與他們有接觸的是一個小男孩，他獲准一周兩次賣雞和雞蛋給他們。斯蔚(Svea）心想，既然她只能和這一個非洲人交談，她就要把他領向基督。
與此同時，瘧疾卻將這個小小團體裡的成員一一擊倒。及後，亞偉信一家決定要回到宣教中心去。大衛和斯蔚則決定孤單地繼續留在恩道樂拉（N'dolera）附近，而斯蔚發現她在竟懷了孕，後來生了一個女孩，名為艾娜（Aina)──意思是Forever永遠；若在非洲則解作困難的生產。很可惜，斯蔚因數度患瘧疾而身體虛弱，這次生產更使她耗盡了最後一點精力，使她在女兒出生後只能熬過了17天，便返回天家。
大衛的信心起了驟變，他埋怨 神毀了他的生活！更把新生的嬰兒艾娜（Aina）交給亞偉信夫婦(Ericksons)照顧；他立即帶著兩歲半兒子回國而去，他從此亦拒絕了召他來非洲的 神！後來，亞偉信夫婦二人相繼離世(有說是被當地土人所毒害)，那個女嬰則轉交到某個美國宣教士的家裡，他們把她的瑞典名字改成了「阿吉雅」（Aggie）。[Aggie的希臘字根意思是：Good好]當她三歲時，他們把她帶到了美國。這家美國人深深地喜愛這個小女孩，阿吉雅就是這樣在南達科塔(South Dakota)長大。她曾就讀於明尼阿波利斯的中北聖經學院(North Central Bible College in Minneapolis)，並與杜威•赫斯特（Dewey Hurst)結婚。
直到一天，一份瑞典的宗教雜誌出現在 Aggie 的信箱裡，在她不經意翻閱的時候，突然裡面的一幅照片令她瞠目驚舌：原始的背景、一個十字架、十字架上刻著一個名字——斯蔚•弗拉德(SVEA FLOOD)[就是她過身母親的名字]。結果Aggie幾經努力，前往瑞典，並在那裡找到了已經風蠟殘年的親生父親大衛•弗拉德(David Flood)。阿吉雅和老父的對話是十分懇切和堅決，她撫摸著他的臉，說出當日父母的非洲宣教工作已結出意想不到豐盛的果子，並肯定耶穌愛她的父母，亦從來沒有忘記他們，就這樣，大衛終於重回他棄絕了好幾十年的神那裡；幾個星期之後，大衛便返回天家。
幾年後，赫斯特夫婦到倫敦出席一個大型的福音派聚會。會上一位來自扎伊爾Zaire(前Congo）教會的代表，代表全國11萬受洗的信徒講話，介紹福音是怎樣傳遍整個國家的。原來這人就是斯蔚(Svea Flood)當年帶領信主的小孩！
聖經：
「我實實在在地告訴你們，一粒麥子不落在地裡死了，仍舊是一粒。若是死了，就結出許多子粒來。」(Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.) [約(Jn.)12:24]
流淚撒種的，必歡呼收割！(They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.) [詩 (Ps.) 126:5]

直到一天，一份瑞典的宗教雜誌出現在 Aggie 的信箱裡，在她不經意翻閱的時候，突然裡面的一幅照片令她瞠目驚舌：原始的背景、一個十字架、十字架上刻著一個名字——斯蔚•弗拉德(SVEA FLOOD)[就是她過身母親的名字]。結果Aggie幾經努力，前往瑞典，並在那裡找到了已經風蠟殘年的親生父親大衛•弗拉德(David Flood)。阿吉雅和老父的對話是十分懇切和堅決，她撫摸著他的臉，說出當日父母的非洲宣教工作已結出意想不到豐盛的果子，並肯定耶穌愛她的父母，亦從來沒有忘記他們，就這樣，大衛終於重回他棄絕了好幾十年的神那裡；幾個星期之後，大衛便返回天家。
幾年後，赫斯特夫婦到倫敦出席一個大型的福音派聚會。會上一位來自扎伊爾Zaire(前Congo）教會的代表，代表全國11萬受洗的信徒講話，介紹福音是怎樣傳遍整個國家的。原來這人就是斯蔚(Svea Flood)當年帶領信主的小孩！
聖經：
「我實實在在地告訴你們，一粒麥子不落在地裡死了，仍舊是一粒。若是死了，就結出許多子粒來。」(Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.) [約(Jn.)12:24]
流淚撒種的，必歡呼收割！(They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.) [詩 (Ps.) 126:5]

Mohammed's Testimony (Nigeria)
Talking about miracles nowadays is very different from before. When education and technology "advances", human beings' self esteem and even arrogance pop up with an even greater pace than our accumulation of knowledge. However, one thing remains unchanged: our academic and technological advances cannot quench our desire to search for God and the ultimate purposes of our existence. The following is a touching and genuine story of Mohammed who grew up in a Fulani tribe in Nigeria. He started rearing cattle when he was six years old. He did this for almost 10 years until his father decided to send him to an Arabic school to study the Qur’an (Koran).
