Visions of Hell

This is an excerpt from evangelist Mark Cahill’s book, “One Thing You Can’t Do in Heaven,” concerning a conversation that he had with Darryl, the brother of basketball star, Charles Barkley.

When Charles went into another room, Darryl told me, “You know, I had a heart attack a couple of months ago.” Then he added, “I saw something.”

You have probably heard about near-death experiences, where some people who briefly died reportedly saw a tunnel and a white light. But many people see other things, and Darryl did not have the typical experience. He told me that when his heart stopped, his spirit rose up out of his body, and he could look down and see his body on the operating table. He explained that his spirit took off on a journey. Suddenly he saw trees burning, the ground smoldering around the trees, and a lake of fire in front of him. I asked, “What did you see?”

“I saw Hell.”

null “You saw Hell? Darryl, if you would have died, where would you have gone?”

He said confidently, “I would have gone to Hell.”
