An Unbelievable Journey to Heaven and Hell
A Romanian man describes his amazing experience of experiencing both paradise and hell in an engrossing YouTube video. He talks about how he saw “a magnificent gate that perfectly reflected his own body” and came to the conclusion that “the soul receives a new form while the body decays in the ground.” He was led by angels and felt unfathomable bliss and weightlessness in heaven.
A list of his transgressions was shown to him, but he was also informed that “a place in heaven had been prepared for him and his loved ones.” When he saw his parents, who had passed away, the angels told him to give his father some time to rest. His spiritual rebirth was witnessed by his mother. The guy observed that the angels and Jesus both had “a radiant brightness” about them and that they were both without wings and dressed in “immaculate white clothing, with hair as white as snow.”
He witnessed a passage of flames in hell and many souls calling out for assistance. “All his sins, as vast as the sands of the sea, were forgiven through the blood of His beloved son, Jesus,” a massive figure of God assured him. His wife woke up at a morgue, expecting to get ready for his funeral, and was shocked to see him still alive.
Everyone is urged to choose salvation before the grace period expires by this story, which serves as a reminder that salvation and redemption are always achievable.
