Hi mylotters. First of all, I am not against any religion. I respect everyone else' religion, I don't judge them! I stumbled upon an article about an 18-year-old girl from Ecuador named Angelica Zambrano who have seen Heaven and Hell.. God showed Him. I am not saying its true or not, but I guess its an eye-opener! God is not coming soon.. HE is coming right away! We should all repent.. We should all confess everything what we feel to Him.. Its hard to explain.. but before you judge me..Read this http://www.testimoniesofheavenandhell.com/2011/03/angelica-zambrano-was-shown-the-kingdoms-of-heaven-and-hell-and-the-return-of-christ/ so you'll understand me I will respect everyone else' views and opinions! God bless everyone!

well,, what can i say, there are so many testimonies about heaven a hell, i really dont remember their names but one ladie is from korea, she also describes hell, and its kind of different of the way many others desbribe it, it can be many different hell places? or just different brains? we cannot forget that our mind is so powerful that we can dream something so clear almost in high definition heheh , i experience a dream that i really love to remember it so real that when i woke up i was mad because it was only a dream, i really would like to know if god is so powerful why he uses this weak messengers? theres many and all of them tell their own version.

Yes you're right! There are many testimonials about heaven and hell.. But I don't base my faith to that testimonies.. As long as I know God is with me.. And I have a strong faith to Him!

great for you, i hope your faith to him is really strong, so my silly questions might not disturb you, i have read many times about religions, and none have convince me, and sometimes when i was younger i was asking god to show me what is him all about i need proofs of his existence, but i wanted to see myself not in a dream, not because of someone told me, something that if i have to testify everyone can trust me. but im sure he cannot come to me, maybe im not important for him or he doent want to be expose in this way, is it too much to ask him to appear anytime here on earth when he i not so busy?

Hi edsss17, If God is presence is everywhere I don't understand why the need to come. Coming from where or coming to. If religion mean a second coming of Jesus then they can stop looking, the way He was treated He must be scared of all earth creatures.

Sorry but it is just another fantasy of which we have seen many over the years. It proves nothing except that some people have vivid imaginations

I don't think a trance, self induced or otherwise, proves that the experience wasn't really paranormal. Certainly fasting is an established and Biblical method of divine assistance. However I agree that I wouldn't take this girl's word for something without some other evidence. Did other people have similar experiences showing them the same things? Did she get any true information she shouldn't have known? Correct predictions of unlikely future events? The sudden ability to speak some obscure, hard to learn language fluently? Did she develop miraculous healing powers? What happened to the paper and pencil God gave her? Is there anything unusual about them?

Its very hard to speak when you don’t know the things and even nobody can make you sure about these things. But I could put my opinion here. In my view that god does not come in real between us to show us his identity rather than he creates the environment so that we could feel that someone is there with us in the bad time. Yes there are incidents when we feel that there is no solution left and solution arises. How this is possible.

1anurag1, there are lots of examples, in the Bible and elsewhere, of God apparently speaking to people or giving them dreams or visions.

here is an example: In a Restaurant Heaven: If you want to buy drink and you have money, you consume that product HEAVENLY.... Hell: But if you want to buy drink and you have no money at all, the bartender shout at you saying "to the HELL with you....

Based from the start it seems that I don't want to be interested in to continue the article about Angelica Zambrano that she have seen MJ and even Pope in hell which was very hard to believe. Even the fact that I am a Roman Catholic I have this thinking as well if we are gonna be reincarnated or most likely our soul will be in some good place such heaven and hell which is applicable to all people and not only to the Christians and Catholic. I mean practically speaking all of us are dying so where would be the souls go? Meaning if you are Muslim and Buddhist you won't be accepted to heaven because your religion was different even if you were able to be the good samaritan on earth? As if there is categories for people whenever we die.

I believe it's possible to get into heaven if you're not a Christian and have never heard to gospel. However, if you have it clearly explained to you and you reject it, you will go to Hell.

