The details are : Name : Troy Your question about Ian's experience I guess the main thing stopping me from being a Christian is my mom. She's a devote Christian and reads the Bible everyday. Yet all she does is hurt us and she quotes the Bible against us whenever we do something she doesn't like (not necessarily wrong). Then you have people like Bush that makes war in God's name, and the Muslims that blow themselves up in God's name. Is it possible all these people will still go to Heaven? If so my relationship with God is strained. Answer: Dear Troy,
It is sad to hear the pain you have been experiencing. Unfortunately people are hurt and make mistakes and at times get very religious and use the bible as a weapon to hurt people rather than to help heal them.
Jesus himself had religious people hurt him but His response was one of forgiveness and prayer.
Everyone makes mistakes and yet the Lord still loves us even when we were sinners. Prayer can change things .. my mothers prayers help to save my life. Please find in your heart forgiveness for your dear mum I am sure her heart is to love God & you children. But as parents we do make mistakes and get it wrong.
As for why people go to war in the name of God. The powers of darkness love to see men killing men and Satan wants to destroy God's creation & children.{ John 8: 44 }
Thank God that physical death is not the end of Life otherwise God would have stopped all the killing & wars. But there is life after death and those who have given their lives to Jesus receive the gift of eternal life.{ John 10: 26 - 28 } { 1 John 5 : 11 - 13 }. So no matter how evil you have been you can still be forgiven and saved. We see that will the murder who was forgiven by Jesus on the cross { Luke 23 : 40 - 43 } Today you shall be with me in Paradise.
Satan rules the world { 1 John 5: 19 -20 } but Jesus has come to deliver us from Satan's kingdom and bring us into His Kingdom { Col 1 : 13 }.
Blessings

The details are : Name:cloe watts Your question about Ian's experience i believe all of it and think it is amazing! have invited lots of no christian frends when you come to stortford!3 friends are going! some of my friends dont believe it happened how can i persuade them to go? Answer:Dear Cloe,
Prayer is the key to seeing your friends come to the meetings and give their lives to Jesus. But if they don't come get a DVD of the testimony and give it to them. Invite them to a Alpha Course ... love them into the Kingdom.

The details are : Name:Amanda Ogden Your question about Ian's experience Hello Ian, I was very encouraged by your testimony. We are believers too and have been taught to call the Son Yashua. Did He refer to Himself as that? I caught that you called Him by his hebrew name. We are coming under some persecution for it and it felt like a confirmation to us and the timing of watching your video. love Amanda Answer :Dear Amanda,
I have no problems calling the Lord Jesus Christ by the name of Jesus. And I also have no issue calling him by His Hebrew name Jashua or Jeshua.
The Chinese name for Jesus Christ is " ye1 su1 ji1 du1 "
Aramaic name for Jesus is " Ea-shoa' M'shee-kha. " Eashoa' means, "the Life-Giver." Msheekha means, "the Anointed One." Eashoa' Msheekha: The Anointed Life-Giver.
The key is that He is the Son of God who came to die for our sins and through Him we have eternal life.

The details are : Name :Deborah Shah Your question about Ian's experience From your experience of heaven, do you think we soon become unaware of our earthly lives once we enter there forever? I wonder if we remember (with regret) our unsaved friends/family but know that God wipes away every tear so wonder if it's that our earthly lives become almost like a forgotten dream? Answer: Dear Deborah, Yes I felt that if I stepped into the New Earth & New Heavens at the time of my experience I would have felt as though this life on earth wasn't real ... that it was a bad dream .. and that it didn't actually exist. I felt as though as I stood there that life had begun as it was supposed to have been in the beginning. I wondered why I had not been born here in the first place? why did I have to suffer on this earth. The answer of course is that we must be born again to see the new earth & new Heavens { John 3: 3 } { Rev 21: 1 } And if when we get to this heavenly realm we could see the suffering and pain back on earth it wouldn't be heaven. The Lord will wipe away every tear, there will be no more death, no more mourning, crying or pain. { Rev 21: 3 - 5 } So I believe the cloud of great witnesses could in fact be angels { Heb 12: 1 } Blessings Ian

