Patrick - HAMBURG
Twenty-four years ago, I walked three and a half miles along Canwood Street in Agoura Hills, California, after finishing work at my automotive service location. According to the Sheriff’s department, first responders and what I learned was an uninsured motorist was seeding and struck me as I walked along that road.
I remember nothing from six months before and two years after the incident. My body was in an intense coma at UCLA Medical Center’s Brain Trauma Unit in Los Angeles, California.
During that time, I remember being with the Lord for over 20,000 years. Refer to 2 Peter 3:8. The Lord and I had a lot to talk about, and I laid it out to Him. There is a lot to say about this; however, in the 24 years since, every Pastor I’ve told this to has either avoided me, never talked to me again, or had security watching me everywhere I was in the Church.
Now, how Satan works is this: Satan knows, Jesus knows, and I know the Lord, and I spent this time together with Him. Satan has influenced people worldwide to abandon me completely, everyone except four people who will talk, answer emails, text messages, or return a voicemail. I expect this to get lost as Satan works well; I know since I’ve emailed Jack Hibbs without a reply. I got to this website halfway through watching a Jack Hibbs “Happening Now with Pastor Jack and Barry Meguiar.” I’ve sent emails to numerous locations only to be abandoned or blocked. I’ve listened to/watched and podcasted almost every Jack Hibbs program since he is the one to go to for the real thing.
No further, I know I’ve wasted my time again.
Did you ever consider that your story doesn’t line up with anything scriptural? We are called to test everything, hold on to the good, and let go of the bad. At face value I would dismiss your story as comatose fever dream.
It seems like you’re more concerned with people believing your story rather than trying to use your story to encourage others. Let people decide for themselves whether to accept it or not rather than playing the victim.
I’m not surprised. This confirms that there is nowhere this can be posted without less-than-acceptable replies. Thank you. I’ll do my best to remove it so I won’t bother the holier-than-thou people like you.
Regards
“To be apart from the body, is to be present with the Lord”
2 Peter 3:8
8 But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
God’s timing and our perception of time is different. He also says His ways are different than our ways and we can’t understand or fathom how things work. That doesn’t mean He can’t show us.
As a nurse, I believe God is with those who need Him and especially those who call on Him. I believe He is close to the disabled. I have been a pediatric nurse with disabled children and have had children tell me He is with them and that He speaks to them. I believe He is close to the broken hearted and always near those close to death. Crossing from this world into the next is nothing small. He is not a cruel God that just randomly creates and forgets… and He created each one of us. He doesn’t just abandon us in our times of need.
I became a nurse after my near death experience in my twenties. following this incident and rededicating my life to Him, God told me I was going to be a missionary and a nurse and He started laying the bricks into place. I am now both.
About 16 years ago I was giving birth to my 3rd child. I was given the epidural and had a severe reaction to it that dropped my blood pressure so low that I “coded”. I remember telling my nurse I was freezing and watching my blood pressure plummet. I knew the situation was getting bad VERY quickly. I saw her hit the code button at some point and she begged me not to close my eyes. I was so tired and couldn’t help it. I knew what was happening and became afraid and knew this could be my last prayer. As I fought to stay awake I asked God to BE WITH ME and to forgive me for my sins. I asked him to take care of my children and then I accepted what was happening. My fear was gone. Everything went to darkness and then I was aware that I was with God. He was with me and I knew He was MY Creator. No question who He was. Everything I had ever known became obsolete and I just existed WITH Him. He made me feel as if it was only Him and I. In those moments I felt whole, I felt the love He had for me, complete, I wanted for NOTHING, and felt the most profound peace and love that it’s indescribable and there are no words. I started to forget this world and wanted nothing more than to be with Him even if it was just in that darkness for eternity. Then He showed me my kids faces to remind me, and then I knew they still needed me and I said “okay.” The one word I woke up with was “love”. That is why we are here is to show love to others and to love Him.
I awoke to what felt like was a horse galloping on my chest and with the code team in my room. My anesthesiologist told me I took her whole supply of meds and I watched as she ran out of the room to pharmacy.She later told me that had never happened to her before and she had never had to give that much medication. She had said I just wouldn’t wake up and I believe I told her “I didn’t want to”. My poor nurse on my right looked like she had just fought a battle. I have no idea how long I was actually out for but when I was with God it was as if time didn’t exist.
Going through this was a gift and ultimately it took my fears of death away. I was later able to be a hospice nurse as a privilege knowing where people were going and that this is not our home. Trying not to be envious that they’re going home and I’m not yet…lol… I feel honored to make sure people know about Jesus in their last moments and that He is waiting for them, and not to fear. And I could say it with 100% confidence. Zero doubt. Because THAT experience that God gave me was more real than anything I’ve ever experienced here. The clarity was unreal. I use this “knowing” to go out into the world and preach the gospel. I am naturally a very shy person and an introvert. But the gospel is so important to get out there that I go. I go to 3rd world countries on missions and tell people about how much God loves them, and how absolutely real He is, and that He IS our Creator and loves us so much that He took on the sins of the world to save us so we can be cleansed on not be separated from us.
When I feel the nudge to share my NDE story, I do. it took me a long time to be brave about sharing it because there are going to be so many people that just don’t believe and wonder if you’re crazy. I don’t care anymore because my obedience to Him is what I account for. I will stand before Him in the end and not all of those people. Who am I to know what they need to hear in those moments? God has showed me in certain moments that some people NEED to hear what I experienced and that it didn’t just happen for me. It is to share when needed but I do use discernment. God uses what I went through for His glory. They can see the light in my eyes when I tell them about how LOVING our God is and that He IS with us and hears us. He’s real. I always pray that they see Jesus’ light shining through me and not myself. I want HIM to get the glory because it all needs to point to Him. My whole life since my experience has been about pointing people to Jesus and telling them what He did for us because He loves us THAT much! So NO ONE can convince me that it wasn’t real. The proof is in the pudding. My life has never been the same and I now live to serve His plan. Satan tries to take it from me often, and I tell him to get behind me and ask God to get him out of my head. God reminds me that what I am doing for Him makes Satan mad and so I need to stayed armored up.
I’ve seen God show up in profound ways, in spiritual ways that many people later discount as Him because other people can talk them out of “their” reality based on their own experiences or lack of. Remember Satan is a liar and the father of lies. He comes to steal, kill and destroy and he will do anything to distort what is good and holy and anything amazing that POINTS to God. Satan’s time is short. He’s worse than ever. Focus on God and being obedient and using everything He’s blessed you with for His glory and the Kingdom. We have work to do.Love people even when they don’t understand.
It’s not true that there is nothing in the Bible about your story. There are so many stories where God shows up. Miracles still happen. I will never understand why Believers believe the Bible with their head but not their heart. Many people who believe in the Bible have a hard time believing in miracles today. God is the same God today as He was yesterday and will be the same tomorrow. He is never changing and I thank Him so much that He keeps His Word!
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter who believes you, only God, and He will let you know who needs to hear your testimony. But you and God know the truth and God may put someone in front of you that needs to hear your story. Do everything out of love and for God. There are going to be many who are skeptical because they just haven’t experienced anything like that. God is spiritual and we have a spiritual world around us and waiting FOR us. Like I said, THIS is not our home. That’s a hard thing for people to wrap their minds around.
I grew up as a preacher’s kid. I never remember not believing in Jesus. I grew up and always turned to God when I needed Him but never had my calling at the forefront of my life until I had this experience. It was hard for me to understand who God was before this. And honestly sometimes in my darkest moments, I questioned if He was real. This experience I had was pivotal in my life and completely changed everything in those moments. It was a gift. And no one can take it from me.
Being in this demon filled hateful world is hard knowing what awaits for me in eternity, but I was given a mission and my time here is not over.As Christians we are all called to share the good news. We need to gather the Kingdom with an urgency. We are to love people so much because God loves them. He is a patient loving God. He hurts when people don’t believe in Him or when they turn their back on Him. He doesn’t want to be separated from them. Time is short.
As for Jack Hibbs, Godbuses him in big ways and he is a busy man who is serving God. Preachers are pulled is SO many different directions while still trying to be a husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, and personal friend…all while keeping close to God in their own personal relationship which comes FIRST. It’s impossible for him to answer everyone that tries to get to him. He’s on platforms all over the world. Being understanding is important and not jumping to conclusions. Really you have no clue what others are truly thinking. That’s another way Satan tries to get in our head. Just focus on listening to God and letting Him use you for the Kingdom. I tell myself all the time it’s none of my business what people think of me and then tell myself I don’t care anyway. The only one you need to focus on pleasing is God, and then the rest falls into place.
I pray God blesses and uses you greatly. I share all this with great love and pray it helps you in some way.
Hello, Kelli,