Then, he had a nightmare one night. He saw people suffering in his dream and he was beaten by a group of vicious men. He was locked inside a very hot room by them. It was so hot that his flesh began to peel off his body. He woke up as he began screaming and trying to kick the door open. The next night, he had another dream. He came to the same location as in the first and was beaten and taken to the same room again. Suddenly, a man dressed in white appeared and the room became cold and the people who were beating him disappeared! The man stretched his hand out and held Mohammed’s hand, saying, “My son, what are you doing here? Do you want me to take you home?” Within a second Mohammed was back home, and the man dressed in white said to him, "I love you, my son.”
Two weeks later, Mohammed had a third dream. He was in the bush and was in danger. Also, a man dressed in black was urging him to jump over a bottomless pit while a lion was roaring at him. The man in white from his previous dream appeared suddenly, and the threatening man and lion disappeared! Mohammed was brought safely back home another time. For the next six nights, Mohammed had similar dreams.
On the seventh night however, Mohammed had a different dream so that he was sitting under a tree reading books that he couldn’t understand. The man in white came to him and asked Mohammed if he wanted help. This man is Jesus who took a book and said, “This book comes from the Lord and it has the message of God inside of it. In this book, I will show you verses which will help you.” Jesus read scriptures to Mohammed, including John 14:6, which says, “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” He explained this to Mohammed and told him that He was the way and the Savior of the world. Jesus also told him that he would face many trials after becoming a Christian. Jesus subsequently asked him if he wanted to accept His Salvation. Mohammed said yes and Jesus disappeared.
The story continued and Mohammed was led to Christ ultimately. He then told his parents that he had become a Christian. Nevertheless, Mohammed’s father forced him to drink poison after the hope to keep him as a Muslim vanished. Mohammed prayed to Jesus for help and swallowed the poison. The next morning, to his father’s dismay, Mohammed was still alive. Later, his family tried to kill him by shooting him with a poisoned arrow. He was saved again by a passing-by hunter who took him to a hospital for treatment.
After all these events, his family tried to persuade him to leave Christianity by offering him one hundred cows and told him he could have three wives if he were to abandon the Christian faith. Eventually, Mohammed made his choice – but it was to leave his family since he was determined to follow Christ with His promise of eternal life which his father could never offer.
Praise the Lord, his father a few years later while on his deathbed, asked Mohammed for forgiveness and said he was ready to receive Jesus as his Savior, too. Mohammed led his father in the sinner’s prayer and three hours later, his father passed away.