The details are : Name :Tom Your question about Ian's experience How do you resurrect someone? Do they have to be saved? My non-Christian friends who have never heard the gospel, can I resurrect them so they get a chance to hear it? Answer: Dear Tom, The Lord is the resurrection & the life { John 11: 25 - 26 } and Jesus has the power to raise people from the dead and I have meet hundreds of people the Lord has brought back to life. Jesus also called his disciples to heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers and cast out demons, freely you have received freely give. { Matt 10: 5 - 8 } Paul the apostle saw this happen in his minister and raised a young man from the dead. { Acts 20: 9 - 12 }. Most people are the walking dead in their sins and need the Lord Jesus to forgive them. So it is very important to share the good news that Jesus can save us because once a person dies comes judgement and they cannot repent in hell.{ Heb 9: 27 - 28 } Blessings Ian

The details are : Name :clare knapman Your question about Ian's experience What about baptism? Were you baptised when you believed? Answer: Dear Clare, Yes I was baptised in water after I gave my life to the Lord. The scriptures teach repent and be baptised { Matt 3 : 2 - 11 } { Luke 3 : 1 - 8 } { Acts 2: 38 }. Water Baptism didn't save me the blood of Jesus through repentance did { Romans 10: 7 - 13 } { Heb 10: 19 - 20 } . But the scriptures teach us to die to sin & this world and to follow the Lord into water baptism { Romans 6 : 3 - 10 } I was then baptised by the Lord in the Holy Spirit { Matt 3: 11 } { Acts 1: 4 - 5 } { Acts 19 : 2 - 6 } and spoke with other tongues and began to prophesy.

The details are : Name :Roshan Herath (Mr) Your question about Ian's experience In what way/s was your mother's faith affected as a result of what happened to you and her invlovement in the whole process? Have you dad and brother become Christians by now? Answer: My mothers faith has only increased as a result of the experience. As she herself would say she was a spiritual baby until I came to the Lord. And shortly after this I was able to lead my older sister to Jesus and 2 years ago my mum & sister lead my father to faith in Jesus Christ. I have one unsaved younger brother that we are still praying for. My Mothers faith in Jesus and her prayers we critical in me coming to know the Lord Jesus Christ. Blessings Ian

The details are : Name :Mirjam Your question about Ian's experience Hello Ian, my name is Mirjam, I'm 21 years old and living in Germany...that's why my english might be not always correct...but I'll try my best :0) After listening to a sermon I found on the internet, I was just wondering if there has ever been a moment in your (second) life when you went on your own...I mean, when you chose being alone, without the presence of Christ? As you felt like you were just living for your own, forgetting that Christ has bought your life with His blood? Because you said He never left your side since then... How awesome! And what did you do to stay with Him??? I'm running away so many times and...well, because you saw Him face to face (too amazing for words...) - you might know Him better than I do...so I thought you might help me with an advice: how can I be certainly living with Christ every second of my life?? There are so many scars and pain that are holding me down to depression ...and I'm longing so deeply to live freely with Christ...being healed and...being faithful to him. I don't know how to manage that. I hope I'm not stealing any of your time, but I don't know a person who ever said that God's presence never left his side. I need that too. Blessings and Love, Mirjam Answer: Dear Mirjam, My heart goes out to you as you try to follow the Lord. I have found that the LOVE of GOD is the key. Not to just read about it but to experience it personally .. we love because He first Loved us { 1 John 4: 19 } . The Lords love & presence is tangible, he comes by His Holy Spirit to comfort, heal and restore us to Divine Health ... Body Soul & Spirit. I also know that we need to put on the full armour of God { Eph 6 : 10 - 18 } and stand in faith using the spiritual weapons the Lord has given us in His word and by the Power of His Holy Spirit { Acts 10: 38 } . We fight not against flesh & blood { 2 Cor 10 : 3 - 6 }. The Lord desires us to know His Presence and to be transformed by His Glory { Isaiah 60 : 1 - 7 } Wait upon Him to come to you ... receive all that He has for you .. allow His Healing Love to fill your heart. Wait upon the Lord ... and trust in Him .. He will never leave you or deny you. Blessings Ian

