A vision of torment where people who once professed faith in Christ are depicted as suffering because they abandoned their commitment to God, embraced worldliness, or engaged in unrepentant sin. The account portrays Christians lamenting that they neglected their salvation and highlights examples such as idolatry, false conversion, compromising biblical standards, and prioritizing pleasing people over pleasing God. Through scenes involving religious images, worldly wedding practices, and public scandal, the testimony emphasizes perseverance in faith, holiness, repentance, and the importance of living in a way that honors God rather than conforming to worldly desires.
I was tired of these visits to hell. That's how I came to ask the angel if we could return because I was exhausted. He told me, "We will continue our journey." A striking phrase that would intrigue me and peak my curiosity. He said this, "Brother, now we will go and visit the chamber of regretting Christian. They were with us." They tasted the hands of heaven, but lacked persistence in the true faith. They began to choose and love the world and its glory. They used their faith to live in sin. I said, "What's this all about?" Regretting Christians, can the Lord still abandon his children? He who redeemed them after saving them by his grace.
The angel will answer me by saying, "No, the redemption and the work of the cross is perfect." I reminded him of a biblical passage. God's love was revealed while we were still sinners. Christ died for us. I said to the angel, "Do you remember this scripture? God has revealed his love, how can someone who can be a Christian still find themselves in this place?" Astonished by hearing this, how come deceased Christians who accepted the Lord on earth, walked with the Lord, and lived with the Lord still fall in this place? The angel said, "Yes, you're right. God's love was shown to you while you were still sinners. Christ died for you. God's love was shown to us in this. God sent his one and only son into the world so that we might live through him. But God is just. God judges each person with justice and fairness. The righteous who turn away from God and return to their sinful lives will be held accountable for the sins in which they die. If they do not repent, they cannot rely on their past righteous deeds."
I only asked where this prison is because I couldn't bear it any longer. I wanted to see with my own eyes the profound reality of what happened in this prison. He told me it was in the same region. So in the same region as the condemned family. So as we were walking through the mud, we encountered phosphorescent creatures walking on the road on the paths and we went outside. They were giant creatures passing all around us.
The angel began to explain to me that these people you see are destroyers, destroyers of lives and seers of conflict, seers of misfortune in the lives of men. Their objective in this place was to make the torments even more cruel since the people were consumed by fire and to make the judgment even more cruel as the torment must have been.
Possessing a savagery that surpasses all human comprehension. This region was so chaotic. Death was everywhere. A breathtaking stench filled the atmosphere of this realm. On the path, we began to see corpses lying on the ground, even in the creatures layers, human corpses displayed in this place.
The place was polluted with an utterly overwhelming stench. As the angel continued to explain, a sound began to come from our direction, from the path he followed. It was human voices mixed with cries and the eternal lamentations of tears and pain. Now I couldn't distinguish the various sounds. Couldn't truly understand what this sound meant.
But I understood that it was weeping, people shouting, people crying. The angel will now give me the ability to distinguish each sound. When he opened my ears, I could now hear various voices speaking through these various sounds.
CHRISTIANS IN H3LL
As we now approach this region, I could hear clearly and deeply a voice saying, "We are all here. Is there no one that can hear us and get us out of here? We are Christians. We are disciples of Christ. But here we are approached and sentenced for having neglected such a great salvation. What a pity. What a loss. Oh, pity." Their words filled with eternal regret continue to echo in my ears. That voice kept shouting. "We are here. Is there someone out there to get us out of here? We are here. We are all Christians."
I could hear the piercing sound of the words of despair and the lamentable cries of these lost men constantly claiming their belonging to Christ pierced and touched my heart deeply. These words pierced my heart deeply because I am also a Christian.
But hearing my fellow Christians cries in this place, I felt an unbearable weight upon me. I couldn't go on any longer. I started to cry. I had lost all feeling of continuing. These people were working for Christ in their life. But they mocked grace. They took God's grace lightly. When they were crying, I still felt that weight within me. I remembered at that time when I was fervent in this gospel that say that a Christian cannot lose their salvation even if they have compromised themselves in their ways and that the work of the cross was so much greater. But Hebrews 10:39 say, "We are not of those who shrink back to perish, but of those who have faith to the saving of their souls."
