At the Moment of Death

It is said that at the moment of death we see our whole life pass before our eyes.  That we will see everything that has happened to us since the day we were born.

I think that it is true.  As we stand at the point of death we will be confronted with our first experience with life after death which almost certainly is infinite. We in fact will see God for the first time.

In the context of infinity time does not exist meaning that all things that can happen do.  In physics this is known as the state of singularity.  In quantum mechanics a singularity is said to possess the properties in which all things are simultaneously possible. All calculations in this realm are in the form of probabilities.  Our lives make real those things that were not only probable but in fact happen.  At death our lives are seen in the context of NO TIME; hence that movie in review.

The warning that we can understand in realizing this is that we must be aware of the importance of our opportunities and choices made as we live.  The consequences of our choices are so interdependent with all others living their lives.  Choices, once made, can not be undone.  Our choices impact the opportunities of others, positively and negatively.

Choosing well at each decision point in life ultimately results in having lived well.

My prayer is, "God please be with me at each decision point in my life and help me choose well!"

  1. Check this page on my web site, item [5]. Dick Pregnall wound up with a quantum mechanics or quantum physics angle that he thought could explain another dimension that constitutes the afterlife...all made possible by Jesus; http://www.theeffectivetruth.info/neardeath.html
