I remember when I was in my early 20’s my father called me and wanted me to come visit him. He was close to his time of departure from earth and so I drove to Florida to see him. He was a tough man, went through WWII, was a boxer and was not afraid of anything. He was also abusive, an alcoholic and smoked about 2 to 3 packs of cigarettes a day. He was tough like I said. The dreams he was having were scaring him to death. I believe God was showing him where he was heading and it was a chance for him to repent. God is merciful and sadly, he had become agnostic or even an atheist in the end and did he repent? My dad at one time believed and satan managed to sway his thoughts away from God. But remember, there are millions of Christians in hell too; it is not just the unbeliever!Anyway, this is what he saw: He told me he saw such darkness and huge snakes going in and out and coming out of a person’s mouth, he saw other creatures, he said it was so very hot you can’t breathe, he said the smell was awful and mentioned sulfur and the smell of fire, he said something about being so thirsty and getting nothing to drink and he said he could not “shut them up” and I said “what do you mean?” and he said the screams & crying never, never, never stop. He got really super loud saying this to me and He said “I can’t shut them up”!! (he was visibly upset over this). He said it was the worst part of it all; the screams that never end. Well, this caused my dad to stay up for 3 days and nights at a time, smoking his head off because he was afraid to sleep. He said if he stayed up he didn’t see these things. It was so horrible what he saw he would force himself to stay up. He grabbed my arm and told me not to let him fall asleep while I was visiting and would smoke like a fiend letting the ashes hit his chest burning holes into his chest. I had never seen anyone so afraid as I did at that time. Eventually he fell asleep and it would start all over. He was even afraid he said to talk much about it. This happened for several months before he finally passed away.
At that time, I was a heathen myself and didn’t follow God but was never agnostic or had atheist views. I just simply was never taught about God much. It also didn’t change me since I was young and thought it didn’t pertain to me. (I know better than that now). I didn’t know what to say to him at that time but knew how he truly hurt his family through many different ways with no remorse for the things he did to us all. He did what he wanted to do and it was always what he wanted. Recently, I asked God if my father ever repented and He told me “NO” and that He is in hell for all the things he did to me and others.
Wow, and thinking back, look at how much God was showing him to give him a chance to return and yet he flat out refused to tell God he was sorry. Was it pride in him or did he not want to acknowledge he did anything wrong or did he blame his whole life on everyone else and that they were responsible as if anyone owed him anything. I don’t know but I never forgot this and the things he said. There was more but I am trying to make this short.
In ending, please don’t think you are getting in if you have not come before God and truly searched your heart and asked for forgiveness. My dad will never get out or see, be in the light, drink again or have peace! He is forever in eternal torment but he had a choice and didn’t accept God’s mercy of giving him the chance then to repent. Just think of how different it would have turned out for him had He just admitted his faults, said he was sorry and cried out to God. I think now of all those that will be eternally lost forever because they will still rebel even when at the end of their lives. Truly heartbreaking. I know this broke Yeshua’s heart too! He was really reaching out to my dad to return!
Don’t be so stubborn, prideful or have this attitude you have plenty of time to do as you want and can live as you want. Remember Yeshua paid with his own life to give us life! This is not to be taken lightly as if He was expected to do this for us. He didn’t have to do it but He did it out of pure love for us all. He knows where we will end up and wants none of us to end up there! Give your life to Him, He will grant mercy on your soul but don’t just say “empty words” and then go right back to doing what you are doing. He is going far deeper than you can imagine and into the core of your heart! Let it go. None of us are perfect. We all have sinned, we all need forgiveness and we all need Yeshua to save us! None of us can get in without accepting Him as Lord & Savior & just laying it all down at His Feet. Anyone that refuses to forgive cannot enter in because you must remember, you have to forgive others for Him to forgive you. We are not better than anyone else. We all have also hurt people in life, we have been selfish, we have lied to others and even to ourselves about many things, we have said the wrong things, been nasty and so much more.
Please watch this video and stop procrastinating, stop thinking your Pastor or Preacher is right that said we all make it in because God loves our sin. He hates our sin, loves the sinner but that means the sinner must turn away from their sin!!! This is so very serious and I can’t stress it enough. Please just come back and admit you are no better than anyone else. We have been wronged but we also have wronged others. It is called “being human”! Give it up, repent of it all, let it go, be freed from the chains that bind you and let peace enter into your heart! The Kingdom of God is at hand and our time is shorter than you think.
I love you all and here is the video: Don’t you want to be free? Don’t you want to be Held in God’s arms? Don’t you want to make it to the heavenly kingdom?

it’s important to understand the only way for anyone to be Saved- Salvation (Psalm 40:16, Psalm 51:12) and Rapture into the New Jerusalem (Heaven) is with the Son Jesus Christ of Nazareth (John 14:6). The very purpose of our Lord, and his sacrifice on the cross at Calvary was to reconcile/redeem mankind with Father God (Isaiah 44:6, 2 Corinthians 5:18, Psalm 31:5).
Now here is only a sample of a salvation prayer for those that really don’t know how to pray but honestly, you can say it however you want to with all sincerity just asking him into your heart and we must say it out loud because we must allow Him in. Saying it in your head is not the same. He won’t force Himself on you. You can just talk one on one with Him and it can be done anywhere. Actually the best way is just being alone while doing it. Just go to your room, lay down, relax and open up your heart and let nothing distract you. Shut your tv off, your phone off. So for all those that need help how to say this here is a sample of it. I actually returned to God by saying a sinners prayer and many condemn it saying it’s not in the Bible. Sinners prayer is only a stepping stone to help someone start the journey with God. Stop picking it all apart and if I was not led by someone to say it, I would still be lost. Remember, that this begins a new way of life for you and that means change on your end. He will help you along the way!! In my own life, after I said this I started wanting to sing to God, was curious as to what the Bible was about. You see when you truly repent, your “eyes are opened” and you start to see how much satan lied to you, deceived you. I never even gave satan any thought; didn’t even know he existed until my eyes were opened and started seeing through God’s eyes. It was truly amazing and I will be forever grateful He loves me that much that He wanted me back with Him, to show me how I was tricked by the enemy, satan! Forever grateful He never once gave up on me but it was me that was ignoring Him, running from myself, from life. I was in bondage to the devil and his ways and didn’t even realize it. My life continues to get better and better and it’s all because of what Yeshua did for us on that tree in Calvary. This is when I found out what true love is!! Find out for yourself! Talk to Him!
We can’t keep running my friends. It is too hard to bear the burdens of life alone!