I felt the pain there as I remember falsehoods of once saved always saved was passed on to people as assurance of salvation. But this passage says, "We are not the ones who withdraw to lose themselves." Brother I remembered in the past twisting the scriptures at that time brandishing false truths by telling people that a Christian cannot lose their soul. I felt the loss of those people who said we were all Christians here. We can be here. Someone must get us out.
The angel understood my deep emotion and said to me they have no chance. They are our brothers but they have no chance. I asked my companion angel, saying, "And you, can't you do something for these souls?" He said, "Only the one who came down from heaven, descended to earth, and died on the cross is worthy to save humanity." I said to the angel, "But you and I, can't we do something?" He replied, "We only have the ability to see, and I must give you explanations. But we have no power to save a man here. No one will be saved by us. Be strong. We are approaching as we advance."
ETERNAL DAMNATION WITHOUT CHRIST
We finally arrived in this lubricous place. Eternal damnation of Christians. I saw a rusted gate in a state I cannot describe. It was unbearable to see. The gate was ruined, consumed by fire, placed by the flames. The rust was so remarkable, like old steel destroyed and consumed by flames. But the writing on the gate was still visible. In the middle of the inscription, one could read, "Here are prisoners, all Christians who have not walked properly with the Lord." My companion encouraged me to continue reading what was written to get an overall idea of the main cause of eternal damnation of souls here.
These inscriptions perfectly mentioned each crime and the type of Christian who found themselves in this place. The flame was everywhere. The atmosphere was fire everywhere. They were now flying like the type of demonic bats that entered the flame to eat the flesh of the damned because place was like a dungeon. As we approached, these bat got in to consume parts of human flesh not consumed by fire but were still on the body of this person. My companion told me this is the prison of regretting Christians.
I began to read and first they wrote here detained false Christians, the deserters of the faith. The apostates, the backsliders, the blasphemers of the faith. It was also written the type of sin that led these souls here, all those Christians who engaged in activities not in accordance with the faith, gambling, and theatrical performances. There were several writings on it, those who were baptized without a true conversion, those who lived in duality, those who stumbled through their sins and evil deeds.
Those who had no time for the Lord and never observed God's recommendations and prohibitions, and those who lived in complacency, several details were written on the door. And after enter this prison, we climbed.
Now, when we reached the top of the hill, they were all lined up in a row. It was as if we were looking at the craters of a volcano engulfed in flames. Lava was almost everywhere. There were prison cells made of metal. The remains of thousands upon thousands of men. Many men and women, young and old, found themselves incarcerated in this place.
The ethic was with cries and tears and with unbearable and unsustainable desolation. Despite the flames and this torment, the cells were arranged. The angel began to explain to me that souls of Christian were now classified here by their religious affiliation. He said that this cell was divided. They were classified according to their religious denominations. Here the Pentecostals, the Catholics, the pre-eliterians, the Lutherans, the pilgrims of holiness, the 7th Day Adventists, the Mormons, that is the Latter-day Saints, and so many others. They are also classified according to their crimes and their lives on earth, but also according to their religious denominations. They were with us. They tasted the glory of heaven, but they did not persevere with the Lord.
This region was chaotic. Death was everywhere. The angel told me, "These people have corrupted their voices. They have corrupted themselves on earth. They went the wrong way. Let's go into the flame and you will see what's really happening. You'll get the idea. Hold on to everything you see and tell it to the inhabitants of the earth."
We started going down into the flame. There were paths to pass through and gutters all around each cage where the souls were placed. When we entered the flame, I found a man with a picture of a white man. The man was a bran herist. He was now screaming. Fire was coming out of all his body. His isolation cell which could only be 50 cm above him. There was now the photo hanging on the fiery rod of his cell.
This man was now trying to tear this photo down and say, "I cannot worship you. I cannot leave me, but you are tormenting me." A sound was coming from this photo hanging on the fire rods. The photo repeated this passage of Exodus 20:4. "You shall not make for yourself a carved image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is on the earth beneath or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me."
