This chapter analyses the background of the study by presenting my opinions and also materials from other resources. Additionally, the statement of the problem, objectives, significance, organization, of the study along with the research questions, scope and limitation of the study is being discussed in chapter one.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The problem of the study is: The rate of failure amongst university students is still high even with the availability of the internet. The major question raised is: Are they using the internet? If they are, for what purposes are they using it primarily? If not, why are they not using it?
There have been numerous complaints from students about the limited amount, or lack of text books and instructional materials in Liberia. Additionally, the complaints have been that those text books and other instructional materials in the country are outdated. Many of them have attributed their poor performances to these problems.
The advancement in technology has made things easier and better. The internet which has been in Liberia for over six years is a conglomeration of all the various types of media. In it is imbedded the latest text books and other educational materials that anyone can have access to. Ironically, teachers and others believe that the internet is a major contributor to the mass failure. Most accuse students of giving priority to on other things including the internet. According to the majority of the critics, students are spending too much time on the internet browsing sports and social sites instead of focusing on their lessons.

1.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

The internet is now a global phenomenon that provides almost everything a man needs in our world today. The internet provides a wide range of options including: news, entertainment, fun, making friends, researching, finding jobs or etc. that might interest a person.

With the above mentioned, we can now understand the importance of the internet to us. Now therefore, the research draws out the following objectives:

 Find out universities students prioritized use of the internet. That is, their preferences when using the internet.

 Understand the rate at which university students use the internet, and to determine the ratio between those using the internet to those not using the internet.

 Understand how often these students use the internet.

 Analyze and interpret responses from respondents and put forward suggestions and recommendations that can help in improving students and teachers research and also help augment student’s performance.

Finding answers to these questions will be very important to this research in that it will enable us to understand the purposes of universities students use for the internet and as an addendum, we will also understand weather the high failure rate is really because of lack of text books or students not taking advantage of the resources made available to them through the internet etc.

1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

This research has great significance to education to education in Liberia because, the internet has numerous educational materials and information embedded within it.
The institutions aligned with education in Liberia and students as well students need to identify how immensely the internet is capable of influencing the standards of education positively in Liberia. If the standard of Liberia’s education is to reach to that of countries like Nigeria, South Africa, England, United States of America, Canada etc.

We must recognize the role the internet has in helping enhance the educational standards in Liberia. This can only be achieved by using it appropriately i.e. for the right purpose. Training students to research information accurately, efficiently, and effectively will be a very important in boosting their performances.

Understanding how students use the internet is the first step toward achieving the above mentioned. By doing this, we can determine whether they really know how the internet can assist them in their pursuit of higher education.
In addition to this, we will know the percentage of those who use the internet to those who don’t how often they use it, why they use it, or why they don’t use it. These stats can assist institutions aligned with education to know whether or not it will be important to focus on the internet as an alternative for providing sources for educational material and train students to use it etc.

1.5 SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS & DELIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

This research which covers the period of 2008-2009 has the following limitations:
 Insufficiency of resources, funding etc.
 The unwillingness of some students to give the most appropriate answers
The above mentioned have greatly reduced my capacity to get all the necessary information needed for the research.
The delimitations of this research paper are:

i. The research conducted is focused primarily on the African Methodist Episcopal University

ii. The period under review is limited to 2008-2009

iii. The research is exclusively focused on university students

1.6 RESEARCH QUESTIONS/HYPOTHESIS

The internet which has been in existence for over thirty years (30yrs) and about ten years (10yrs) in Liberia has become a wonder of the world and the fastest and most efficient way of transferring and receiving information. In addition to that, the internet serves as a host of many social sites and multimedia that serves the purpose of entertainment.
In view of the aforementioned, the Hypothesis draws out the following conclusions:
 Most university students use the internet for other purposes rather than academic related purposes.
 The more universities students spend time doing other things on the internet rather than academic related the more the rate of failure in their lessons increase.
The above mentioned statement is true. Most universities students are more likely to be found doing other things on the internet rather than academic because they are lazy to study their lessons and make researches. This is the cause of high failure of students.
The major question to be answered is:
 Why do university students prefer searching and doing other things rather than that of academic purposes?

2.1 INTRODUCTION

This chapter gives an overview of other researches that have been done on this topic, the findings of those researches and how they can be related to my work. It examines these works that are closely related and are all aimed at realizing the same aims and objectives.

2.2 THEORETICAL LITERATURE
This chapter reviews other similar researches that were conducted on this topic. These researches are from different countries around the world.
The major objective is to understand other university students preferred use for the internet. Furthermore, the researcher intends to also understand the outcome of their use of the internet.
2.2.1 University student use of social sites in other countries In terms of hits, the most popular site by a long way is Facebook. It accounts for 20% of web requests. 85% of undergraduates are signed up to it, as well as a third of post graduates, and they seem to use it regularly. Students regard it as their “shared space”, using it to organize (and post sordid details of) their social lives. In terms of bandwidth, the three most popular sites are video streaming sites:
1. DailyMotion 2. Veoh 3. YouTube The former two stream in a better quality than YouTube. The next two most popular are file sharing facilities: 4. RapidShare 5. Uploading.com
Students regard email as a formal communication channel, for keeping in touch with “older people” such as tutors and parents. For communicating with each other, they use instant messaging. Very large proportions are signed up to MSN, and Skype is also used (Martin Poulter, March 30, 2007).
Students don’t have radios, but at least 95% have computers, so they listen to radio through the network. This is a major bandwidth hog: students leave streaming radio on all day and this can easily use up a 10Gig per week cap. Something similar is happening with TV thanks to Internet TV services and the Slingbox.
2.2.2 The use of the internet for academic purpose
Another research conducted John Lubans of Duke University in the fall of 1997 on internet use by 10th graders to freshman university students presented the following results:
Forty-two percent of the students completed a questionnaire that asked them to reflect about their use of the Internet for academic purposes, “as part of your school work at Duke and elsewhere”. The ratio of boys to girls in the study was nearly identical to the overall population on campus, (64% boys, and 36% girls).
The web is used for academic/learning purpose by a majority of the respondents from several times a week to often. However, boys tends to use the web significantly more often than girls, while freshman claim significantly more use of the web than do the high school students. A majority of the students rated their expertise in using the Web at good or above. The “best” rating was claimed solely by males. Most undergraduates find new sites by using a search engine or directories and by surfing. The students confirmed what elements (links, page ownership, email link, etc.,) make for a trustworthy site. Both boys and girls chose “links to other selected good sites (from the page)” and “authoritative ownership” as the top two indicators of a good site.
2.2.2.1 The internet impact on students performances
A follow up survey was conducted in March, 1999 to assay the level of impact the web has on student’s performances. Many students said they were helped greatly in completing required papers by the number of resources found via the Web. They generally believe that their grades for papers are better because of the web. And similarly, were helped significantly by the web in the quality of their written work.
While both groups have a pragmatic view about the utility of the Internet, the high school students have statistically significant higher ratings about the Internet’s accuracy, timeliness, and authoritativeness, for their purposes. Contrary to some Internet trend spotters, a majority of students only occasionally, rarely or never engage in collaborative work on the Internet with other students.
Do they learn while using the Web? Almost all respondents claim that they do indeed learn via the Web. No gender differences.
As for being frustrated while using the Web, most students rated this as an infrequent experience, but girls claimed more frustration than boys. This is a statistically significant gender difference. Freshmen were more apt to feel frustrated. A majority of students indicate they have fun while using the Web.
The high school students are relying more on the Internet than are the freshmen. The difference is statistically significant: 51% of first year students say “20% or less Web” while only 33% of the pre college students say this. Conversely, 14% of the freshmen say “80% Web” as compared to 24% of pre-college students. Nearly a third of the high school students claim a ratio of 50:50.
2.2.3 Features students want from the internet
Surveyed about what students want in future from the network, students say they want video podcasts, or failing that audio, of their lecturers. They don’t want less personal contact with teaching staff, but they want to be able to catch up with lectures on a video iPod on the train. They also want ubiquity: they expect high quality access, wirelessly, everywhere. Having been brought up with Google and Amazon, they have very high standards of ease of use (ancientgeeks.wordpress.com/…/what-do-students-use-the-internet-for/).

