People have souls when they die, right? ? ..... If yes, can I be reborn? Is there any experimental proof?

1 history, scientific experiments and analysis

Since ancient times, almost all ethnic groups have believed that people have souls. 100 years ago, science failed to "explain" this eternal problem, and now only one or two of them are known. However, in different historical periods and different countries, there are indeed many records of dying witnesses being rescued and resurrected after many people died. When we study the relevant written records, we will find that ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, ancient India, ancient China and other ethnic groups have recorded the phenomenon of soul out-of-body experience after death. Plato (427-347 BC) and Socrates (Socrates, 470? -399 BC) and other great philosophers of ancient Greece, they all firmly believe that the soul is immortal, and death is the separation of soul and body. They also accumulated extremely valuable examples of souls leaving their shells for future generations. Plato advised people: "my conclusion is that we will run to heaven;" We must obey justice and kindness, because the soul is immortal, and it has both good and evil sides. "four

The research of human beings in scientific experiments can be traced back to 1907, and Dr. Duncan McDougall of the United States may be a pioneer in this research field. He put a dying tuberculosis patient on the balance. After about 3 hours and 40 minutes, the patient's facial expression suddenly disappeared. At that moment, the balance moved, resulting in a loss of 265,438+0.3 grams. This discovery excited him. In the next two and a half years, he did the same experiment on five other patients. Results When these patients died, they dropped 10.6-42.5g respectively. In order to rule out the possibility that the gas exhaled immediately after death can make people lose weight, he chose animal experiments and made a comparison. He did the same research on 15 dogs and found that the dog did not lose weight at the moment of death. This epoch-making research achievement has been shelved for nearly a century since it was published.

In the early 1980s, Japanese scientists did another related research. They not only measured the weight lost immediately after death, but also took pictures of the soul leaving the body immediately after death and rising like a smoke cloud by using today's advanced scientific and technological photographic equipment. In the mid-1980s, Chinese mainland's national medical journals also translated and reprinted this research achievement. However, when we go back to some words of God in the Bible thousands of years ago, compared with this research result, the result is shocking! Please see:

Genesis chapter 2 verse 7

Writing time: BC 1446- 1406.

The Lord God made man from the dust of the ground and breathed life into his nostrils, so he became a living soul, and his name was Adam.

Psalm 78: 39; Paragraph 4 of Article 144

Writing time: 65438 BC+0040-970 BC.

He (God) thinks they are just flesh and blood, a wind that will never return.

144: 4 man seems to breathe, and his days pass like a shadow.

James Chapter 4 Section 14

Writing time: 50 AD.

In fact, you don't know what tomorrow will be like. What is your life? You used to be a cloud, which appeared less and disappeared.

There is a doctor in America. After practicing medicine for forty or fifty years, he devoted himself to the study of death in one of his monographs. The results show: "No matter who he is, he is very painful before he dies; Only when Christians have the precious blood of the Lord Jesus to wash away all debts of his/her conscience can they really know that his/her home is heaven and their home is true and reliable. Some Christians even comforted their families while singing poems and passed away safely. " seven

Dr. Maurice Rollins, a very famous American cardiologist, wrote Death-What's the matter? (Taiwan Province Province: Published by the Publishing Department of the Christian and Olive Culture Foundation, 199 1) "Christianity-The Theory of the Afterlife". Dr. Rollins once thought that people died like lamps. However, because a heart patient died in 1977 and was rescued by him, the patient described his experience after death, which attracted the attention of Dr. Rollins. Since then, he has consciously collected many similar cases. After ruling out the near-death hallucinations caused by drugs and other factors, he found that it was true and reliable for those who were rescued and resurrected after death to describe their experiences of coming out of their shells. The result of this research completely changed his previous ideas. He said: "I have to reconsider my own destiny now. In my opinion, it's a little bad! I found that people really can't die in a daze! " He finally accepted and believed that Jesus Christ was the personal savior and became a new person. He wrote the above works and enthusiastically spread the gospel of God everywhere to testify for the Lord Jesus Christ.

