Read my story by ordering my book, “Possess the Vision”
A JOURNEY TO GOLGOTHA
In my prior postings I have told you about a severe medical condition that resulted in my admittance to an intensive care unit with a life threatening pancreases problem. It was there that I left my body behind and traveled through space and time, having not idea where I was going. This posting is the continuation of this story.
I continued to look around as I traveled through space and time. I noticed that there was a slightly larger object than the rest in the stars ahead. As I approached this object I noticed that its shape was different as well. It was not spherical like the stars, but I could not as yet make out its shape.
Suddenly, a strange and repulsive odor arrived. It was faint at first, and I found myself sniffing in an effort to identify what it was. Then, the awful odor hit me full strength like a wave crashing onto the shore. Its stench overwhelmed and choked me. It was then that I realized that odor was decaying human flesh. The smell of death was making me sick.
Then I started to hear sounds again. They also were faded at first and seemed almost melodic. I tried to identify the sounds were but could not. However, I noticed that they seemed to be getting louder as I approached the strange object before me. Then suddenly, a chill ran through me as I recognized the sound. It was the sound of a mass of people wailing in torment and agony. It was the sound of thousands or perhaps millions of souls simultaneously crying out in pain and despair. It was the perpetual song of torment that invaded me. It evoked in me a very depressing and gut wrenching feeling of agony and despair.
I looked up again to check my heading. I could see that I was still moving rapidly toward the now larger, white object in space. I also noticed that my s-curves were seemingly larger as I approached. One thing was certain now—I was heading directly toward this thing, what ever it was.
I soon realized that both the putrid odor and wailing sounds were coming from it. I continued watching the object as I meandered through space. The image grew larger until I saw what I wished that I did not. It was a gigantic, degenerated human skull floating in space without a body.
The cranium still contained bits of flesh and hair in various places. But, in general, it was seriously deteriorated and decayed. Parts of the face had no skin but revealed the underlying muscle and ligaments. In other areas of the face, the muscle and ligaments were gone and revealed the bony structure of the skull. The jaw area had completely deteriorated and exposed the teeth and jawbones that seemed to project an evil smirk. The right eye was missing; it was from here that the sounds and the stench escaped. These awful things were coming from deep inside the skull.
I continued moving closer to the skull of death and as I did, I was amazed at its enormous size. Still traversing in sine wave pattern, the ship’s movement from side to side now took me from one edge of the skull to the other. Soon afterward, all I could see before me was the skull and yet my momentum continued to carry me forward in an obvious collision course. I saw the skull grow in size as I rapidly approached. It was then that I knew just how small and insignificant I was.
I approached even closer until all I could see was the open eye socket before me as I slithered my way toward this “place of the skull” or Golgotha.
John 19:16 – 18 Then he delivered Him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led Him away. And He, bearing His cross, went out to a place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha, here they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the center.
I continued forward, entering the open eye socket and watching as it engulfed me. I got a close up view of the remnants of ligaments and tissues inside the eye socket.
And yet I continued steadily forward, moving now into total darkness. Even in complete obscurity I continued on until I entered through an open passageway that I could not see. For now my journey was over. I wondered what might lie ahead.
So my journey into the spiritual realm had begun. My travels took me to the place of spiritual death. The spiritual equivalent of Golgotha, or the place of the skull, the place they killed Jesus. The journey was not over however. I had just entered the passage way to the Lake of Fire, which has been described as the second death in the book of Revelation. Our next posting will cover my experiences there in detail.
Until then, may Gods blessings be upon you.
Read my amazing true life story about how the forces of good and evil battle for my life and the vision that God has given me. My book, “Possess the Vision,” communicates my supernatural experiences and as a result, provides insight into the realm of the spiritual warfare that is raging for our souls and our purpose. This is a must read for all Christians. Learn more by following this link: Possess-the-Vision-at-Amazon
UM i have a comment that i would like to share, the place of the skull is a real place in the world, it is a hill where Jesus was crucified, and if you would remember that once jesus was on the cross one of the sinners said to him “i believe that you are the son of God” Jesus said beck “today you will be with me in paradise.” Hell is a physical place thatonce we endur judgement if w have accepted christ as our savior he cleanss us and makes us new, he is like the high priest in the tabernacle the high priest takes us to the mercy seat of god. Hell is a physical place of utter dspair and sorrow it is complete seperation and loss of everything where you are tormnted day and night, im sorry to say that if you did as you say, and you entered the place of Golotha it would mean that you would have had to pass through judgment and have already been fully seperated from body, and bibically you would have not been able to return. Please read the book THE CASE FOR FAITH & THE CASE FOR CHRIST, you will s how deep the understanding of reporter Lee Strobel sees Hell. again i am only a junior higher but i have had very strong bible training and have researched and read the bible many times. email me @ love4hope4ever@gmail.com
P.S. i have enjoyed many of your other posts especially about the tabernacle.
thx ~hope
Interestingly, I did go before God and have reported by judgment seat experiences here in these blogs. The interesting part is that many talk about Hell but few talk about the pit of fire that is mentioned in the book of Revelation. If I recall correctly, Hell is cast into the pit of fire. So as you can then see these are two seperate places. The interesting part is that In my out of body experience, that I traveled to the Pit of Fire but then was removed and transported to the halls of Hell. I was then removed from Hell and then transported to the Judgment Seat of Christ. All of this removal and appearing was accomplished by vanishing from one place and then appearing in another.
On the Judgment Seat of Christ I appealed to God, asking for things that had been missing in my life and promising to do better. I was returned to earth where I was bonbarded by spiritual attacks that kept me in the hospital for almost three months. These attacks continued for years only ending in my surrender to God.
I am sorry that you think that I must be seperated from God because of my experience. I can tell you with certainty that if it were not for God I would not be here but rather in the anguish of Hell and the Pit of Fire.
These places exist but they are spiritual places. The warfare that the devil unleashes against us is Spiritual Warfare. We are spiritual beings encapsulated in our human bodies for a time of testing. This is the reason we are here. Jesus died for our sins but yet we are sill here. This proves that we still have work to do, otherwise we would be with Him in paridise. It is for this reason that I have been returned to life. My perfection has yet to be completed.
Thanks for writing.
