-----HOST SPEAKING:---------
In 1992, a Korean American by the name of Choo
Thomas, becomes a born again Christian. What makes this story
unique is that two years after her conversion,
Choo was visited by Jesus Christ of Nazareth. She was subsequently
escorted to heaven several times and shown
hell twice.
Choo Thomas has written a book about her
experiences; the book is called “Heaven is so Real” and it was
published on October 2003.
Within a year of being published, this book
has become an international bestseller as well as a top ten Christian
Charismatic book in the United States.
How does a simple housewife, who speaks
limited English, not only manage to publish a book, but within a year of
being published, it becomes an international
bestseller ? But perhaps an even more important question is why these
revelations now.
“Heaven is so Real” and this is the story of
Choo Thomas.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
“Well…
Heavenly Father, thank you for allowing me to
testify. Halleluiah. I become Christian since in 1992 and I literally
fell in love with Jesus after I went to church
a few times and I wanted to give every area of my being to Him the
rest of my life…So…
And I want to speak briefly about a book
called “Heaven is so Real”. The Lord Jesus Himself took me to heaven
seventeen times with my transformed body, like
when I was 15 or 16 years old. Before this, He prepared
everything step-by-step. 1994 He anointed me
my entire body with Holy Fire, then a month later, He showed me
with His visual presence at the church during
worship service. Then 1995, Easter Sunday, He anointed me with
shaking body and ever since, my body shakes at
the church, during my prayer time. You see, my body is moving
back and forth right now, if I don’t do this,
my stomach get very tight and it feel like exploding; that’s why I’m
moving back and forth. So please don’t think
anything wrong with my body. That’s the Holy Spirit doing this
because I’m talking about Jesus, that’s why.
And then, after this, He baptized me with Holy Spirit, with new
tongues, Heavenly songs, Holy Laughter and I
was so anointed for three hours and I was on the floor, I couldn’t
get up because it was too powerful. After
that, few months later, pastor Larry Randolf, he prophesized for me that
he told me that the God wants to use me in
such a special way. And all his prophecy was come true , thousand
times, more. And after this, January, 1996 ,
Lord Jesus, He was visiting me with His visual presence. And He
visited me for 10 times to tell me how He
going to use, and the all the things, His plans and He was telling me
about it, as in the book. But He didn’t tell
me He was going to take me to Heaven. So, after 10 times, February 19,
96, He began to take me to Heaven with my
transformed body, like His Spirit body, my body. Each time, before
He took me to Heaven, He brought me to the
beach, earthly beach. The very first time before he took me Heaven,
He took me to one side of the beach He showed
me small body of water crystal clear then He showed me huge
shiny tunnel. So after that he took me to
heaven
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
“After going through the tunnel, Choo writes:
“The Lord and I walked along the road that
came down from the top of the hill. Eventually we reached a huge
white gate that stood in front of a large
white building. We walked through the gate and proceeded towards the
white building. We entered and walked down a
long corridor that led to a very large room. Which we entered . As I
looked down, I realized for the first time
that I was wearing a different robe than I had on at the beach, and I could
feel something heavy was resting on my head. I
reached up and discovered a beautiful crown had been placed there
without my realizing it. Then I looked
directly at the Lord. He was sitting on a throne, and He wore a radiant gown
and golden crown. Others were there with me,
kneeling on the floor and prostrating themselves before Him. The
walls of the room were made of large shiny
stones that glowed. The multicolored rocks provided an effect that
made the room seem warm and happy, as well as
mysterious. Then, just as quickly as I had been transported up the
mountain and into the white building, I found
myself on the beach again.

--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
Very first time He only showed me His throne
room. Then after that we came down from heaven and the, we were
sitting on the sand on earthly beach. And then
He began to talk. He say, We just went to Kingdom of Heaven. The
only one who will come there are obedient and
pure hearted and He say preaching gospel is very important and He
waited for awhile and He say those who don’t
tithe, they are disobedient Christians. That was the last word He say
the first trip.