There are also some cases in which clinicians died after being rescued and resurrected. For example, Dr. George G. Ritchie reported the death that happened to him in 1943 (his titles are Nine Minutes of Death and Tomorrow's Return, translated by Chen Jianmin, published by the Sunday School Association of China, and published by the Christian Publishing Department of the Taiwan Province Consortium, 2000). He described the spiritual journey of a soul leaving the body, first taken to heaven by Jesus Christ, and then to hell. People in hell are as emotional and conscious as people on the ground. The difference is that they can no longer do whatever they want. What impressed Dr. Ritchie most was those who committed suicide. They kept repeating a sentence: "Regret! Regret! Regret! ……" 8

Recently, the British "Sunday Telegraph" also reported the research results of Dr. fenwick from the Department of Neuropsychiatry, London Institute of Psychiatry and Dr. Panyr from Southampton Hospital. They ruled out the possible drug effects and hallucinations in the brain under ischemia, and found that the soul does exist after death. Dr fenwick said, "If China people are used to translating spirit into spirit, it is also an idiom. Spirit and brain are independent of each other, which will bring out the question of whether the spirit will continue to exist after death, and will also make people ask whether human beings have souls. Is human existence accidental or has another purpose? " Dr. Panyr said: "If the brain is only the intermediary of the spirit, then we can confirm that the spirit still exists after the brain dies." He also said: he is a skeptic himself, but after reading all the evidence, he began to think that there is something left after death. The report also said that this research report will be published in the authoritative medical journal Recovery on 200 1. nine

Professor Kumek, a very famous cardiologist in the United States, and many scholars who study "life after death" have accumulated thousands of medical records (near-death experiences) of survivors for research. The American best-selling book After Death 1989 published by Heilongjiang Education Press in China has a lot of true records in this respect. 10

An interesting research report is that in 1980, Professor John Robb (19 15- 1996) published a paper: "Is the brain really necessary?" Do people need brains? ), because in the 1960s, he found a student studying at the University of Sheffield in England and was awarded the first-class honorary title. His head is very big. However, Professor Robb found that there was no brain in his skull, only brain water, and only a thin piece of brain cells hung in the middle; He is very clever, and his IQ is 126. He is a gifted math student. Professor Rob later studied 600 similar cases, 95% of which had no brain and only brain water existed in the skull. Half of them have an IQ of more than 100, which is about 100, which is the IQ level of normal people. They don't even know they don't have a brain. 1 1 You can think without your brain, … and still live well. The results of this study strongly confirm that the traditional concept and materialistic view of "life is material" are incorrect, and this study clearly reminds us that there is still immaterial life.

The famous Dr. john eccles is a great physiologist. He made a pioneering study on the synapses of the brain and thought that nerve cells are connected with each other at the synapses, so he won the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine from 65438 to 0963. He believes that everyone has the ability of immaterial thinking and self-understanding during embryonic development or when he is young. This "human soul" (spiritual life) makes us have human characteristics: self-awareness, free thinking, personality, creative expression, love, hate and fear. Our "immaterial self" operates its "contact center", just like a driver driving a car or a programmer manipulating a computer. His greatest assertion is that the "immaterial self" is still alive after the death of the material brain. 12 Dr. eccles wrote the book "Being a Miracle of Man" and came to the conclusion that man has a soul. Someone asked him: If man has not evolved, where did he come from? He said, "If people have souls, they should be created by a divine creator." Later, someone asked him, "Do you think there is a soul after death?" He said: "If only the material part dies, then the non-material part should still exist after death, that is, the human soul still exists." In addition, penfield (189 1- 1976, American) stimulated the motor area of the human brain, and the contralateral limb would move. However, the subject said, "I don't want to move this. You told me to." The man also thought for a moment and said, "This is not what I ordered now, but what you ordered and what you did." This experimental result tells us that besides material life, there are also immaterial life, and they play a leading role. The great scientist Sperry (1913-1981) studied the left and right hemispheres of the brain. The results also show that the brain has an independent causal influence on the use of the left and right hemispheres, which is not caused by environmental reasons. German psychologist Kornhuber's research results also prove that the ability of independent thinking changes the neural activity of the brain, rather than the neural activity of the brain controlling thoughts. Penrosp, a famous brain expert, also said in the research report of 1994: "There must be." (What else is here), probably refers to the human soul. 13

Dr Wernher wernher von braun, the father of American rockets, is not only known as a super scientist, but also a devout Christian. He said: "The laws of matter immortality and energy conservation have been proved. I also believe in the immortality of the soul. " 14

