Priest Who 'Died And Went To Hell' Describes Bizarre Experience 'During His Visit'

Many people have pondered the nature of the afterlife, often imagining what heaven and hell might be like. For Pastor Gerald Johnson, these musings turned into a startling reality when he claimed to have experienced hell firsthand.

In a TikTok video that quickly went viral, Pastor Johnson shared an extraordinary tale. In 2016, after suffering a heart attack, he alleged that his spirit left his physical body and descended into hell.

His expectation, having lived a life devoted to good deeds and helping others, was to ascend to heaven. However, his journey took an unexpected turn.

During this out-of-body experience, Johnson described finding himself not in a heavenly realm but in what he perceived as the earth's center. It was there, amidst the flames and darkness, that he encountered something entirely unexpected: music.

According to Johnson, demons in hell were singing popular songs, including Rihanna's "Umbrella" and Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry Be Happy." He explained that these songs were being used to torment the souls in hell, a claim that generated much debate and amusement online.

The idea that hell might feature such familiar tunes led to a flurry of comments and reactions on social media. Many people found the notion humorous rather than frightening, with some joking about wanting to join the dance party in hell. This light-hearted reaction, however, overshadowed the pastor’s intended message.

Johnson elaborated that the choice of music was deliberate, suggesting that contemporary songs carry a demonic influence. He asserted that the lyrics are designed to torment those who, in life, chose to engage with secular music rather than worship through religious songs.

This perspective highlights a common belief among some religious communities that modern entertainment can have negative spiritual implications.

Beyond the music, Johnson described a horrifying vision of hell, including the sight of a man in extreme agony, his body burned and eyes bulging, restrained by a demon with a chain. This vivid depiction aimed to convey the severe suffering he believes awaits those in hell.

A significant part of Johnson's revelation was his explanation of why he ended up in hell despite his good deeds. He recounted a divine message revealing that his hidden resentment and unforgiveness toward those wronged him were the real issues.

According to Johnson, God emphasized that his mission was to focus on his divine assignment and not harbor ill feelings.
