I will tell the truth here because I have never read the book or seen the movie and quite frankly I would never watch or read Heaven is for real because they both add to scripture, which is forbidden by God. Revelation 22:18-19 says I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
There have only been three detailed accounts of three people seeing heaven: The Apostle Paul, Steven right before he was stoned he saw Jesus in Heaven in the book of Acts and the Apostle John who provides us with accurate information about his vision of Heaven. I want to turn my attention onto The Apostle Paul because in second Corinthians, he did not want to share his experience when he was in Heaven. The reason being is that Paul was humbled by God to not share what he witnessed and heard while in Heaven so he spoke in the third person.
Read 2nd Corinthians 12:2-5.
It is obvious to me that Colton is lying about his heaven tour also in his book why does he not share the gospel or tell anyone about how to get to Heaven? he only wants to make money