The details are : Name :sashi bekoo Your question about Ian's experience tell me when you have heard the voice telling you `son if you close you shall never wake up' what was your feeling and when you heard that voice whom was you thinking. Answer: Dear Sashi, When I heard that voice I didn't know who that voice was ... all I knew is that is was true if I had closed my eyes on that beach I would never have woken up. And when I stood before Jesus in Heaven I realised that He was the person who had been speaking to me through out the entire experience. { John 10: 27 - 28 } My sheep hear my voice. What is amazing is that Jesus spoke to me as a non believer ... but I now know His heart that He Loves the lost sheep { Matt 10: 6 } { Matt 18 : 11 } and wishes that none would perish but all would get the gift of eternal life { 2 Peter 3 : 9 } Blessings Ian

Your question about Ian's experience
Hi Ian, sorry this is a bit cheeky again using this to contact you! I have never come across a better testimony for giving to non-Christian friends than yours. It has such an anointing. There is one problem though. The DVD's I have bought from the various people listed on your site are very poor quality visuals and it seems such a shame that an anointed testimony like yours be adorned with such sub-standard visual quality. Would you pray about getting a really good quality DVD recording of your testimony done and make it available to all? Perhaps one that is especially tailored to non-Christians (i.e not done in a church). I personally have a number of people I want to give your testimony to, but the DVD quality is so poor I think they will soon switch it off having been used to the awesome quality they see done by the secular movie world. Can't we Christians excel in this? Please please please consider it! Many thanks. Henry Answer: Dear Henry, The problem is that I don't make the DVD's myself .. I actually purchase then off people who do and try and give them away at cost price .... I just speak at hundreds of meetings and let anyone video them and so there are 1000's of copies out there from all kind of meetings .... some are excellent in quality i.e. The God Channel , 700 Club, TBN, Revelation TV, Kensington Temple Church in London all have recorded my testimony and others that are much poorer filming quality like St Paul's Church London .... I have put no copyright on them and don't sell them for profit and so there is no royalties involved at all. Jesus said " freely you have received freely give." I personally don't agree with the way many Christians are selling things for profit. I believe the Lord has spoken to me that " they have their reward." If you feel to take the recordings that are currently around and do something better with them by all means do that. Or come along to a meeting with your video equipment and do a better version for people .... So please feel free to do what ever you like with the existing DVD's , videos etc edit them .. change them if you feel it will make them more useful for non believers to watch ... or come and video a meeting .... there are endless opportunities to save souls .... Hope this helps? Ian

The details are : Name :Stan Thompson Your question about Ian's experience Ian, I heard you speak in 1996 in Solihull, England - a month after my own very supernatural conversion - I didn't die though but had a powerful revelation of the cross and God's love. I must have given about 50+ of your videos to family and friends between 1996-1999. One girl was interrupted by a phone call whilst watching it, she hung up on the caller because she had stood up to give her life to Lord. Another lady was deeply moved by it and a month later her husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer. One of my aunts visited us from Zimbabwe (I had never met her before in my life: she was also a JW). She was touched and challenged by the message. I believe that her visit to the UK was divinely ordained to see her family and to watch your testimony because a month later she died in Zimbabwe. I have recently finished five years of theological study (BA and MA) and now want to get back to the life giving Gospel and stumbled across your website. Your testimony has reached many of my family and friends, most of whom would be reluctant to set foot in a church. Hope this encourages you to keep up the good work. God bless, Stan T. Answer: Dear Stan, Thank you so much for that very encouraging email. It really helps you want to continue on sharing what the Lord Jesus Christ has done in my life. Bless you as you reach out to help save this dieing world. Ian

