Hour 1: Dr. Mark Pitstick, holistic practitioner - TOPIC: Is there an Afterlife?
Hour 2: E-mails / Facebook Comments
Hour 3: EXPLORING THE FAITHS Hour: Pastor Gregory Eason, Big Bethel AME Church in Atlanta, GA - TOPIC: African Methodist Episcopal Church
Are the people who describe this christians or non christians? Guest says they are all faiths and no faith. Why would they want to come back to earth if it was so great in afterlife. Guest says they realize the One is everywhere, and it helps. Some give up addictions, are healthier etc.
Jesse ask did he talk to people who went to hell. Yes he says he has, some people killed themselves. Or they thought they were in hell (or something). HOw you feel when you die, life review are important.
Heaven and hell is here, there is no location up or below. They are states of consciousness.
When Christ died asks Jesse he spoke about going down to the pits of hell, and prior to that they threw satan down to the pit of hell. Guest says they were parables.
Guest says use your common sense.
Jesse says he makes an interesting point about the bible, it is about mans opinion about God. Should people put their faith in the bible. Jefferson says truths in the bible are like diamonds in a dung heap. Some things just don't make sense, some are beautiful.
Listen to your heart. We are one with God.
When we leave our bodies where do we go. Guest says we (body) goes back to earth, (brains) can only pickup 2% of reality, LIfe is energy, light. HEaven and hell...are not literal places, different dimensions, higher refined energy, maybe even where we are...
Jesse asks does he believe in good and evil? Yes he does, there is not a personified evil like the devil...there is a concept of evil.
3rd thing is imbalance...
Fear , ignorance of our higher nature, imbalances (allergies, foods, etc) are reasons people commit evil.
Jesse says that the bible says that all men are evil. Why would it mention it? Guest says that is not what God said it is what the bible says.
Ryan says he believes the same ideas, and asks about dreaming...is that an example of the other consciousness? Guest says while the body is resting the soul is traveling....uh oh! AStral travel?!
Does guest think afterlife is in our own mind. Guest says that a study investigated psychic mediums 87% hit rate, disembodied spirits can report back and give intim ate details. Soulproof.com, radiant101.com
I have an appointment I have to go to, so I have to say good bye for today...
God might have arranged death to be a peaceful death, by making the process loss of consciousness to be seeing a white light. A blessing to all except the sudden violent types of death. and perhaps they did not see It coming and it is instant black out.
We might have experienced fainting ,or similar knock outs in this life. we often have no conscious memory of them.
God is a loving God, ... that none should die, wanting all to come to him and be saved by his deliverance.

1 Thessalonians 5
1.But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
2.For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3.For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4.But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5.Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6.Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
7.For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
8.But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
9.For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
10.Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
11.Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
12.And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
13.And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.
14.Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
15.See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
16.Rejoice evermore.
17.Pray without ceasing.
18.In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
19.Quench not the Spirit.
20.Despise not prophesyings.
21.Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
22.Abstain from all appearance of evil.
23.And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
24.Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it."