Now the angel told me, "This man was a branist on earth. He built a large church. He sold these pictures of this white man called Branim so that his followers could also display him on their walls under the pretext that he was Jesus." He placed Branham's picture on the church wall and encouraged people to venerate this man which he claimed to be a picture of Jesus. This representation in the house of God diabolically introduced the faithful into a kind of worship of a false god. He who claimed to preach Jesus but represented Jesus with an image. He was nothing more than a worshipper of the devil. He was none other than the one who leads our brothers and sisters astray from the faith claiming to preach the name of Jesus. No picture can be hung in the middle of the church. Jesus was never represented by a picture or an image.
Besides, he lived in a time when there were no photographs. They took a picture of a white man, began to prostrate themselves, worship him, and claim he was the Lord. This manipulation is a distorted way of seeing things that led him to this place. And he sold sold the same picture to the faithful to display on the walls of their homes. It was the main cause of his idolatry and led him to this place.
When we passed him in the next cell, there was yet another soul who had bought the cross, the very cross that the so-called Jesus is placed on. He had now placed it behind the pulpit in the church representing Jesus on the cross. And after a while, when people came to church on Easter Sunday, they would now have this same cross carried by the faithful. He firmly believed it was a representation. He believed that he died on the cross for us. But he didn't give us the mandate to represent him with anything. It was this image of the cross still placed in his cell that was the cause of his judgment. And this cross was demanding that you not to place it in the house of God. It was the cause of this deviation that led him to this place.
UNGODLY WEDDING AND CEREMONIES
When we passed him when we approached, going a little further, I found a woman. I recognized her as a woman. It was true that she was skeletal, just burnt flesh that was stuck to her body. She seemed to still be wearing a bridal veil, still attached to her body, which continued to burn completely. This woman was trying to get rid of it. It was impossible. In her cell, there was now a television set that continuously replayed the image of her wedding day. Then she cried out, "Stop it! Stop it! I can't take it anymore. I'm tormented. I'm disturbed." The demons continued to mock her, saying, "No, look what you've done. Look, rejoice. This is your place. Rejoice," the woman begged, saying, "Cursed be this day of ours wedding. I can't bear it anymore. It's unbearable."
The more she sobbed in pain and sought mercy, the more the splashes of lava grew upon her. She tried to get rid of them, but it was impossible. The demons opened some kind of bottles containing liquids I cannot describe. They poured it over her head. The fire was unbearable. The angel will tell me now, "Watch and see." I'm watching the scene unfold on this television. He says, "What you see is the day of her wedding celebration. Most of God's children turn away from their true faith because of the ceremonies, because of the festivities. Look what happened."
Immediately I see before the wedding, this woman was sitting with her husband. They were all planning the wedding. The woman was a church usher and the man was a deacon. They both prayed in the same congregation. They said to each other, "We need to make people feel comfortable." This is our wedding. Not everyone shares our faith. We will have so many colleagues of the company who will come to rejoice with us and take part in the celebration. We need to make them feel comfortable. They decided to serve alcoholic drinks on the table of non-Christian and they let secular music play to allow people to feel welcomed, not to disturb the peace of others so that people feel comfortable at the party.
When it was the choice of the veil, the woman and her husband resolved to wear a veil that women call an estister because it exposed the breast. They bought extravagant provocative clothes for the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Thus, the day of her wedding celebration was already a condemnation.
Yet, the wedding was to be celebrated in a church. This woman wore this provocative outfit in the house of the Lord. Since she had a large chest, her dress now revealed the shape of her exposed breasts. That is why after her death, the angel explains that the cause of her transgression was the fact that she wore this dress in the house of God.
Her chest attracted attention. We were watching the scene as she tried to dance. Sometimes the dress slipped down to the point of exposing almost her entire chest. The angel began to explain this reality to me, saying, "She couldn't expose her body. The fact that the bridesmaids wore dresses with slits that revealed their body shapes was striking. The way they danced was visible. And when they danced, it was so revealing. It provoked so much sexual excitement, immorality. She glorified evil at her party. She had people wear provocative clothing, disturbing their intentions. She promoted sexual immorality at her party. Since she was a believer, she couldn't sell such an image."