The development of a vital civil society in Liberia has been encouraged since before the civil war ended. This occurs through technical and financial support from a range of intergovernmental and nongovernmental agencies and organizations in Liberia, such as UNESCO. Peace building, conflict resolution, and tolerance education programs also have been developed and implemented by a number of the same organizations in these crucial post-war years. As Liberia further emerges from its years of political and social unrest and violent upheaval, additional programming in the areas of psychosocial trauma counseling and community reconciliation will need to be more broadly disseminated among the population, implemented by professionals whose goal is to further the peaceable, democratic development of their country with respect for all ethnic groups and individuals.

A broader range of support directed toward rebuilding Liberia’s internal structures, including its educational system, must become the top priority in the minds of many more individuals responsible for tending to the welfare of the Liberian people. The role of appropriate educational programs directed toward building a more peaceful, stable society dedicated to promoting human rights and guaranteeing that the basic human needs of the inhabitants of the country are met without fear of back-sliding into war is an essential role indeed. Liberia is fortunate to have had so many willing partners to share in the joint enterprise of educating her children and youth up to this point. The country may well prosper again in the very near future if sufficient attention and resources are directed toward finding the ways and means to develop an educational system for all—not one that neglects the needs of the impoverished by catering to the wealthy, but a system where all learners from all walks of life can come together to celebrate the rich diversity of this verdant country that once welcomed her forsaken children back to their original shore, regardless of what had transpired in between.

The Lord gave us much encouragement. Because of our trials, we were often ready to give up, but the Lord was there to help us. He gave us Jeremiah 33:3 “Call unto Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you know not.” My daughter had been emphatically requesting that from Lord, though I didn’t know it at the time.

Angelica (The daughter):
My name is Angelica Elizabeth Zambrano Mora. I am 18, and study at the “Colegio José María Velazco Ibarra”, here at El Cantón, El Empalme, Ecuador. I first accepted Christ when I was 12, but I told myself, “None of my friends were evangelicals and I felt strange amongst them”, so I walked away from God, and lived a bad, terrible life. But God pulled me out of there. On, my 15th Birthday, I was reconciled to the Lord, but I was still double-minded. The Bible says, “A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways” (James 1:8) and I was one of those persons. My dad would say, “You don’t have to be like that, it looks awful, it’s wrong,” but I would reply, “This is the way I am, and how I want to be, nobody has to tell me how I should be, nor what I should do, nor how I should dress, or behave.” He would respond, “God is going to deal with you. He is going to change you.”
During my 17 birthday, I came closer to the Lord. On April 28th I came to Him and said, “Lord, I feel so bad, I know that I’m a sinner,” and I told Him how I felt. “Lord, forgive me. I want You to write my name in the Book of Life and to accept me as Your child.” I repented and gave back my life to the Lord. I said, “Lord, I want You to change me, to make a difference in me.” I cried with all my heart, asking the Lord to change me. But, as time passed by I felt no change. The only difference was that I began to attend church, to read the Bible and to pray. That was the only change in my life.
Then, in August, I was invited to fast for 15 days. I decided to join, but before entering I said, “Lord, I want you to deal with me here.” During the fast, the Lord was speaking to almost everybody, except me! It was as if the Lord had not seen me, and that hurt. I would pray, “Lord, aren’t You going to deal with me?” I would cry alone and continue, “Lord, do You love me? Are You here? Are You with me? Why don’t You speak to me like You do to everyone else. You speak so many things to other people, even words of prophecy, but not me.” I asked for a sign that He was with me, and the Lord gave me Jeremiah 33:3, “Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” I said, “Lord, did You just talk to me?” Because I heard His audible voice and had a vision of the words written in Jeremiah 33:3.
I said, “Lord, is that for me?” I kept it to myself, while everyone else was testifying what the Lord had given them and what they had seen. But I kept it secret and would only meditate on the words: “Call unto Me” means to pray, but what did “great and mighty things” mean? I thought, “This can only mean heaven and hell.” So I said, “Lord, I only want You to show me heaven, but not hell, because I’ve heard that it is a horrible place.” But I then prayed with all my heart, “Lord if it is Your will to show me what You must, then do so, but change me first. I want You to make a difference in me; I want to be different.”
When we finished fasting, there were trials and difficulties and sometimes I felt faint, unable to continue walking with the Lord. But He gave me strength. I started to hear His voice and know Him better. We became good friends. The Lord is our best friend, the Holy Spirit. I told Him, “Lord, You are my best friend. I want to know You better,” and shared all my thoughts with Him.
I prayed during all of August and then in November, a servant of the Lord came to our house and said, “May the Lord bless you.” I replied, “Amen.” He then said, “I am here to bring you a message from God…you must prepare yourself, because the Lord will show you great and mighty things which you do not know. He is going to show you Heaven and Hell because you have been asking, from Jeremiah 33:3.” I asked, “Yes, how did you know? I haven’t told that to anyone.” He responded, “The same God that you serve and praise, that very same God I also praise told me everything.”
Soon we began to pray. Some sisters from our church, and others from my family were there with us praying. But as soon as we started praying, I began to see the Heavens opened. So I said, “I see the Heavens are opening, and 2 angels are coming down!” The man said, “Ask them why they are here.”
They were tall and beautiful; with beautiful wings. They were large and shining, and seemed transparent, brilliant as gold. They wore crystal sandals and had on holy garments. “Why are you here?” They smiled and said, “We are here because we have a task to carry out…We are here because you must visit Heaven and Hell and we will not leave until all of this comes to pass.” I responded, “very well, but I only want to visit heaven, not hell.” They smiled, and stayed there, but did not say anything more. After we finished prayer, I could still see them there.
I also started to see the Holy Spirit; He is my best friend; He is Holy, He is omniscient; He is omnipresent! I could see Him, transparent and brilliant at the same time; with a brilliant countenance, I could see His smile and His loving gaze! I can hardly describe Him, because He is more beautiful than angels. The angels have their own beauty, but the Holy Spirit is far more beautiful than they are! I could hear His audible voice, a voice full of love, a passionate voice. I just can’t explain His voice; a voice like lightening, yet at the same time He would say, “I am with you.” so I would strive to continue walking with God, even as trials surrounded us. We were going through very difficult moments, but victorious ones at the same time. I said, “Lord, let Your will be done.” I continued to notice the angels even at school, and in my classes. I was so happy, so full of joy because I could actually see them!
The servant of the Lord, who visited my house, told me to prepare myself, because I was going to see Heaven and Hell. But he also told me something difficult. He said, “You are going to die.” It wasn’t easy when I heard this.
“How am I going to die? I’m so young”, I asked. He replied, “Don’t worry about anything, everything God does is perfect, and He will bring you back to life, so you can testify about Heaven and Hell, which is what the Lord wants all of us to know about.” I said, “Amen, but will I be run over by a car, how will I die?” Ideas came rushing into my mind, but the Lord told me not to worry, everything was under control. I said, “Thank you, Lord!”
On November 6th, after I returned home from school, the Angels were still with me, even while praising the Lord. They would not speak to me; all they would say was, “Holy, Holy, Holy, Hallelujah,” giving glory, honor and praise to our Heavenly Father. The Holy Spirit was there along with the angels and I would rejoice. Many people say that the gospel is boring, but that is a big lie from the devil to keep people from searching for God’s presence. I also used to believe this, but after I met the Lord and the Holy Spirit, I know the gospel is not boring, it is the most beautiful experience you can have on Earth!
I could see; play with, and even talk to the Holy Spirit. But the angels would not talk to me, but they would praise the Lord. I would say, “Holy Spirit come along with me to do this or that” and He would be there. I could feel and see Him.
I saw Him when He would rise to His feet, and would even prepare a seat for Him. Although many can’t see Him, He is here! That relationship has continued, there’s no reason to stop it, once you’ve experienced it…there’s no way that I would withdraw. When I consider where He pulled me out from, what I was before, I am so thankful for His mercy, for all His love toward humanity and toward me!
On November 7th, when I was returning home, I heard a voice that said, “Be prepared, for you will die today,” I knew it was the Holy Spirit because I could see Him. I ignored His voice and said, “Lord, I don’t want to die today!” But He repeated, “Be prepared, for you will die today!” This time He said it louder and with greater force. I replied, “Lord, I know it’s You talking to me; I only ask for a confirmation and after that, do with me as You will. I’ll do whatever You ask, I’ll surrender, even if I’m afraid, because I know You are with me and You are real.”
I prayed, “Let that person you used before, bring me the message. Let him be at my home this instant, before I arrive, and let him tell me that today I will die.” Now, somehow the Lord knows our past, present and future. He knew what I would request of Him. So when I arrived home, the servant of the Lord was already there.
Maxima:
When my daughter got home, we were in the kitchen. When Angelica saw the servant of the Lord, she said, “May the Lord bless you.” The man of God responded, “God bless you. Are you ready? For today is the day that the Lord will take you, at 4 PM.” She just stood there, astonished that the Lord had granted her request.
Angelica:
When I heard this I said, “Amen…but I don’t want to die, I can’t die! No, Lord, I’m afraid, very much afraid, terrified!” The servant of the Lord said, “Let’s pray that your fear will leave now in the name of our Lord.” I said, “Amen” and we prayed. Soon I felt all fear leave me, and an indescribable joy came, thinking that death was the best thing that could happen to me! I started to smile and laugh while everyone was looking at me. They could all see that I went from being dismal to joyful. I was smiling, jumping and singing.
Maxima:
My daughter instantly felt joy in her heart and started eating. She had a little bit of everything, saying, “If I don’t return, well I’ve eaten and I’m full.”
Angelica:
Everyone started laughing and asked, “Why are you behaving like this instead of being sad, you’re happy, you’re joyful?” I told them, “Of course: I’m going to see the Lord, I’m going to be with Him, but I don’t know if I’ll be coming back so I want to give away all my things.” They all stared at me and asked, “You’re going to give away all your belongings?” My Mom’s eyes were wide open in surprise!
Maxima:
My daughter started giving her things away. She gave everything away, everything! Our church sisters were with us, as usual, and she gave something to every one of them. When I questioned her intentions, she said, “If I return, they can give everything back to me, but if I don’t come back, then they can keep everything.”
Angelica:
I can imagine how sad my Mom must have felt when I said that. But I felt so happy, that I started giving everything away: my clothes, my bed, my cell phone, everything, with one condition: If I come back, everything must be returned to me. They all started laughing.
Maxima:
She was very determined, but as a mother I felt so much sorrow. It wasn’t easy. I wondered, “Lord when the moment comes, how will it be?” I couldn’t understand. As they started praying, I was arranging thing in the house. They said, “sister, come let’s pray.” But I replied, “You go on, I will join you shortly. Just let me finish this task.”
Angelica:
They were all observing me as we prayed. I prayed, “Lord, I want to do Your will. You’re not a man that You would lie or repent, I know You are real. If I am going to fail You, then it’s best if You just take me with You; but If I am going to do Your will, then bring me back, but help me say the truth, prepare me, help me to preach and to tell people to repent.” That was my shortest prayer. I told this to the servant of the Lord and said, “Don’t tell my Mom what I said to the Lord.” He replied, “I won’t tell her now, but once the Lord has taken you, I’ll tell her.” We continued praying and came together in a prayer circle.
Maxima:
At 3:30 PM, the Lord told His servant to anoint my daughter. So some of us went into the room and anointed her. He gave us two minutes to anoint her all over, from her hair down, everything, all her body. She was fully anointed.

