 Avoid This Book December 3, 2008

Written by Bill Wiese, '23 Minutes In Hell' purports to be his story of the author's brief visit to hell.
Admittedly, I was skeptical about the book before I started reading it. That only intensified as I read Wiese's book. Essentially, he claims that he was taken from his house, transported to hell, tortured, observed all kinds of demonic activity, and then was brought back by Jesus personally and had a conversation with Him.
Obviously, no one except Wiese and God know the truth for sure. Here are some things that we can consider. In the story of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man died and was buried. He then had a conversation with Abraham and asked to have Lazarus go and warn his brothers about hell. He wanted them to avoid his fate. Abraham replied: 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.' Are we to think that although we are told that unbelievers will not believe even if someone rises from the dead, they will take the word of a California realtor?
In the book, Wiese claims that Jesus made it so that he would not remember he was a Christian during his trip to hell. One wonders how that correlates with Titus 1:2 which indicates that God does not lie.
Another claim made by Wiese is that in his converation with Jesus, he was told that he was taken to hell so that he would spread the message that He would be returning 'very soon' - that time was running out. Wiese says that he should have asked Jesus how long. The Scriptures tell us clearly that only the Father knows the time of his return.
Another consideration is that the whole point of Mr. Wiese's 'testimony' is his claim of a special revelation from God. This implies that the general revelation of God's word is insufficient. One might ponder how that fits with Revelation 22:18-19 which clearly warns not to add or take away from the words of 'this book of prophecy'. It gives very clear consequences for such action.
My advice for Christians would be to avoid this book like the plague and certainly not recommend it to others.
 An Easy Way to Learn and Be Aware of Where You're Headed November 25, 2008
"23 Minutes in Hell" is remarkably easy to read and gives such a detailed description that it's like he is taking us there with him to witness his experience. I read it aloud to my daughter and to my 7-yr old granddaughter who has been wanting to know the Truth. She slept soundly and peacefully that night to my daughter's surprise. The little one can't even watch Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory because of the things like a little girl swelling up like a big blueberry. I explained to my daughter that this one was in the spirit realm and anointed so people can understand it & get closer to God. I've been handing them out to people and plan to buy more.
Good witnessing tool November 25, 2008
This is one of the best books to give to your unsaved friends that I have seen in some time. Instead of preaching at you, the author is simply telling a real story of a life changing event that happened to him and you are hooked into the story in just the first few pages. The book makes you take a hard look at your own life and think "why am I really here".
This book is a MUST READ FOR EVERYONE EVERYWHERE November 23, 2008
I cannot even express the detail in the book, it is as if you are actually there as well. Everyone on earth should and needs to read this book, it could be the difference between spending eternity in Heaven or Hell and after reading this book, you will certainly know without a doubt, you do not want to be in Hell for even 23 seconds. It is an amazing story by an amazing man and I couldn't put it down. Thank you to the seller who packaged it so nicely and got it to me within two days after a friend of mine told me about it, I couldn't wait to read it and thanks to Amazon I was in two days. AWESOME MUST READ!!!