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
Choo went on to visit heaven 16 more times, in
each of these visits, she writes:
“In my transformed body, I walked with the
Lord on the beach, and then He escorted me to heaven. We walked
through the pearly gates and went to the white
building to change our clothing. After changing, we walked across
the golden bridge. It all was becoming so
natural to me. Each believer, I’m sure, will go through the same
procedure when he or she goes to heaven.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
After that, He took me to heaven 16 more
times. Each time He took me there, He showed me different things. And
when He showed me special things, always, he
was saying that I prepared this for my children, I know what they
like. Like when He showed me beach, you see
daughter how beautiful this beach is, I know my children like this
beach and when He took me to fishing, I know
my children like fishing, that’s why I prepare so many things what
they like and I realized in heaven is well a
thousand times beautiful than on Earth, but a lot of things like on Earth
like roads, buildings, trees, bushes, rocks,
flowers, rough places outside the kingdom; there are so many things
there; but that they are thousand times
beautiful on Earthly things, just beautiful. The beauty of heaven is
indescribable and I can’t even describe how
beautiful they are, just beautiful. And the, I realize how much Jesus
loves each and every one of us. The way He
talked to me was saying that “you see how much I love my children
and I did all these things for my children”,
you know. That is why He took me there to show what He prepared for
His children, so let each and everyone know
what heaven is waiting for us, so before He comes, He want all the
Christians to know this things, so they can be
excited and go there. That is why I believe He showed me these
things. He doesn’t tell me everything, you
know, thoroughly, He just show me some certain things, just say very
few words, necessary words He tells me. That’s
loving God He is. Praise you Lord.
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
Besides experiencing heaven, Choo was also
show hell twice.
She described hell vision as follows: I could
see fumes and dark smoke rising from a deep pit. It was like the crater
of a volcano, and inside I could see flames
scorching a multitude of people who were screaming and crying in the
kind of agony that only the severely burned
truly know.
The people were naked, without hair, and
standing close to one another, moving like worms, and the flames were
scorching their bodies. There was no escape
for those who were captured in the pit-its walls were too deep for
them to climb, and hot coals of fire were all
around the edges.
The flames would leap out unexpectedly from
all directions. People would move away, and then as soon as they
seemed to think that they were safe, another
fire would burst forth. There was no rest for these unfortunate victims
of sin; they were doomed to spend all eternity
being scorched and burned as they endeavored to escape the flames
of hell. “Who are these people?” I asked. “My
daughter, these people did not know Me.”
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
In heaven whatever he showed me was such an
exciting thing and awesome things but next, He showed me Hell.
He took me to hell, the first thing I seen
inside was all fire, but it was deep, dark, endless hole. People were naked,
with no hair. They didn’t have no hair, they
didn’t have no clothes on, all naked body. They were standing so close
to each other. Seems like they are, they were
pushing each other against because they want to get away from the
fire. Each time they move, the fire follow
them, back and forth, back and forth, just whole place was fire, and these
people were standing so close to each other.
They looked so pain and sad and I couldn’t help crying so much for
them. Then he took there a second time and I
saw same people again. Then I heard voices and I looked a the
directions, so many Orientals there. And this
one lady, she was waving at me, saying so hot, so hot. I looked at her
and our eyes meet each other. That my mother.
When I realized it was my mother, my heart dropped and I began to
cry. I have never felt such a pain, just pain.
So pain, I didn’t know what to do. And she kept saying hot, hot and she
was waving at me. And the way I seen it, she
wanted me to come down and help her. Then I looked, other people,
there was my dad, my stepmother, my young
nephew, he died very young and two friends that I knew. Oh, that
was such a painful memory and I keep crying
crying crying, then the Lord Jesus told me “daughter, I have a good
reason to show you this, but I am hurting more
than you are”. Uumm. And I told Him, Lord, my mother, she died
young, she has been sick for a very long time.
I don’t think she was a bad person. He say, not matter how good
people they are, whoever don’t know me, that’s
the only place they go. But in my heart saying, why are you
showing me this to hurt me this way. I thought
about that, but I could never angry at Him. I couldn’t see His face,
but I could tell He was crying with me. I just
feel that. He looked so sad, then He touch my head, took my hand,
we walked out there and I was crying the whole
time we were walking. In the book, I explained the very details,
so, then, next visiting he showed me another
sad thing. It was aborted babies. He took me to this one place it was a
huge building. They looked like warehouse.
When we walked in it, all I see was babies, tiny, tiny naked babies.
And they were lying side by side. Humm, and I
began to cry. Lord, why is so many babies. He say, they aborted
babies. I said what are you going to do with
them. He say If their mother be saved and they come to heaven, they
will have their baby back. That was it.
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
On her 17th trip to heaven, Jesus told Choo
that this would be her last trip to heaven. On this she writes:
“His words stirred me deeply. My heart
actually ached with love for my Lord. He stood up, and I knew it was time
for us to leave. I continued to cry, but my
heart was reassured with the knowledge I would be with the Lord forever
and that He would always be with me on earth.