Death
Angelica:
My Mom and another church sister, Fátima Navarrete, anointed me with oil. But as they were anointing me, I felt something covering me, like a glass that was surrounding me. It’s hard to explain, I felt covered with something like armor, and I couldn’t explain how I was covered. After that, when they tried to touch me, they no longer could.
Maxima:
As we were praying over Angelica, I was trying to lay my hands on her, but I couldn’t touch her! She had some type of covering around her. It was strange, nobody could touch her! This covering started at the top of her head to her feet, about 30cm (12 inches). That was what shocked me the most. I’ve lay my hands on people before, in service to the Lord, but something like this had never happened before! I said, “Oh, something must be happening,” and I started to pray and to give thanks to the Lord. Suddenly, I felt great joy. The sorrow in my heart was gone, the pain was gone, and I now felt joyful and happy! We continued praying and about at 4:00 PM, my daughter fell to the floor.
Angelica:
During prayer, I felt shortness of breath; I couldn’t breathe. I felt a pain in my abdomen and in my heart. I felt my blood going dormant, and tremendous pain all over my body. All I could say was, “Lord, give me strength, give me strength!” because I felt I couldn’t go on. I had no strength, it was leaving me! When I looked up to heaven, in the spiritual realm, not with my physical eyes, I saw heaven opening up. I saw angels, not two nor ten, but millions of them gathering together. In the midst of the millions of angels, I saw a Light, 10,000 times brighter than the sun. And I said, “Lord that is You who is coming!”
Maxima:
When she fell down, we tried to stand her up, but she was unable to stand on her own. At this time, we were able to touch her. She was saying, “Pray. I don’t have strength, Mommy, I don’t have strength and I feel pain.” First, she felt pain in her heart, and then it went down near her abdomen. We kept on praying and pleading with the Lord. The Lord took her life!
Never before in my life had I seen anybody die. I had to see my daughter, as she was agonizing! It was not easy at all! I couldn’t understand her last few words, and at the end she stopped. I placed my hand on her face, and a mirror to her mouth, to see if she was breathing. She had no breath, she just stood still. I held her, she was still warm, as normal. I took a sheet and covered her up, and in a short while she started to get cold, very cold. Her hair was set back, like the hair of a dead person, and she turned icy cold.
Angelica:
Jesus was coming down, and I felt my body dying. As Jesus and the Angels got closer, I felt I was leaving, that I was no longer me. I was no longer alive, I was dying, and it was agonizing! When my body fell to the floor, they were already here. My house was full of angels, and in the midst of the angels I saw a Light, stronger than the sun! It was very difficult; I felt tremendous pain, as my soul and spirit were being torn away.
I was crying and screaming, as I saw my body on the floor. I asked, “Lord, what is happening? What is happening?” I wanted to touch my body and get inside it again, but when I tried, it was like to grabbing air: I couldn’t touch it. My hand went straight through it. None of those who were praying there could hear me! And I shouted, “Lord, help me!”
Maxima:
My husband arrived while we were praying, and he saw her there. The Lord gave me strength at that moment because I didn’t know what to do. It was like she was in a coma, but I knew she was OK, because it was the Lord’s work. So I said “Lord, let Your will be done.”