You’ve shared an incredible, heartwarming story.
“Satan tries to take it from me often, and I tell him to get behind me and ask God to get him out of my head.”
Yes, he does, and I quickly recognize his attempts and toss him out of my thought process.
“God reminds me that what I am doing for Him makes Satan mad and so I need to stayed armored up.”
Yes, He does. However, Satan has power over everyone I come in contact with when spreading this information, either in person or in a church setting.
I went to a church last week. In the area, before entry into the sanctuary, there is coffee and other church information for new people just arriving for the first time, among other things.
In that area, before the sermon started, I shared my experience with the Lord with what appeared to be church staff. I knew right there that this wasn’t going to turn out well.
The service started, and the Pastor was excellent. He taught the Bible much like Hibbs does. He also said that, at one point, God lived outside of time. I then knew I was there and knew what else the Pastor would say that met my experience.
When the service ended, I went into the coffee area, had coffee, looked around, and talked to an older man for a while.
I got up, filled my coffee, and was approached by security. Security said my movements had made security suspicious.
Right then, I knew Satan had entered the building, and I was THE man not to leave out of anyone’s site. I was so disturbed that I expected Law Enforcement to wait outside to question me. As that turned out, I escaped home without incident.
I wrote to the church that day and I’ll paste it here. It’s been over a week without a reply, though I don’t expect one since Satan cannot answer to truth.
“It didn’t take long before Satan overtook the Church after sharing my experience of being with the Lord when in a Coma for months. Security advised me I was suspicious after remaining in the coffee serving area, talking to an older man, and exploring what your Church had to offer. Your Church isn’t the first one to have me singled out; two in Southern California and two in Western New York.
I can assure you that the Lord has a church that Satan can’t/won’t get to before I can share my experience. I heard so many things in today’s sermon that I experienced, like “outside of time.” You have no idea what that’s like, and you never will since I’ll never return.
Note: My name and phone number aren’t associated with me, but my email address is, though that link will take you nowhere.

Patrick

I could write a book on what happened while in a coma at UCLA Medical Center’s brain trauma unit, but I’ve told it so many times, which ended up turning against me.
I am hated by everyone I’ve ever known in the world. No one except three people will answer the phone, return a voicemail, text message, or email. Every church I go to, I’m looked at as if I’m a threat somehow.
Partially, because I work out at the gym 14-16 hours a week, I look threatening even with a smile.