The angel explained that it should have been an opportunity for every Christian to bring people to the Lord. But she exposed her body. She had young girls dressed in provocative clothing with obscene dances at a Christian celebration. The angel explained this to me. This woman bears the weight of the consequences of her choices and the scandal she caused in front of men. Through these decisions, she led many people into disorder, sexual immorality, and worldliness. On her wedding day, she chose to please men instead of pleasing God. Jesus said to his disciples, "It is impossible that scandals should not come, but woe to him through whom they come. There you have it."
The angel explains to me she deliberately chose a provocative style. She preferred to please men. Alcoholic drinks were served in her wedding. Their choice is the root of their downfall. He also says faith is not measured by the grandeur of a wedding ceremony. This occasion could have become a means of edifying, encouraging, and proclaiming the truth to many people of publicly demonstrating her faith to many. 1 Corinthians 10:es 32-33.
Do not cause offense. Do not cause offense to Greeks, nor to Jews, nor to the church of God. Just as I too strive in all things to please everyone, seeking not my own advantage, but that of the many so that they may be saved.
He told me that believers must be careful not to lead multitudes into sin. Gatherings and festivities can also become opportunities to influence others toward the Lord, toward good and not always toward evil. If you don't want to, he added, if you cannot push others to practice what you yourself refuse, then don't lead them down that path. He insisted on explaining this to me again.
So I began to ask him about these things, how to do it. He told me, "There is a remedy for these things. Dear brothers and sisters, I am speaking to all of us before continuing the testimony. All of us in our marriages have experienced the same problem. You and I are not exempt in one way or another. We have tried to please people. We tried to do what the masses demanded. Instead of showing others that we are Christians, we were ashamed of our faith to please men."
Look at what the angel will explain to me. What I will advise you, your marriage, my marriage together, beloved. Perhaps we scandalized others. Perhaps we were Christians. We wanted to relax to please everyone. We all fell into the same trap. I asked him, "How do I get out of this?"
When you have publicly dishonored your faith, you must also make amends publicly. That is to say, in the same way that I had gathered people together, I had served them, for example, alcoholic drinks, or as the woman said, I wore a provocative veil. All these things, you must now approach the men of God, come to the church, and make a confession first to the men of God, and also in the house of God. It must be a public confession of having scandalized the faith of the pagans, of having scandalized the world, of having given the pagans an argument to persist in evil because there is no difference between the marriage of a Christian and the marriage of a pagan. This confession must be public. It must not be limited to an office with a pastor. We ask forgiveness for serving alcoholic beverages at our party. We ask forgiveness for calling secular music.
The damage is already done. But we should publicly denounce this act. So this shouldn't be a private matter between you and the pastor. You must be taken to the church because the church is the house of the Lord. It is to the Lord that you must ask for forgiveness in the house of God. Explain and ask for forgiveness as much as possible. If you have some of the guests names in mind because you don't know them all, approach one, two, or three of them. The testimonies of one or two are enough to establish a case. When you explain to two or three guests in addition to the public testimony at the church…
So here the burden of evil is different and directly lifted from people. This is what the angel will explain to me concerning this problem...
So we were there with the angel. We spoke about regretted Christians, Christians who are lost. We saw a sign listing the sins of the souls in that prison. Everything was written down.
There were blaspheming Christians and other categories of Christians condemned for specific types of crimes they had committed on earth. They could be called fallen Christians. That is essentially what they are. But from that perspective, the view is different. We commit sins day in and day out. Yet it is the dominant sin that determines the condemnation. So when they are categorized blasphemers, those who abandon the faith, apostates, these are Christians who committed specific sins that led to that classification. It was based on that classification that the angel and I began to observe those people were placed in that specific location based on the crimes they had committed on earth.
We arrived at an area known of fire, desolation, and screams were everywhere. However, as we emerged from a place that resembled a pit, I noticed a vast expanse ahead of us, engulfed in flames. It was there that the angel said to me, "We have arrived at the precise moment, for you must know what transpires in this place in order to warn the church."
As we gazed across this vast expanse, I noticed a throne in the distance. A black throne dominated nearly the entire region. There were dungeons arranged much like the pavilions in our central prison. As soon as you left one, you would enter another. It was the same here. There was a throne in this place, a black throne that dominated the entire area. Surrounding it were smaller thrones, and there were mysterious creatures impossible for me to describe that sat on those thrones. They were innumerable, for it was a vast satanic army of diabolical power gathered in that place. There were thousands upon thousands of them. They sat upon thrones.