The Lord Jesus Christ
Angelica:
At that moment I hear the Lord’s voice, a beautiful voice with thunder and love, “Fear not, Daughter, for I am Jehovah, Your God, and I have come here to show you what I have promised you. Arise, for I am Jehovah, who holds you by your right hand and tells you, Fear not, I will help you.” Suddenly, I arose. I had been kneeling down, looking at my body, wanting to get back in but not being able to. When I heard His voice, fear had left me, and I was no longer scared.
As I started walking, the angels began to open a path. There was a strong light shining, and as I gazed at it, I felt peace. As I looked, I saw a beautiful, tall, elegant, muscular man. Light was projecting from Him. There was too much light for me to see His face! But I could see His beautiful hair of brilliant gold and a white garment with a wide golden girdle that crossed His chest. It read, “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.”
I looked at His feet, He was wearing shiny golden sandals, of brilliant gold. He was so beautiful! He extended His hand to me. When I took His hand, it wasn’t like when I touched my body, my hand did not go through it. I asked, “What is happening?” And He said, “I am going to show you hell, so that you return and tell humanity that hell is real; that hell exists. And also, My glory will I show you, for you to tell My people to be prepared, for My glory is real and I am real.” He said, “Daughter, do not fear”- He said it again and I said, “Lord, it’s just that I want to go to heaven, but not hell, because I’ve heard that it’s horrible!” He said, “Daughter, I will be with you. I will not leave you in that place and I am going to show you that place because there are many who know that hell exists, but they have no fear. They believe it’s a game, that hell is a joke, and many don’t know about it. That is why I am going to show you that place, because there are more that perish than those that are entering My glory.” When He said that, I could see tears streaming down to His garments. I asked Him, “Lord, why are you crying?” He replied, “Daughter, because there are more that perish, and I will show you this, so that you will go and tell the truth and so that you will not return to that place.”