The details are : Name :James Lees Your question about Ian's experience You claim that you could only see God and percieve him after reciting the lords prayer and giving yourself to him before death. Yet do you not also state that you heard God speak to you, telling you to remain concious when the boat boy first leaves you. If so then had you not to a degree already percieved God before giving yourself to him thus invalidating your rebirth, just as if someone were to attempt to give themselves over to God when already in hell. Answer: Dear James, I am trying to understand your question ? So I hope this helps ?
The Lord Jesus Christ Loves sinners and wishes that none would perish so He does speak to them to lead them to repentance. He lead me into a repentant prayer in the ambulance where I gave my life to Him and was born again { John 3 : 3 }
It is impossible to repent of your sins in hell as the scriptures tell us that it is appointed for man to die and then comes judgement { Heb 9 : 27 - 28 }. God's Holy Spirit works with man to convict him of sin, righteousness and judgement { John 16: 8 - 14 } And thankfully I had a praying mother {James 5 : 16 } who the Lord was listening to and this enabled the Lord to send His Holy Spirit to lead me to a place of repentance. Hope this helps answer your question. God can & does speak to non - believers because He LOVES to save the LOST SOULS { John 3: 16 - 18 } This is why God the Father sent His Son Jesus Christ into the world not to judge it but to save it. Bless you Ian

The details are : Name: Sarah Your question about Ian's experience How does Jesus' face look like when you saw Him? You said that you couldn't see His face clearly, but may be you had a glimpse of His image at that time... Answer: Dear Sarah,
I couldn't see Jesus face when I stood before Him { Rev 1:16 } it says here that Jesus shines like the sun in full strength. { 2 Cor 4: 6 } that Jesus face is the glory of the Father. Even Moses could not look upon God's face but was only allowed to see His form & glory { Ex 33: 20 - 23 } No man sees the face of God & Lives. But when we step through into Heaven we will see His face { Rev 22: 4 }
So I saw what John the apostle saw on the Island of Patmos I saw the Risen Glorified Savour our Lord Jesus Christ. { Rev 1: 13 - 18 }

The details are : Name: Logan Your question about Ian's experience How do I know that I am praying in the spirit and not from my head how will I know the difference? Answer: Dear Logan,
When you are praying in the Spirit most times you will be praying in tongues { 1 Cor 14: 2 } When we are baptised in the Holy Spirit the Lord gives us the gift of tongues { Acts 10: 44 - 46 } { Acts 19: 1 - 6 } and here they also prophesied. { Acts 2: 4 } They spoke with other tongues.
The Apostle Paul's desire was that everyone spoke in tongues {1 Cor 14: 5 } and in { 1 Cor 14: 22 } he said that tongues were for a sign for the unbelievers. { 1 Cor 13: 1 }
And even though we speak in tongues of angels & men with out LOVE it is nothing.
Sometimes we don't know how to pray but the Holy Spirit gives us utterances that are too deep for words { Rom 8 : 26 }
We are also to pray out of our minds in accordance with the words of truth we find in the bible. In line with His word's .... there is nothing at all wrong with praying like this.
Jesus also spoke about the Spirit coming to man like living waters { John 7: 38 - 39 } Out of our inner most being will come these living waters.
I often have felt the Tangible Presence of the Holy Spirit moving in my belly , on my hands, through my heart. Jesus felt the power of the Holy Spirit go out of Him when people touched him in faith { Mark 5: 30 } It says watch over your heart for from it flows the springs of life. { Prov 4: 23 }
The key is a heart after the Lord .. totally surrendered to Him. To Love Him with all your heart, all your mind, all your soul. { Mark 12: 29 - 30 }
Bless you