Yet before them I saw countless people of all nations and all races and language packed together and organized into lines. They were all queuing up. There were men and women of every nation and language, young and old, all amidst the flames. They were skeletal figures, completely decayed and consumed by the fire, giving off an indescribable stench of death. These people were utterly wretched. All were shackled and bound in chains arranged in queues. There were thousands upon thousands of them, enduring an unbearable state. It was like watching old movies about slavery scenes where white men arrived in Africa, capturing slaves and cramming them together. That is what it was like.
Thousands upon thousands of men and women all packed into that place. That infernal location gave me the impression of being in a courtroom. That was the best description. The place strongly resembled a court of law. The imposing power at the center of it all was the Lord of evil. According to the angel of the Lord, this prince of suffering feeds on human suffering. He is the prince of suffering. When people on earth complain about their circumstances and lament and cry out, or when they weep and kill one another for worldly possessions, they are offering glory and worship to this power.
His goal is to destroy human joy and plunge people into unimaginable hardship. Thus his work in that place is to witness human suffering. He rejoices in the weeping, the lamentations, the anxieties and the torment of mankind. He finds pleasure in misery. When a person suffers or goes through trying times, he receives glory and adoration. This creature was terrifying as he appeared amidst all those lost souls.
Church, you cannot imagine how the prisoners were being dragged to the judgment seat of this prince of suffering. I then saw this prince of hell that stood in the midst of the multitude. Then he took seat upon his throne. Beside him were other thrones occupied by evil spirits in his service. His throne towered above the smaller ones beside it and the demons were all caught up in the atmosphere filled with joy. They rejoiced in the misery of mankind.
The deceased souls lined up and were filled with an indescribable sense of regret. Their bodies were being consumed by fire. Only scraps of flesh still clung to their frames. Their bones were riddled with holes and flames erupted from every part of them. Yet even in that state, they felt bitter remorse when that infernal monster known as the prince of suffering rose from his throne. He began to address these multitude of lost souls in the following terms:
“All of you who have fallen into this place must know that you will all appear before the tribunal of your Lord at the great white throne judgment. Your master who defeated us on the cross will judge you. The one who redeemed you with his blood and sealed you with his spirit will judge you.”
I realized that this prince of hell was speaking specifically to Christians. He told them, “Your Lord defeated us and redeemed you with his blood. He gave you everything offering his forgiveness, grace, protection, and above all eternal life in glory and light. That is why we worked tirelessly to turn you away from him and from all he promised you. We seduced you with sin, worldly pleasures, bad habits, the love of money, anxiety, pride, witchcraft, sexual immorality, and all manner of compromises.”
He continued, “When you accepted our suggestions, you became our accomplices. Many of you even led others into disobedience. That is why you are all here, you foolish Christians.”
As the infernal prince spoke these words, I noticed the chains binding the condemned tightening around them like an unbearable vice. And as the chains constricted their bodies, their pain and screams intensified beyond measure. The demons of hell were seething with jubilant glee. These wicked spirits rejoiced at having seduced these souls. They mocked the men and women who had fallen into this place. Meanwhile, the souls struggled against their chains and cried out for help. Yet nothing escaped them but tears, screams, and regrets over the terrible calamity that had befallen them.
The prince of suffering continued his speech. “We do not wait for the last judgment when both we and you will be cast into the lake of fire to act. Instead, we use the time remaining to us to torment you first. So begin now to renounce your Lord.”
Begin to curse your God. Begin to deny his name. Begin to blaspheme against the name of the one who sent you here, who cast you into this place of torment. He added, "We shall make your suffering even more severe. We are currently preparing you for the last judgment and the lake of fire. Let each of you prepare a defense, for you will be judged here according to the commandments you received and neglected while on earth."
Then with rising anger, he continued, "We were cast down from our heavenly station centuries ago because of our rebellion in the realm of light. Since our fall, we have sought to regain the grace we lost. We yearn to recover the grace we forfeited in heaven. Yet the creator has barred us from his presence, his light, and his eternal riches. When we see that grace bestowed upon mankind, we are filled with rage. And when we see you arriving in great numbers at this place of condemnation, we wonder how foolish you are to despise such a great salvation."