Hell
Suddenly, as He was speaking, everything started to move. The Earth shook and split open, and I saw a very dark hole below.
We were standing on a sort of rock with angels surrounding us. I said, “Lord, I don’t want to go to that place!” He said, “Daughter, do not fear for I am with you.” In a split second we descended into the dark hole. I tried to see but there was a terrible darkness. I did see a huge circle, and hear millions of voices.
I was so hot, I felt my skin burning. I asked, “Lord, what is this? I don’t want to go to this place!” The Lord said that this was just the tunnel to hell. There was a horrible, repulsive and nauseating smell, and I begged Jesus not to take me. He responded, “Daughter, it is necessary for you to come and know this place.” I cried, “But why, Lord, why?” And He said, ‘so that you can tell the truth to humanity; humanity perishes, it’s lost and few are entering My Kingdom.” In saying this, He would weep. His words strengthened and encouraged me, so I continued walking.
We arrived at the end of a tunnel, when I looked down I saw an abyss covered in flames. The Lord said “Daughter, I give this to you.” It was a large binder with blank sheets of paper. “Daughter, take this pencil so that you can write all that I will show you, what you will see and hear. You will write everything as you are observing it, as you will live it.” I said, “Lord, I will do it, but I am already seeing so much, Lord. I am seeing souls being tormented, and immense flames.”
Maxima:
Time was going by, and my daughter was still lying there. “Lord, what is happening?” Tears were coming out of her eyes, but when I wiped them away, they would just come again. I placed a mirror to her mouth to see if she was breathing, there was nothing. We checked her pulse, nothing. We placed a hand on her stomach, nothing. The servant of the Lord said, “The place where she is, is not a place of smiles but a place of torment.”
Angelica:
I told Jesus, “I will testify that hell is real, that hell exists, but take me out of here now!” And He replied, “Daughter, we haven’t even entered that place, and I have shown you nothing yet, and already you want Me to take you out of this place?” “Lord, please take me out of here,” I said. Then we started to descend into the abyss! I started to cry and scream, “Lord, no, no, no, no- I don’t want to go!” and He would reply, “You need to see this.”
I saw horrible demons, of all types, both large and small. They were running so fast, and carrying something in their hands. “Lord, why are they running like that and what are they carrying?” He answered, “Daughter, they run that way because they know their time is running out, because time is so short to destroy humanity and especially My people. That which they carry in their hands are darts to destroy humanity, because each demon is given a name and according to the name that is given to them, they have a dart to destroy that person and bring them to this place; their goal is to destroy that person and bring them to hell.” And I would see the demons running and exiting toward Earth and He told me. “They are going to Earth to bring and throw humanity into this place.” As He said this He would weep, He would weep so very much. He was weeping all the time and I would cry too.
Maxima:
My Daughter was dead for 23 hours, but I did not notify the authorities. I prayed, “Lord, I will wait for 24 hours. If my daughter is not back in 24 hours, I will call a doctor.” But, the Lord brought her back before 24 hours were up.
Angelica:
The Lord said to me, “Are you ready to see what I am going to show you?” “Yes, Lord,” I said. He took me to a cell where I could see a young man being tormented among the flames. I noticed that the cell was enumerated, though I couldn’t understand the numbers, they seemed to be backward. There was a huge plaque in that cell, and the young man had the number “666″ on his forehead. He also had a big metallic plate that was encrusted into his skin. The worms that were eating him, were unable to damage that plate; neither did the flames burn it. He screamed, “Lord, have mercy on me. Take me out of this place. Forgive me, Lord!” But Jesus would respond, “It’s late, too late: I gave you opportunities and you would not repent.”
I asked Jesus, “Lord, why is he here?” Then I recognized him. On Earth, this young man knew the Word of God, but abruptly he walked away from the Lord, preferring alcohol, drugs and walking on the wrong path. He did not want to follow the way of the Lord. Jesus warned him many times on what could happen to him. Jesus said, “Daughter, he is in this place because anyone who rejects My word already has a judge: The Word that I have spoken will judge him in that last day,” (John 12:48) and then Jesus wept.
When the Lord weeps, it’s different than we do. He would weep with this pain in His heart and He would sob profoundly. “I did not create hell for humanity,” Jesus said. So I asked Him, “Then why is humanity here, Lord?” He answered, “Daughter, I created hell for satan and his angels, who are the demons; (Matt. 25:41) but, because of sin and the lack of repentance, humanity ends here, and there are more that perish than those who reach My glory!” (Matt 7:14) He continued weeping and it would hurt me so much to see how He cried. “Daughter, I gave My life for humanity, so that it would not perish, so that it would not end up in this place. I gave My life out of love and mercy, so that humanity would proceed to repentance and could enter the Kingdom of Heaven.” Jesus would moan as someone who could no longer withstand the pain, that’s how much pain He felt watching the people here.
Being with Jesus, made me feel safe. I thought, “If I let go of the Lord, I’ll be stuck here!” I asked, “Jesus, do I have relatives in this place.” He looked at me as I was crying and He said, “Daughter, I am with you,” because I was so scared. He took me to another cell. I never could have imagined seeing a relative of mine in that cell. I saw this woman being tormented, she had worms that would eat her face off, and demons would plunge a type of spear into her body. She would scream, “No, Lord, have mercy on me, forgive me, please, take me out of this place for one minute!” (Luke 16:24)
In Hell, people are tormented with the memories of what they did on Earth. Demons would mock people and tell them, “Worship and praise because this is your kingdom!” and the people would scream remembering that they knew God, because they knew the Word. Those who had known the Lord were tormented twofold.
The Lord said, “There is no other opportunity [for those here]; there is still opportunity for those who are alive.” I asked Him, “Lord, why is my great-grandmother here? I don’t know if she ever knew you. Why is she here in hell, Lord?” He replied, “Daughter, she is here because she failed to forgive…Daughter, he who does not forgive, neither will I forgive him.”
I asked, “Lord, but You do forgive, and You are merciful.” And He answered, “Yes, Daughter, but it is necessary to forgive, because they have not forgiven many people, and that is why many people are in this place, because they failed to forgive…Go and tell humanity that it is time to forgive, and especially My people, for many of My people have not forgiven. Tell them to rid themselves of grudges, of resentment, of that hatred in their hearts, for it is time to forgive! If death were to surprise that person who has failed to forgive, that person may go to hell, for no one can purchase life.” When we left that place, my great grandmother was engulfed in fire and she screamed, “Aaaah,” and began to blaspheme the name of God, she would curse Him; every person in hell blasphemes against God.
As we left that area, I could see that hell was full of tormented souls. Many people would extend their hands out, begging Jesus to help them and take them out of there. But the Lord could not do anything for them and they would start blaspheming God. Then Jesus would weep and say, “It hurts Me to hear them, it hurts Me to see what they do, because I can no longer do anything for them. What I will tell you is that I still have opportunity for he who is still on Earth, who has not yet died, who is still alive; he still has time to repent!”
The Lord told me there were many famous people in Hell, and also many people who had known about the Lord. He said, “I am going to show you another part of the furnace.” We came to a place where a woman was surrounded by flames. She was in great torment and would scream, begging the Lord for mercy. Jesus pointed to her with his hand and told me, “Daughter, that woman that you see over there, surrounded by flames, is Selena.” As we started getting closer, she screamed, “Lord, have mercy on me, forgive me Lord, take me out of this place!” But the Lord looked at her and said, “It’s late, it’s too late. You cannot repent now.”
She saw me and said, “Please, I beg you, go tell people about this, please speak out and do not be silent; go and tell them not to come to this place; go and tell them not to listen to my songs, nor sing my songs.” (1 John 2:15) So I asked her, “Why do you want me to go and say that?” And she answered, “Because every time people sing and listen to my songs, I am tormented even more, the person who does this, who sings and listens to my songs, is walking to this place. Please, go tell them not to come here; go tell them that hell is real!” She would scream and demons would hurl spears from afar into her body and she would cry, “Help me, Lord, have mercy on me, Lord!” But sadly, the Lord told her, “It is too late.”
I looked all over that area, it was full of singers and artists who have died. All they did was sing and sing, they wouldn’t stop singing. The Lord explained, “Daughter, the person who is here, must continue doing here, whatever they did on Earth, if they had not repented.”
As I was observing the area, I noticed a lot of demons that were spilling down some type of rain. I actually thought it was raining. But I noticed the people in flames running away from the rain and shouting, “No, help me, Lord!…No, this can’t be,” and the demons would laugh and tell the people, “Praise and worship because this is your kingdom forever and ever!” I saw the flames increase and people’s worms would multiply! There was no water there, it was brimstone that would multiply the flames and increase each person’s anguish. I asked Jesus, “What’s happening?…Lord, what is this?” The Lord replied, “This is the wages of anyone who has not repented.” (Psalms 11:6)