The details are : Name: Neil Mason Your question about Ian's experience More of a comment than a question: Many people, of all walks of life have had what is now known as a near-death experience. These experiences transcend christianity in spirituality; the main lessons learned been 'love one another'. Its not only christians that get to heaven: EVERYBODY does, its that simple; we dont need saving because we were never lost. Answer: Dear Neil,
Unfortunately you may believe that everyone gets to heaven and that it is not just through Jesus Christ.
Jesus said He came to save the Lost { Matt 18: 11 }
The Lord said the greatest commandment is to LOVE GOD with all your heart , mind, soul .. then to love your neighbour as yourself.{ Mark 12: 29 - 31 } We love because He first Loved us { 1 John 4 : 19 } This is what I experience when I died and stood before Jesus .. He Loved me unconditionally. And He is the Light of the World .. the person standing in the Light at the end of the tunnel. { Matt 7: 14 } Jesus said narrow is the way that leads to the kingdom of God and few find it.
Jesus also said no one comes to the Father accept through Him { John 14: 6 } Satan comes to deceive people into believing the lies that any way will get you there and that there is no hell. { 2 Cor 11: 3 - 4 }
The scriptures also teach us that Satan comes like an angel of light to deceive and lie to people { 2 Cor 11: 14 } I have seen that nearly all the major religions of the world have had their founder & leader see an angel of light appear and tell them a lie about Jesus. That Jesus was just a prophet not the son of God, that Jesus never died on the cross but his disciple Judas was crucified in the place of Jesus. That Jesus was a re-incarnation of some other God. The Jesus was just a healer not God on earth.
All of these come from the heart & mind of Lucifer and are called doctrines of demons { 1 Tim 4 : 1 - 5 } and that we are to test every spirit to make sure it comes from the Lord { 1 John 4: 1 - 3 } because many spirit are actually ANTI - CHRIST spirits { that means they of course turn people away from the true light of Jesus Christ. The name of Jesus Christ means " Anointed Life - Giver ". { John 1 : 9 - 14 } teaches us that Jesus is the person who can give true Enlightenment. And that He is the Truth .. all other religions say they are looking for truth. You can stop looking when you find Jesus Christ as your Lord & Saviour.
Many worship the Dragon ...{ Rev 12: 4 - 11 } tells us there was a war in Heaven and Satan { the Red Dragon of Old } and a third of the angels were cast out of Heaven and are now on this earth as unclean evil demonic spirits. But we can over come them by the blood of Jesus Christ the Lamb of God.
And that our battle is not against mankind but against Spiritual forces of Evil that come straight from Satan who desires to Kill & destroy mankind { Eph 6: 10 - 18 }.
But Jesus has overcome Satan and defeated Him on the Cross { Col 2: 13 - 14 } { Heb 2: 14 - 15 }
Pray this helps Neil
Bless you

The details are : Name : Jamie Gibson Your question about Ian's experience I am in complete awe and amazement of your experience with death Ian. Not only am I amazed but I am more and more curious to know more about Jesus each and everyday. I got saved about 7 years ago. My faith is at it's strongest it's ever been, I'm 27 and am in complete love with Jesus and want to know more about Him and His love. I believe you, and I believe the Gospel. Because I worked at a makeup counter recently, and my co-worker was explaining her experience she had with death back in the 80's. She told us as we were supposedly working :) that with her experience she remembers a hand grabbing her as she left her body, and meeting a man of light who wore a white robe. And around His robe was a gold sash. She said she remembers going through the galaxy traveling through the stars of the universe leaving the earth. I can't recall much, cause I don't work for the makeup counter anymore, and it was quite a while ago, but those details stuck out when we were at the counter that day. Everyone else looked like they didn't believe her, but I DID. And I wanted to know more about Jesus. Cause I told her you SAW Jesus. So I researched some experiences, and most of them are quite detailed and very accurate to what the Gospel says. My question to you is, Was seeing Him anything like what my coworker had told us? Any similarities? And just a few curious questions like was He very tall? Did he embrace and hug you? If so, how did it feel? Did he laugh or smile? I am just amazed that you have lived and are a TRUE witness. Heaven and Hell are so real, and people live like the world everyday oblivious to Jesus' message. And I so want to reach out to them. Even believers who live like, and conform to the ways of the world and a certain crowd of people. People are so angry these days, and filled with hate, and live to exclude others. I've dealt with rejection and suffering for just loving Him and showing His love, because Christ is within me. And I know I'm blessed for it. It hurts, but I know I have my reward waiting for me. I read in Revelation Jesus majestic description (Revelation 1:14-16) and want to know more and more. I hope His return is real real soon :) Like in 4 or 8 years soon. No one knows the day or hour, but I pray that it will be real soon. Answer: Dear Jamie, Great to hear your walk with the Lord and your friend sounds like she really met the Lord. I find many similarities with your co-worker and when I stood before Jesus he seemed to be around 6 foot tall. I felt His embrace and it was so comforting ... like arms of Love ...I also felt totally changed as I stood before Jesus and experience Purity & child like innocence flow into me and Holiness. It was amazing to see His Glory and form { Rev 1: 13 - 18 } is one of the closet descriptions I could find in the bible. I felt His acceptance & pleasure but didn't hear Him laugh or see Him smile as I could see His face ... Hope this is encouraging to your faith. Bless you Ian

