Our Warning

Heaven or Hell? Where will we go? Is it real? Oh yes it is, Heaven is just a breath away and so is Hell. I was warned by way of a book (A Divine Revelation of Hell, by Mary K. Baxter) of what is waiting for me when I die. Each page contained a part of my life in it. The premise of the book is Mrs. Baxter was visited by Jesus for the purpose of writing this book. Over a period of 30 days Jesus took her soul into all the different parts of Hell so she could hear stories of the people sent there and be witness to conversations Jesus had with its residents. She was able to see,  hear, smell and feel all that Hell had to offer. The agony described within it pages was more than I could bear and I believe all these things she witnessed to be true. I was all those people for the most part except the wealthy aspect, but other than that those people were me. Jesus repeated many times the way he tried to contact each person and they just didn't follow or they became to self absorbed in money and sex to even hear the truth anymore even if they were believers, but those that were believers committed one of the big unforgivable sins which is to know Christ then turn your back on Him for the things the world has to offer.  Churches and religious leaders support her ministry and have not disproved a single word of Her accounts.  I believe and stories support that Jesus tries to contact and get into our hearts many times but the only way that will happen is if we ask Him to be there. It is like someone standing at the door holding many gifts for us. We know they are out there but the only way that person will get into our House is if we open the door and invite them in. Otherwise if we don't the person may remain out there wanting in but is stuck because we don't want them in the House. Eventually we will lose the chance to have that person in our house and will miss out on the gifts that person wanted to give us. If you think Christ is knocking at your door than let Him in and receive the Gifts He has too offer. Otherwise when we die it is too late to open the door and then we are where we will never escape from. The stench, the loneliness, the pain, the heartbreak, the flames, the heat, the darkness, and worst of all the knowledge of a God that we did not follow or did not want to believe in. We will then feel that separation from a God who loves us for an eternity. This is what Hell has to offer all of us who chose to not believe in Jesus or turn their back on Him for what the world has to offer. Just imagine the horrors that are occurring right this very second and the tortures that are being inflicted and will be for an eternity to millions of souls. There is a way out and that is a belief in Jesus Christ and repenting of our sins then living a new way that is Christ centered. The price tag is too great and I would of ended up there if I died sooner than two years ago. Two years that's it and I am 40 now. I am not preaching at you but I am a guy who has been close to receiving that sentence and just want to help others just like me not receive what I deserved. Hell is too big of risk for anyone and the sad part is at any given moment we could die that is certain. Today maybe your very last chance at Salvation literally.

I watched some videos on U tube the other night about near death experiences of Heaven and Hell. Some people may not believe in near death but I do. I believe it only makes sense that God would allow someone to die to grab their attention to turn to Him or to tell others the spiritual realm is real for the purposes of letting all know that their is something after this life. He loves us that much that He could literally love us to death to share or to turn. Why not? He is God and He can do that if someone needs it or if someone has the capability of spreading the Good news to many that need to hear Heaven is real and tell of their experiences or that Hell is real and tell of their experiences.It only makes sense.

One of the videos showed a young man who was involved in the Gang life and died in a car accident. He was speaking to a group of youths at a local church and told of his experience. He descended into a hole that just didn't end, he could hear but could not see because it was just so dark. He eventually came to a stop and was surrounded by moans, unbearable hollering, horrifying screams, and a smell unlike anything he had ever experienced. He said you wanted to throw up and plug your ears but could not, you had to experience all of it. He said he had believed all of his life but wasn't living it, he chose what the gang had too offer and did the things they wanted. He cried out and pledged his life and would make a difference to others if he could get out. That moment he was forced back into his body and woke up at a hospital. He has since opened a youth ministry and talks to young gang kids and kids that have yet to join gangs.

Another man was an Atheist all of his life and had a heart attack, he remembers being taken out of his body and forced downward where he could see at the bottom of this hole fire that just raged, he remembers feeling the heat and the screams of millions of souls all at once. God chose to save him from this for a purpose he had to complete. He woke up in a hospital with his wife at his side and asked where he was at and told her he was in a much different place. She told him he has been right here the whole time but he again said no I was somewhere and told her of the horrors he had seen. He since has opened his own ministry and is a writer. This mans earlier life was filled with jails, addictions, fights and divorces. He was saved I believe to be a living example that you can turn from that life and follow Christ. He was lucky, millions more are not I would venture to guess. I would say most only get one shot than it is said and done, scripture supports that statement. I would tell you where but I think opening the bible to find it yourself would do you more good than harm because you can never tell what else you will find.

Now there was a lady in England that went to Heaven when she died. She told of this amazingly bright light that she was drawn to. The more she walked into it the more she became less aware of herself. She talked of this intense ecstasy she felt and knowledge poured into her. The one piece that really stuck with her was a voice in her head saying "there is a perfect plan being played out in perfection of the plan". She stayed in that unaware ecstasy state till she found herself in a meadow aware she had died and who she was. She was sent back I believe to share her story that there is a Heaven and that is what we could expect.

Afterlife is real, we will never die. We will go on to eternal destinations of Heaven or Horror. Jesus is, "The Truth, the Way and the Life, nobody comes to the Father except through Him." Jesus Himself said so and that is what we must do and believe.

Who do you say Jesus is? and what does it mean to you?