Then the Lord took me to place where there was a very well-known man. Before now, I used to live as a double minded young Christian girl. I used to think that any person that died would go to Heaven; that those who celebrated mass, would also go to heaven, but I was wrong. When Pope John Paul II died, my friends and relatives would tell me that he had gone to heaven. All the news on TV, on Extra and many other places would say, “Pope John Paul II has died, may he rest in peace. He is now rejoicing with the Lord and his angels in heaven” and I believed all of it. But I was only fooling myself, because I saw him in Hell, being tormented by flames. I looked at his face, it was John Paul II! The Lord said to me, “Look, Daughter, that man that you see there, is Pope John Paul II. He is here in this place; he is being tormented because he did not repent.”
But I asked, “Lord, why is he here? He used to preach at church.” Jesus replied, “Daughter, no fornicator, no idolater, no one who is greedy and no liar will inherit My Kingdom.”(Eph. 5:5) I replied, “Yes, I know that is true, but I want to know why he is here, because he used to preach to multitudes of people!” And Jesus responded, “Yes, Daughter, he may have said many things, but he would never speak the truth as it is. He never said the truth and they know the truth and although he knew the truth, he preferred money over preaching about salvation. He would not offer reality; would not say that hell is real and that heaven also exists; Daughter, now he is here in this place.”
When I looked at this man, he had a large serpent with needles, wrapped around his throat, and he would try to take it off. I pleaded with Jesus, “Lord, help him!” The man would scream, “Help me, Lord; have mercy on me; take me out of this place; forgive me! I repent, Lord; I want to return to Earth, I want to go back to Earth to repent.” The Lord observed him and said to him, “You very well knew. You knew very well that this place was real…It’s too late; there is no other opportunity for you.”
The Lord said, “Look, Daughter, I am going to show you the life of this man.” Jesus showed me a huge screen on which I could observe how this man offered mass many times to the multitudes. And how the people who were there were so idolatrous. Jesus said, “Look, Daughter, there are many idolaters in this place. Idolatry will not save, Daughter. I am the only One who saves, and outside of Me, no one saves. I love the sinner, but I hate sin, Daughter. Go and tell humanity that I love them and that they need to come to Me.”
As the Lord was speaking, I began to see how this man received multitudes of coins and bills; money, all of which he would keep. He had so much money. I saw images of this man seated on a throne, but I was also able to see beyond that. While it’s true that these people do not get married, I can assure you, I’m not making this up, the Lord showed it to me, those people do sleep with nuns; with many women there! [1 example]
The Lord showed me these people living in fornication, and the Word says that no fornicator will inherit His Kingdom. As I was watching all of this, the Lord told me, “Look Daughter, all of this which I am showing you is what goes on, what he lived and what keeps on happening among many people, among many priests and popes existing.” Then he told me, “Daughter, go and tell humanity that it’s time to turn to Me.”
The Lord showed me a place where many people were walking to hell. I asked Him, “Lord, how is it that they walk to this place?” He replied, “I will show you.” He showed me a tunnel with many people walking through it. These people were chained from hand to foot. They were dressed in black and carrying a load on their back. Jesus said, “Look Daughter, those people that you see there, those people don’t know Me yet. That which they carry on their backs is sin, but go and tell them to turn their burden over to Me, and I will give them rest; that I am He who forgives all their sins…Daughter, go and tell those people to come to Me, for I await them with open arms, and go tell them that they are walking to this place.”
As I was watching the people walking, I said, “Lord, that person over there is my cousin; that young man is my cousin, Lord, and that young girl coming down is also my cousin; my family is coming to this place!” He replied, “Daughter, they are walking to this place, but go and them where they are walking, go and tell them they are walking to hell. Go and tell them that I have chosen you as my watchman…I have chosen you as my watchman, for it means that you are to tell the truth. You must go and tell all that I have shown you. If you do not speak out and something happens to that person, his blood will be poured over you, but if you go and do as I have told you, then that person has an account with me. If the person does not repent, then the responsibility resting upon you will be lifted, for the account will rest upon that person and his blood will not be poured over you. (Ezekiel 3:18)”
Jesus told me that many famous people were walking to that place, famous and important people. Take for example, Michael Jackson. This man was famous all over the world but he was a satanist. Although many people may not see it that way, but it is the truth. This man had satanic covenants: He came to agreement with the devil in order to achieve fame and attract many fans.
Those steps that he performed, that’s the way I saw demons walk while tormenting people in hell. They would slide backward and not move forward, while they shout; enjoying the anguish they impose upon the people. Let me tell you that Michael Jackson is in hell. The Lord showed him to me after Michael died. He let me see Michael Jackson tormented in flames. I cried to Jesus, “Why?” It wasn’t easy to see how this man was being tormented and how he would scream. Anyone who listens to Michael Jackson’s songs or sings them or who is a fan of Michael Jackson, I warn you that satan is trapping you in his web so that you will end up in hell. Right now, renounce it in the name of Jesus! Jesus wants to set you free, so that you will not be lost.
The Lord said, “Daughter, there are also people who know Me, that are walking to this place.” I asked, “Lord, how can people who know You also come here?” He replied, “That person who has left My ways and that person who is living a double life.” He started showing me people who were walking to Hell. They were tied from their hands to their feet.
They each wore a white garment, but it was torn, stained and wrinkled. Jesus said, “Daughter, see how My people have walked away from Me. Daughter, I want to tell you that I am not coming for these people. I am coming for a holy people, ready, without blemish, without wrinkle and without defilement…Go and tell them to return to the old paths.” (Eph. 5:26-27) I started to see many of my uncles and many other people who had walked away from the Lord’s ways. “Go and tell them that I am waiting for them, to surrender their loads to Me, and I will give them rest.” Jesus was weeping, “Daughter, they are coming this way. Go and tell your uncles; go and tell your relatives that they are coming this way! Daughter, many will not believe you, but I am your faithful witness, I am your faithful witness. I will never leave you. Even if they do not believe you, Daughter, go and tell them the truth, for I am with you. I will also show you, Daughter, how people arrive at this place.”
We went to a tunnel where there were a multitude of people falling into the abyss. Not 1 thousand, not 2 thousand, but as many as the sand of the sea, countless. They were falling by the second, like handfuls of sand being thrown down. The souls were falling rapidly. Jesus was weeping, He said, “Daughter, this is how humanity perishes; this is how it is lost!…Daughter, it hurts Me to see how humanity perishes.”
Jesus said, “Demons also hold meetings in this place.” And I said, “Demons hold meetings?” Jesus said, “Yes, Daughter, they meet to plan, to plan what they will do to humanity. They hold daily secret meetings.” And with that, Jesus took me to a cell, where I saw a wooden table with chairs around it. And there were demons – all types of demons. Jesus explained, “Daughter, they are now planning to go and destroy the pastors’ families, the missionaries, the evangelists and all of those who know me. Daughter, they want to destroy them; they have many darts.”
The demons would laugh and mock and say, “Let’s destroy humanity and bring it to this place.” Jesus said, “Go and tell them that I am with them. Tell them to not leave open doors, to leave no place to satan, for satan walks about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.(1st Peter 5:8)” But the Word says, “he walks as”, because the only real Lion, is the Lion of Judah, Jesus Christ of Nazareth (Revelations 5:5)! Jesus said, “Daughter, they especially want to destroy the pastors; family.” I asked, “Why do they want to destroy the pastors’ family?” And Jesus responded, “Because they are in charge of thousands of people that are the sheep of the fold; the sheep of the fold that the Lord has given them. They want these people to return to the world again; to look back and end up in hell…Go and tell the pastors to speak the truth. Go and tell them to preach the truth and to speak everything that I tell them and to never keep to themselves what I tell them!”
As we left that place and He told me, “I want to show you something else…There are also children in this place.” And I replied, “Children in this place, Lord? Why are there children here? Your Word says, ‘let the children to come unto Me, and do not stop them: for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” (Matthew 19:14) Jesus replied, “Daughter, it’s true, of such is the kingdom of Heaven, but that child must come to Me, for he who comes to Me I will not throw out.”(John 6:37) Instantly, the Lord showed me an eight year old boy being tormented in fire. The boy cried, “Lord have mercy of me, take me out of this place, I don’t want to be here!” He kept crying and screaming. I saw demons around this boy, that resembled cartoon figures. There was Dragon, BoyZ, Ben 10, Pokémon, Doral, etc. “Lord, why is this boy here?” Jesus showed me a large screen of this boy’s life. I saw how he would spend all of his time in front of the TV, watching these cartoons.

