    true. and none of them gave any account of their experiences while dead that the Holy Spirit thought needed to be recalled by the apostles or by Luke, and put on paper.

    I went and saw it this morning with the wife, just for curiosity's sake. we woulda done better seeing Captain America, or Draft Day, or even the "horror" film Oculo.
    Here you have a pastor portrayed by Hollywood as giving a 5-minute sermon which sounded more feel-good than Osteen's, a church with a board of "deacons" (with one deaconness) who feel uncomfortable that the pastor's son is speaking of heaven, and so they're going to fire the pastor and find somebody else more grounded.
    Then you have a pastor who goes to, of all people, a psychologist (with an obvious axe to grind against God having watched her husband die "in his faith"), instead of a fellow pastor.
    Then Hollywood connects the film, the boy, and his "vision", with another kid from somewhere in Europe who paints visions of heaven as she sees them (who, googling a little, seems to be of the Catholic persuasion).
    If this pastor is still pastoring the same church, I wonder what he preaches to his congregation, since in the movie his topic in church is his son and not the Son of God ?
    Has his congregation grown because of his son's experiences ?
    The film is, well, to me, at least, nauseating.
    I wondered coming out of the theater if we could get a refund ?
    after all, movies are supposed to be entertaining.
    this one was.......well....infuriating in its insult to what REAL Christians know the Bible says about heaven.
    You may have a different opinion, but that's fine.

    Did you give Rev Brother Paul Washer's latest book a 2-star rating? The book was doing well in reviews until someone gave it a 2-star review.

    Someone from the family got back to me after my message and no question about it a false church that advocates New Revelation.

    NO scripture will they heed that I gave them but they got ignored. Then I responded and gave them this link. It did not surprise me that I got ignored.

    Were the details shared by the boy agreeing with the Bible?

    Did it exault Jesus Christ as sole Lord/messiah?

    That tells us wether it really was from/of God then!
