come to think of it, all this stuff don't happen in the western countries or is it because Africans are too spiritual (diabolical). cause I'm really questioning my sanity.
it happened in UK,a Nigerian was working in a morgue,he said he pressed the button for one corpse to come out so that he will clean it and put it back as his job requires him to clean them one after the other,all of a sudden,the whole corpse came out at once,as if they are all staring at him.
He ran out,that was how he stopped working there

Doesn't make sense. Nollywood mentality. That means Jesus's soul was a familiar spirit. And the soul of Lazarus was a familiar spirit too? How come it was able to return so that he woke up from death? What of the bones of dead people who returned to life when Elisha's dead-body touched them? Meaning there are many cases of familiar spirits associated with your biblical saints, hero's and legends than there are in Africa.

LOL sis

These ppl don't even realise how they're contradicting their own beliefs

I thought ppl die and see God instantly ? So how are dead ppl allowed to roam earth as if still alive?

Idiots.

If you lack knowledge seek it.....and please make your points without unnecessary inoudoes

You're the one who lacks knowledge.

I thought ppl die and face judgement instantly? So how is a dead body allowed to talk about who killed him?

Yeye.

Just because you haven't had a personal experience doesn't make it a lie. There are billions of people around the world, and thousands who have claimed to have such experiences in various forms and magnitudes, so why should I believe it's a lie simply because one person said so?

I don't know what makes you free thinkers (who're also Nigerians) think that you are better than other Nigerians who believe in things that elude logical reasoning. What makes you people think you're smarter/more intelligent than those who believe these things?


Do you believe in the flying spaghetti monster? I do and have seen it.

[Dont mind the shallow minds of DZ generation,who do not understand that this world is
deep in mysteries.there are more than the eyes can see.this world is embedded in mysteries...the occult understand a bit of it,but only God knows all of it.uote=luminouz post=99364681]

You are fuqin wrong.

I saw my maternal grandpa with my own eyes while in secondary school. He had just died.


My dad almost drowned when his bike tumbled into a collapsed bridge under heavy rainfall. I was in the kitchen when my mom asked me to throw away some waste water into the bathroom. His ghostly figure rose up in the bathroom and I saw his soaked figure. I shouted his name and the ghostly figure disappeared. Hours later while I was asleep,, he came home and told my mum that it was my shout that woke him up as he was being swept off by the raging flood he fell into.


These are cases I have reported before on NL. I don't have any reason to lie about them. There are several others I can't even say online because people get scared. If you are not sensitive to such issues, you may never encounter such a case. Doesn't mean such stuffs don't exist.[/quote]

If you think na lie, go to a very busy local market, spread your legs, try and see people coming behind you by looking through with your head upside down. Come back and quote this comment the second day, with all sincerity, if you didn't experience or see anything at that moment or overnight, I will stop believing in superstitious stories. Just that what I told you is risky, highly risky. People go blind sometimes if they are not spiritually strong enough, or worse, go crazy.

My God, you're stúpid.

Never u doubt a thing just because u never saw one. The Morticians see things strange, have u asked why some of them have a bent neck. A mortician told a story of how every morning he went inside, a male corpse must be on top of a female one and his joystick becomes rigid, i dont doubt because my late father used to dress and follow in coffin carrying, so, any time a person was gonna die, he would have an automatic neck dislocation.


Okay, this is the strangest.

[MAN HAS SEVEN BODIES.THe dream body is the one that moves around during Sleep,and when dreaming.Not the Spirit body.If it was the Spirit body the person will not be breathing during Sleep and die from there. uote author=luminouz post=99373013]

So sorry to hear that.


What happens in such cases is that when the soul/spirit is near death, a time/space dilation or irregularity occurs. Most times, the spirit rushes back to wherever the loved ones are, just like a stressed animal runs to ground/hole/tree, that it already knows.
This is also a bit similar to the case of when you are sleeping/dozing but a certain sound jars you up and send your spirit rushing back to your body. Your spirit runs back to wherever place it feels safe,in this case, your body.


It doesn't matter which country or continent, if you are dear to such spirits,you'd see them. But now the issue is, have the spirit stayed too long outside the body that the body has become cold or not? My dad's case was the latter, when he showed to me and I screamed his name, his spirit ran back to his body which was still warm and energised, so he was able to make it. If I hadn't seen him that time, he would still keep trying to appear to me but once his body grows cold, no way the spirit can enter back inro a body whose heart had stopped beating or grown cold.

Should Christians believe in ghosts?


Contradicting your own beliefs and don't even know it.
I am a Christian ,I believe that after death the soul goes to rest and I also believe that for some unknown reason evil spirit can sometimes posses the bodies of a dead person, it doesn’t mean it was the actual person that died.

Or is it the one u got a call from a supposed photographer to come out by 8pm to collect pictures only for u to come out on a lonely dark road and no one was there and u just found yourself cold from.head to toe like u like been jazzed...you escaped only to check ya call log and found out there's no one that called u during that period

: the dead know nothing at all (Ecclesiastics 9:5,10)

The same bible says there are principalities and powers, roaming thr earth.

That there are spiritual things the eye cannot see, that necromancers talked to the dead

True the dead know nothing, doesn't mean there are no spiritual machinations going on.

In 2009 I was in 300 level at Delta State university Abraka, a fellow student and a close friend of mine lost his mother and i and some other students went for the burial at Eku, a town about 20 minutes drive from the University.

When they brought the casket from the mortuary in an ambulance, they requested for four tall boys to carry the casket, the son of the late woman approached me and three other guys and said "my friends na my mama be that abeg make una help me carry her to give her full last respect" I and the other boys obliged and we lifted up the casket and rested it on our shoulders and slowly walked along together at the same time, we were given directive by an elderly man to a place it on a table already prepared and wrapped with white clothe.

Prayers were said and everybody walked round the casket as is part of the funeral rite. The four of us were called out to carry the casket to an already dug grave close by, we again placed the casket on our shoulders and walked while others walked behind us, when we sited the grave from about 45 feets away a powerful invisible force came mightily on the casket and it swerved forcing it to face another direction, it was as if an external force was pushing it.

it moved us and we ran with it for a short distance and stopped on its own, suddenly it started again and the more we tried to bring it under control the more difficult it became for us, there was a struggle and maneuver which lasted for about 20 minutes, the four of us were shocked, terrified and heavily mystified.

when all these was happening as a warri boy I begin to pray for my mind and I said " madam easy no be me kill you o, i dey my own o, na your pikin come meet me say say make I carry, na im make I come carry, abeg I no do you anything" One of the daughter's came and we lowered the casket before her and she started taking to it and after then we took the casket to the grave and lowered it inside, we later asked to wash our hands with ogogoro, am still in shock from that experience till this day.

I never really went to a mortuary before so I can't say much on them. I have heard the 'knock door before you entered' part though.

One time I was in U.I anatomy library, next door was a morgue. I laughed when one night, all the ladies ran out,claiming that they heard one noise from the morgue. Prolly a rat because one of the library asbestos was lost,leaving an open space for sound to carry through.

The dead/ghosts are real though so I don't doubt that some would manifest inside a repository like a morgue

I love how jarring your questions are. I am just as curious. I don't really understand how Samuel's case was that of a familiar spirit (I mean it was not indicated) since the operator was a sorcerer... I am aware he went back and it differed from the outright resurrections.
