dear Friend, January 1st, 2000, 5 am

in the morning, I was in the large

desert, dry and infertile. The wind was

so heavy and weather was so hot. I

saw a lot of weird and disgusting

animals that I�ve never seen before in

my life. I walked step by step through

the desert till I found my self in a

gloomy place.

I had strange feeling that time and I

could feel the pain spread to all of my

bones. The situation was silent and

dark. No wind blew. Dark cloud

appeared surround that place.

I could not describe it in better

words� because there was only

horrified of hell!

A huge gate appeared in front of me. I

felt nervous and worried but I tried to

open that gate anxiously. It was not

difficult to open it. I opened it and

shocked because there was another

gate bigger than the first one. It was

written on top of that gate �VALLEY

OF TORTURE�.

There was a doubt in my heart

implicitly, whether I should continue

this trip or not. But something that

powerful inside of me made me to go

on. My heart beat was loud as I could

hear it my self while I opened the next

gate and�Oh my God!... I could not

believe�I could not believe what I

saw�but it was real.

There was a long dark path in front of

me. I stood in the side of the gate

watching and predicting how large and

long that path was but I could not see it

clearly. I saw a vogue rise up in the

end of that path. I thought it was

terrible ocean of fire!

Along way I walked in that dark path, I

saw many people were tortured by

creatures wearing black clothes and

having horns in their heads. I saw they

were so cruel in torturing everyone

there before they were put into the fire

ocean at the end of the path. I heard

affecting tears and pain mix up with

dirty laugh sounds in that dirty place.

At the edge of the path, there was a

young woman whose hands were

bound at a piece of wood and she was

surrounded by a lot of horned

creatures who made fun of her and

laugh at her. I saw her face was pail

and white filled by fear. A strange

weapon that I have never seen before

was swinging in front of her face. I did

not know exactly what it was but it

was like a fork with a sharp cutting

edge in the top of it. That weapon was

carried by one of the horned devils

which surrounded that woman. I heard

the devils were threatening that poor

frightened woman, �Lie!... Common,

lie!!!�

I saw her become more frightened. She

was completely fell into the power of

that horned devils so that she obeyed

them whatever they want. That woman

answered,� Yes, yes, I lied! I lied!�

All of the devils were laugh, seems that

they were satisfied with the young

woman�s answer. I though after that

woman did everything that they want,

they will be released her. But what

happened next was really made me

shock! The devil stabbed that horrible

thing into her face! The fresh blood

squirted from her face! It was so

horrifying! Her face did not have a

shape anymore and her cried of pain

so heartbreaking!

�Stop! Stop it!� I yelled.

But it strange, they could not heard my

voice; even more my appearance

seemed invisible for them! I felt

disgusted for everything that I saw, but

there were a lot of other views that

surprise me and made me shock!

Then, I saw a man whose hair was

burnt, only rotten skull remain. There

were unburnable maggots come out

from his skull cavity. He was lying and

carrying from the end of the path not

far from fire, I thought that they

tortured him for a long time. His body

was burning and his flesh was melting

because he was lying near the hottest

fire ever!

The devils who carried him were

laughing at him. There was nothing he

could do besides surrender him self to

them. He was dying but he could not

die. He looked like having terrible pain,

seemed he wanted to say something

for mercy. One of those devils said,�

Common, masturbate! Masturbate!!�

That man shaking answered, �Yes, I

masturbate! I masturbate! Aaaahhhhh!

� He was screaming and a lot of

maggots come out from all of his

body� so many!! I felt disgusted when

I saw it, even when I heard his

screaming �so horrible�!!!

There were more screaming and

commanding that I heard. �Common,

drink! Drink! Gambling! Deceive!� and

those devils were laughing and

enjoying the moaning of pain and tears,

as they were listening wonderful

music. I was afraid to walk in through

that path. I only saw as far as I could

and I was sure there were more kind

of tortures at that place which is more

appropriate to be called barracks of

torture.

I found a view that made me really

shock, there were many righteous and

religion people there!! I did not believe

it but I did not have power to deny all

that I saw. I heard all their screaming

when they were being tortured. They

cried out for God, �God, help me! God,

do I always be together with You? You

tough us at our towns and I served You

Lord!�

They were begging to God but

salvation had already close for them,

till I heard they abused Him! My heart

was breaking when I saw it! After that I

was in the top of the horrible

situation� I could not do that

�journey� anymore. And I believed if

I continued this journey, I will have

been dead! �God� I cried �Please

bring me out from here! Please

God�� All of these were a vision, a

horrible vision �vision of Hell! I was so

happy when I found out that I was at

home, even though after that I got ill

for couple days. All of my bones and

pivots were hurt; I suffered stomach

disorder and got shock day by day.

I prayed to God and wondered what

it�s all about, what He wants through

my experience. God gave me

understanding and deep burden for

people around me. God wants me to

tell what have been happened and will

be happened to everyone. A lot of them

are having fun, eating, drinking, having

party, free sex, drugs and others

seems that they can enjoy them

forever. They do not realize that hell

and the horned devils are waiting for

them. They are the next victims.

I know that God really loves you. This

�vision� that is showed to me proof

that He still gives you a chance to

repent.

My dear friend, I have to write this

article to warn you. I do not want you

having the same experiences as those

people there. Truly, I love you all and I

hope you will meditate all of these and

repent. Accept Jesus Christ as your

savior personally and start a new life

and do not come out from the road that

Jesus has decided to us.

God Bless You.

Your friend, Philip Mantofa.
