23 Minutes in Hell by Bill Wiese



I borrowed this book from a friend at church (thanks Roz) and let me tell you it packs a powerful punch. The author tells of his personal experience and backs everything with Scripture. From what I've read in the Bible his description of hell sounds accurate. It is definitely a place I want to avoid.

Romans 5:8 tells us that Jesus died for us while we were yet sinners. His sacrifice makes it possible for us to live eternally with HIM and to leave hell for those it was created for the devil and his fallen angels.

Ephesians 2:8-9
reminds us that we are all saved by grace and not one of us can boast that our merits or works saved us.


Back of Books Says:
"My sincere hope is that THIS BOOK IS THE CLOSEST YOU WILL EVER COME TO EXPERIENCING HELL FOR YOURSELF."
Bill Wiese saw the searing flames of hell, felt total isolation, and experienced the putrid and rotting stench, deafening screams of agony, terrorizing demons, and finally, the strong hand of God lifting him out of the pit.
Wiese's visit to the devil's lair lasted just twenty-three minutes, but he returned with vivid details etched in his memory. Since this life-changing ordeal, he has spent the last seven years studying the Scriptures to find answers and has listed more than 150 Bible verses referencing hell.
Everyone is curious about the aferlife, and now Wiese shares his insights to commonly asked questions such as:
* Is Hell a literal burning place?
* Where is Hell?
* Do you have a body in Hell?
* Are there degrees of punishment in Hell?
* Are there children in Hell?
* Can demons torment people in Hell?
* Can "good" people go to Hell?


"Even if you don't believe my story, I hope you will believe the Scriptures and avoid hell just the same."
Check your local library or bookstore for this book that could change what you think about hell and guide you along the path to alter your eternal destiny.