More than 100 years ago, Sister Hu Aihua (Shanghainese, China, 1938) was born in Hongtou Village, Yongjia County, Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province. At the age of 24, my grandfather's eldest brother, who lives in Melbourne, Australia, was seriously ill. At that time, not only the medical conditions were poor, but also the family was poor and had no money to see a doctor. Before long, he fainted. His body was placed on the door panel for the funeral. When he fainted, his soul left his body. He saw a man in white coming to him and said to him, I am a missionary from western countries, and I came to China to preach "Jesus". I'm here to treat you today, and I'll come back tomorrow to take you to heaven. The next day, the Lord Jesus took his soul to heaven; This is a wonderful holiday resort that can't be described in any words. The Lord Jesus himself preached the gospel for him, baptized him in the pool in heaven and taught him to read the Bible. Because heaven is so beautiful, he said to the Lord Jesus, I don't want to go back to earth. But the Lord Jesus said to him, "Go and preach the gospel for me on earth as a witness, and come back when you are seventy-two years old." . The next day, his soul entered his body, and he revived and miraculously recovered. People around him are surprised. He cannot read, but he can recite the Bible. (The author asks Sister Hu carefully and seriously: "Is the Bible he recited the same as the Bible we read today?" She answered in the affirmative: "Yes"), he preached the gospel, and many people in the village believed in the Lord Jesus. When he lived to be 72 years old, he was still very healthy and didn't suffer from any diseases. One day, he called his married daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren home and said to the family, the Lord Jesus is going to take me home. And ordered them to buy food and cook. After dinner, he advised them to believe in Jesus and preach the gospel to save people's souls. After that, he left this world safely and happily and returned to his home in heaven.

2 Mistakes and blind spots in scientific research

According to the research results of Dr. Raymond Moody, Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, Dr. Galicosis, Erlendur Halad, etc., all the people died except those who committed suicide and had a bad near-death experience. 15 According to Dr. Moody's research report, only 0. 3% people have had a hell of an experience. 16 These wonderful experiences are unspeakable happiness, kindness, beauty, tranquility and harmony. Summarizing those countless cases, the result is: death is beautiful; There is no hell, because there is no evil judgment; The Bible is wrong; The occult is beneficial. The information spread by the "light body", "dead relatives and friends" and "angels" in those near-death experiences is completely contrary to the teaching of the creator in the Bible. 17 These people who had near-death experience profoundly changed their later lives, and had the following effects: abandoning the Bible, not preaching human sins, not preaching the salvation of the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ, not preaching the truth of judgment, not preaching God's love, but preaching human self-righteousness; 18 left the Christian church, divorced and abandoned his family; 19 Remove the fear of death and spread the beauty of death; 20 leads to suicide; 2 1 spread and guide occult art, mediums, witchcraft, witchcraft, making friends with ghosts, eastern religions and other forms of spiritualism. 22 [Interested parties are hereby recommended to refer to relevant works. Dr. John Ankberg and Dr. John Weldon consulted and quoted 169 books and periodicals in order to find out this problem. This academic attitude is serious. Facts about Life after Death (translated by Yi Ping, Tiandao Bookstore Co., Ltd.,1April, 999) is a rare masterpiece of their cooperation. ]

However, immediately after his own CPR, Dr. Rollins interviewed these resurrected people to track their near-death experiences. The research results confirm that those terrible experiences that are bad after death abound. Because he clearly noticed that if he didn't recall it immediately, most of the bad experiences would soon be suppressed to the subconscious by the patients. Because these horrible experiences are very disturbing, patients try to expel them from the conscious world as much as possible; So when recalling, only the happy part is left, or everything is forgotten (this is not just a theoretical analysis, but the result of his research). Dr. Rollins finally came to the conclusion that he believed the report of the above researchers was true; Unfortunately, however, other psychologists and psychiatrists, such as Dr. Moody and Dr. Sibelli Ross, have only seen patients who have been rescued by other clinicians, usually a few days or weeks have passed. No wonder Dr. Rollins' research results are quite different from those of the above-mentioned researchers. As far as Dr. Rollins knows, they have never personally saved patients and then made on-site meetings and reports. 23

We can understand and accept some scientific facts, such as the study of weightlessness after death measured by the light speed balance, and the soul shadow photographed by advanced instruments at present. However, behavior, whereabouts and ... no scientific instrument can test the existence of the soul after death. The author thinks that this is the pinnacle of science, and it is also an insurmountable gap for us. However, "near-death experience" can be used as scientific evidence for this study.

We believe that good and bad experiences after death are true. Unless some people play with the words made up by the world with ulterior motives, I believe that such people are very few after all, because death is not an experiment that anyone can casually think about, but a struggle between life and death, not something that can be arbitrary.

Since 1976, books about "near-death experience" have been published in the United States and all over the world. Unfortunately, however, the vast majority of such articles belong to metaphysical experience. The sequelae of this orientation can be said to be very terrible.

After death, apart from the bad experience of the soul, there are two facts about the good experience of the soul: one is the real experience given by the source of goodness, which must be completely consistent with the teaching of God in the Bible. The other can only be the "real" experience given by the source of evil (Satan), that is, this experience is produced under the control and deception of evil spirits. If people don't distinguish under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, they can't identify the mask of evil spirits at all, because it belongs to the spiritual world after all.