Hi Metatronik, I think not. Any other religion can be accepted to heaven.. we only have one God but we have different beliefs about Him.. including different names! But I think those who believed in God and who's good can be accepted to heaven (i guess).. Thanks for dropping by!

Hi edsss, It's good that you respect everyone's religion but please don't be upset by this because some strange things happen to people. The world is not about to come to an end, that is not the way things work. If you want to find God, go within, into the silence. The Bible says, "be still and know that I am God". Blessings.

I truly respect your discussion. I have learned so much from different cultures, religions etc., and it is with a open mind and open heart that I was able to do so. While I was growing up my grandparents took me to church every sunday day and night and on wednesday evenings when I was with them. When I was younger at home, my parents who did not go to church always sent me with my dad's brothers and sisters. I never understood why my parents did not go to church and why they MADE me get up on Sundays and HAVE to go. BUT, I will say I am at peace with religion. I have walked away from how I was raised in the religion my family was on both paternal and maternal. I turned to another religion and for various reasons because I cannot judge people as some of the Bible thumping religions do, I am very much at peace with changing and going to this church. I just want all to be loved and accepted regardless of race, culture or creed. After all God will judge us on how we treat others too. I will embrace a Syrian woman as easily as I would a protestant. I can learn something from someone each day and I always look to learn something new.

Hi marie.. I admire you for that! I have this thought in my head since I was younger... If only everyone in the world would not judge each others' religion.. a world could be a better place! I actually have a friend who is a Born Again preacher and his wife is a catholic... They are not having problems about it.. They even ask each others' opinions everytime when it comes to religion and they respect everyone's thoughts and idea.. Could it be any better if everyone of us is like this?

Thank you edsss. When I was at home still in high school, I used to go to church with a Baptist minister and his wife. She could not have children so they adopted a boy. I loved this minister and his wife they were always very kind to me. My senior year of high school this ministers son dated a Catholic girl, (unfortunately got her pregnant out of wedlock) and both sets of parents made them get married. For all that all religions tell us to love and forgive, this minister and his wife was very hard on this girl. the girl and their son wound up in a divorce. I recently got to talk to her on Facebook, and she told me her story. She said his parents were always hard on her and that all she got out of the relationship and marriage was a beautiful baby boy. I left that church and religion before I found this out for personal reasons of my own. But when I found that out I realized again why I left this religion. I can't deal with the double standard some churches and religions present.

Hi bunso! I've recieved an email from our pastor long before this post of yours about the so-called Angelica Sembrano saying about her revelations about heaven and hell,haven't read the email yet bunso but the title itself gave me a hint. Haven't read also the link you've given but I know for myself that I will just wonder about it if it's true or not. True or not,it will not matter to me at all bunso. I believe that for as long as I believe in our Lord and have faith in Him,there's nothing to be afraid of. But honestly bunso,what I'm afraid of is the end of the world which I know is near. WE just really have to be prepared for His coming and hope that we are included in His paradise. Goodnight bunso! Sleep tight and don't forget to pray!

Yehey! That's good news to me bunso,happy that you're feeling better. It is only He who can heal you fully. Yes,rapture is very true bunso and will sure to happen. I'm happy that my baby will be included in the rapture before the tragedies will happen in our world. I just hope all of my family are also included in the rapture so we will not experience all the scary things that will happen. It is said that being kind to others is not enough for us to be with our Lord in paradise,there are more things we have to do like we should preach the gospel of Him to others. Let's just be ready for it. See yah bunso! Take care always!

HI inay. Read it.. This article is truly an eye-opener! It says there that our Lord showed her what hell and heavens look like.. While reading it with my Papa, a tear came down from eyes.. If only everyone of us can repent to Him.. No one can ever go to hell. If everyone of us in this world would not create wars, debates and anything that can make troubles.. This world will be a better place! Its my dream to have a world like that! And actually inay, it also says in that article that the rapture is true... And only the holy can go to the Heaven with Him.. You're right inay.. its pretty scary, especially for the little ones.. But what can we do?.. We just have to wait for it and be ready. I am ready for it inay.. I have a strong faith and love for Him! And inay.. know what? I think I am getting better in my depression. I keep on talking to Him and keeping myself busy most of the time to avoid being depressed!

