23 Minutes in Hell?

When I was in Scammon Bay, Alaska, someone handed me an audio recording of the testimony of Bill Wiese, the author of the book, 23 Minutes in Hell. Interestingly, a few weeks later, there was someone making the rounds of the villages making similar claims.

It seems that I am asked to comment about this every few months. Let me give my official statement concerning this testimony as it relates to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, by presenting it in the form of a question:

WHEN GOD'S ONE AND ONLY SON, JESUS CHRIST, SUFFERED THE WRATH OF ALMIGHTY GOD UPON CALVARY'S TREE FOR THE SINS OF ALL THE ELECT, WAS CHRIST'S TESTIMONY NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO BE PROCLAIMED THE GOOD NEWS?

My Bible tells me that "the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy" (Revelation 19:10).

Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, according to Scripture alone, for God's glory alone. Salvation is NOT by faith in Christ plus a testimony of someone who escaped "hell" because of Christ; it is in Christ alone for His finished work upon a criminal's cross.

Keep that in mind if you choose to what this embedded video:
