Heaven Is Real

 

A book by Choo Thomas

A Book by Todd Burpo

Colton, son of Todd Burpo, October 2022-3yrs old

Read these two books recently.  I read Heaven is for real first.  Colton had an experience of encountering heaven during his emergency appendectomy.  He met Jesus and his grandfather and even his miscarriage sister.  Sonja, Colton's mother, never told him about the miscarriage sister at all, but after the surgery, Colton was able to recount about the miscarriage sister, grandfather and Jesus.  

In the book, there is even a picture of Jesus.

Prince of Peace, by Akiane Kramarik

Akiane Kramarik was a young Lithuanian-American girl who lived in Idaho.  He had 'visions' of heaven at the age of four.  Her descriptions of heaven were same as Colton.  

The next book about Heaven is by Choo Thomas, a Korean American.  He met Jesus for the first time in February 1992. Choo Thomas had many heavenly encounters with Jesus where she visited different places of Heaven.  Whenever Jesus came to her, her body would shake.  Jesus wanted her to write this book for people to know about Him.  Through this book I had learned that my aborted baby is with Jesus!  So I have 4 children!

As quoted from the book:

Jesus and The Children:  Even when children are at a very young age, the Spirit of God seeks to save them.  Any parents who know God's word and don't teach it to their children or bring them to church are guilty of grave sins.  

Those women who have had abortions or mothers whose children died before the age of seven need to know that these children are all with our Lord Jesus in His kingdom.  It doesn't matter whether the children's parents are believers or unbelievers; they're still with Jesus.  Whoever comes to the kingdom of heaven will see any lost children they may have had.  I put all these things in this book because the Lord wants me to.

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.  My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.  You know the way to the place where I am going.”  John 14: 1-4

Door to Heaven

It was not raining.  The sky was bright.  I was going to post about my vaccination yesterday.  Before that, I was reading email.  I came to the bulletin of Church of St Anthony of Padua.  As I was looking at the message below:

 The door to heaven and key to paradise is through the cross

The centrality of the Gospel message is the cross - but fortunately it does not stop there. Through the cross Jesus defeated our enemies - death and Satan and won pardon for our sins. His cross is the door to heaven and the key to paradise. The way to glory is through the cross. When the disciples saw the risen Lord they disbelieved for joy! How can death lead to life, the cross to victory? Jesus shows us the way and he gives us the power to overcome sin and despair, and everything else that would stand in the way of his love and truth. Just as the first disciples were commissioned to bring the good news of salvation to all the nations, so, we, too, are called to be witnesses of the resurrection of Jesus Christ to all who live on the face of the earth. Do you witness the joy of the Gospel to those around you?

This week is the third week of Easter.  The Scripture in the bulletin is from Luke 24:35-48:

Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread. As they were saying this, Jesus himself stood among them. But they were startled and frightened, and supposed that they saw a spirit. And he said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do questionings rise in your hearts? See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have." And while they still disbelieved for joy, and wondered, he said to them, "Have you anything here to eat?" They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate before them. Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled." Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things.

There was a loud thunder just as I was reading the passage Door to Heaven.  The electricity tripped.  Everyone was so surprised.  There was no rain at all.  Until now, the sky was fine, no rain until now.  And no more thunder now as I was typing the post.  

Today is the 81th day my father had passed on.  I myself was 'resurrected', I experienced it.  Is this a sign to tell me that father is really in heaven now?  I am sure he is, for he is such a kind and generous person.  

My second uncle was not so fortunate.  He had a sudden death and died in the ambulance.  There was no last prayer, no anointing of the sick.  His cause of death was coronary artery disease.  I helped him to call a priest to offer him prayer and was able to notify the priest at Church of St Anthony to go there one evening, on the Thursday night.  Our Lord is merciful.  I am sure uncle Anthony will be in heaven too.
