Guest Pastor This Weekend
At Connections Church
Howard Pittman, a former Baptist minister, will lead Connections Churchâs service on Sunday, October 7, beginning at 10 am at Edmond Town Hall, 45 Main Street. He will also speak Tuesday and Wednesday, October 9 and 10, at 7 pm, at His Vineyard Christian Fellowship, 8 Grassy Plain Street in Bethel.
Mr Pittman will discuss what he learned in a near-death experience that befell him on an operating table on August 3, 1979.
 âAngels lifted my spirit from my body and took me immediately to what I call the second heaven,â said Mr Pittman. âIt was an entirely different world, filled with a vast number of evil spirits, demons, or fallen angels.â
Mr Pittman went on to say that each demon had an expertise in his one evil field.
âThere are no âgeneral practitionersâ among demons,â he said. âThese demons do not love each other. There is no love in this second heaven.â
Next, Mr Pittmanâs angels led him into what he calls the third heaven, a beautiful place, the place where God resides. He saw departed spirits, saints, on their way into heaven. The angels said he could speak to God but he could not go in unless he was ready to die, which he wasnât. And God spoke to him. As good as Mr Pittmanâs works for God were, God still chastised him, which is not to say he would not spend eternity in heaven with God.
âWe are called to put God first at all times,â Mr Pittman said.
Mr Pittman has written a number of books, including Placebo. A placebo, he says, is a medication prescribed more for the mental relief of a patient than for the actual effect on a disorder.
âToo often Satan is the prescriber of placebos,â Mr Pittman asserted. âAnd these placebos lead us away from God.â