從死裡復活的和尚 (Paulu of Myanmar- Back from the dead)
在這裏所提到的緬懷和尚死而復活的故事，是翻譯自一個經歷生命完全改觀之人的錄音見證。這不是一個訪談記錄，也不是一份傳記，而是完全根據這個人自己的談話。不知你聽到個故事時，會有何反應？你可能會得著啟發、鼓舞；你或許會有點懷疑。
從現今人文學術的角度，這個故事的內容無可否認地是十分神奇！但這個故事是經由一些緬甸教會領袖的分享而得知的。你或許有興趣知道在2000年有一位台灣台中縣豐原市的傳道人許永生弟兄，他曾親自前往緬甸查訪這位復活的和尚，當地人也是告訴他確有其人和其事，只是這位「復活的保羅」已經下落不明。另外，位在美國，專門替網友調查異聞、奇事的「真相大白」網站（Truth or Fiction），在經過一番調查後，也在網頁上說到故事中的人物確實存在，只是不能證實他是否真曾從死裡復活過來﹝特別是當中的靈異經歷，本質上是無法用科學的方法驗證，只能憑個人的主觀，決定相信與否)。
故事主人翁名叫阿瑟．皮安．欣邵．保羅（Athet Pyan Shinthaw Paulu，下稱緬甸保羅）是個緬甸人。他1958年出生在緬甸南部的伊洛瓦底江(Irrawaddy)三角洲的伯格勒城(Bogale)。父母是虔誠的佛教徒，他們給他取名叫地平(Thitpin，樹也)。他十三歲時就離開了學校，成為漁夫，直到他十八歲時被送到一所佛教僧院出家當和尚。當他十九歲時（1977年）便成為一個正式的僧侶，法號名叫做烏．那塔．潘尼塔．阿欣特利亞(U Nata Pannita Ashinthuriya)。他的僧院名叫曼德勒．凱卡山．凱欣(Mandalay Kyaikasan Kyaing)，他的師傅名叫烏．撒帝拉．凱爾．尼．岡．沙亞道(U Zadila Kyar Ni Kan Sayadaw)，烏．撒帝拉是他的頭銜，他在緬甸很受尊崇。
緬甸保羅竭盡所能的試著努力成為高僧，同時遵守所有的佛教戒律。他後來患了非常嚴重的疾病，醫生說他同時患有黃熱病和瘧疾。他的情況越來越糟，連醫生也說已經沒有痊瘉的希望，他終於因病陷入昏迷，並且死了三天！雖然肉體死了，但他的心靈和精神卻是十分靈敏的，當時他感覺自己在一個非常強大的暴風雨中，一陣強風摧毀了整片土地，直到沒有任何樹木或其他東西存留著，只剩下一大片平坦的曠野。他沿著這個曠野非常快速地走了一段時間，後來我橫越過一條河，在河的對岸，看見了一個非常非常可怕的火湖。
起初他不知道那就是地獄，直到他看見了閻王(yama)──牠的臉和身體看起來像一隻獅子，但牠的腿長得很像大蛇，牠的頭上長了許多隻角，牠的面目非常兇惡。緬甸保羅極其害怕！「閻王」當時要他看那個火湖，他看見很多穿著橙黃色僧袍的緬甸和尚，當中竟然包括他的師傅沙亞道(Sayadaw)，另外，他又看見佛祖釋迦牟尼也在地獄裡，還有緬甸的革命領袖昻山將軍，這使他感到非常錯愕和混亂！他想知道究竟，就向閻王發問。閻王的回答都基本指出這是因為他們並沒有接受耶穌基督或信靠真神。
信不信由你，緬甸保羅還看見舊約中的歌利亞(Goliath）在地獄中受苦。那時，他對聖經是全不知情的！後來，他遇到另外一位地獄使者，牠的頭上有十隻角，手中拿著一把在尾端有七支利刃的矛。這使者告訴他必須從原來的路離開。他便離開，約有三個小時之久，終於來到了一條寬闊的道路，並來到一個岔路口：通向左邊的是一條寬廣的路，通向右邊的則是一條窄小的路。在岔路口上有一塊路標寫著，通往左邊的路是為不相信耶穌基督的人所預備的；而右邊則是為相信耶穌基督的人所預備的。
緬甸保羅很關切那條較寬大的路將通向何處，所以就開始朝那個方向走去，他發現有兩個人走在他的前面，只是他總是趕不上他們，於是他就掉頭回到岔路口上。他當時仍舊可以看到那兩個人越走越遠，當他們到達路的盡頭時，突然發出極痛苦的慘叫聲，他意識到那條較寬大的路是非常危險的。
於是，緬甸保羅開始走向那條為基督徒預備的路，走了大約一個小時之後，竟然變成了純金的路面，它是那麼地純淨，以致當我往下看的時候，可以完全清楚看到自己的倒影。然後他看見一個人，他穿著白色的長袍。他同時也聽到非常美好的歌聲！穿白長袍的原來是彼得(Peter)，彼得後來要他回到地球上為他所看見的事作見證，彼得還說：「你必須以新的名字去傳揚福音，從現在開始你的名字叫做阿瑟．皮安．欣邵．保羅（Athet Pyan Shinthaw Paulu，意思是從死裡復活的保羅）。結果緬甸保羅終於復活了，他也努力為主耶穌基督作見證和傳福音。

鴨都拉曼 (Abdulrahman) 的見證