I see four main possibilities. The girl is delusional . . . in which case we can ignore her, outside of possibly helping her. The girl is making it up . . . in which case we must ignore her. The girl was visited by God, or an emissary of God . . . in which case we have to question the Lord's logic in showing this particular one individual the "truth" and making everyone else suffer and doubt. The girl was visited by an imposter spirit . . . in which case we are better off ignoring this. Three out of four to ignore and one very confusing "God" possibility. I am going to ignore and carry on. We always seem to be at the "End of Days", but humanity manages to survive. I trust in the collective spirit of mankind. Too bad individual humans aren't as resilient. Rat Out.

My Lord said "If you love me, you will keep my commandments," and the only commandment he gave regarding the future of this world is "BE NOT TROUBLED!" Were there other ones that I missed because I was busy keeping that one?

The testimony of that girl may be true or may not. It could be fabricated or it could be true. But no matter what, as far as I am concerned, I don't need any other testimony. The Word of God is enough for me to believe there is heaven and hell. His Word is my only valid proof and basis that Jesus will come again to redeem the redeemed and I am happy because I am one of those redeemed. So while to many, the end of the world is a fearful thing, to me it is a glorious event. It is a fulfillment of His promise and that promise we Christians do await with gladness as we sing this hymn of Fanny Crosby: [i]"Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it! Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; Redeemed through His infinite mercy, His child and forever I am. Refrain Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; Redeemed, redeemed, His child and forever I am. Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus, No language my rapture can tell; I know that the light of His presence With me doth continually dwell. I think of my blessèd Redeemer, I think of Him all the day long: I sing, for I cannot be silent; His love is the theme of my song. I know there’s a crown that is waiting, In yonder bright mansion for me, And soon, with the spirits made perfect, At home with the Lord I shall be." [/i] -- God bless everyone!

edsss17, I'm confused. Some of the things you say sound Christian but a Christian should not respect other people's religions. Well I suppose this depends on what you mean by "respect". There was a discussion on myLot recently about why some people disrespect Islam. As you could probably have predicted, there were responses that the Muslim who started it didn't like, it got very acrimonious and ended up being deleted. However it did make me think about what constitutes respect. Is it more respectful to be polite and bite your tongue or to tell the truth? Not an easy question. I also think that respecting people is different from respecting their religions. The Bible says that there is only one God and anybody who is not for Jesus is against him so Christians should be opposed to all other religions (however we should be more accepting of different forms of Christianity, which does NOT include Mormonism, the Jehovah's Witnesses etc.). Also Judaism was originally a genuine revelation of God but the Jews (mostly) refused to recognize the Messiah. Anyway, I thought I had better things to do with my time than read through the whole article and watch the video. Therefore I'm not sure if this was a genuine revelation or not. I can believe that Michael Jackson and even Pope John-Paul II are in hell. I have issues with the claim that God is coming right away. What does this mean? The second coming, the apocalypse (perhaps if I'd read all the article I'd understand what this meant), something else? In a sense God is always everywhere anyway but he does seem to be more strongly present at certain times and places. Jesus shouldn't return until the apocalypse and then should reign of earth for 1000 years. I don't think the apocalypse is coming that soon (what's soon, in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Aslan says, "All times are soon to me."). There are clearly a number of things that need to happen first and haven't. However I do think we'll be seeing some of these things happening soon. I strongly suspect that the present troubles in the Middle East will soon lead to a huge war and some other disasters (e.g. famines due to the oil supply being disrupted) that will kill a quarter of the world's population as prophesied in Reve 6:1-8.