At the dressing room, an angel of the Lord embraced me. It was so
exhilarating to be in a place where so much
love, compassion and understanding were always present. As I
changed my clothing, I surmised that both
Abraham and the angel knew this would be my last visit to heaven. As I
walked out of the changing room, the angel
hugged me once more. This angel had blond hair, flowing white robes
and a face that was tender and warm. The angel
smiled at me as I walked towards the Lord.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
When the Lord Jesus took me to heaven 17th
time, He showed me clouds. And that was the end of my visitation in
Heaven. The Lord Jesus told me this is the
last time you are here. I will not bring you here until the last day. I just
felt I knew this, that was the last day. And I
began to cry, because I didn’t want to leave there. I was holding His
arm and I said Lord, please don’t let me go, I
don’t want to go because I want to come here over and over. It was
very very sad for me, that I couldn’t go there
anymore, because each time I went with Him in heaven, I saw sad
things, but joy peace, I can never explain,
never can explain the joy, peace I had there. Even sad, I still had the joy,
the peace. So much love, I cried many days for
that.
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
The Bible talks about a day when Jesus Christ
will come again for His church. In 1 Thessalonians 4: 16, it reads
“For the Lord himself will come down from
heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and
with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in
Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will
be caught up together with them in the clouds
to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever”
This is know as the rapture.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
After all that, about a couple of weeks later,
Lord Jesus, He brought me to the beach with my spirit body and His.
And we sit usual place, then we talked for
awhile and the, He told me, I will show you something. The minute He
say that, I had a vision voice. Every time He
shows me something special, I get a special vision voice that is
coming my inner body, stomach. It was so loud
and this vision voice took very long time. Then I could hear noises,
such such a loud loud noises, I felt the whole
world was coming down, so loud, just horrible noises. Then I look,
whole air was white. People with white robe
flying everywhere, just keep popping out, popping out, just disappear,
popping out, filled with air, with people.
Then I know that was rapturing. I was laughing, crying, screaming, so
excited, and then I saw my granddaughter, she
only ten months old, she didn’t have no hair, suddenly she fly out
the window from inside the room. Then with
white rob and her hair came down to her shoulder. You can imagine
how excited I was. Then next minute, I saw my
other granddaughter, she was only 4 months old, she didn’t have
no hair. She flew out the window, same as the
other one, with white robe. And her hair too came down to her
shoulder. I was screaming, crying, laughing,
exciting so much just I never excited that much before, just excited,
whole house could hear. Good thing my husband
wasn’t home. If he was home, he really thought something was
wrong with me. And after that, God showed me
different scene. This scene was very sad one. It was horrible.
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
The Bible also talks about a time of great
distress, soon after the rapture. In Matthew 24:21-22, Jesus said “For
then there will be great distress, unequaled
from the beginning of the world until now –and never to be equaled
again. If those days had not been cut short,
no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect, those days will be
shortened.” This is known as the great
tribulation.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
Well, after that, the Lord Jesus showed me
another vision. This was people left behind. I believe among them are a
lot of Christians. That’s why they were
running right? If they weren’t Christians, they weren’t running, you know.
But the police were everywhere, people were
everywhere and they, just running, scared, and panicked face, going
to the car, going to the boat, running to the
mountain, they just don’t know where to go, just like they were chased
by, you know., monster or something. So
scared, you know., horrible, horrible scene that was. And after that, Lord
Jesus He told me, that what you seen just now
is nothing compared to what will happen that day comes. And after
that, He told me, all my people are raptured,
Satan will take over this world and he wants everyone to receive his
number 666. And anyone who refuse to receive
it, they will be beheaded. So whoever don’t want to receive the
marks of the beast number 666, they give their
heart to Jesus, they want to be with Him forever and ever,
Revelation 20:4. And then, whoever receive
mark of the beast number 666, they all will thrown into the lakes of
fire forever, ever; they will be burning in
there day and night, no resting, Revelation 14:11. So everybody should
know about these things and remember, want to
be beheaded, it will not easy way. They will be tortured so much
before they will being beheaded, because satan
will not allow them to give in easily. So, whoever hear this
message, please if you are not have a close
relationship with our Lord Jesus, please do something about your salvation.
