According to the scriptures, near-death experiences are not told to bring fame or fortune, they are not told to gather an audience, they are not told to get someone published, and they are definitely not told to raise fear about the future through predictions of impending disaster.
The purpose of near-death experiences, according to scripture, is to testify of the saving and atoning power of Jesus Christ.
Nothing more and nothing less
