Re: Finally, Oneness-Trinity debate is settled!

According to Corinthians it is not until death is defeated that God will be all in all.. another words the Son is both in the midst of the throne and is our mediator. So God would be both the one of the Throne and the lamb with seven eyes..

Did he say Jesus had seven eyes?

I know you will welcome this news, as you can all stop arguing about how many persons God is. Both sides can now devote all their energy to spreading the Good News. You are united! Finally!

The eyewitness? A four-year-old boy went to heaven and saw for himself, and brings back his first-hand account. It turns out God is three persons, after all. Colton saw the throne of God, with the Father sitting on it. (He's reeeeeeally big, Colton tells us.) And he saw Jesus on the right hand of the Father. And he saw the Holy Spirit, who was hard to describe. Kind of blue, Colton tells us.

So now you can all breathe a sigh of relief. The war is over. Uh, sorry you guys (most of you) were on the losing side, but I am sure the winners are ready to go to battle with you, side by side now, against the forces of evil.

It's all documented right here: http://www.amazon.com/Heaven-Real-Li.../dp/0849946158.
1 Tim 6:16
Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

No. Colton saw this picture and said "that one’s right":

Jesus also has a purple sash.

Colton probably saw what God intended Him to see...

It has not entered into the hearts of man what he is preparing for us

Did he enlighten us as to HOW we get Jesus in our hearts ? That would be really helpful.

Finished the book. Sorry, but Colton has left us in the dark, on this question.

Learn? That's an interesting question, since I am very doubtful about many aspects of the story. I'm sure the general story, as written, was fairly accurate -- a ruptured appendix, misdiagnosed at first, surgeries, etc. But if Colton saw heaven, as his father claims, it was almost certainly a dream, and almost certainly not an actual visit by his spirit, and almost certainly not a divinely-given dream.

It's interesting that the dad/author often tells of being careful not to plant ideas in Colton's mind, only asking open questions, etc. (Admitting he goofed once, in that regard.) But I'm skeptical about even that aspect of the story. Some believers are, ahem, less than credible, when it comes to tales of supernatural events. It's possible this man is being honest, and it's also possible he has stretched the truth beyond the breaking point. Colton being only 4 years old at the time, it's easy enough to imagine he has both fuzzy and maleable memories now, several years later -- interview him and he'll very likely either verify everything in the book or simply have no memory of some of it.

There were some "fishy" things, as most of these kinds of stories have. Not that this disproves anything. E.g., in explaining why they waited so long to write a book about this, one reason (among other, more reasonable reasons he listed) was that they (the mom and dad) just couldn't believe that anyone would want to read about (paraphrasing here) little ole "us". Pfft. False humility is worse than blatant pride, if you ask me.

Anyway, what did I learn? If I were to take the book at face value, I suppose it was new to me that the Holy Spirit is kind of blue, and that he sends power down to preachers who need help with their sermons.
