Hindu snake goddess saw Jesus in dream and became His witness | God Reports

Last year, Nagamma performed black magic in the home of a family with a small child when something unusual happened. “Satan instructed me that there is golden treasure in that house, so I had to sacrifice a child of below three-months-old to find that treasure.”
However, a spiritual battle ensued for the life of the child. As the supernatural warfare raged around her, suddenly Nagamma became troubled and disturbed. “I could not complete the black magic and left that house,” she says.
When she went to sleep in the evening, she had a remarkable dream.
“I had a dream that a bright and beautiful man came to me and sat beside me. I noticed my room was full of light and there was no darkness at all. The man showed me His hands.” ......

Interesting that when Jesus spoke to her about being saved, that he wasn't speaking of something in the future, but in our coming in and going out, in other words our daily lives.

That's not my interpretation. He's talking about the freedom of heaven.

“I had a dream that a bright and beautiful man came to me and sat beside me. I noticed my room was full of light and there was no darkness at all. The man showed me His hands.”
His hands were nail-scarred, bearing the marks of crucifixion.
“My daughter, you are dear to me,” He said. “I am your Lord and God. I give you the treasure of peace and eternal life.”
“I am the gate,” He continued. “Those who come in by me will be saved; they will come in and go out and find pasture. The thief comes in only to steal, kill, and destroy. I have come in order that you might have life – life in all its fullness.”

Yes, experiencing heaven on earth. Your Kingdom(the reign of heaven) come reveal yourself in me. The gate is the way into experiencing the reign of heaven in our lives(our coming and going)

those in heaven can also cross the gate to here on earth, and elsewhere,
the coming and going applies both ways, because they take the heavenly
state with them wherever they go. we cannot attain heaven here on earth,
we must die and be judged first, that's how it is until the Second Coming.
this is demonstrated in Revelations, when men shall seek death but not find it,
as they are judged where they stand. But until then, we do have to die.
Which is why Christ told the thief on the cross he would be with Him in
paradise, on that day (after he died, not before).

Heaven is within us.

Actually, she said he quoted a Bible verse. That verse has nothing to do with heaven on earth.

Ok , Pastor what is it about ?. Your opinion by the way, not something from a commentary.

“My daughter, you are dear to me( if that isn't heaven here on earth to you i don't know what is)” He said. “I am your Lord and God ( if that isn't heaven on earth to you i don't know what is). I give you the treasure of peace and eternal life ( if that isn't heaven here on earth to you i don't know what is)
“I am the gate,” He continued. “Those who come in by me will be save.

We are the earth where the seed of God is sown. The seed which is IN all men( and all ladies)

Perhaps the problem, pcamps, is the perception of Heaven. It is seen as perfect in all aspects and so naturally what is here on earth can't be that. I would say that what you are talking about is experiencing the "Heaven attitude," the knowledge of God's love and the fullness that brings to life here on earth. I can't imagine anyone missing that point.
