blue123 and friends,

I too really love good personal testimony. I really believe it helps to be a light to others for Him.

I'm sorry to say that I don't agree with her being a good testimony to share. I watched the video in full and really disagree with many points she appears to make. I hope I am just misunderstanding.

A few specific things I disagree with.

- She heard a small voice that told her to remove the gun from her head and place it at her chest. She then goes on into the reasoning of this as she argued with the voice.

- She then goes to hell, briefly, where she understands the thoughts of others and then off to heaven where she doesn't have a full pass to interact


I think I'll just stop there and say that much of what she says does not seem to be supported by the Bible in my opinion. Some might find that relevant, but I am coming from a standpoint of a Christian who believes His Word.


blue123, please don't take this as an attack of your opinion but simply as another opinion of a person who also loves Him.

Again, I too really enjoy wonderful testimony. I believe we don't have to look far. We can get involved with brothers and sisters right in our own area who He has provided around us for good personal testimony.

As always, test everything against His Word.


I just wanted to add that we have plenty of arguing here already, so please don't take this as if I am coming from a hateful heart. I'm not feeling angry or argumentative. I just have some real issues with what I believe I understand her to be saying.

Blessings

she asked god for forgivness god interviened,her decision to go with the voice saved her life, suicide is drivin by demonic opression.

- She then goes to hell, briefly, where she understands the thoughts of others
too bad, her account of her experience makes perfect sense to me.

and then off to heaven where she doesn't have a full pass to interact
you must be born again to enter the kingdom of heaven evidently she was forgivin but not born again, over the years i have known individuals that accepted christ but were not born again but god protected them from dieing.

I think I'll just stop there and say that much of what she says does not seem to be supported by the Bible in my opinion. Some might find that relevant, but I am coming from a standpoint of a Christian who believes His Word.

i dont get offended, however i would caution speaking out against her simply because you lack understanding, here is a great opertunity to gain some insight into gods love and power and what hell really means, as we who are in christ become total life, faith and light so those in hell become total death, fear and darkness in my experience with spiritual warfare over the years including one on one in person hearing a testamony about a visit to hell from one individual i knew personaly, she hits the nail on the head.

I've seen many, many testimonies where folks are declared dead by a medical doctor but the people are conscious and able to see themselves from a distance. So much for "soul sleep." Very interesting stuff.

[bamabear]

The Bible clearly say, that No one has assended to Heaven but Yahweh and Yahshua, and since we are at rest until the last trump, no one has went to hell yet, Lots of these stories lately....I don't know.

and oh, this is on TBN,

luke 16:23-26
23And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

24And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

25But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

26And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

matt.27:51-53
51And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

52And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,

53And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

eph. 4:7-9
7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. 8 Therefore it says,

“WHEN HE ASCENDED ON HIGH,
HE LED CAPTIVE A HOST OF CAPTIVES,
AND HE GAVE GIFTS TO MEN.”

9 (Now this expression, “He ascended,” what does it mean except that He also had descended into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He who descended is Himself also He who ascended far above all the heavens, so that He might fill all things.)

2 Corinthians 12:2, "I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth) such an one caught up to the third heaven."

I think bamabear has a point in that the bodies of men haven't been caught up but I do believe that the spirits of men can enter Heaven after death.

Luke 23:42-43, "And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise."

I'm certain that Jesus Christ didn't lie to the thief but kept His promise.

[bamabear]

the third Heaven , that brings up a good study and questions, How many are there ? and I believe your spirit goes out of you body after you take your last breath,

I understand that we won't agree on this and am honestly not here to cause issue over our difference in opinion.

You may certainly be correct and I may be incorrect. Folks should weigh that out for themselves.

My attempt here is to say that I believe we should weigh everything against Scripture. My opinion is that there are some things said there that do not hold true in Scripture.

Clearly, you and I see that differently. I considered discussing our difference in opinion here, but don't see that it would do much besides cause strife. Please know that I'm not saying this lightly and believe this or I'd not have made a post in your thread like my original post.

I believe, from your replies, that we agree that it should be weighed against Scripture and I think that point is clear. And, of course, that is just an obvious answer to all of us who believe we should weigh everything against Scripture.

Blessings

Cant make up my mind about this lady, but it has similarities to this Guy.

Ian McCormack - CBN interview (Part 1 of 2) ...

Ian McCormack - CBN interview (Part 2 of 2) ...

Heard of him from a FGBF meeting in the U.K.

Cant say how they fit scripture but can't fault the message.

Where are the two or three witnesses in the word for this stuff?

[ActionJackson]

I see the hyenas are circling around this thread as well. Sorry blue.

[ActionJackson]

Blue. I've seen several episodes of a show called "I Survived." It's not necessarily a Christian program but many of the testimonies are centered around Christ and the idea of life after death. I find it fascinating.

It appears on the Biography channel on cable TV.
