You're now Satan's enemy not his friend and he hates you for a reason...because you have God. He's going to use the meanest, cruelest tactics thats available and he doesn't care about your friend. Prayer is such a powerful tool, when we lift up those before God in prayer and ask of Him to intercede He hears us and we must leave it in His hands. Speaking to others about your Salvation in Christ is what witnessing to others is all about, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. Your right on track with what God asks of us as believers in Christ. Pray for your friend and I will pray as well that God will touch his heart. We can't force God upon others but we can still love them in Christ.

God is holy, he is set apart/different from anything of this world. When we are following the leadership of the Holy Spirit it shows in our life. We are different from this world. Jesus was different, after his death and resurrection the Holy Spirit was given to all who accept Him. When we heed to the leadership of His Spirit we become like Christ....different. That difference even leads to persecution by this world who doesn't know Him. But this world will not be the judge in the end.

If he's make believe then he will face that which he's trying to warn others from. God knows.

Scripture shares that those in hell will be released for judgment before God and then all who are lost (fallen angels and man) are thrown into a lake of fire. Even death and hell itself will be cast into the lake of fire in the end. Punishment will be dealt according to scripture and it will be for eternity. Revelation 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. In Matthew Jesus confronted two that were demonic possessed and the demons spoke these words. Matthew8: 29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time? Their time is coming and they know it.

Amen and we should be. But that doesn't rule out that God just might continue doing the supernatural just as he's done in the past.

So if someone receives healing or prophecy for example, we shouldn't believe it because their testimony is not in the Bible?

All Christians comes from a non Christian background....at one point we were all lost without Christ. Its each persons choice of whether to follow what the Holy Spirit leads us to do. Only then are we Christ like, after all thats what Jesus did and asks of us.

Sad but so true.

Jesus is the Word revealed, but many didn't and still don't believe Him. Why would Satan use a person to proclaim just how real hell is and that we should turn to Christ? If anything, he would want the truth to be kept hidden. If Satan isn't using this guy then Jesus is, whether we grasp it or not. Or he simply had a psychotic episode. Which of course is the most likely scenario. Is that the answer for those in the Bible who were given revelation? God is the same today as yesterday, but the possibility is there that this guy is psychotic and nothing he saw was for real. Personally he didn't seem psychotic to me but I guess Satan would love for us to think that about someone speaking about hell.

Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Hell is real and I believe God wants all to know it without a doubt. Even if someone is allowed to experience it so that they share with many who dont believe. God's love for us is far greater than our minds are capable of understanding. I did watch the video and I believe him....he's pointing others to Jesus Christ, doesn't make sense to me that he would lie in order to do that. Toward the end of the video he said something that broke my heart, I personally knew what he was speaking about. He said that Jesus allowed him to experience just a part of His love. He said he could feel Jesus pain as many were falling into hell. I've shared it here before that I've experienced that type of sorrow and it never leaves me, but causes me to share the truth with others. Sin causes love to experience pain. God is love, why does he hate our sin? Because he loves us and it breaks His heart when we choose sin over Him.....yes even His own children (myself included) at times choose sin over Him. In the end sin will be removed along with those who love it more than God, only love will be left for us to experience....God is love.

So why can't you show us this truth, if it is fact? Is it a secret to be kept? Ephesians 5:9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) If it is truth why hide the fruit? God bless.

shiloh you better start jogging now to get a head start.........

Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. He steadily points out our mistakes and accuses us before God....I get a picture in my mind of him pointing his finger and saying...look at that one sin he doesn't love you, look at what he just did how can he be a child of God...and so on. But he doesn't quite understand (yet) the power in the blood of Christ spilled on the cross. Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

What a blessing Ovedya, looking forward to hearing more as you're lead to share.

This has really touched me Silentprayer, this is truely the love of Christ being shown through your life. I'm almost crying and I'm a guy.....I'm not suppose to do stuff like that.

Amen Dennis, imagine not only being surrounded, but also filled with God's perfect love at all times for all eternity. Woooo theres going to be some shouting and praising God going on for eternity. Even now we should be thankful and praise Him!

I guess I would have to pass on this one.....can't really remember whether I have any bad memories........

The word 'believe' is mentioned at least 280 times in scripture....Christians believe in God, but how much do we believe in what God says we are capable of doing through the Holy Spirit? Satan steals from us so much of what is ours, doubt and fear are some of his strongest tools used against us.

Amen, and in Brazil the same thing is happening. My pastor has been on several mission trips there and he personally met with a lady who's husband died from a stroke. He was proclaimed dead by the doctor who came to her house. Her family said that she had been praying over her husband's body for eleven hours. She told my pastor that she prayed another time at the end and life was restored to his body. He asked what she had done different during the last prayer...she said an inner voice told her to rebuke the spirit of death and so she began rebuking the spirit of death and life was restored. My pastor met with her husband, because of the stroke she had to teach him all over just like a child on how to eat, walk and so forth...he still couldn't speak. My pastor was preaching there in the town and both the lady and husband came, the interpreter told the husband that by the end of the sermon he would speak again. My pastor said we he was done the husband came forward and gave his testimony...he was speaking clearly again. My pastor said that was just one case and the missionary he works with there said it wasn't uncommon and happens quite often.

If he is he better get on over to the middle east and get a seven year treaty worked up. Demonic spirit/spirits leading those deceived by the lies spoken through him. "De Jesus says he learned he was Jesus reincarnate when he was visited in a dream by angels." Fallen angels perhaps???? I would say so..... 2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

That I don't remember it seems like it was Canada or Alaska but I cant say for sure. I just remember seeing the video of it on the History channel I believe is what it was on...but its been years ago and I no longer have tv.

Its been years ago since I've seen it, but they actually have video footage of a big lake being emptied after an earthquake occured underneath it. I can't remember where it happened but the video was old and in black/white. It only took about 15 minutes before it was gone.

Matthew 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Its really not about what we have to show for our achievements, but about God's love being shown through us. Have you asked Him where he wants you to be in this point in your life?

If its from the heart, would it please God?