Jesus said, “Daughter, these animated cartoons, those movies, those soap operas that are seen daily on TV are satan’s instruments to destroy humanity…Look, Daughter how this came to be.” I saw how the boy was rebellious and disobedient toward his parents. When his parents talked to him, he would run away, throwing things and disobeying them. After this happened, a car ran over him and ended his life. Jesus told me, “Ever since then, he has been in this place.”
I looked at the boy as he was being tormented. Jesus said, “Daughter, go and tell parents to instruct their child as is written in My Word. (Proverbs 22:6)” The Word of God is real, it tells us to correct a child with the rod, but not every moment, only when the child has been disobedient to his parents. (Proverbs 22:15)

The Lord told me something that is very sad and very painful. He said, “Daughter, there are many children in this place because of animated cartoons, because of rebellion.” I asked Him, “Lord, why are animated cartoons to blame for this?” And He explained, “Because they are demons that carry rebellion, disobedience, bitterness and hatred to children; and other demons enter these children, so that they do not do good things, but do that which is bad: whatever children see on TV, they want to do in reality.” Hell exists, hell is real, and even children must decide with whom they will go. I said, “Lord, tell me, why are there children in this place?” And Jesus answered, “Once children have knowledge that there is a heaven and a hell, then they have a place to choose.”

The Kingdom of Heaven
There’s much more to be said about hell, but now I’ll share what I saw in Heaven. Jesus said, “Daughter, now I am going to show you what I have prepared for My Holy people.” We left that place, going out through a tunnel. While traveling through this tunnel, we suddenly came out to where there was light. I saw no more darkness, torment or flames. He said, “Daughter, I am going to show you My glory,” and we started ascending to the Kingdom of Heaven! Soon we arrived at a door with giant letters written in gold, it said: “Welcome to the Kingdom of Heaven.” Jesus said, “Daughter, go in, for I am the Door and he who enters through Me, will enter, will go and will find pastures.”(John 10:9)
After the Lord said these words, the door opened and we entered. I saw angels giving glory, honor and praise to our Heavenly Father! (Revelations 7:11-12) As we continued walking, we approached a table of which I could see the beginning, but not the end. (Revelations 19:9) I observed a large throne, and a smaller throne surrounded by thousands of chairs. Between the chairs were garments along with crowns. The Lord told me, “Daughter, the crown that you see there is the crown of life.”(Revelations 2:10)
Jesus said, “Look, Daughter, this is what I have prepared for My people.” I saw that the table was covered with a white tablecloth with gold edging. There were plates, gold goblets, fruit; everything was served. It was so beautiful. There was a very large vessel in the middle of the table, which contained the wine for the dinner. And Jesus said, “Daughter, everything is ready for the arrival of My church.”
We went to another place, where I saw many people in a garden. There were well known people from the Bible, but they were not aged, but young. There was this young man with a large kerchief in his hand who danced and whirled around and praised the Lord. Jesus said, “Daughter that young man that you see there is My servant, David.” He was giving glory to our Father. Suddenly, another young man passes by and Jesus told me, “Daughter, he is Joshua; he is Moses; this other young man is Abraham.” Jesus would call them out by their names. They all had the same countenance! Jesus said, “Daughter, that woman that you see there is My servant, Mary Magdalene; My servant, Sara.”
But then He told me, “Daughter, she is Mary. Mary, who gave birth to Jesus Christ, Who I am. Daughter, I want to tell you that she has no knowledge of the things happening on Earth. I want to tell you that you must go and tell humanity, tell idol worshippers that hell is real, and that idolaters will not inherit My kingdom, but go and tell them that if they repent, they can enter My heavenly dwelling place. Go tell them that I love them and tell them that Mary has no knowledge of anything [happening on Earth] and the only One that they must exalt is Me, because neither Mary, nor St. Gregory nor any other saint can offer salvation. I am the only One who saves and outside of Me – nobody, nobody, nobody- saves!” He repeated it three times – that nobody could save; only He saves.
Humanity has been deceived believing in an assumed saint, which is not, but is a demon, working through an idol made by the hand of man. But, let me tell you that the Lord wants to give you the best. He wants you to enter the Kingdom of Heaven; to repent and to leave idolatry. Because idolatry will not save you. Jesus Christ of Nazareth is the one that saves, who gave His life for you, for me and for all humanity. The Lord has a great message for humanity. As He wept, He told me, “Please, Daughter, do not be silent; go and tell the truth, go and tell what I have shown you.”
I saw how Mary worshipped the Lord, and I saw women with very beautiful long hair. I said, “Lord, how pretty the way they wear their hair.” He told me, “Daughter, that which you see is the veil that I have given to a woman.” He added, “Daughter, go and tell women to take care of the veil that I have given them.”
Then He told me, “I have something to show you that is very important.” I looked far away and saw a shining city, a city of gold! I said, “Lord, what is that? I want to go over there.” He answered, “Daughter, I will show you what is over there. What you are seeing is the heavenly dwelling, the heavenly mansions which are ready for My people.”
We started walking, until we reached a golden bridge. As we walked over it, we came upon streets that were made of pure gold! (Revelations 21:21)
Everything was so beautiful, so brilliant, like shining glass, it was absolutely supernatural, inexplicable! We saw heavenly mansions, and watched thousands of angels constructing them. Some of the angels constructed very rapidly, others constructed slowly and others were not constructing at all. I asked the Lord, “Why are some angels constructing rapidly, while others are slower, and some have those stopped constructing?” The Lord explained, “Daughter, that is how My people work on Earth, and the angels work as My children work on Earth….Daughter, My people no longer spread the gospel. My people no longer fast. My people no longer go to the streets to distribute tracts telling the truth. My people are now ashamed. Go and tell My people to return to the old paths. Those angels that you saw that were doing nothing belong to those people that have walked away from My paths…Daughter, go and tell My people to return to the old paths,” (Jeremiah 6:16) and in saying this He started to weep.
I heard other people singing, so I asked Him, “Lord, I want You to take me over there, where those people are singing.” Jesus was observing me, I could tell how He was observing me, but I couldn’t see His face, only the movements of His face. While His tears were pouring over His garment, I asked Him why He was weeping. But He would not explain it to me.
Later we arrived at this beautiful garden. There, among the heavenly mansions, I saw flowers that were swaying. That must have been the singing I heard. The Lord pointed with His finger and said, “Daughter, look, they praise Me; they worship Me! My people no longer do as they did before. My people no longer praise, no longer worship Me; no longer seek Me as before. That is why I told you, Daughter, to go and tell My people to seek Me, for I will go, I will go, I will go – for a people that seeks Me in spirit and in truth, for a people that are ready, for a holy people!” And weeping He said, “I am coming, I am coming!” Then I understand why He was weeping, because He is coming, but not for those that are half-hearted. He will return only for a people that is seeking Him in spirit and in truth.
Then the Lord told me that I had to return to Earth. I said, “Lord, I don’t want to go back to Earth! What do you mean – Earth? I want to stay with You. You brought me here and I’m not going anywhere because I am with You!” Jesus said, “Daughter, it is necessary that you return to Earth to go and testify that My glory is real, that what I am going to show you is real; that what you have seen is real – so that humanity will come to Me, repent and not perish.” Weeping, I fell to His feet; there I saw wounds on His feet. I asked, “Lord, what are these wounds here?” He answered, “Daughter, it’s the scar from that yester day, when I gave My life for humanity.”
He also showed me the scars in his hands, I asked, “Lord, why do you still have that?” He told me, “Daughter, it is the scar that has remained.” So I asked, “Will this go away?” He replied, “Daughter, this will go away when all the saints are reunited here…Daughter, I must take you to Earth: Your family and the nations are waiting for you.”
I tried to refuse but He pointed down to Earth with His finger and said, “Look, those people that you see down there are your relatives; that body that you see there, is where you have to return…It is time to leave this place.” Then He took me along a beautiful crystal clear river and said “Daughter, enter the river and submerge yourself.” Before I entered that crystalline river of living water, I was experiencing indescribable joy, but after I submerged myself and came out, I was elated. I thought I would not have to return home, but the Lord told me, “Daughter, you have to return to Earth…Daughter, I am going to show you something: How I am coming to Earth for a holy people. I am going to show you how the day of the Rapture will be.”

The Rapture and Tribulation
We walked to a place with a giant screen, and I saw people in it. I could observe the whole world. Then suddenly I saw thousands of people disappearing. Pregnant women had their pregnancy disappear, and they looked like they had gone crazy screaming.
Children had disappeared from all over. Many people were running from here to there, screaming, “This can’t be, this can’t be! What’s happening?”
I saw those who had known the Lord, but were left behind. (Matt 24:40-41) They were saying that Christ had come, the Rapture happened. They screamed and wanted to kill themselves, but they couldn’t. The Lord told me, “Daughter, in those days, death will flee; Daughter, in those days the Holy Spirit will no longer be on Earth.” (Revelations 9:6) There were accidents but I didn’t see a single dead person: all of them were alive, although injured.
I observed enormous traffic with thousands of people. He told me, “Daughter, look, this is how everything will happen.” I then saw people running from one place to another, shouting, “Christ came, Christ came!” They would plead, “Lord, forgive me, forgive me, take me with You!”
But sadly the Lord said, “It will be too late. The time to repent is now…Daughter, go tell humanity to seek Me, for during that time there will no longer be opportunity. (Isaiah 55:6) Daughter, it will be too late for all those that stay behind.” When Jesus observed how people were left behind, He began to weep and said, “Daughter, I will go to Earth as it says in 1 Thes. 4: 16-17 : “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first; Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”
But not everyone will go with the Lord, only those who are doing His will (Matthew 7:21) and living a holy life. For the Lord told me, “Only those that are holy will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, (Hebrews 12:14), No one knows, neither the day nor the hour in which I will go for My holy people, not even the angels know it.” (Matthew 24:36)
On the screen I saw people running around. Magazines and TV news said that “CHRIST HAD COME.” The screen closed, and Jesus finished by saying, “I will go for a holy people.” This was all He showed me. After that, He brought me back here to Earth.
With angels gathered round, we began to descend these beautiful stairs; white steps with flowers surrounding them. I was crying all the way down, pleading with Jesus, “Lord, please, don’t leave me here. Take me with You!” He responded, “Daughter, the nations, your family are waiting for you…Daughter, you must enter that body. You must receive life, Daughter, so you can go and testify what you have seen. Many will not believe you; many will believe you, but I am your faithful witness. I am with you. I will never leave you.”

