Bible verse on death
Revelation 14:13Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them."
When my father was ill at age 88, I did not know that it was his last day. When I visited him, his arms were cold, he could not speak. i tried to talk to him about asking for forgiveness from God, and forgiving the people who have hurt him. and if a deceased relative comes to visit him, it is not the dead relative but it is the devil duplicating the image of the dead relative and to say to the evil spirit: In .Jesus name, disappear.. After 30 minutes I saw him took his last breath, the same scenario as my mother on her death bed.
I regret not having done the same to my mother, as I was still a baby spiritually.
She was a loving mother, took care of us, her ten children., but these are just a few of God's will. Foremost is loving God above all else and our brethren. God cannot forgive us if we ourselves cannot forgive the people who have hurt us.
Was I successful in imparting the message to my father? I do not know, because he did not respond verbally. I pray to GOD that he did, mentally, as GOD could hear our thoughts.
He may be in purgatory for cleansing of sins, although forgiven, a sinner has to pass purgation. We have to pray for souls in purgatory so that they will be elevated to higher level and be ready for heaven. The souls are crying for prayers. They cannot pray for themselves. They have to rely for prayers from persons still on earth.

Signs of Dying, Heaven and Hell, Spirits come to Pick Souls Immediately after Dying
"I became critically ill. I was bedridden for several days and could not eat. Although my wife took care of me as best as she could, my condition became worse. Realizing that I might not live long, she quickly informed my family members, relatives and friends to visit and see me for the last time. They came and visited me as soon as they heard about my condition.
On 13 August, about 7 pm, I gradually felt in my body that my blood circulation was not normal. It was Sunday and all my family members, relatives and friends had gone to church for
evening worship service except my wife. My wife was then falling asleep as she was physically exhausted.
I experienced tremendous physical change in my body step by step. I was very anxious and I thought, “Oh! Today is my last day. I am about to die soon.” I intended to wake my wife up to say my last words to her but I changed my mind as I did not want her to feel sad. My toes started to feel cold. Soon, my legs, fingers and my whole body were gradually turning cold. I tried to move but could not. In my mind, I said to myself,” Look! My body has become
immobile. I cannot move my eyes. My mouth is tightly closed. It cannot be opened!” Then, I sensed that this was not ordinary cold. These were the signs of dying. I could not resist death.
However, I knew where I would be going. I would be in heaven! Looking at my wife, I took pity on her as she would be alone for the rest of her life. So I prayed to God to take care of her for her entire life. I committed my life in God’s hands in the name of Jesus.
After a while, I saw cluster of dark clouds descending from the sky. (Though there was a roof on top of me, I could actually see the sky through it.) The dark clouds were approaching me. They landed and stopped above my bed about three feet away. At that very moment, my soul left my body.
Going to heaven and hell
towards the sky and shouted, “Angels! Please protect my body immediately.” Thank God that although I had never known how angels looked like, they appeared when I shouted. Five angels came down immediately from heaven to guard my body. At the same time, the demons, which gathered around my body, disappeared instantly I suddenly remembered what was mentioned in the Bible ‘Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister to those who will inherit salvation’ (Hebrews 1:14).
After that, I looked what was ahead of me. I saw a place burning with large flames of fire.It was horrific! From the fire, I heard thousands of lost souls crying out, “Please save us! This place is too much for us to bear and we are in great pain and suffering.” When I saw them, my heart was overwhelmed with sorrow. Suddenly, I heard a voice from heaven saying, “This is hell!” I had read about the existence of hell in the Bible. I now saw the place ‘hell’ with my very own eyes and it was real. I wondered why these souls were suffering in such a terrible place. The lord knew my heart and said, “When they were alive in the world, they did not accept me as their Lord. After they passed away, they were immediately brought to this place.” Then I saw a big black hole. It was very deep and filled with powerful unquenchable flames. It looked very frightening. A voice spoke to me, “This is the bottomless pit where the devil will be bound one day.”
When I looked down at the world from a high altitude, I saw people going and coming forth, working and sleeping, eating and spending but they were never content in their lives. This led to frustration and ended with miseries and sufferings. The world is really not a good place to live. I felt deeply grieved in my heart for the suffering world and uncontrollable tears were rolling down my cheeks.
