Where do we stand?

coptic

Many times Ive heard stories in which people saw heaven or hell or even both.  An example of some are:





I just want to know where the Coptic Orthodox Church takes a stand on this.

Honestly, I hate stuff like this. I always stay away from this, but they say that omina Tamav Ereenee had this experience, but I am not sure what the churches stance on this is. I am confused also, but either way, valid or not valid, it doesn't change anything, but it's still a good question that i would love to see answered.

They are nice stories but we shouldn't believe them unless the Church ratifies them.
And we shouldn't build our faith on them regardless.