Khaled Abdulrahman(鴨都拉曼)生長於伊克，本是一個虔誠的信尼派﹝Sunnis﹞回教徒，他甚至是回教第四代領袖阿里﹝Ali Ibn Abi Talib﹞的後人，年紀輕的鴨都拉曼已經在他所屬的回教寺中承擔很多教職，他也立志日後要成為一位回教教長(Imam)。他後來因接觸到回教一個分離教派﹝馬達西拉：Mutazilah﹞而開始思想回教與異教之別，後來還努力向他朋友中的基督徒傳揚回教，亦因此而認識了一位牧師，透過牧師的指導，他對基督教的認識可說是開了竅。不過，他仍未能接受耶穌作為至高神的兒子和救主的事實。
不久，他發了個異夢，他夢見有一位留著鬍鬚的男子來問他說：「你為何攻擊我的羊群呢？」鴨都拉曼卻回問：「先生，請問您是誰？」那人便對他說：「我是耶穌基督。」於是，鴨都拉曼便說：「先生，我不是要攻擊您的羊兒，我乃是要領他們回正路。」耶穌對他說：「你才是走迷了的人，我就是那正路。」鴨都拉曼從夢中醒來，他真的被這夢弄得糊裡糊塗，後來他更索性離開了回教和基督教，甚麼教也不相信。
正在這時，他的父親在一次交通「意外」中死了，他父親是個高官，留下一大筆遺產給他，讓鴨都拉曼可以過著奢華和荒唐的生活。過了一段時間後，鴨都拉曼再次在夢中聽到耶穌的聲音說：「你立即要離開你的國家！」他覺得那聲音十分真確，於是執拾了行李，並趕緊坐飛機到她母親的祖國去了﹝另外一個阿拉伯國家﹞，在抵步後，他便給家中的母親致電，那時他母親在電話中吩咐他千萬不要返回伊拉克，因為政府懷疑他的爸爸偷了軍事機密，早前他的爸爸其實不是死於意外，而是被謀殺了。
如今伊政府也懷疑鴨都拉曼是同謀，所以要捸捕他，這事發生於1990年伊拉克侵吞科威特之前。鴨都拉曼被所發生的事弄得更糊塗，那夜他基本上是昏了過去，很奇妙地，耶穌又在夢中向他說話：「我愛你，為何你不願愛我呢？來跟從我吧，因為我有一個計劃給你。」終於，鴨都拉曼決志相信了耶穌，欲知後事如何，請瀏覽聖經與可蘭經網站。。

黃振華浪子回頭的見證
《談天說道》2007年4月11日福音專輯記載了黃振華的見證，他是六十年代出生的港人，曾任職理髮師，因有很多「無聊」時間，便跟同事們飲咳水、食大麻去打發，後來因為空虛吸毒，弄至他第一任太太捨他而去。他因毒品及行劫等罪十多年來進出監獄20多次，後來在獄中悔改，於2000年受浸歸主，出獄後服務於一所戒毒者的教會宿舍，任同工至 2006 年，當中又認識了由英國來港去體驗服侍戒毒人士的現任太太，他們2007 年初結婚，黃弟兄亦因而進入他人生的一個新階段。
黃弟兄分享指出，心裡虛空使他吸毒來麻醉自己，結果染上毒癖，弄到要搶劫和加入黑社會，喪失前途之餘，又失了親情！幸好他在獄中遇到一個福利官，不時跟他「講耶穌」，又介紹一間教會讓他出獄後可以暫住，接受有監督的戒毒生活。1997年，他出獄就去了那間教會。可是，他當時沒有真心悔改，所以住了六個月左右，便以為自己已戒掉「白粉」，決定離開教會。這一決定，終於令黃弟兄流落街頭！
然而，教會外展同工卻不離不棄地去找他和給他衣服食物，並在一個球場裏找著他，這使他心裡開始軟化，但他還是再因毒品去搶劫，事敗入獄。因為教友的愛，他在獄中主動去讀聖經，而且還邊讀邊流淚。上帝讓他想起 祂藉教友給他的愛與關懷，他大受感動，便放聲痛哭，又跪地向上帝祈禱：「我很想改變」。就是這樣，他的新生命開啟了，正如聖經說：「若有人在基督裡，他就是新造的人，舊事已過去，都變成新的了！」〈林後5:17〉欲知黃弟兄的近況，請看：《談天說道》福音專輯

Testimony OF JOEL HOVEY
Born in 1970, Joey was first told that he needed to be saved otherwise he would suffer the judgment of God for his sins in the lake of fire for all eternity when he was four. What had struck fear into his young heart most of all was the thought of being separated from his parents when Jesus would come again. He began to have nightmares that his parents were whisked away and he was left alone.
