"LRE"- God's Microfilm of our Life?

Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Ecclesiastes 11:9/12:14

"Your life really does flash before your eyes when you die, a study suggests - with the parts of the brain that store memories last to be affected as other functions fail.

Researchers said  the new  study shines a light on "a most intriguing mental phenomenon that fascinated humans from time immemorial" - which they coined "life review  experience" (LRE).
Those involved in  the study said they lost all sense  of time, with memories flying  back at them from all periods of their life. 
Researchers said that the phenomenon could be caused by the parts of the brain that store autobiographical memories like the prefrontal, medial temporal, and parietal cortices.
This suggests that a representation of life-events as a continuum exists in the cognitive system."
