Hell is a Christian Hoax 37
Contradiction #31
Bill assures us that his journey to hell was real. It really happened:
"This was not a dream-I was actually in this strange place" (23 Minutes, p. xiii).
"I have since discovered that my story coincides with what Scripture details about hell" (p. xv).
"This wasn't a nightmare; it was real" (p. xiv).
"The reason I was shown this place was to bring back a message of warning. My story is not one to condemn, but rather to inform you that hell is a real place-It does exist" (p. xiv).
"Those twenty-three minutes were MORE THAN ENOUGH to convince me that I would never, ever want to return, not for ONE MORE MINUTE" (p. xvi ).
And now once again it is time for Bill's big lie:
"One day ( the next day) after the November 22, 1998, experience, I was going to drop off some business related paperwork at a friend's home...While driving to their home, I voiced to the Lord, 'Lord can you simply CONFIRM THAT I TRULY WAS THERE LAST NIGHT?...could You show me JUST A GLIMPSE OF THAT PLACE AGAIN for just a few seconds?' I pulled up in front of their home and parked. SUDDENLY I WAS IN HELL ONCE MORE" (23 Minutes, p. 56). (CAPS are mine). I am speechless! Is there anything in this man's fabulous story that he doesn't contradict and lie about, time after time after time?
Just one day after Bill supposedly visited this Christian hell, he doubted that it ever happened, and needed God to show him this place once more. But we, the readers and dumb sheep, are supposed to swallow Bill's unscriptural and incredible swill, as our very eternal destiny depends on our believing what even he could not believe! Is there still one reader out there who actually believes one word of this contradicting, evil, unscriptural swill?
Bill and his team will probably sue me over my honest appraisal of his ridiculous book, yet he himself confesses: "Why would ANYONE BELIEVE ME? They will think I had a BAD DREAM, or that I AM CRAZY." I wholeheartedly agree with Bill's statement except for one word-I would have used the word "and" rather than the word "or" in his above statement, because that is what we think.
Contradiction #32
We are told these "demons" are the Devil's angels, and this fire was made especially for the pain and torture of the Devil and his angels, yet these demons don't seem to mind the heat at all. Rather, these demons are enjoying their stay in hell according to Bill:
"...my torment would be their amusement" (23 Minutes, p. 5).
"The creatures ( demons, the Devil's angels) , seemed to derive pleasure in the pain and terror they inflicted upon me" (23 Minutes p. 6).
"Asking for mercy from such evil only seemed to heighten their desire to torment me more" (23 Minutes p. 7).
No, Bill lies - The Bible knows nothing of demons amusing themselves or deriving pleasure from torturing billions of people in the fires of an eternal hell. Show me one Scripture? There are none.
And how is it possible that spirit beings such as Satan the Devil and demons, can experience physical pain from physical fire? I thought that as spirit beings, they are at home in such fire?
So this place was made for the Devil and his angels, but these demons that Bill describes are apparently having a good time in Hell-"heighten their desire...deriving pleasure...and being amused." Just maybe Satan is not physically tortured in fire, and just maybe the Devil's angels are not even spiritual angelic beings at all. Just who are "the Devil's angels?" Later when I give you the Scriptural answer to this enigma, it will shock you and knock your socks off.
Contradiction #33
When Bill returned from his journey, he wanted water:
"He asked me (Annette) for a glass of water: (23 Minutes, p. 47). "My wife (Annette) gave me a glass of water" (From another video on Bill's site).
"One of the first things he asked for was a glass of water, and I (Annette) got that for him, and he calmed down and told me what happened to him" (From a second video on Bill's site).
"I remember being amazed as I looked at the water in the glass Annette handed to me. It was life in a glass I gulped it down and asked for another - I never wanted to be thirsty again. After the second glass was finished, my wife and I returned to the bedroom" (p. 47).
And so on numerous occasions in the book, videos, and scripts, we learn that:
( 1) Bill requested water from his wife, Annette.
( 2) Annette gave Bill a glass of water.
( 3) He desired a second glass, which Annette also gave to him.
Now that seems pretty simple and straight forward. Both Bill and Annette seem consistent in the manner by which Bill received two glasses of water. Bill goes into detail about how he felt about this water, and that it was life-giving water, and that he even wanted a second glass of water, which Annette also brought to him.
But then on another of Bill's videos, Annette contradicts all of the above statements regarding her getting Bill a glass of water when she states: "He (Bill, not Annette) ran to the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water."
So Annette didn't get Bill a glass of water. Bill did not muse over the glass of water that Annette brought him. Annette did not bring her husband a second glass of water. No, Bill himself, "...ran to the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water" for himself. How, pray tell, are we to believe Bill OR his wife? This is but another blatant contradiction and fabrication. There is no possible way to harmonize these two contradicting scenarios.
Contradiction #34
How many Scriptures did Bill find to back up every one of his experiences in hell? Well, like almost everything he says, it depends on which book, script or video you believe.
"So I knew that if what I experienced was true, it would already be there in the words ( the words of the Bible) . So I began to research and I found over 400 scriptures that depicted everything I saw, heard, felt, everything to do with Hell. It's already in the Bible, so whatever I'm telling you it's already there. I'll make reference to some of the scriptures as we go. I can't quote all 400, but I will for some of them" (From 23 Minutes Script, p. 4).
But then Bill contradicts himself all through his writings and lectures with statements like this:
"To my surprise, I discovered that there are approximately 150 verses that reveal some aspect of hell, together confirming everything I had experienced" (23 Minutes in Hell, p. 81).
Now it isn't that he first found 150 verses, but then through more extensive searching he found 250 more verses bringing the total to 400 verses. No, that is not how we are told this happened. It was after seven years of research that Bill came up with 150 verses rather than 400. Here's the proof. One of Bill's defenders states the following: " Since this life-changing ordeal, he ( Bill) has spent the last seven years studying the Scriptures to find answers and has listed more than 150 Bible verses referencing hell."
What happened to the other 250 verses that he found earlier?
Truth be known, Bill didn't find even one verse of Scripture that defends his damnable teaching - not ONE. I can't go through 150 verses that Bill says pertain to an eternal hell, as that would take another hundred pages or so depending on how much detail and explanation I would use. But I will give you here a couple examples of how Bill perverts the Scriptures.
