The Death
On August 3, 1979, Howard Pittman suffered a massive internal hemorrhage. As doctors frantically fought to save his life, his spirit suddenly left his body. Standing in the corner of the room, he watched his own physical body below, marking the beginning of a journey that would change his life—and potentially yours—forever.
The Second Heaven
Escorted by angels, he was led through the Second Heaven, a frightening realm of spiritual darkness located just above our earth. Here, he witnessed the hierarchy of demons, their grotesqueness, and their relentless, organized strategies to deceive and destroy humanity.
The Placebo
He saw how Satan uses a "spiritual placebo"—false comfort and dead religion—to keep believers asleep. This deception tricks Christians into thinking they are pleasing God while they are actually living for themselves, inoculated to the true power of the Gospel.
The Way Home
Amidst the darkness, he was shown the glorious Tunnel of Light, the safe passage for the saints of God protected by the Holy Spirit. A breathtaking vision of the protection and peace available to those who truly belong to Him, cutting through the demonic void.
The Judgment
Detailed and terrifying, Pittman stood before the Gates of Heaven only to be denied entrance. He learned the shocking definition of "Dead Works" and was told by God with thunderous finality that his 35 years of ministry simply did not count as true service.
The Commission
Mercy prevailed. God granted him an extension of physical life with a specific commission to this generation: "Go tell them this!" He was given a searing Five-Point Message from the Throne Room involving Faith, the Sovereignty of God, and the urgency of our time.
The Message
Howard Pittman woke up in the hospital room, healed and on fire. He has since traveled the world sharing this message. Read the full account of his experience, the warnings he received, and the detailed revelation of the "Placebo" that threatens the modern church.
