Fear of hell, advice please

Of course they would. Depictions of Jesus are everywhere, in a culture that promotes vivid details of him, details that are translated to vivid concepts in our minds, differing according to our personal attitudes and experiences. Hell, the Bible has vivid depictions of Jesus (in Revelation).

And ... you only see the accounts that tend to be published online.

Quote:Many describe Jesus as having dark hair, while his pictures in the USA make him look almost blond, so the American paintings don't usually mesh with the description of him.

Have you not seen Jesus in some of the movies? Jesus of Nazareth, anyone?

Quote:Yes his appearance slightly differs from person to person, but there is an answer to that:

"Perhaps the greatest reason why Jesus is described in differing ways in NDEs can best be described by Margaret Tweddell who revealed that Jesus appears in a way that you can recognize him and/or just as you've always imagined you see him. He shows himself to us according to our own understanding. The reason for this is that souls can appear in any form they desire."

That's the best they can come up with? Read above to see what I see as the best explanation. It's all psychological, so of course depictions of Jesus are going to change with each person.

And on the contrary, if NDEs implied something supernatural happening, why would they differ at all when it comes to Jesus' form?