Failing to grasp the central theme of justification by faith in God’s salvation, Joey was living with fear and doubt throughout his teens. More unfortunately, he had come to the point where he tried to push thoughts of God out of his mind when he reached 18. He joined the Navy after his high school graduation. It seemed that all his cares and fears were left far behind as he traveled overseas thousands of miles away from home. He had new friends and plenty of adventure to keep him occupied. He would hung out with the guys, get drunk and do whatever it took to have fun.
After finishing four years of active service, he was far from the former soul-searching child he had once been. His attitude, language, and appetite for fun had all changed dramatically because of drug addiction. By turning 27, he could no longer imagine a future for himself. He even felt that he would die young. Gradually, those who knew him were afraid to be around him. He was controlled by his addiction. On 16th November 1997, he was lying on a dirty carpet because he had overdosed himself with drugs the night before. He started to contemplate his own life ending. Nevertheless, his thoughts were arrested by the question – “Am I saved?” He could not ignore the fear that was beginning to well up deep within his soul: “Where will I be one moment after death?” His heart began to pound as he realized for him it could only be hell.
Joel cried out to God, “God, please save me!” John 3:16 recaptured his heart: “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him, should not perish but have everlasting life.” There it was – Forgiveness and total acceptance in Jesus! He made a decision right away to believe in the Son. He knew from that moment on that he was truly saved. He was a truly happy and changed man when he got up off the floor. From that day onward, he has not touched drugs again. God gave him a true delivery!

