priests mystics and monks who claim to have either seen it in visions have experienced it out of the body or a god showed it to them whereas those who claim it's all nonsense have no experience of it whatsoever and they say because it's not in the bible that it does not exist is one of the uh accusations that has been made to me now i've always been completely open to the concept of ariel toll house as being a possibility i won't leave it out simply because the people who have talked about it and who have said that they do exist are highly respected in both eastern and western christianity people like saint anthony the great uh saint basil the new saint theodora uh abba isaiah it's also in the philocalia which is uh the second most respected book next to the bible in eastern orthodoxy eastern christianity i mean there's just so much weight for the idea of a real toll house that i had to take it seriously and i also did find that in the tibetan book of the dead they also described similar aspects to that of aerial toe houses um the funny thing that happened personally to me was i had a friend who was in a car accident in north carolina he was a passenger and the driver took the car beyond 100 miles per hour in a highway which ended up in a collision the driver died instantly 21 years old whereas my friend who i knew since childhood a personal friend of mine also a christian
had uh he had died in an accident and had a near-death experience where his soul was going up towards heaven towards a light towards a tunnel and in the last minute was grabbed by his ankle and pulled into a torture chamber and this torture chamber many unspeakable acts by demons happened to him he was tortured thrown into a lake filled with piranhas and so on and so forth until he started praying he prayed for uh Jesus to save him in which event he was eventually uh rescued from this torture chamber by a bunch of angels who discussed whether he should uh continue on in the afterlife or go back to this world and he eventually did come out of a coma and is still alive with us today thus far as of 2010
well that that whole experience right there having a personal friend describe to me a reality in the afterlife which was very similar to an aerial toll house the ariel toll house theory definitely lent more credibility and weight to the possibility of this happening
um i have uh one of my old teachers who i consider a fundamentalist a fundamental dogmatic western christian would argue with me for hours and hours on end that aerial toll houses are a bunch of bs basically how do you know that how do you know that so because something is not in the bible does not mean that it does not exist it seems uh what western christians are doing which i will say for a whole another a whole another post here what western christians seem to be doing is as long as something is in the bible that's the only thing that's true whereas within secular knowledge in order to be a mechanic we have to learn outside of the bible we have to learn how a car works well the same principle goes with aerial toll houses we have the situation where because it's not in a bible it can't be true and we just simply cannot go down that route of logic and reasoning um it definitely may be a possibility you know i mean this leaves many doors open to other topics what does it take to get past these aerial tour houses how do we get past them uh for example my friend was a christian who was still falling and going through the battle of the ups and downs of being a christian always versus new ways and he himself as a christian was dragged into a torture chamber by a demon as he says it so this begs the question who is saved what does it take to be saved what does it take to be a christian can we define who is and who isn't a christian can we even make that definition is that our call there's just so many theological questions that surrounds the possibility of aerial toll houses that for the most part people are just not looking at we have this idea that as long as you have accepted jesus as your savior like my friend who personally was in the car accident and experienced some kind of demonic torture chamber well like him we have in western christianity this idea that as long as we accept jesus we are saved but my friend who accepted jesus and supposedly was saved was in a torture chamber that begs the question what what does saved mean what does that mean how can we be sure we are saved i mean it brings up numerical philosophical spiritual theological questions just based on the possibility of these aerial toll houses the same aerial toll houses that mystics saints theologians hermits and certain respected individuals within the church had said that god has shown them to be real that they had seen through prayer from god out of their body in visions and also in near-death experiences people have seen torture chambers in near-death experiences so we cannot completely discredit the idea of the aerial toll house it really well may be a reality that would require us to look into and reconsider what it means to be saved what it means to be a christian what it means to have a safe passage to heaven can we experience heaven while we still are still on earth what does it mean to be a christian that's definitely something to ask however the main point of this post was the aerial toll house it can definitely be a possibility as we see if you have some way to trump this possibility please do post it please do discuss it i am completely open to debating the aerial toll house possibility thank you for listening to these posts these videos and uh i welcome you to listen in to my future posts this is of course an advanced christianity series set of principalities and sermons all up for debate all up for discussion all up for critical thinking i thank you again for stopping by
