Thanks for the follow up material. I don’t think I was in her class at all when I bought the farm, but it’s nice to know somebody else wrote about it. I appreciate it.
Btw, I left out the worst parts of my little confession for you civilians. Like why I was there in the first place. And I’ll still leave those parts out. But, all things considered, I was lucky to be in purgatory...
Imagine the worst thing you can do but for the best reason.
Had the same dream on the same date every year after I turned 28 or so. Then it just stopped.
Figured it out, looked myself(or whoever) up from 160 or so years ago. Turns out I was my own relative. Hung by the neck until dead in Ireland.
Was basically defending my family, but I crossed the line first and with deadly effect. Not sure if I actually defended my family in the end. It stops after the act. Not sure if it’s real, but my grandmother sure said it was before she passed. Had the papers. Have chests of documents from 300 years ago in fact. The events line up. I just don’t know if I’m the same guy, or it’s just a bizarre coincidence.
But I do know with clarity how I got here after that tour in the grey. That wasn’t ever a dream. Kinda strange. You remember the effect more than the cause. Thought it would be the other way around, but I guess it makes sense. You remember the last place you’ve been usually. Last place before poppin out here wasn’t river dancing in Ireland, so.. there’s that.
Sometimes it is better to start with basics, trust in the verity of His Word and return to faith in our understanding of experience.
For example, the testimony of Gloria Polo, also is remarkably consistent with the conditions of the Torments, which is a chamber in Hades for unbelievers parallel to the area known as Paradise or Abraham’s Bosom prior to the Cross.
The Torments remain until the Great White Throne Judgment.
In regards to your testimony, I don’t doubt your memory or testimony, but I would categorize it first in the domain of spiritual influence. We know from Scripture that unbelievers do not accept the Cross and even consider it foolishness, because it is only spiritually discerned and since they lack that ability to perceive, they naturally tend to categorize the topic as foolishness.
There still remain plenty of unbelievers without regenerated human spirits, who are influenced by deceiving spirits, and sometimes in their dreams.
Your testimony might also be a remembrance of spiritual events. We aren’t reincarnated, but we might be influenced by deceiving spirits, even given thoughts of the experience of others via spiritual deception.
