Question from Will on 11-29-2012:

Hi, I am a Christian and would like to know if out of the body experience can be sought after? Can I seek it by faith or is this practice demonic? Thank you!

Answer by Fr. John Echert on 12-04-2012:

If sought after it would be demonic; if it happens unintentially, such as those who have a near-death experience, that is providence.

Thanks, Will