天堂九十分鐘
中信月刊2007年3月號記載了潘東（Don Piper）牧師的一個神奇和艱難的經歷,他是美國德州浸信會教會的牧師。1989年一月參加一個浸信會的會議，會後吃過「早午餐」，約早上11時離開，不料途中車子被一輛大卡車所撞，車毀人亡。救護人員宣佈潘牧師當場斃命！那年他39歲。
想不到九十分鐘以後，他竟然活了過來。事後追憶，他在死去的九十分鐘曾去天堂走了一遭。
他被送進醫院時，傷得不成人形，骨頭破碎，眼、耳、鼻溢血。在他,奇蹟地甦醒後，渾身劇痛，需要不停打嗎啡止痛。頭一個手術，一動就動了十一小時。 車禍後十一個半月，他仍需要用大劑量嗎啡止痛，晚上無法入睡。之後一共做了卅四次手術，身心靈飽受折磨。
重傷後，他早已不戀棧人世。想到自己康復渺茫，將來極可能終身殘廢，無法再做聖工，心裡沮喪到極點。兩年之後，情緒依然抑鬱。他不明白，為何上帝領他看見天堂美景，卻讓他回到人間受苦。
幸而他獲得好友、牧師鼓勵，漸漸重拾信心，深信萬事都有上帝美意。果然，他的經歷後來鼓勵了很多傷心失望的人，叫他們重新得力。他又把他的經歷寫成一書《天上探訪九十分鐘》（90 Minutes in Heaven by Don Piper with Cecil Murphy, REVELL Publishers），至今已發行逾百萬冊。

周奇燕弟兄的見證
美國有位周奇燕弟兄，信主前愛錢如命，相信金錢萬能，以為只要有錢，就有一切，有快樂，有安全。所以他拼命工作，儲夠了錢，就買房屋，後來更開始做生意。他的人生一直被貪念牽著走，弄到每天早起遲歸﹝4a.m. -9p.m.﹞，一星期工作七天，完全沒有時間和家人交心。
好景不常，一九九○年美國發生金融風暴，經濟衰退。他的生意一落千丈。終於到了九三年，無奈結業，欠下一身債務。夫妻二人常為此反目吵架。一九九五年初，更因婚變而家庭破碎。自此，他經常一個人在街上遊蕩，並借酒澆愁，因為害怕回家獨對四壁，空虛無奈！
事實上，他很愛兩個女兒，卻得不到她們的諒解。因為他忽略了和她們一起成長，忽略了和她們培養感情。原來他的人生觀使他並不知道怎樣去愛，也不知道怎樣自愛。此時的他，開始求神拜佛，占卜算命，看風水，希望找出一線生機，重新拾回失去的一切。可惜，虛空的偶像幫不了他，他依舊寂寞徬徨，不知活著是為了甚麼。後來，一個偶然的機會下，一個基督徒朋友告訴他耶穌是世人的救主。
此後一個早晨，在上班途中，他誠懇地向上帝說：「主啊，如果祢是那位我一直尋找的神，為甚麼祢不再來人間，領我們重回祢的身邊？我們好像迷羊，到處亂走，…我們多麼失落徬徨啊！」說著，不禁失聲痛哭。那時，他心中感到莫名的安慰，就好像一個迷了路的小孩，看見父母來了，擁著父母痛哭。就是這一剎那改變了周奇燕的生命，令他人生重燃盼望和平安。(如要更多了解周弟兄的經歷，請到中信網頁瀏覽:)

Testimony of Father Maximilian Kolbe
The death camp Auschwitz-Birkenau became the killing centre during WWII where the largest numbers of European Jews were murdered by the Nazis. Extermination was conducted on an industrial scale with some estimates running as high as three million persons killed here through gassing, starvation, disease, shooting and burning.
One Christian man who died here became a martyr to the truth of evils of Nazism - a true hero for our time, a saint who lived what he preached, total love toward God and man. Maximilian Kolbe was a Polish priest who died as prisoner 16770 in Auschwitz-Birkenau, August 14, 1941. When a prisoner escaped from the camp, the Nazis selected 10 others to be killed by starvation in reprisal for the escape. One of the 10 selected to die, Franciszek Gajowniczek, began to cry: "My wife! My children! I will never see them again!" At this juncture, Maximilian stepped forward and asked to die in his place. His request was granted .... You can read his full story at the Jewish vitual library.