Return to Earth
Maxima:
When my daughter came back, we were waiting there, and she was stretched out on the floor. She went, “uuhmm,” nothing else. I said, “Thank You, Lord, because my daughter is back!”
We all gave thanks to the Lord. Soon she started breathing slowly, little by little. After about five hours, she was able to open her eyes and talk. At first we could hardly understand what she was saying; it just wasn’t clear. She had no strength. We needed to keep the windows covered, because her eyes couldn’t handle the light.
Being curious, we all wanted her to tell us what she saw. But because she was so weak, she could only tell us a little. It was 2 weeks until she was able to share her full testimony.
Demons came to torment her after all this. She could see them clearly, they would try to hide themselves in the shadows. They were here within three days of her return, before she could really talk. She asked them what they wanted and they replied, “We have come to make a pact with you…You must shut up. You must not say anything of what you saw down there, because if you speak, we will kill you.”
She described the demons as ugly, large and fat, ugly. She said there were no words to describe how horrible they looked. She would rebuke them, but they would not leave. When they came they would jump on her and try to choke her. She would fight back rebuking them, but she had no strength. One time when she rebuked them, a tremendous light appeared and then they fled! It was the Lord.
What my daughter went through was not easy. She was given a profound message to all humanity, to seek God. But humanity thinks that what it is doing is alright. Youth that are into drugs and alcohol, they think that’s OK, but it’s not. One of the greatest experiences that my daughter had was when she saw many entertainers in hell, including dancers, and also Pope John Paul II. It’s time to seek the Lord, to repent and to humble oneself before Him. The Word of God is true when it says, “Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away.”(Mark 13:31) The Word of the Lord will be fulfilled in its due time.
The Lord also showed her a tunnel, where people were walking to hell. Many people are already in hell. It’s real! But even the Lord’s people don’t believe this, many just don’t believe.
The main message was that we should seek the Lord, not just from our lips, but from the deepest part of our heart, for the Lord’s coming is at hand. Jesus said, “I am no longer at the door; I am beyond the door. I will come soon; My coming is near. My people have left Me and gone back to worldly things…Tell My people to return to the old paths.” The church today must go back to the old paths, that it is where we are in the fire, seeking the Lord. When the trumpet sounds we must be ready to meet the Lord, and it will be wonderful!

The Lord’s Urgent Message
Angelica, speaking before an audience:
The Lord told me, “Daughter, in those days the Holy Spirit will no longer be on Earth. In those days, He will no longer be on Earth.”(2 Thes. 2:7) And I saw enormous traffic, with accidents. Many people wanted to kill themselves, but Jesus said, “They shall seek death, but death shall flee from humanity. Death will no longer be during that time.”(Revelations 9:6) I saw people watching TV and magazines that read, “Thousands and Thousands have Disappeared.” Many already knew that Christ had come for His holy people. Those who knew the Lord, but were left behind, went crying through the streets, wanting to kill themselves, but they could not do anything.
While in Heaven, Jesus said, “I will come for a holy people and I will come soon for My church.” But two weeks ago the Lord told me, “Daughter, I take pleasure in what you are doing, that you are fulfilling what I have given you, but do not tell My people that I am coming soon. Tell My people that I am coming right away.” Again the Lord said, “Tell My people that I am coming right away and that I am coming for a holy people. Tell My people that only the holy ones, only the holy ones will see Me!…And do not be silent: Keep on declaring what I have told you.”

Angelica Praying with the audience:
Everybody, close your eyes, and place your right hand over your heart. Raise your left hand and if you feel like crying, then cry. Now tell the Lord what you feel in your heart. For those who want to accept the Lord, repeat after me.
Lord, I thank You for Your love and Your mercy, thank You, Lord, for the word that has reached my heart today. Father, I ask for Your forgiveness. Forgive me. Wash me with Your precious blood. Write my name in the Book of Life. Accept me as Your child, Lord. Right now, I forgive anyone that I had not been able to forgive. I renounce to my lack of forgiveness. I renounce all things that have hindered Your flow, and I ask You to transform me and to fill me with Your presence every day. Thank You, Father, Son and Holy Spirit; in the Name of Jesus, Amen.
Angelica:
“This testimony is not a lie; it’s not a joke; it is not a story; it is not a dream, hell is real! Hell exists! To anyone that does not believe, I want to tell you that hell is real, very real. I cannot find words to tell you how real it is. I wish that you could experience it yourself.”

Angelica, speaking with Narrator:
The time is soon, God allows signs to reveal to humanity what is about to happen. Do not remain condemned; that’s what the devil wants. Ask yourself if you are already walking through hell’s tunnel? Today is the day of salvation, today is the day to invite Jesus, your Savior into your life. These are simple and yet great words to say: “I accept You, Jesus as my Lord and my only Savior. I give You my life and soul with all my heart. I want to be with You for eternity.”
Choose your final destiny: Life or death, heaven or hell, Jesus or the devil. It’s clear, either you belong to Jesus or to the devil. Either you do what is right or you do what is wrong. You choose your destiny: eternal life or the lake of fire. Think about it. Decide now. Jesus Christ died on the cross for each one of us, for our sins, and He gave us the opportunity of salvation by His mercy. Accept Christ as your only Savior!
Now that you’ve heard this testimony, don’t let this moment be the one you regret forever in hell.”

Oh my God, my cell phone is empty I must recharge it now in case of emergencies.

NO the food in the house is almost depleted, I must purchase some more. No… No… No…                             

Can’t leave my cell phone without credits. Oh my God, I’m so confused. Maybe I should recharge my phone and then hustle for some food.

The monolog above is a clear example of how people take their cell phones. Some prioritize recharging cell phones to other needs. Interestingly, many people who struggle to meet their daily needs are able to afford recharging their cell phones I always tell people that cell phones though very essential, comes with enormous responsibilities; which I can almost equate to taking care of a child.

Since the beginning of the global recession, the prices of goods and services have racketed above proportion with many people complaining of their expenditures exceeding their incomes.

 For example in Liberia, the price of petroleum is about $3.71 USD, which has caused the increment in transport fares. Because of this, there have been cries from citizens and residents stressing that their monthly transport expenditure is almost equivalent to their monthly wages, leaving them with little or nothing by the time they receive their pay checks, and may not be able to meet their other basic needs; thus causing them to live in poverty.    

Reports from the 2008 Liberian census states that over sixty percent of the population of the average Liberian lives on less than one dollars USD a day.

Ironically, many of these people always have credits on their phones. You may wonder if the census report is then true. The answer is YES, the report is absolutely the truth. The next question is, where do they get the money from? The answer is simple; they get it from their wages. The secret is cell phone is either the no. 1 or no. 2 priority when they receive their incomes.

Personally, I estimated my spending on recharge cards last year to about $260.00 USD, even though I wasn’t working.

Some people even spend more then $1000.00 USD annually on recharge cards. For instance, I know a lady who spends at least $60.00 USD per week on recharge cards. If calculated, she spends $420.00 USD in two weeks and $5040.00 USD in one year.

Nevertheless, many people find nit normal to spend on cell phones and may not even include it in their daily, weekly, monthly, or even yearly expenditure.

These are all comments of people reacting to the question “what would your life be without a cell phone”?

Over the years, cell phone has become an integral part of our world; an addendum to the already advancing technological world.

Traditionally, this electronic device was used for oral communication; but nowadays, it serves numerous purposes including: radio, TV, internet, camera, diary, photo album, organizer, among others.

I once listened to a BBC radio program (on a similar topic) in which many of the callers and texters made comments similar to that of the ones mentioned supra. Many of these callers were from Africa, which signifies how important the cell phone is to the African society. Interestingly, the African populace according to research uses more cell phone to that of other continents, which shows how, integrated it is in Africa.

Unlike other countries, a certain percent of the Liberian population still use cell phones for oral communications only. I may seem quite strange to know that some cannot operate a cell phone beyond just receiving and answering calls.

Cell phones are no doubt another wonder of the modern world; I use it for several purposes including those mentioned above’ and I am always grateful to the inventor. But notwithstanding, I do think I can live without my cell phone. As a matter of fact, I’ve lost it on several occasions and not once did I feel too disheartened.

But somewhat, I might be wrong because I don’t think I can live without communication, and in my country cell phone is the number one form of communications.

What do you think your Life will be with out yours?
