    After listening to her testimony, I don't think there's any doubt about whether she's a real Christian.

    I agree. I was blessed by her testimony.

    Having problems with my Cromecast so I haven't watched the video yet, but as I'm not an evangelist, yet, I'm not sure if that will come into play.

    But I am reminded of the Berenans who "were more noble-minded ... for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so."

    This pic I saw only yesterday seems relevant:

    Really not sure what you're trying to say..... that I'm not capable of identifying a true testimony of a Christian sister???

    As I haven't watched the video (hoping to start that in a minute) no, not at all.

    All I'm saying is that we can only go by what we know.

    I listened and don't think I heard her say anything that could be supported by Scripture.

    She may have quoted a verse early on but after that, no Scripture.

    She said that God said to spread the Gospel. Does she? Not here, no mention of the Cross, or sin, or repentance. Jesus is never mentioned.

    She said some "funny" things, but the one about all babies being in heaven and that's a reason to go to there probably takes the cake.

    Is she a Christian? People probably thought Jon Steingard is/was one. Say the right words, do the right things ..... In my work I come across people every week who "think" they're Christians because they're told they are. Probably 95% are hell bound.

    thanks for the video Nikos.

    AJ, I agree she seems to be an authentic believer. I'm still a bit concerned that no where, once, did she talk about Jesus. That may be in a later part of her talk that they didn't post.. but, it's still a problem for me.

    but that might just be my problem.

    So if she had, would you be more inclined to believe it? I think the real problem may be you just don't think anybody goes to heaven and comes back so you using the lack of Jesus' name being used to question it. Have either one of you ever heard a 'going to heaven story' that you didn't question and believed to be true? I don't know about femme, but from other posts from you Oz I would think you don't believe in this kind of thing period.

    As I asked a couple of days ago while pointing out some glaring questionables fuego "We know the Bible is 100% correct and it is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness (2Tim 3:16) so taking what has been reported at face value, comparing it to what we know to be true from the Bible, what rating out of 10 would you give it for actually being a visit to heaven?"

    As I also said 'I am reminded of the Berenans who "were more noble-minded ... for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so."'

    It has been said, and there is agreement to "
    After listening to her testimony, I don't think there's any doubt about whether she's a real Christian". But that is irrelevant. I'm a Christian but I lie, and cheat, and intentionally rebel against God, and lots of other sins, daily. What is important is "examining the Scriptures ... to see whether these things were so" and although I've asked no one seems to have done that.

    Is this "sound doctrine" or "ear tickling" (
    2 Timothy 4:3) feugo?

    Now such things are not new and here's something I was told as a young Roman Catholic and I believed because, well because the Nuns told me, it sounded good, and I knew no better.

    The following story is described thus:

    "
    It is certainly not a treatise on theology but, imperfections aside, it reflects how much Our Mother strives to help us reach out to Jesus — even when it is so hard for us to persevere in virtue."

    The Story:

    It is said that St. Peter was once troubled when he noticed the presence of several souls whom he did not remember having let in through the doors of Heaven. He then began to investigate, and finally found the place they were sneaking in through.

    He went diligently to the Lord and said to him,

    "Jesus, I realized that we have several souls here that I do not remember letting in. I did some investigations and found out where they are coming from. I would like you to see it for yourself, if you don't mind."

    Jesus, with all serenity, accompanied Peter and observed that, in fact, there was an entrance through which an impressive number of souls was constantly ascended to Heaven.

    Still somewhat alarmed, St. Peter suggested:

    "Should not we close this entrance, Lord?"

    Jesus, smiling and even delighted with the scene, replied:

    "No, no ... Leave it alone. This is Mama's thing!"

    Mary had left a huge rosary hanging from a window, and through it a multitude of souls were climbing steadily up to Heaven.

    (Closing remark from the article) "It is no wonder that when we ourselves close the doors of Paradise with the bars of sin, Mary opens a window form us, so that we can always have a second (and third, and fourth) chance."


    You know the one about St. Peter investigating how souls were entering Heaven without his permission?