The details are : Name : rebecca Your question about Ian's experience : Could you feel your heart beating when you were with God? Answer: Yes but it was not my physical heart as my body was dead but my spirit was totally alive. I could feel Love touching and healing my broken heart as I stood before the Lord. It was amazing and awesome to be standing in Front of Jesus in His Glorified form. Bless you Ian The form title 'Ask a question' was filled in on 23:02 at 3rd February 2008. The details are : Name : Jamie Your question about Ian's experience Another quick question... what do you think of Jesus' burial cloth, The Shroud of Turin? My faith tells me it was His actual cloth that wrapped His severely beaten body during the time of His burial, and is actual proof of His resurrection. What do you think? Answer: Dear Jamie, I am not sure as the burial cloth I would have thought was wrapped around the body of Jesus rather than laid upon His dead body ? But I certainly am open to being wrong and that this is the actual burial cloth ? the impressions upon it are quite remarkable. I am just so pleased that I saw the Lord in His Resurrected & Glorified body. And I could see that Jesus had clothed himself in Garments of Light { Ps 104: 2 } God Bless

The details are : Name: Mrs M Your question about Ian's experience I have already given my life to christ in fact on the very night I decided I would get myself baptised I was told in a dream that I had already been all but signed up to hell though previous sin. This was the first of many dreams and visions. I have been told to ignore this by my pastor. I am now however worried that my previous life before my salvation prayer was in such a mess that I am unrepairable. I don't even know how to clean up my life, for starters I am divorced and remarried, It is all so complicated I don't even know where to start. I do feel my heart is diffrent now but I am afraid the reparation needed is way beyond me and I wouldn't even know which way God would want me to act in order to get my life right with Him. I do not speak in tounges either. Is it possible you can clarify what is happening to me as I feel broken hearted at the very idea of being seperated from Christ by any previous error that could somehow have an impact on my salvation if that is possible or that Christ would not want to come to my unclean heart. I am still going along trying to be the best I can but feel I need fixing or healing in some way. My mother died very recently also and I said many prayers for both my mother prior to death and my family and their salvation in christ. When mother died she had gold dust on her face and all around her head.This was seen by myself and some others present. This same gold dust thing also happened to appear on the same night by others from a church that I had asked to pray also for the same situation. What is happening? I seem to get some really wonderful things but at the same time feel broken. for exmple I read a testimony of another christian nde he said that he saw heaven and that music from heaven can come to earth through anyone who loves God and wants to bring gods words to earth in a way that pleases God. I thought I would ask for myself for Gods words to be brought forward in song and it came through inspiration. I could hear the words and music and have since set about getting this song realised. I have no musical training at all but it is coming together anyhow. Why do these things happen whilst at the same time I am unable to speak in tounges and am so fearful that I will offend God in my present day to day life? I am so sorry to burden you with my confusion but hope that you can bring clarity to me. I ask you these things as I feel you have come so very close to God and will be by that very blessing be so much better able to see some sense of clarity to all this than I. I just want to have the gift of salvation and not be left out in the cold through my own error. I hope not to come accross as selfish or indulgent but have seen your testimony and hope my letter can also help you to help others in clearing up these kinds of thoughts that may mean seperation from God for some. God bless you and thanks for listening. Answer: Dear Mrs M
It is so hard when you have given your life to the Lord and we have come from such broken lives. But what is so amazing is that the Lord forgives ALL our sins from the past { 1 John 1 : 7 - 9 } and Jesus blood cleanses us as white as snow. So don't let anyone bring condemnation and tell you your sins are not forgiven { Romans 8 : 1 }
The process of healing and sanctification takes time .. God is very patient with us and knows our weaknesses and failing { Hebrew 4: 15 - 16 } we can come to the Throne of Grace and seek the Lord and find help in time of our need. GOD LOVES US.
It is good to ask the Lord to give the gift of tongues { 1 Cor 14 : 1 - 5 } it helps to build us up in the Holy Spirit. Paul the Apostle wished that every believer would speak in tongues. Ask and you shall receive { Matt 7 : 7 - 11 }
Speaking in tongues does not save us but we are saved by the Grace of God when we repent of our sins { Eph 2: 4 - 10 } and its the blood of Jesus that washes our sins away { 1 Peter 1 : 1 - 5 } And once we are saved and our temple of our body is cleansed the Lord wants us to be baptised in water & Baptised in the Holy Spirit { Matt 3 : 11 }
God Bless your heart as you continue to listen to the Lord and love Him with all your heart Mrs M.

