Possibly... I swear I thought it said scorpion but whatever. The point was it described some of today's military.

It mentions scorpions and many do believe that describes tanks.

The hard core people believe it is the British Scorpion Light Armored Vehicle.

I knew I wasn't crazy... at least over that.

Pretty good so far, I take it he actually didn't see God though? Just his loved ones, because he never actually went in the gates?

 

[OrangeEmpire]

I just thought about it and I think I might be thinking of Ezekiel. That is another book of the Bible I found very interesting.

The description of angels in the old testament is enough to make you curl up under your sheets.

There are many that believe this particular book has some hidden meaning. There was an old world explorer and star gazer who was obsessed with this book, Copernicus maybe?

Correct, as he was approaching the gates is when he returned back to earth. Right now I'm reading a book called "Glimpses of Heaven" which is the true stories of patients of a hospice nurse. it's foreword by Don Piper who is the same guy who wrote 90 minutes in heaven.

it has some very interesting stories of how these ppl see angels or loved ones right before they pass.

It is funny that you should say that...my aunt was in hospice dying of cancer and the day she died she called to my grandmother and grandfather like she saw them.

 

[Vol Mania 21]

it's crazy how things work

 

[tnvolsfan85]

Yeah it really was...because my grandmother died the month after I graduated high school ('03) and my grandfather died in '89. So it is truly amazing how God works!

You should try reading "The Dying Testimonies of Saved and Unsaved" by S.B. Shaw.

This book was written along time ago and gives the statements of those on their deathbed. It's a hard book to find.

 

[Vol Mania 21]

i'm not sure i want to know what the unsaved saw. you mind giving me an example of the unsaved

 

[tnvolsfan85]

There is also a book called "13 minutes in Hell" it is written by a Christian writer. Although I have never read it...I just saw it in a bookstore! I read the inside cover and it talked about what he saw in Hell...but then God pulled him out..

 

[Vol Mania 21]

you know there is a book out there called like 15 minutes in hell. i bought it, read like a chapter or 2 and couldn't finish it. kinda freaked me out

 

[tnvolsfan85]

Okay...so it is 15 minutes...I couldn't remember how long it was! So you don't recommend the book, huh?

I read a few pages of that (I think). Is that the one where in hell he sees demons that represent sins, or something like that?

 

[Vol Mania 21]

i read to the part where he is in like a jail cell and there are these two huge demons and he describes what they look like. he said they are huge. i was like ok that's all i can handle

 

[Vol Mania 21]

Okay...so it is 15 minutes...I couldn't remember how long it was! So you don't recommend the book, huh?

it might be 13 minutes in hell, i'm not exactly sure, i just knew it was something like that

 

[tnvolsfan85]

it might be 13 minutes in hell, i'm not exactly sure, i just knew it was something like that

Okay...there may be different books...but I googled it and it said 23 minutes in Hell by Bill Wiess. It said he saw demons and heard the agony and screams until God pulled out of the pit.

 

[Vol Mania 21]

that's the one, you got it

 

[tnvolsfan85]

that's the one, you got it

Well...I was looking for a book to read on the beach at Wal-Mart in Destin and I saw that one and read the inside cover and it started to freak me out so I put it back!

It's not so much what they saw. It's what they heard and felt as well. A lot of the saved said they could hear beautiful music or singing. Some said they were seeing beautiful, bright, and vibrant colors.

The unsaved was bad. The majority of these were screaming and kicking right before they died as they had been not moving at all before.

They would scream he's on my bed, get him away from me. Some screamed there were snakes or spiders all over their body. They also were screaming that they were on fire as well, such as feet or other parts of their body.

I know that when I was little, my grandfather had told me of a man that he knew that started screaming that his feet and legs were on fire and was screaming don't let him get me and died right there on the spot. He said he had cancer and had been bedridden for a while.

I had a similar experience from my child hood..... he was literally sweating and the room was freezing because they had turned the temperature down.

The only thing that went through my mind was that he was getting ready to spend eternity in hell.

 

[tnvolsfan85]

It is a scary thing for people who aren't saved..

 

[OrangeEmpire]

I think the part that sticks with me is that he was a deacon of the church. I don't know why, but I just knew he wasn't saved...... the look in his wife's eye........

This was over 20 years ago!
