Heaven pictures_ A Trip to Heaven (FALSE PROPHET) / 천국그림 _천국을 견학하다(FALSE PROPHET)


Heaven pictures_ A Trip to Heaven (FALSE PROPHET) / 천국그림 _천국을 견학하다(FALSE PROPHET)

A Korean girl called “Hwa bi Jung” who supposedly visited Heaven and Hell, and she painted what she saw is another false prophet of the End Times. She will go to the true hell for being a false prophet and a liar if she do not repent of her lies.

Many false prophets have raised, many of them are Pentecostal Protestant Christians (Pentecostal evangelicals), one of them is Hwa bi Jung.

In her video of Heaven she have commited a lot of heresies and doctrinal errors that contradict the Gospel.

Evaluation about her video called: “Heaven pictures_A Trip to Heaven”

1) She said that we have to live 80-90 years to be a perfect spirit.

You can be saved if you are 20 years, not 80. A long life on Earth does not make you more holy or saint.


2) She said that there are not two paths, heaven and hell but a lots of paths.

She said that evil spiritual world is divided in hades, hell, abyss and furnace of fire (Why doesn´t she make a video about hades, abyss or furnace of fire?)

When she said that the good and evil spiritual worlds are in the bible, it is a misinterpretation of Scripture. When the Bible says that hades, abyss, hell, furnace of fire and lake of fire exist, ALL OF THEM REFER TO HELL.

Hades= hell; furnace of fire= hell, lake of fire = hell.

Hades is not a different place from hell, contrary to what she wants to teach us. Hades = Hell; they are not different as she said.


3) She said that good spiritual world is divided in Paradise and Heaven, but the only place that exists is Heaven. There are only two paths, heaven or hell, no more.

(She doesn´t mention Purgatory, but in the Catholic Church, Purgatory is only a temporary state, it is not a definitive state as Heaven or Hell)

Conclusion: There are only two paths, heaven or hell.


4) She said that there are female and male angels ¿Female and male angels?

Angels don’t have gender. They don´t have sex. They don´t have to reproduce. Angels have no gender because they don’t have penis or vagina.

Angels have no sex in the sense as we understand it. They never procreated and they never marry (Mat 22:30). They are spirit beings and thus have no physical body (1 Corinthians 15:44). In Bible times, they appear to men and women on the earth, and always appeared as men, and are always referred to with the masculine pronoun (with one possible exception being Zechariah 5:9).

Now, about why angels and God are seen in the masculine and are referred to by the masculine pronoun:

I believe, and these are my thoughts, that since it was God who created the masculine characteristics and role, of Leader, Provider, Protector, and Messenger that these particular characteristics are integral to His own character, thus when He presents Himself to His creation He is referred to as "masculine" because of the definition our languages give to it.

Really, in our languages we have only masculine, feminine, and neuter, of which the only one that best fits an understanding of who God is and how He functions is "masculine." The same could be said about the angels whose role best matches up with the masculine.

Bottom line, the use of the masculine for God and the angels is not to declare a superiority of the masculine over the feminine, but rather just to reflect the best understanding of the person and role.

How are men made in His image? Women are made in His image too. God is invisible, so his image is 'soul/spirit. We create- paint, write music, build magnificent buildings, and appreciate beauty, etc. It is our soul, not physical.



5) Angels’ pictures from the Korean artist don´t have wings.

In the Bible some angels have wings. (Exodus 25:20; Ezekiel 10; Isaiah 6)


6) She said that if you only love God, you have a half-completed love.

It is incorrect because if you love God you have a completed love, you can love your neighbor having love to God.

1 John 4:20-21

20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.


7) She said that Jesus need a private plane to get around to different places in Heaven.

Jesus don’t need a plane to travel around the Heaven because he is a spirit and he can teleport everywhere,
besides that God is omnipresent in Heaven and on Earth.



8) She said that in Heaven you cannot see Lord all the time. She said that there are people in Heaven who have not seen Lord for a long time.

1 John 3:2

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

1 Corinthians 13:12

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

Revelation 22:4

And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

John 14:3

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Philippians 1:23

For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better

Read the Catechism of the Catholic Church if you want to know what Heaven is according the true Church of Christ, the Catholic Church. Read the number 1023 to 1029.


