Our Q & A Continues With Peter Arnold, Christian Suspense Thriller Author, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story" ( NEW eBook Debuted, July 2, 2024 )
Heaven's Doorway Press - Q & A ( Part VIII ) with author, Peter Arnold:
Question: Peter, you seem to have a fascination with near-death experiences (NDE), tell us why?
"Hope, faith and love. We are so fortunate in this digital age, to watch and listen to miraculous witnesses, who have spiritually crossed-over to the other side. Many describe experiences in which their consciousness literally popped out of the body (OBE). I have found in my research over and over again, similar characteristics of those who died and returned: 'God is Love.' Just as Saint John, the apostle wrote in his Gospel and epistles. Two of the most profound contemporary NDE witnesses are Dr. Eben Alexander and Dr. Mary C. Neal (click on their names for their classic youTube talks, now seen by millions). Lee Witting also had an NDE in his youth and has been instrumental in IANDS, International Association of Near Death Studies, with chapters all over the world."
Question: In your eBook, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story," your lead protagonist, Michael suffers from "aftereffects" of an near death experience (NDE). What happened to him?
"Michael suffered a terrible tragedy of loss. It's a mystery which slowly in the back story comes to light. He was forever changed by his NDE and as a result, received special lasting empathic and intuitive gifts which aid him during his mystical angelic summons. I thought it would be interesting to explore NDE and OBE in a work of fiction."
Question: Are there any reports of near-death experiences in ancient antiquity?
"Good question! It would be interesting to ponder what did Lazarus experience after Jesus brought him back to life! He was dead for four days! Can you imagine the dinner conversation with Mary, Martha and Lazarus if he spoke about it? I wonder if Saint Paul had any NDEs or OBEs during his apostolic mission? He was shipwrecked, battered and flogged. It has also been discussed in the circles of IANDS, the Greek philosopher, Plato may have had an NDE."