As this infernal prince continued to speak, the angel began to explain to me just how much men have neglected this grace. How Christians keep trifling with the grace of God day after day. How often Christians on earth continue to toy with God's grace. Brother, how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? This salvation was first denounced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him, and was affirmed by God through signs, wonders, various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.
And when that prince of hell spoke of the heavenly glory they had lost, he said, "We fallen angels disobeyed God only once, yet he banished us forever from the kingdom of heaven. But you humans have sinned just as we did, even more so. Yet he continued to grant you access to his glorious kingdom of light. Despite this, you turned your backs on the door of glory he placed before you."
Then that spirit mocked the Christians who had failed to forsake their sins and had ended up there. He said, "Since you rejected the eternal life and glory he offered you freely, we are going to torture you. You will endure unbearable torment without rest. But first, you must appear before the tribunal here for judgment. We too must judge you just as your master you disobeyed. But we will not wait for the final judgment. We are going to begin judging you right here."
When he said all this, the men, most of whom were backslidden or lukewarm Christians, realized the gravity of the situation and began to cry out, "We are sorry. We aren't to blame. It was Satan who deceived us." They tried to deny responsibility for their own position, insisting that Satan had misled them. Each one attempted to offer a defense.
Everyone began to say, "As for me, I was under a spell. It wasn't my own fault. I was driven by a spirit. The devil entered me."
Ironically, people heaped accusations upon Satan, blaming him to the prince of hell, who is Satan's collaborator. Yet, the more they accused Satan, the more that prince of suffering was fueled by infernal rage and snapped at them, "Shut your mouths."
Then he commanded the evil spirits to enter the flames and begin torturing these men. As the torture began, the prince addressed the damned souls.
"How can you accuse Satan when the Lord you love allowed you to come here because of your disobedience? If you were truly a god of love, wouldn't he have prevented you from ending up in this place of torment? You are ungrateful. Now you cast the blame on Satan, claiming he is responsible. Very well, since you accuse Satan of being the cause of your perdition, let each of you prepare your defense and gather whatever evidence you have against him. We are all going to court now. You will be judged according to the word you received, according to the very book you read on earth. And since you claim Satan is responsible for your misery, you are about to see what happens here. Let each of you produce irrefutable proof of Satan's guilt in your human affairs. You are all responsible. If you fail to prove the devil is to blame for your fate, we will subject you to savage torture."
After these words, they ordered the evil spirits to arrange the people in rows.
He commanded, "Separate the men from the women, the young from the old. Sort them into groups."
So they separated the children and everyone else, lining them up in queues before him.
He said, "Since you accuse Satan, you must now demonstrate that he is responsible for your arrival here. You are ungrateful. The creator you claim to love sent you here because of your disobedience. As for Satan, whom you accuse today, he is not even directly responsible for your presence in this place. You knew the truth but chose not to follow it."
I watched as the demons began separating the people. They seized them by force and threw them onto the bare ground before his throne. They cast thousands upon thousands of people before the throne of this prince. As the people lay humiliated and tormented on the ground, another group of demons, thousands of spirits in his service, stepped in to seize these souls. They acted like soldiers brutalizing people and forcibly dragging them before the throne.
After a few minutes, the prince of suffering shouted again in a loud voice. He said to the multitude of damned souls, "Bow down for Satan. The prince of darkness has sent his defenders, his advocates, to present his case. This means that if your guilt is proven, your torments will be multiplied even further."
The people prostrated themselves amidst the flames. Their cries of suffering rose into the air, mingling with their weeping. Then, realizing they were facing a reality where condemnation seemed inevitable, these men and women began to deny and alter the accusations leveled against Satan, saying, "No, it is not Satan who is responsible for our misery. It was those closest to us who betrayed us and sent us here."
But the prince told them, "Just wait and see what happens."
The angel then said to me, "Look at what is taking place now. The torment these Christians endure is already immense because of the knowledge of the word they had received."
