Christians- Have you read the book Heaven is so real by Choo Thomas?

Question

I have, and I have no idea what to believe. Someone said today that she is a servant of Satan, as the devil come to her instead of Jesus. I did not agree with everything in her book, as I believe the experiences have to line up with the bible. A lot of me think her book is garbage. Jesus came to her telling her this is your Lord. Satan thinks he is lord. I enjoyed reading some things in the book. Didn't Jesus say in the last days' that there will be a lot of false prophets? so Christians I am just curious if you have read it, what do you think about the book? Jesus took her into Heaven and told her that the only ones that can enter his kingdom is the pure hearted and obiedient children. That rules most of us out then. The bible says that he who believs is not comdemed but have passed from death to life. She talks about Jesus showing her her parents burning in hell as they were not christians. Why would she be shown her parents, instead of someone else?

Answer 1

I have never read it but I would be cautious as it doesn't sound like God would do anything as hurtful as show someones parents in hell. Beware of false prophets and those who speak through dead people. If it doesn't line up with the bible throw it away. There was a book written by a Eddy woman that was simply new age and that's what this sounds like.

Answer 2

hi there, i've read most of the book. First of all i'll say we should test all things and hold fast to that which is good. Also no one has the right to say something should be accepted without question. even the bereans in acts did so with paul etc (and found what he said to be true) so its our responsibility to do so. Secondly i'll point out that back in the day a prophet had to be 100% accurate or be stoned. Presumption to speak for God is a serious thing, any less than 100% is unacceptable and makes someone a false prophet. However concerning the book, from what i read theres nothing that made me say outright 'aha this is definetly a lie!' (although i didn't finish) but i wasn't sure how accurate some fo it was, so i personally 'put it on the shelf' as such (as you can do with anything 'prophetic'). I would like to address though, there would be nothing wrong with Jesus showing her parents in hell. There will be people in hell, they'll probaly have to be someones parents. all of jesus' parables addressed Gods fiery judgement. He did emphasize it. Judgment day makes sense of his whole mission (and both of his comings, past and future one). It is also accurate to say only the pure hearted as the bible says without holiness no man can see God. He also says those who love me will do as i've commanded them. Now i will emphasize it does not mean that we are saved through works. We are saved through grace....to good works, to the glory of the father, to be like Jesus, to be like God, which is to be holy. Any branch that doesn't produce fruit will be cut off. So the salvation came by grace through faith, but faith without works is dead. Its like this if you do what necessary to recieve salvation(trust in jesus and repentance) then you will begin to produce fruit (almost autonomously because the holy spirit will change who you are) but if you're not producing fruit(in the long run[can be personal changes and actions towards others etc, usually in that order]) it means you probably are just saved or that you have forsaken the true faith (to trust in self righteousness, ie going ot church etc or to trust that everyone is 'good' enough to make, ie any trust towards something other than Jesus Christ alone to save from death and Gods judgement upon each mans sin). But to summarize, i couldn't find anything outright blasphemous in what i read and think much of it could be helpful and at least it should provoke you to examine exactly what jesus (and then paul. peter etc) taught exactly.

Answer 3

I mostly just get on here to read questions and answers, not to actually answer myself, but I feel that I just had to answer yours. No I have not read the book, and don't want to. I have read alot of your questions and alot of your answers and I personally think you have a big problem!!!!! You claim to be Christian and have had conversations with Jesus and God and even Satan, but you have a potty mouth while still yet you condemn others to hell while you are as a matter of fact as you say, going to be in the rapture. Talk about WOW. I'm not calling you a liar on your experiences with meeting with whom ever, but you seem like a hypocrite to me. I guess to each his own.

Answer 4

I've never read this book. I've put some inquires out about it to find out. To be honest I am initially wary of anyone who claims to have gone on multiple trips to Heaven with Christ Himself as an escort.

Stick to the Bible, you can't go wrong. God Bless!

Answer 5

How many times are you going to post this one question? This makes it about 3 or 4 times now.

No I haven't read the book.

Answer 6

i have not even heard of the book.

but i do know that heaven is so close to each of us.
I have visitations of spirits almost on a daily basis, I can sense the desire to share a message but the veil is so hard to break through it density.
try studying the book of mormon and you will find something greater than what you think is so great.

God bless.