在二次大戰時位於現在波蘭奧斯維治集中營﹝Auschwitz-Birkenau﹞發生了一件可歌可泣的事情，就是德國納粹軍人對猶太人進行殘酷的殘殺，當時德軍規定每逢有一個猶太囚犯跑掉時，德軍便會在集中營裏找10個其他囚犯出來處決，以阻嚇其他囚犯逃走。
高比神父﹝Maximilian Kolbe﹞就是當時猶太囚犯之一，他於1941年8月14日因為挺身代替另外一位不幸被德軍選中的猶太囚友加作尼斯先生﹝Gajowniczek﹞成為代罪羔羊而犧牲了自己的性命，如果你想詳細了解他的故事，可瀏覽猶太網上圖書館﹝英文﹞。

法利爾上尉 (Captain Ferrier) 的見證
最近收到由CBMC黃文謙弟兄的週一嗎哪，從中知道一個很感人的見證，就是關於法利爾上尉在一次航空展上演出極高難度的花式時，飛機的操作桿突然失靈，正要衝向一棟平房，他為了讓屋子裏的人倖免於難，把自己擺第三位，最終犧牲了自己的性命！實在是基督生命的一個極美好的見證。如欲知詳情，請瀏覽CMBC中英文週一嗎哪 (10-07-06)一看。
Captain Ferrier was flying with three other planes when they began a difficult maneuver at an air show. As he pointed his jet toward the ground, his control stick jammed and a house was directly in the path of the jet’s descent. However, he somehow succeeded in jerking the stick free and avoid crashing into the house. Unfortunately, the aircraft was already so low that it crashed on the other side of the house. Ferrier thus saved the lives of the residents inside the house by sacrificing his own. Please visit the CMBC website and look for Monday Manna of 10-07-06 for the full story.

陳道明牧師的見證
陳道明牧師現為美國加州山景城中國基督教會牧師。中信530期中伯公仔變耶穌仔一文提到陳牧師的感人見證，很典型地告訴我們主耶穌的救恩如何臨到一位本來出生在廟裡，從小便給父親獻給廟裡的神祇做乾兒子的人。
陳牧師起初對基督教有很深的成見和誤解，直至有一天，他們居住的廟堂隔壁的房子發生火警，他親眼看見父親拿了一把椅子，一張桌子，把椅子擺在桌子上，又在椅子上放上小椅子，再站上去把神像從神龕裡抱到安全的地方；那時，他從心中發出了一個認真的提問：「爸爸所拜的是不是真的神？若是真的神，怎麼需要我爸爸把它抱走，才免於被火燒掉？」
陳牧師十六歲開始思想人死後的問題，卻沒有答案。後來為了要逃避死亡陰影的干擾，他以看電影來麻醉自己，結果因最崇拜的影后林黛自殺死了，還有其他的電影明星也相繼自殺死了。他再一次被死亡的問題所困擾！

Dr. Richard Eby's Visit to Heaven
伊比醫生（Dr. Richard E. Eby）在1972年7月16日，曾因搬物不慎而從二樓陽台跌下，並經歷了瀕死經驗，窺視天堂情景。他離開肉身後，被主接到樂園裏，又發現自己有個彷似半透明的身子。他喜歡那個身子，當時他穿著潔白的長袍，又看到背後燦爛的白花。
他環顧四週，看見自己身處極美麗的山谷。兩旁的樹木蒼翠繁茂，相映成趣，一看就知道不是人間美色。他能看見每一片葉子、每一條枝子，不見一片殘葉。這裡沒有死亡！那裡的光亮教人神往 ─ 卻無影子。不像地上有一個光源。他發覺每樣東西，都像能產生光輝。當他驚嘆之際，立時有答案臨到：「諸天述說上帝的榮耀；你不知尊貴、榮耀、權能都屬於祂嗎？祂是世界之光！」…
您想多了解伊比醫生的故事嗎？請擊入中信529期天堂情景知多少？願主透過伊比醫生的見證幫助您，阿們。
A Physician's Amazing Account of Being Caught Up Into Paradise
Dr. Richard E. Eby was well known in his profession as a certified obstetrician and gynecologist who came to California in 1933 to study and later to teach at the College of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons. Dr. Eby served as President of the Kansas City College of Osteopathy and Surgery and the American College of Osteopathic Obstetricians and Gynecologists. He was co-founder of the Park Avenue Hospital in Pomona and of the former California Osteopathic Hospital Association. He also served as Executive Assistant of the American Osteopathic Association in Chicago, and Professor of Obstetrics at the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine. Dr. Eby was the charter President of the Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons of California in 1961.
Together with his wife, Maybelle, he had been active in Christian work for over 40 years. In 1972, a two-story fall on his head permitted God to show him a glimpse of Paradise. If you want to hear his own testimony, you may click onto the following link: Dr. Richard Eby's Near Death Experience.
May God bless you and enlighten you with Dr. Eby's testimony. Amen.
