If there are note them down with examples from the text. b) Are there any similarities with what the New Testament says about resurrection in Jeanette’s story? If there are note them down with examples from the text linked to an example from the New Testament. c) Why do you think Jeanette ‘saw’ Jesus? If you were a sceptic of NDE’s how might you explain what happened to Jeanette? Think of as many possibilities as you can and bear in mind what had happened to Jeanette that year. Explain why Jeanette thought her daughter did not come back, giving examples from the text. f) Explain why Jeanette did come back, giving her reasons from the text.
