Another fictional "I've been to heaven" book

1) She's a teacher? I say take the nutjob's credentials away. (unlessun yous dunt need um n Oaktreehomer)

2) I'm guessing she never passes a fast food restaurant without stopping. (can't Jesus heal obesity?)

3) I think Drich may be referring to the judgment.

Not just judgement. Not all who stand before God are 'judged' in their meeting. all who stand before God know of or felt the completeness of the Love God offers. This love, or the want to return to it is everything. It will consume you. the only reason one would choose to return here (to this life) as apposed to staying there, is because as an expression of your love to God, you would go because you were asked to complete a given task. Nothing this world offers trumps the Love/Agape of God.

The paradox here is that if she were not asked to return, because she loved something here more (kid, husband etc..) She would not be worthy of God's Love there. So to return for any other reason than full filling a given task puts her in violation of the primary Command we have been given.

Not to say she did not see or experience something, it's just what she saw/experienced does not completely jive with what the bible says. in adittion we have been warned to be wary of messages (and or visions) that contradict with scripture.
