It is not from God.If it were the Bible would have told me about this wonderful experience.And I know that is not the way the rapture is going to happen.I would therefore be cautious of something Satan possibly has cooked up.I would pray and ask God to guide me and direct me and show me the way to deal with this strange phenomenon.I would try to get around it.
Interesting question Edward...I liked it.
Well, here's the thing. I listened to a testimony (video) of a man who talked about being taken up in the spirit and was shown portals from none other than Jesus Himself. Now, I was skeptical about this so have been doing some research in scriptures to see if there is indeed anything about it in the bible. Surprisingly enough...there could be. My study of this also took me to other videos and teachings from other believers that gave testimony (and scriptures) that seem to support this idea. Some of the scriptures I will post for your perusal.
Personally, I like to remain open minded to receive new truths. In the end times, knowledge will be increased so I find myself willing to look at new things open minded, just in case. I haven't posted anything (not too much, lol) about it before because, well...I bring enough wild ideas to the board and don't want to ruffle any feathers, but there just may be something to this. Personally, If I came upon a portal, I would step through it. My God is an awesome God and is almighty powerful. If it were a Satanic portal, the Lord would not let me get in over my head and would perhaps give me words of knowledge as warning to not step through. If I did step through a satanic portal, what could they do to me? Demons and evil spirits are easier to deal with than your average human. They have to flee at the sound of Jesus name.
Maybe we just don't realize what we're reading about in certain scriptures, but they're possibly portals? We know very little about how the spiritual realm operates.
The "Jacobs Ladder" story in Genesis...What's he talking about here? Did a portal open in the sky to where he could see the Angels ascending and descending?
Genesis 28
17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven./
The gate of Heaven? This was after he woke up from the dream even. Interesting.
Looking back at scriptures, many times I see where the Lord told different people to go somewhere or other and that He would talk to them. Now why would he tell them to go to such and such a spot? Is that where a portal is? If the spiritual realm is parallel and everywhere, and they can materialize to us anywhere they choose...why the instruction to go here or there? And when people in scriptures say...and I saw the heavens open...what do they mean by that? They saw a portal open?
I'd shove my friend in and see what would happen... j/k
That's one way to do it! lol. In one video testimony that I watched, the man said his friend was starting to get on the freeway (he was on the phone), he screamed and dropped the phone (his friend thought he must've got into an accident. He said a portal opened and he couldn't do anything except drive into it. Suddenly he was driving down the street of the church that he was to be a guest speaker at, which was normally a 4 1/2 hour drive away but here he was, early. On the way home, it happened again.
This is some farout stuff and I do not know if it is real or not. But for all I know, it could be.
