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!