I then saw angels flying up and down from the heaven to the world praising God. Next, I saw a strong beam of light from heaven. An angel took me into heaven. When I entered heaven, surprisingly I saw thousands of saints. They wore white robes and were singing, “Hallelujah! Amen! Praise the Lord!” They welcomed me warmly for my arrival to heaven. It really touched me. When I was in the world, no one respected or paid attention to me because I was just an ordinary farmer.
The scripture recorded that “Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” (Luke 15:10). It was absolutely true. I was filled with complete joy. Every one in heaven was joyful. I then realized that there was
no sadness, pain, distress, hunger or fatigue in heaven. Heaven was a place filled with the glory of God.
One can live generally about 70 to 80 years in this world. No one can decide how long he wants to live. It is a very short period of time in the sight of God. The most important thing in a person’s life is to know where his soul will be going to after death.
People are working hard for their lives for selfish gain but eventually this will lead to emptiness.They are not concerned about the need to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. At the end of their lives, their souls will be tormented in hell eternally without Jesus.
Heaven is full of joy and peace and it is definitely good place to live in. No words can be used to describe how wonderful heaven is. When I looked around in heaven, there are no sun, stars and moon but every place is shining with the light of God. The place
was not hot. I felt my body and spirit both being strengthened by the light of God.
Although my parents, my wife and siblings were still alive in the world, I did not wish to go back to the world because I had been separated from the painful and suffering world. It was difficult for me to express in words how a man feels in the realm of happiness.
The Lord Jesus Christ suddenly appeared and gave me a gift box. I bowed down before the Lord to receive it. When I looked up, he had already disappeared. Then an angel took me to a place whereby I could see my reflection on the road.
The Bible mentioned that the road in heaven is made of gold. I saw with my own eyes that it was true. The Bible still remains valid and relevant though it was written thousand of years ago. It records and writes about creation; hell; past, present and future events. It reveals to people that salvation is found in Jesus. It is not the idea of any great man or philosopher.
Every word in the Bible is true. Jesus said,” I am the
way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
Dear friends, God repatriated me from heaven because He wanted me to share with you what I had seen in heaven and hell. Heaven and hell do exist. May God judge me if I had lied or deceived you in any way!
It is the desire of God for everyone to believe in Jesus Christ so as to receive salvation. He does not want anyone to spend eternity in the lake of fire. Therefore, I urge you again to carefully take heed of this testimony.
When I was walking on the golden road in heaven, I saw a bright house made of beautiful jewels. No house in this world can be compared with it. I was captivated by what I saw. Just then, I heard the voice of Jesus saying, “This house is for you, I will let
you live here forever.” Oh, I was excited! It is my eternal home!
Then I rushed towards the house and searched for the entrance door to get in. But Jesus said, “No, Yong Thang. It is not your time yet. There are still many people out there who have not accepted me. You must go and warn those who are not saved so that they will not end up in the lake of fire. The day for Me to come to the world is drawing near. I will come real soon I hope the hearts of many people will be changed. . by then and they will accept me through your testimony.” Although I was very reluctant
to return to the world, I could not disobey Him.
Returning to the world
candle to look at me. My body was still cold because I had been dead for ten hours. She thought that I had passed away and started crying loudly. As a result, everybody at home and my neighbors rushed in and stood around me. Some were sobbing. I felt
great sorrow and started weeping. Then my body gradually became warm. They realized that I was still alive and were comforted. My wife delightfully came over to attend to me. She fed me with some food and water.
It was about 5:00 am and the sky was already bright. I had died for 10 hours from 7:00 pm to the next morning 5: 00 am. I could not forget the horror of hell and the beauty of heaven which I had seen. It was not a dream or illusion. Although that incident happened 20 years ago, it was still vivid in my mind as if it just happened yesterday.
Therefore, I write this testimony in order to share with the whole world that people may know Jesus Christ and accept Him as their personal Savior and Lord.
After recuperating, my wife and I went to share the gospel from one place to another. We also studied in a Bible school so as to learn more about God’s word.