9) She said that in Heaven we have to eat only for the “joy of eating” ¿Eating only for pleasure?

The Scripture says the following:

"For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost". (Romans 14:17)

Souls in heaven are only spirits. Spirits can not eat. Maybe in the general resurrection our resurrected bodies will be able to eat. We don´t know. But right now, it is impossible.


10) She said that someone who believes in the Lord will not go to heaven.

She said the following: "The misunderstood concept that just anyone who believes in the Lord will go to Heaven is the biggest block on the path to heaven"

It contradicts the "sola Fide" that protestants believe. Anyway, as a Christian Catholic I don´t believe in the Luther's doctrine: "sola fide"


11) She said that the people that are not Christian (Protestants) will not go to Heaven.

She said that only Christians go to Heaven referring to Protestant Christians, although Orthodox and Catholics are Christians too. Protestants stole the name, but in reality Christians are Catholics, Protestants and Orthodox.

Only Protestant Christians have that belief that they alone are going to be saved but Catholic Christians have another belief very different from them:

If you do good and you are a good person, even without having known Jesus Christ you can be saved.

The Church claims that members of other faiths can obtain eternal salvation:

847 Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - those too may achieve eternal salvation.

843 The Catholic Church recognizes in other religions that search, among shadows and images, for the God who is unknown yet near since he gives life and breath and all things and wants all men to be saved. Thus, the Church considers all goodness and truth found in these religions as "a preparation for the Gospel and given by him who enlightens all men that they may at length have life.

846 Basing itself on Scripture and Tradition, the Council teaches that the Church, a pilgrim now on earth, is necessary for salvation: the one Christ is the mediator and the way of salvation; he is present to us in his body which is the Church. He himself explicitly asserted the necessity of faith and Baptism, and thereby affirmed at the same time the necessity of the Church which men enter through Baptism as through a door. Hence they could not be saved who, knowing that the Catholic Church was founded as necessary by God through Christ, would refuse either to enter it or to remain in it.

Protestants generally believe that "personal salvation is achieved through faith in Christ Jesus", and that those who did not have the opportunity to know Jesus are going to hell. The Catholic Church has a different view.

The universal salvific will of God:

First of all underlines the universal salvific will of God, which consists of two aspects:

1 -God loves all men.

“And should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than sixscore thousand persons that cannot discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much cattle?” (Jonah 4:11)

"Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways. Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness." (Acts 14: 16-17)

2 -God wants all men to be saved:

“Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim. 2:4)

Faith in Christ is a condition for salvation only to those who have the opportunity to know enough to Christ, not to the others who do not have this opportunity and that they are most men.

In this regard, the vision they have Protestants on salvation is very small, full of fanaticism to not considering other parts of the Bible and actual situation of mankind, who do not have the opportunity of an adequate knowledge of Christ .

Just think of Japan, India and all communist countries where the practice of any religion is prohibited. All these people who in fact does not know and does not believe in Christ, are they condemned? Are all Indians of Mexico and America who lived and died before the arrival of the missionaries condemned for not believing in Christ? Of course not.

The Bible says that in every man, God has put some wisdom so we can find Him and love Him although it is a difficult quest.

“For what can be known about God is evident to them, because God made it evident to them. Ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes of eternal power and divinity have been able to be understood and perceived in what he has made. As a result, they have no excuse; for although they knew God they did not accord him glory as God or give him thanks.” (Rom. 1:19-20)

“Or when the Gentiles who do not have the law by nature observe the prescriptions of the law, they are a law for themselves even though they do not have the law. They show that the demands of the law are written in their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even defend them” (Rom 2,14-15).

"So that people might seek God, even perhaps grope for him and find him, though indeed he is not far from any one of us. For 'In him we live and move and have our being,' as even some of your poets have said, 'For we too are his offspring. (Acts17:27-28b).

So the Catholic Church, having a deeper understanding of the Bible, has a broader view of salvation, salvation is open to all men of all times provided they act according to their conscience. Faith in Christ is a condition to be saved to the extent that one has the opportunity to know Him in an appropriate manner. If someone does not have this opportunity it can be saved trying to live according to its conscience.

