Zack Clement, 17 years old is a healthy high school athlete. He studied and played soccer at Victory Life Academy in Brownwood, Texas. And last week while he was jogging, he suddenly lost consciousness.
He was rushed to the hospital and the doctors tried to resuscitate him.
According to Clement's account, "They said my heart had stopped beating for 20 minutes."
After doctors took his pulse, Clement was transferred to Cook Children's Hospital in Fort Worth. He woke up after being in intensive care for the next few days.
His recovery was unbelievable, but what was even more amazing was the story he told about the things he saw when his heart stopped beating. “When I was unconscious for those 20 minutes, I saw a man with long hair and then with a thick beard, and I quickly recognized it as Jesus,” he said. He describes what his family believes is a miracle.
“I went up to him, he put his hand on my shoulder and said everything would be fine and not to worry.”
His father Billy Clements said he knew it was a difficult story to accept, but for him and his family, it was the most satisfactory explanation.
“When it wakes up and tells the story it experienced like that. It's really hard to explain. No human can explain it,” said Billy Clement.
His mother Teresa Clements said that although it was a mystery to the doctors, she agreed that her son's resurrection was the result of God's intervention.
“I'm glad He decided to let me have my baby back,” said Teresa Clement.
As for Zack, he decided to return to school in Brownwood after he fully recovered.