The details are : Name :Ben Your question about Ian's experience Hi. I am unsure of the divinity of Yahshua. I belive Him to be the first born son, our high preist, saviour, the Son of God - but not sure if He has always been, like the Father. So, in your opinion is Yahshua God from everlasting to everlasting, or was He born to complete His ministry and then be glorified, and raised to the right hand of YHWH? Answer : Dear Ben,
Yes I believe that Jesus { Yahshua } is God from everlasting to everlasting. It says in the scripture that Jesus is the Alpha & the Omega { Rev 22: 13 } the beginning & the end. { Col 1: 15 - 19 } We see Jesus is the image of God the Father, and that in Jesus the entire earth & heavens were created through Him & for Him. { John 1: 1 - 4 } Here we see that in the beginning was the word and the word was God and nothing came into being apart from Him. And the word became flesh { John 1: 14 } and dwelt amongst us and we have beheld Him the only begotten Son of God Jesus Christ.
{ Phil 2: 6 - 11 } Jesus although He existed in the form of God humbled himself and took on the form of man.
{ Heb 1: 2 - 3 } Jesus is the exact representation of God the Fathers Glory and Divine Nature. Jesus is God.
{ Gen 1: 26 } We see here God said Let us make man in OUR Image .. this word " our image " is in the Hebrew a plural word ... meaning more than ONE person. This is why I believe totally in the Trinity { Matt 28 : 19 } Baptising them in the name of God Father , God the Son & God the Holy Spirit.
{ Dan 7: 9 - 14 } Here we see God the Father on the Throne { Ancient of Days } and then we seen the Cloud of Heaven one like the Son of Man { Actually Jesus before He came to earth } being presented before the Father and to Him is given dominion, glory, and a kingdom and it is an everlasting Dominion that will not pass away.
Jesus is in the Father and they are one { John 10: 30 } John 17 : 22 } . When you have seen Jesus you have seen the Father { John 14: 8 - 13 } .
When I stood in Front of Jesus in His Glorified form I could see that He was God and that the entire universe had been created through Him. { Rev 1: 13 - 18 }.
God Bless you

The details are : Name : nik Your question about Ian's experience Dear Ian, I have read your story on another website. My question is, why didn't you include in your reenactment, the events which transpired after you were discharged from the hospital? i.e the harrasment by demons etc..? Thanks. Answer: Dear Nic, I would love to have done that and put the demonic side of my testimony into the re-enactment but unfortunately we didn't have the money to do it. Perhaps it will get done some time in the future and will put it up on the web for everyone to see it. So at present all people can do is read it from my web page in Jenny Sharkies book. Or they can listen to it in the audio section called Part 2 of my testimony. Blessings Ian

Scars : Some folks have been asking whether I still have scars on my forearm. I did for a number of years but after 30 years they have faded and I only have faint scaring. It was like I have been whipped across the arm when it first happened and looked terrible. I prayed that the Lord would take them away and daily applied Vit E cream and put fresh Aloe Vera plants cut open for their juices over the scars ... this really seemed to help take most of the scar tissue away.