The Holy Spirit, the third person of the Holy Trinity, acts in a salvific way in Christians as non-Christians and does it in a mysterious way.

But we know that whoever that is saved, is saved by the merits and grace of Christ, not by their own, since the will of God that all men be saved, God´s will is offered us and in fact is true, by the incarnation of God in the person of Jesus Christ and through the merits of his passion, death and resurrection.

This does not mean that those who belong to the Church are saved automatically by the fact of belonging to it. Our cooperation is necessary to the graces that come us from Christ through his Church.

We are saved by grace of God but can the person that kill people and continue believing in God be in grace? Of course not. A killer that believes in God cannot be in grace of God. A mortal or grave sin kills that communion with God and you lose the grace. Luther said that if he continue killing Anabaptists while he believed in God he would be saved, but it is not true.

PS: Luther killed Anabaptists if you read Christian Church History.

ABOUT PRIVATE REVELATIONS:

This is what the Church says regarding private revelations.

67 Throughout the ages, there have been so-called "private" revelations, some of which have been recognized by the authority of the Church. They do not belong, however, to the deposit of faith. It is not their role to improve or complete Christ's definitive Revelation, but to help live more fully by it in a certain period of history.

Guided by the Magisterium of the Church, the sensus fidelium knows how to discern and welcome in these revelations whatever constitutes an authentic call of Christ or his saints to the Church.

Christian faith cannot accept "revelations" that claim to surpass or correct the Revelation of which Christ is the fulfilment, as is the case in certain nonChristian religions and also in certain recent sects which base themselves on such "revelations". (It is the case of the false “private” revelations of Protestant Christians and some sects)

This means that in certain sects also speak of such revelations, but that the Church condemns because are false and contradict the gospel.


CONCLUSION:

Heaven and hell are real, but not like some false prophets describe them.

-In Hell only exists hate to God, so souls do not love and not cry to God for forgiveness and mercy.

-The souls in hell are not punished by demons, but for the righteousness of God. It is God who punishes both souls and demons with the horrors of eternal fire.

-Satan does not rule hell, but God does. God has power in hell, and the devil is not allowed to come and go at will from Hell to tempt men, but is subject to the will of God.

"The demons SUFFER the torment of fire, even when, by Divine permission, they LEAVE the confines of hell and roam about on earth to TEMPT humanity." -Catholic encyclopedia.


CHARACTERISTICS OF FALSE PROPHETS:

Most of what they say have some truth, to confuse and to lead the believer to error, to drag him to the sects or to hate God, the believer know not the true Jesus Christ, but a Christ who preach false prophets as true but it is not.

Satan uses truth to induce to the error and lies. Christianity is now living the most devastating crisis in its history because of the false prophets and their lies.

FALSE PROPHETS CONDEMNED
Ezekiel 13:1-9

1.The word of the Lord came to me:

2 “Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel, who are prophesying, and say to those who prophesy from their own hearts: ‘Hear the word of the Lord!’

3 Thus says the Lord God, Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!

4 Your prophets have been like jackals among ruins, O Israel.

5 You have not gone up into the breaches, or built up a wall for the house of Israel, that it might stand in battle in the day of the Lord.

6 They have seen false visions and lying divinations. They say, ‘Declares the Lord,’ when the Lord has not sent them, and yet they expect him to fulfill their word.

7 Have you not seen a false vision and uttered a lying divination, whenever you have said, ‘Declares the Lord,’ although I have not spoken?”

8 Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Because you have uttered falsehood and seen lying visions, therefore behold, I am against you, declares the Lord God.

9 My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and who give lying divinations. They shall not be in the council of my people, nor be enrolled in the register of the house of Israel, nor shall they enter the land of Israel. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.


IMPORTANT NOTE:

There are many other false prophets which are Mary K Baxter, Bill Wiese, Choo Thomas, 7 Columbian Youths, Ricardo Cid, Jennifer Perez, Pastor Yong-Doo Kim, among others, who say they were taken to heaven and hell but manifest serious doctrinal errors against the faith of the Church.