I looked at that place and at the demon's throne, and I saw an opening in the flames. I witnessed the arrival of Satan's defenders, the devil's advocates who were demonic evil spirits. They approached with unimaginable force. Their presence filled that already wicked place with absolute malice.
What astonished me was that among Satan's defenders, I saw not only demons, but also human beings. I realized that among those defenders, princes of darkness, there were men as well.
I cried out to the angel. I asked, "How is it that there are still humans defending Satan?"
The angel then began to explain, noting that their attire differed according to their clans, kingdoms, and affiliations. Among the devil's advocates were demons, sorcerers, and celebrities from sports, music, and other fields. There were business leaders who had promoted the perdition of mankind, stars from the entertainment world, famous athletes, politicians, influential business people, and manufacturers or promoters of products that encouraged sin and moral corruption. There were also individuals who had helped spread practices contrary to God's will, promoters of seductive and provocative fashions, collaborators in various forms of iniquity, and many others associated with the works of darkness.
All these people had come to defend Satan against the accusations of Christians who had died in their sins. I was deeply astonished to witness all of this. These satanic individuals who made up Satan's defense army presented their evidence.
Among these Satanists were people who were still alive on Earth. Yet I saw their images in that place. I could recognize players and artists who had not yet died. How could they come to hell as members of Satan's army, part of the team defending him in his trial against humanity?
The angel began to explain, for I was deeply troubled by this vast crowd that had come to support and defend the kingdom of darkness and to demonstrate that every human being is responsible for their own position.
The angel began to explain things to me. He said, "Satan, the devil, has an invisible army. Yet that army is also visible. There are men on earth whose sole mission is to advance evil enterprises, industries of sin, industries that foster evil, support immorality, and drive the erosion of both moral and spiritual values among people. They are business leaders and masters of this world working for the prosperity of Satan's kingdom."
I asked for further explanation and he said, "In every municipality, every neighborhood, and every city, the devil has his followers. Wherever a sin is committed, the devil's realm is instantly alerted. For every sin emits an odor, an odor that invites the powers of darkness to draw near quickly. An entire demonic army lurks behind every sin."
He told me that the moment you commit a sin, whether in secret or in public, diabolical powers immediately arrive to gather evidence against you. Even if you act in secret, thinking no one sees you, those forces come to collect the proof.
God will judge the secret actions of men through Jesus Christ.
He explained further. Whenever a Christian falls into sin in a particular place, Satan's followers quickly arrive to gather evidence. Sin is like a stench that draws the presence of demons to a location. Behind every transgression a person commits lies a diabolical enterprise aimed at total destabilization and disorientation.
That is why when a person falls into sin for the first time, they quickly return to the Lord. But when they fall a second time, you will notice they begin to lose the sense of the need for forgiveness. The first time they still feel the weight of it and the remorse. They feel troubled. They might not even be able to sleep. Sometimes people would even go on fasting retreats.
But as time goes on, what happens? One begins to get used to it. The evil is trivialized. It is a demonic scheme working against a person to bind them to evil. They aim to lead you down the path of a hardened heart, a state where you become estranged from forgiveness.
In the past, you felt revulsion and asked for forgiveness. Yet that sense of revulsion remained. After a while, however, you lose the drive to seek forgiveness, and eventually you stop asking for it altogether.
Most of the battles people fight here on earth are problems they created in their own lives. Sin binds you and condemns you. Sin draws everything in. It causes not only a rift with God, but also severs your connection to your destiny, your opportunities, and the blessings heaven has prepared for you.
Instead of repenting, people condemn others.
The angel continued to explain this to me. He said that when you commit evil, when a sin is committed in a certain territory, demonic forces attach themselves to it. It becomes an altar that cannot be broken merely by forgiveness, but through reconciliation with God, a new walk with God, and guidance from the Holy Spirit.
So, regarding those men, I asked him why there was a human contingent. He explained that these men had come to prove that souls were indeed guilty. However, there were other witnesses who were the dead. These demons went to fetch them from other cells. What does this mean?
Suppose you and I went to a bar together and had a drink. You die and go to hell, ending up in your cell. And when I also arrive later, what will the demons do? They will go and get you to prove that we drank beer together. You then become a witness. Your spirit will come to testify against me as a witness and then return to your cell.
