I am a bit skeptical when people claim they were in hell and yet were allowed to return from there.

Dare not limit God, or mock men of God doing the good Lord Jesus Christ's work.

Was Bill Wiese already saved when he went to hell? Wikipedia says he was a Christian since 1970s.

How dare I express doubt into authenticity of a story about a personal experience of another man that you or I have no way to prove.

P.S. I mocked nobody, I'm just saying it's hard for me personally to believe that people can come back from hell because I have nothing in the Bible to lean that on. If that makes you offended that's up to you, I objectively did nothing to cause offense, nor did I even claim it didn't happen.

One thing I do know for sure that often these kinda things make people more devoted in ther hearts to God at times and even have a greater desire to witness to the lost.Its a bit like when the passion of christ came out..it had such an impact..
I am sure the last thing satan wants is Christian's being more committed to God ect so it makes me wander if this is from the devil then he's divined against himself..coz it would in many cases bring others closer to God and further away from him.. jesus did menton that satan's isnt divided with himself..
I guess only God knows about this mans testimony..it is disturbing and does kinda sober the mind...which I know satan would never want me to be feeling from hearing this.Maybe it is true..either way the result it has on peoples lives bears witness to it.
I personally Do belive that hell exists coz of certain things I went Through when I back slid many years ago.
If what he says is true..then may my soul weep for a million years for the fact that such a fate awaits the lost.😔

I didn't mention the devil, but like you said only God knows what happened here. It's usually hard to share personal experience of spiritual nature with others (I don't mean it's hard to speak, but it's hard to really get it across because it's an intimate experience) unless you can really strongly back it up with the Bible or if you're close to the person who lived it. Either way, glory to God.

I agree with you in that I am also skeptical regarding him visiting hell! I read that book when it first came out. First of all, we know that by Hell, he wasn't speaking about Gehenna, i.e. the lake of fire, because no one has yet gone there and I doubt that it has solid ground as he described it. Therefore, Hades would have to be the place that he was referring to. However, regarding the information found regarding Hades in the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31), when the rich man requested of Abraham to have Lazarus resurrected so that he could warn his five brothers, he was not able to leave there. Abraham said that they could be warned through reading Moses and the prophets, i.e. by reading the word of God. Later he appeared with Pat Roberson on the 700 club and I did a forehead slap when Pat asked Bill, "While you were down there, did you see any lake of fire?" According to Jesus (Matt.11:23) and the rest of scripture, Hades, also translated as 'hell' is down under the earth which is a holding place of torment in flame until the great white throne judgment. In opposition, the lake of fire is the final place of punishment for all whose names not found written in the book of life, which is a different place altogether.

Oh my comments wasn't a direct response in that sense to what you said earlier.I was just mentioning the devil to illustrate that he wouldn't do things to deliberately Get people passionate about reaching out more to the loss and even going closer to God ect.Thats the last thing he wants to happen...so it always make a one kinda wander some what...
But life we both mentioned....only God knows...😊.... Those who has actually died,buried ect..hasn't come back in that sense and tell us what really happens..yet it does make one appreciate being saved all the more.🙏🙏👌👌

I will not defend myself or my true words against anyone who does not want to be rebuked and corrected towards the wisdom, light, truth and love of the Holy Trinity.

Enough said; thanks, praise and glory be to God in Jesus Christ's harvesting name.

As you can see from the comments here many are not saying the content of the clip you posted isn't true.Expressions of scepticism yes for some..but it's not directed at you in any way and doesn't mean in any way you are wrong or that it was wrong to share this.
I have seen this clip many months ago and it is so disturbing to know that such a place may exist (bible says test the spirit)...and over the years I have come across various Christian's accounts of being shown hell..even the harrowing story of someone who was going to hell after they died and miraculously God gave then a second chance.
The well known book'divine revelation of hell"..is also extremely disturbing to read.
In my comments I said many times that if it wasn't from God then the guy sharing it would be either deceived by the enemie or would of made it up...if he made it up..he would be sinning agsinst God and if it was a demonic deception then the enemies plan would of backfired as the impact is people getting serious with God and having a stronger desire to witness..
So i would never dismiss this as being untrue...and others here haven't either

I have this book and I totally believe every word. He has Scriptures to back up everything he experienced. Years ago on TBN, Dr Eby, also says Jesus 'esscorted' him to hell to reveal how real it is and to warn those listening. Many do try and deny the existence of hell, so I can see why God would do this.
I have no problem and won't argue with anyone who doesn't believe these testimonies. btw.

Bill Wiese is one of many people who have had near death experiences. A lot of doctors have heard stories of near death experiences from patients.

A quick online search shows that details of the afterlife vary greatly even among Christians who experienced near death experience.

I can't say if Bill Weise really went to hell; he definitely had some sort of experience.

Just fyi, Bill Wiese didn't have a near-death experience. When he was either in bed or on the couch, (I know for sure that he said when he came back to his body it was on the couch) and according to him, his spirit/soul ejected out of his body down into Hell/Hades. I don't believe that in his story that he says he was near death, but healthy.

John 3:27-36
27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. 28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. 29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
31 He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all. 32 And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony. 33 He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. 34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him. 35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. 36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

I will try to post the link as text. This is the one; what I wanted to do. Third time's a blessing.

Put my heart on/in my hands, Lord Jesus Christ, search me and put me in order.
