Do you think about the death of yourself and what lies beyond death? How often?

Do you look at death that only happens to others, but not yourself?

What are some of the beliefs out in the world of where a person will end up after death?

• Heaven
• Hell
• Blackness or nothing
• Reincarnation
• Become a ghost.
• Some people believe when you die you create your own reality such as heaven or hell

Do a quick search on the internet these days on hell it seems that it is used with careless flippancy by most people in the world today – Christians included. We can see this in speech, such as:

“That was a hell of a game.”

“What the hell are you doing?”

“My boss is making my job a living hell.”

And Han SOLO in Star Wars says, “I will see you in hell!”

In the near death video Near Death Experience: This Will Leave All Christians in Shock. Howard Pittman, who was a preacher and retired cop, was determined to be dead on August 3, 1979 in an ambulance on the way to the hospital. At that time he had an out of body experience, where angels took him to the spiritual world where he was allowed to see many things. As a result of that experience, he wrote over 15 books, all dealing with that experience and outlining the many things he was allowed to see, and the things he heard. He mentions in an interview, he was shown two thousand people that died in 15 minutes time, he saw 50 make it to heaven and nineteen hundred went to hell. That means only 2.5% make it to heaven.

Well to my surprise I got to experience and get a glimpse of hell recently. I had a very vivid vision dream. Almost out of body experience and I have had many in my life. We do have a soul! (spiritual body) On the morning of 8/9/2024, I got a very powerful glimpse of hell and I believe that I was shown Satan’s Castle in Hell. When I had this glimpse of hell, I was sick at the time with a fever, coughing and headache. This experience happened around 4am.

I was taken to the top of a tower of a dark castle. I was being carried or guided by something. Almost like floating in a chair. Inside the tower was a circular stair case made of stone, which was black colored. This place smelled bad. The floating chair tried to take me down the stairs but I jumped off. I knew down below was going to be bad. I tried walking up the stairs but could not go up any further. Only down was available and I could sense the evil below that awaited for me. I walked down a few stairs and saw a window. I looked out the window and my vision became crystal clear. I looked down and saw parts of this castle. It was huge, dark and rounded. Off a little in the distance were slightly smaller castles and then beyond that was a huge wall. Beyond the huge wall was lava. I knew then I was in hell and my gut feeling this was Satan’s castle. His home. I started say Jesus Christ is Lord over and over again. Then after a few minutes things changed. I was then shown the earth and it’s beauty. Then I found myself In a room and on the ceiling was a nasty looking demonic mark which was burning. Horrible mark. Then I woke up. The picture above I created in Photoshop with images to give a general idea of what I saw and is probably 50% accurate. It gives you and idea. This is not a place you want to end up for eternity. I write this now to warn those who read this! Time is short.

Matthew 7:13-14

¹³ “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. ¹⁴ But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Think about it. Only 2.5%.. The road is very narrow. This is very sobering. Think just believing in Christ is narrow, then it gets even more narrow when you get baptized and become a disciple. Hell is no joke. Just do a search on Youtube on Hell Near Death experiences and you will get many testimonies of people experiencing hell. Hell is mentioned by some estimates 50 to 167 times in the bible.

When I was studying the bible 21 years ago, becoming a disciple, at one point I had a vivid dream where the ground opened. I know hell awaited me. I started falling towards it and then woke up. At that moment I knew that I needed to repent of my sorcery, divination, transcendental meditation, and many other sins and finish my bible studies and become a disciple. I was being warned!

Luke 16: 19-31

¹⁹ “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. ²⁰ At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores ²¹ and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.

²² “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. ²³ In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. ²⁴ So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’

²⁵ “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. ²⁶ And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’

²⁷ “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, ²⁸ for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’

²⁹ “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’

³⁰ “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’

³¹ “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’”

Notice Lazarus talks about agony in this fire!

Matthew 5:29-30

²⁹ If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. ³⁰ And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

Mark 9:42-44

⁴² “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea. ⁴³ If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. ^[44]

^{Notice here where the fire never goes out! This is for eternity!}

^{2 Peter 2:4}

For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them in chains of darkness to be held for judgment;

Notice here, that Satan’s angels go to hell and become known as demons then.

Matthew 25:41

⁴¹ “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. ⁴² For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, ⁴³ I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

So we can live in denial, or go ignorance is bliss as they say, or we can accept the reality of it. I know many of us wish it never existed or was some fairy tale. But the bible is quite clear it exists.

So, what shall we do?   What should we do? Thank the God almighty we have a way out for what his son did on the cross!

Acts 2:38-47

³⁸ Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. ³⁹ The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”

⁴⁰ With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” ⁴¹ Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.

The Fellowship of the Believers

⁴² They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. ⁴³ Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. ⁴⁴ All the believers were together and had everything in common. ⁴⁵ They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. ⁴⁶ Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, ⁴⁷ praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

Philippians 2:11-13

¹² Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, ¹³ for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

Please read the bible! Repent! Find a disciple making church like ICOC. Make Jesus your Lord and Savior and get baptized so you may receive the gift of the Holy Spirit!

Hell is no Joke and Heaven is for Real!

Sincerely,
