How does mainstream Christianity view "Heaven is for Real"?
score:3
Accepted answer
There are many, many things out there that claims similar events happening in their lives. Obviously, it is common sense not to believe all those stories. One story consists of someone visiting hell; one story consists of person going heaven and back.Some stories even tell the tale of being on footsteps on heaven.
How do we deal with these stories? Here is the general answer: Use Bible as Reference.
Check every aspect of the story to the Bible. If they disagree on certain aspects, than the story is definitely wrong.
Bible is not just some sort of story we consult. Bible is The Word.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." - John 1:1.
Everything in the Bible is true, and will be proven true.
"For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished." - Matthew 5:18