Also, if you are left behind, no-matter what it cost, don’t ever, ever take the
marks of the beast number
666. It’s better to be suffer for a while than
suffer in hell for ever and ever burning in fire and please, please take
seriously what I’m saying

The book, Heaven is so Real, is currently
being translated in many languages and being distributed all over the
world. There is also an MP3 version of this
book, which can be purchased online.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
Well, book is doing great. And this book is an
international bestseller. The Lord used Dr. Yonggi Cho for this book
and he translated this book. It took him about
two months to translate, usually takes about six, seven months. So,
the day the book was printed, and it exploded
in Korea and is number one bestseller there. And almighty God
using Dr. Youggi Cho such awesome way. He has
almost 800, 000 members in his church, so God is using him for
this book, he chose him for this book. Praise
you Lord, and the book is our Lord Jesus’ end-time book. He wants
all the Christians to read this book and
witness to others and this is what lots of people are doing, when they buy
one book, they buy dozens, they buy hundreds,
and they say this is best witnessing tool besides the Bible. And
then, I receive so may emails, I don’t have
anytime for my own anymore. And especially when I receive email
from little young children about 12, 13 years
old. They are saying they are so much in love with this book. They
love Jesus, they call this Jesus’ book and
they are transformed by book. Some of them saying, I should quite school
and do God’s work. I say don’t ever quite
school. You have to study, God wants you to have education. That’s
what I tell them you know. But whatever you
do, put God first I say. When I answer their emails, they are so
happy, You know, thousands and thousands of
lives are changing with this book because it is Jesus’ book. and he
fulfilled all His promises for this book from
beginning to end. He told me, well, He’ll take care of everything, from
beginning to end I told Him well, I was very
worried, many things, you know, then He told me, why you worry,
this is my book, I will take care of it;
always He tell me that. But He has been taking care of everything from
beginning to end. Whoever read this book, they
know this is Jesus’ book and He did take care of everything. So, all
His promise for this book, He fulfilled. Now,
only thing left is my dancing ministry. He trained my dancing
ministry; this is holy dance, for three years,
then, I dance at the church for two years. Now almost 3 and a half
years, I’m waiting on Him. Waiting is the
hardest for serving God. You know, I had to wait seven years before He
publish the book. Some time I thought if He
will ever publish this book, but He fulfilled His words, you see.
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
At the end of her Heavenly trips, Jesus makes
a very special promise to Choo.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
Well, the end of the visitation was after I
took care of the manuscript of the book. Then He brought me to the
earthly beach. And we spend about a couple of
hours. He told me He will bring me there every Monday. That was
May 27, 1996. Ever since, He never missed
once, He bring me there every Monday with my transformed body. He
wake me up about a few minutes after 12
o-clock every Monday Morning. He shakes my body for 30 minutes,
exactly 30 minutes; never less, never more,
and His presence shows and His spirit body, my spirit body and we go
to the beach. And the, when we go there, you
know, He talks mostly, I listen. Then I sing, I dance with my spirit
body and this is the best time of my life
right now
--------HOST SPEAKING:---------
The reason why Jesus died on the cross is
because of John 3:16 – For God so loved the world that he gave his one
and only Son that whoever believes in him will
not parish, but have eternal life.
Therefore, according to Romans 10:9 - If you
confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord”, and believe in your heart
that God raised Him from the dead, you will be
saved.
--------CHOO THOMAS SPEAKING:---------
Well, I hear so many people say “who cares
after you die”, hee hee hee, like that, you know. Then I say, you better
care after you die. This was when I was
witnessing. If you die, you only go two places, either heaven or hell. He
say, eeeehhh, who cares after I die. They talk
like they don’t know anything after they die. I say, you better care
after you die, because why ? Even you die,
your body die, your spirit, soul will never die. That’s why you can
remember, pain, happy, joy, everything, just
like when you were alive. So they still don’t believe it, aaaaa, they get
angry at me. I say, I hope someday you will
remember what I’m saying. Do you know Jesus ? They say, I know
God. I say, well, Jesus is God. He’s the
Father, He’s the Holy Spirit, He’s all. If you don’t know Jesus, you
knowing God, that’s not going to take you to
heaven. I just talk, talk, they don’t want to hear, most of these people.
I just tell them, well, you don’t want to
believe it now, I hope someday, you will believe. And I talk, talk, no matter
what, they don’t want to accept the salvation
package. You know what I say, I say, OK you don’t want to accept
this salvation package is fine, but one day,
you will know all of God’s people will be raptured, then you will know
what I’m saying right now, but I ask you, that
time comes, never to receive the number 666. If you receive that,
you going to burn in hell for ever, ever,
ever. So please, please, please, don’t ever receive the number 666. Will
you please remember ? You know, some of them
say OK. I say this to many many people.
Anyone who has never prayed the salvation
prayer before, I would like to pray. Please repeat after me. Lord Jesus,
I believe You are Son of God and You died for
me. Please come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. I ask
you forgive me all of my sins and cleanse me
with your precious blood, taking control every area of my life from
this moment on. Jesus, fill me with your Holy
Spirit and empower me to be used for Your glory. I want to serve
you, love you, obey you all the days of my
life and make a difference in the lives of others. Father, thank you for
making me your child. In Jesus’ Holy Name,
amen. Halleluiah. Anyone who pray this prayer with me , please , go
to church, listen to word of God from pastors
and read the Bible every day, study it. Pray many times a day and
have a relationship with Jesus. Thank you,
amen, Halleluiah
