23 Minutes In Hell………..Is Hell Real?…Do people really go there?…Part 1
Today's topic was one that most of us do not want to discuss, or for the most part acknowledge but, the fact is Hell is real and real people go there. In today's article I will be giving you God's Word along with highlights from the book entitled 23 Minutes In Hell a very powerful book. In this book Bill Wiese experienced hell for 23 minutes. God will allow supernatural activity in believers lives that is if they believe and some have dreams, visions, and visitations. The bible is very clear about testing the spirits if you would like to read more on that you can click this link Testing the Spirits
I will only give some of the highlights of this book but really I recommend you reading the book. There is to much information to put into one blog. The next two or three blogs will be on this topic. It is extremely important! And after learning what the bible says on hell and reading this book, I wouldn't want one person to go there. It's a real eye opener.
Here are some bible verses: "For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts." Malachi 4:1 KJV
…and will cast them into the furnace of fire. Matthew 13:42
….I am tormented in this flame. Luke 16:24
IF A MAN ABIDE NOT IN ME, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. John 15:6 KJV
And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit…..and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. Revelation 9:2 KJV
For they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth…with them that go down to the pit. Ezekiel 31:14 KJV
Ok! So here are just a FEW verses that speak on hell. There is MANY more in the bible. There are some key phrases I want you to look at.
First "I am tormented in this flame" That is not past tense! It does not say I WAS tormented it says I AM tormented! What does that say about hell? That it is real and it is for the unsaved in this present time.
Second "IF a man abide not in me, he is cast forth." That means if you do not have Jesus Christ as your Lord and you are not saved then you are going to that dreadful place. It's not my opinion it's what the Word of GOD SAYS!
Here are some of the highlights from the book
I was catapulted out of my bed into the pit of hell. I was in a cell and as I lay there on the floor I felt extremely weak stated Bill. I still had a my body and when I lifted my head I could see two enormous beasts, unlike anything I have ever seen before! They were about 13 feet tall and they were not of the natural world. I could sense they were evil and they paralyzed me with fear. The creatures were not human nor where they animals but somehow I knew they meant me harm. I wanted to try and run but I had absolutely NO STRENGTH!
Psalms 88:4 states "I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength" KJV Somehow I had the understanding that death penetrated me, but eluded me. The mental anguish I felt was indescribable Bill stated. The smell of this place was so foul I thought that alone should have killed me but it didn't it was toxic!
I heard terror filled deafening screams of multitudes…and I was horrified stated Bill. I had the the understanding people on earth did not realize that there was this whole other world going on down here in hell and the fact that it existed! For some reason my senses were keener.
Ok…that was just a little of the first part I have so much to share about this I am sorry but I can not fit this into one blog! I will go into part 2 of this tomorrow…if you want to pray one thing that is so important it would be on this subject! Pray that your loved ones, your friends, even your enemies, even yourself not go to this dreadful place of torment. Be Blessed!

Comments on 23 Minutes In Hell………..Is Hell Real?…Do people really go there?…Part 1 »
I believe I heard this on a cassette tape in 1991. I was in my truck during the middle of the day when I heard this. The words moved my soul, and I pulled over to the side of the road and gave my sinful life over to Jesus Christ our Master and Saviour.
Praise God!
Praise God! Jim isn't it wonderful that God will go out of his way to reach us!
I believe God gave Bill wiese this experience to warn people about hell,but muslims,hindus and buddhists are not going to believe it.They don`t think Jesus Christ is the Way to God.
Praise be to God. By the Grace of God I am a born again person and a child of God. But the narration made me to think again. It helped me to get right with God in all areas of my mind(thinking part), body as these are the two parts that sin against God. May God bless His servant.
It is literal Hell, yes i believe that because one of them reject to Jesus then send go to hell for temporary then will stand before God's judgment to everyone were unsaved will throw into the Lake of Fire for ever!
if you don't believe in the hell, then you have to answer to God! You better to take to be Born Again before too late for you!
Praise the Lord that you will blessing receive the crown when will time to Rapture!
AMEN!
great is he our lord,i wish the whole world will come to the serving knowledge of christ!continue with your ministry,may the lord open his gates of wisdom unto you!
I think when we can get into the habit of spending more time in prayer and study about witnessing to others there will less people going to hell.
There was a stop sign at the end of my street, it intersected with a fairly busy road. The sign was not visible until you got right up on it due to some large bushes at the neighbors house on the corner. One day I saw a car almost get into what would have been a horrible accident. I did everything in my power to force the city to install warning signs that there was a stop ahead. Eventually they made our neighbor cut the bushes down.
We should be the same way about warning people of up coming danger. I can honestly say that I was much more passionate about forcing the city to install warning signs to save lives than I have been about telling people they will spend eternity in hell if they do not stop traveling on the road they are on.
Great Point! It is vital that we spend time in prayer and go forth to witness to the lost! But let me share this with you.. It is great to witness and we are all called to do just that. To be led By the Holy Spirit is so important when to talk what to talk about ect. But most importantly we all need to have an understanding what we are being saved from! So many today as well as Christians do not believe in Hell!
How can that be? I will tell you why! Because there is so much division in the Church today and most pastors preach on one side of the fence and not the other! This is a Disgrace to Almighty God! It is either to much of the water down message live any old way you want because we are under Grace or it's the opposite! Your going to Hell if you do not change your ways and that can make someone deathly afraid of God so that they never fully come into a relationship with Him! You HAVE TO HAVE BALANCE!!!!!
God Bless You
