A woman who tried to take her own life as a teenager has spoken of the ‘horrendous’ things she saw as she was taken to the crematorium.
Tamara Laroux, who is now 54 years old, was filled with feelings of rejection at the age of 15 when her parents divorced, reflecting on her separation.
He took his mother’s 38 caliber gun, aimed at their heart, pulled the gun n immediately he knew that his body was dying.
‘I felt the blood rush into my lungs. Death took hold of my body. I became blind and deaf,’ Laroux explained, and began to travel faster than the speed of light.
He described feeling an explosion inside his body as if ‘someone had taken acid and poured it’ all over him.
When Laroux remembered feeling completely isolated, he found himself standing among millions of other people who were screaming in pain and begging for another chance.
According to Laroux, behind the sea of tormented souls was a creature with dragon-like heads on its body that ‘stood the most terrifying thing the world had ever seen.
But then a great hand ‘brighter than any light he had ever seen’ pulled him out of the darkness and carried him away. he brought him to heavensaid Laroux.
Tamara Laroux, who is now 54 years old, was filled with feelings of rejection at the age of 15 when her parents divorced, reflecting on her separation. He took his mother’s 38 caliber pistol, pointed it at her heart, pulled the trigger and immediately knew that her body was dying.
Scientists don’t really know why some people are so close to death, but they think it’s caused by changes in my brain caused by extreme stress.
This can lead to altered consciousness that can appear as vivid sensations such as seeing a bright light and feeling that they are away from their body.
Laroux has written a book about her experiences and is the co-founder of Life Change International, which provides international support.
He has used his near-death experiences to help others but still talks about the struggles he faced as a teenager.
But his problems started when he was 6 years old when his parents separated.
Laroux recalled feeling rejected, lonely and depressed, she told CBN.
He and his two sisters lived with their mother, but when his father called them, he would only talk to his brothers.
‘I didn’t understand why my father talked to others, but didn’t want to talk to me,’ said Laroux.
The pain continued until he was a teenager and in September 1985, he decided that it was better not to live than to live in pain.
Laroux knelt down and put the gun to his head, but he heard a voice telling him to put it to his chest.
When Laroux remembered feeling completely isolated, he found himself standing among millions of other people who were screaming and hurting and begging for another chance.
He pulled the gun, when he felt the bullet pierce his body and fell back to the ground. And then his soul was taken straight to hell.
‘I realized that my life had turned into sin and death,’ he said.
Laroux found himself in a pit of fire and a sea of other souls damned for eternity.
‘I remember looking at the individual, I knew everything about them,’ he said.
I knew every sin he committed. My knowledge about their life was full. I knew their thoughts and feelings.’
In the middle of the fire was an ‘abyss’ that separates hell from heaven and when Laroux looked out, he saw the Earth as if it had been enlarged by a magnifying glass.
As he looked into the distance, he remembered that he was taken out of the pit of fire and taken to what he said was heaven.
He said: ‘The glory of that is indescribable.’
‘The colors were bright and refreshing….their look was refreshing and full of energy.
‘There was so much peace, joy and tranquility.’
Laroux said he felt God’s presence and wanted to stay there but was sent back to Earth instead.
He saw himself entering the roof of his house and returning to his body.
‘I could see and hear again, he said, remembering that he was able to open his eyes and hear everything around him.
Laroux was rushed to the hospital where doctors said the bullet could have exploded his heart but missed it by less than a quarter of an inch.
It has been many years since he tried to kill himself, but the experience has led him to become a Bible teacher and author.
‘I share my experiences openly and honestly to encourage others to live freely,’ Laroux wrote on his website.
‘By telling others the truth, I have helped millions of people find hope and salvation through Jesus Christ.’
