Coming Back From the Dead

Does anyone know what it is like coming back from the dead? Well, no one that I know does, but I can almost imagine what it would be like. The last thing that you can remember was the diminishing picture of your youngest sister. You can remember the image fleeting and then vanish. You are suddenly drawn into the glory of Heaven, and you start to wonder why you complained so much. You approach the gates of Heaven and they open before you, and you walk in, enthralled. The majesty of God fills the halls and streets, and you realize that this is the reason that you lived. You were meant to glorify God. You start to walk through the streets and you see so many people, people that you knew and some people that you will become friends with over the next couple thousand years, you have an eternity... literally. The streets of Heaven are lined with mansions and magnificent houses that all have owners. As you come to a bend in the street, you see that one house that has your exact name written in the most eloquent calligraphy engraved on a silver plaque that is welded to the door. Continuing on your way down the street, you glimpse the Throne sitting high on a hill. Light radiates from the Being sitting upon it, shining even brighter than the star at the center of the solar system. You begin to run to find a better view of what seems like all of the wonders of the world combined. As your vision is finally rid of the rooftops, you are able to now observe the hill without hinderance. Suddenly your entire body shudders, and you fall to the ground. The image of the hill and all of Heaven starts whirling. The picture starts to smear and run like a marker bleeding through paper and you are left in darkness. As you awaken, you are conscious of the fact that you are lying on a stone, block bench in a cold dark room. You can feel the all of the strips of linen that are wrapped round and round your body, and realize that this is a tomb. You suddenly hear a man's deep voice calling to you, and suddenly the wall to your right explodes and sunlight comes streaming in from the outside. Slowly you rise to your feet, and without taking off the cloth step out into the world...
