Personally.... I am universalist and I do believe that the Ancient of Days the Father and the Shekina Glory of G-d, the Holy Spirit and the Spirit of Moshiach stored in Gan Eden are working on plans to bring everybody to repentance. https://www.near-death.com/experiences/exceptional/christian-andreason.html#a04h Rabbi Friedman - The Soul and the Afterlife: Where Do We Go From Here? But... .in order to go to heaven and / or bring paradise to this earth we cannot be in the mind set and personality disorder patterns of demons! https://www.near-death.com/experiences/exceptional/george-ritchie.html#a05d
One of the larger conflicts between Christians and Jews is that we Christians have terribly misunderstood the actual goals of Messiah the Passover Lamb Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus. The Personality of Mashiach By J. Immanuel Schochet
Rabbi Friedman after the sixteen minute mark in his lecture states that Shame.... is like the fires of hell.... I do think that he has an excellent point there! Near death experiencer Christian Andreason was shown: https://www.near-death.com/experiences/exceptional/christian-andreason.html#a14
I have came to believe that near death experience accounts, that contain a genuine Life Review with Jesus..... are an important part of the fulfillment of this promise in our time period. John 16:25 ¶ These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father. Former Skeptic Howard Storm was shown that every word in Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and the minor prophets about the millennium will come to pass soon. https://www.near-death.com/religion/christianity/howard-storm.html#a04
I am really glad to hear the Alex and Kevin Malarkey near death experience account talked about here. Near-Death Experiences: A New Interpretation
" We do that now here on planet Earth. Those stuck in addiction, lust, bitterness and hate -- these are the ones truly in hell. " ~ Ain't that the truth ...
I believe in Jesus because Christian morals are consistent with things that are common sense and givens, about respect for right and right, about respecting oneself and others. https://answersingenesis.org/family/sexuality-broken-redeemed/
I think people should focus on the Bible and not on near death experiences. The Bible is the Word of God, and God speaks to us through His Word. I believe that a lot of near death experience stories are false teachings because they confirm beliefs that are not in accordance with the Bible. Only God knows if they are real, and we shouldnt focus on near death experience stories-we should focus on knowing God more and more. https://www.gotquestions.org/near-death-experiences.html
I believe that the Jews have misunderstood the concept of who the Messiah is. The Messiah isnt just a political figure, he is the Creator and the Savior, who died for the iniquity of us all. The Bible says that the Messiah will be rejected by His own people, and the Jews during the time of Yeshua and the Jews today believe that the Messiah is simply a poltical figure, but the Isaiah in the Messianic prophecies says that all of us are like sheep gone astray and we need a Savior. Isaiah 53: 5-7. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. https://www.oneforisrael.org/bible-...messiah-suffering-servant-or-victorious-king/
I dont think universalism is bibical teaching. Why would Jesus die for the sins of the world and have said that He is the way, the truth, and the life? https://www.gotquestions.org/universalism.html
I don't agree with people who say they can interpret the end times or have seen visions of it. First of all because they all different. Secondly, if God wanted us to know the details He would have told us Himself. He didn't make the Bible as some sort of riddle we have to figure out. Revelations is there to conclude His story just like Genesis is there to begin it. Both are irrelevant other than to add context. If you are a Christian you know what is coming will be good and what form that takes doesn't matter. I also do not worry about those in Hell as it's not my place to be concerned with them. The things God wants us to understand are made very clear and that should be the focus of the Christian. Still, it is impossible to be human and not wonder about your afterlife as that is essentially what motivates us. I like to think God doesn't turn us into robot's and makes us walk around like zombies in a love fest but I like to think that Heaven is tailored to the individual. I know many people probably going to Heaven, many family, that I absolutely cannot stand and would have no desire to spend eternity with so if God makes me just like them then I have no free will. If He doesn't then Heaven will not be filled with joy for me so I am curious to see how He handles that. I would love to go see right now but I think God has some plan to use me for something so I will stick around for that apparently lol. Finding out what happens to us is the single biggest mystery I want to uncover.
