ERROR!, October 11, 2004
This review is from: Heaven Is So Real! (Paperback)
This book is a counterfeit, a deception, and demonically inspired.
I believe the author speaks the truth. She is experiencing spiritual encounters, but by which spirit? That is the question.
Her Jesus comes to her with a face she cannot see. He has demons peeking out at her from around his head. Her Jesus sends her into convulsions that she calls shakings. The results of these shakings cause her physical, disabling illness. Her Jesus shows her "his children" presently held in a purgtory-type state. "His children" are hopelessly waiting to be sent to hell. He also reveals to her a lake filled with his "filthy, dirty" blood that is intermingled with our sins. (This is in direct opposition to the pure Blood of the Lamb that was demonstrated and foretold through Temple practices and Biblical prophesy.)
Her Jesus has Choo Thomas at his side as he is worshipped by prostrate souls in his throne room; a posture she has no impulse to take herself. He gave her a crown to wear, an event that is yet to happen for all Christians rewarded at the Judgement Seat of Christ at the end of this age.
Choo Thomas elevates herself to the same status as John (who wrote the book of Revelation), Elijah and other prophetic Biblical writers as she, a self proclaimed prophetess, writes her last-days book. She tells us that the reading of her book by Christians everywhere is a necessary and pivital end-time event that must occur in order for last-days prophesy to be fullfilled. Jesus Christ, Himself, waits for Choo Thomas, alone, to set things in motion, single handedly, by the power of her visions, translations, the creation of this book, and her heavenly dance.
Choo Thomas' dance, taught to her by her Jesus, takes her approximately one year to learn and refine. She describes the elaborate, excruciatingly detailed movements she must practice for hours and days and weeks and months. She obsessively masters this dance during a period of isolation where she must memorize the numeric sequence of how many times her wrist twirls, etc., and her Jesus tells her she is being prepared for a final delivery of this phrophetic last-days dance before her church congregation. It must be performed with one hundred percent accuracy. This is her misssion and she must not fail.
Choo Thomas arrives at the appointed church on God's appointed day after being told it must be danced without error in front of these people but no one in church leadership will allow her the dance!
She takes us to a heaven that has the tortured souls and flames of hell within the sight of heaven's inhabitants. Her heaven shows us the "powder rooms" or bathrooms within its castles. Won't we have a glorified body?
This heaven has walls covered with mirrors so she can gaze at her own image after she changes into her heavenly robe and crown. Sadly, the central theme of this book seems to parallel this thought. The glory of this author's last-days exploits overshadows the glory of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords from its beginning to its end. It is difficult to read past the repetitive praises of Choo Thomas to find the Holiness of our God!
Choo Thomas sees her mother, burning in the flames of hell, yet she associates her spiritual visions to that of a gift generationally passed down to her from this same woman. I fear that may be true.
I sincerely pray the ongoing torment this woman is experiencing will soon come to an end. I pray freedom for her mind and healing for her soul. May God's Light of Truth bring peace and deliverance to her.
If you must read this book, I advise you read it carefully.

I dont believe that this book is from God, April 11, 2006
This review is from: Heaven Is So Real! (Paperback)
While reading this book I was thrown into the worst 1 and a half weeks of my entire life and I'm not being dramatic. The Jesus and Holy Spirit that I know was not the God that I read about in this book. We are suppose to test the spirits with the Bible. I thought that, "okay, if even one thing in this book is wrong I can throw it out as being not from God". If it was "Jesus book" as her Jesus said and that she need not stress over it because it is him writing it through her then, of course, he wouldn't let anything in it be unbiblical. Right?
The Jesus of her book says repeatedly that Christians who do not tithe will go to hell. 2 Corinthians 9:6 Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. 7Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. If it were so important for Christians to give 10% (which is what the word tithe means) why didn't God make sure that there was more about this in the New Testament? Also, one of the Ten Commandments is to honor the Sabbath day, which is Saturday. Most don't do this. Why didn't her Jesus warn of this sin leading to hell also. I thought that all sins were equal. It doesn't add up logically as well as spiritually.
I was thrown into a state of panic. "Who will make it if this is the truth? Not many." I thought. For 1.5 weeks I was incapacitated. I could not function, literally. After 1.5 weeks and searching every book, person and Bible that I could get my hands on, the horrid fear that had crippled me was lifted suddenly while watching a video on the life of Jesus. It wasn't a gradual lifting, it was very sudden. Maybe someone was praying for me at that time. I know that a lot of people were.
I am sad for Choo Thomas and have been praying very, very hard for her. I believe that her heart is in the right place but she is being deceived. The only way that we can know the truth is through the Bible and the Holy Spirit speaking to our hearts. I pray that anyone who reads this book will put it aside after reading and spend time in the Word, pray and listen intently to what the Holy Spirit is saying to your heart about this book. God bless you and see you in heaven!

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God...(1 John 4:1), February 13, 2006
This review is from: Heaven Is So Real! (Paperback)
My wife was reading this book. I felt to look it over after she mentioned a few things in it. 1 John 4:1 tells us, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world." I told my wife after I reviewed the book that if we are to take Choo Thomas's word that this book is really written by Jesus, thru her, then we can then glue it to the back of our Holy Bible and make another book of our Holy Scriptures. Satan will appear as an angel of light and impersonate the real Christ Jesus to receive glory due to the real Christ Jesus.
The Jesus Choo Thomas is referring to in this book is an imposter -Satan himself! Why did Jesus not have his Apostle John to write about heaven like this in the book of Revelation? Christians are now supposed to believe that God has raised Choo Thomas up as he did his own Apostle's? I guess Jesus did not accomplish everything he needed to do with them! This is dangerous and leaves a Christian open to be swayed by any false prophesy and teaching just because they say it is from God!
Choo believes this encounter is from Jesus because the spirit that spoke to her said he was Jesus -I am not President Bush or anyone else because I say I am! Satan or any demon is not Christ Jesus just because they say they are. Satan would be glad to take the Glory of this even under the name of the real Jesus! How can Choo give such a detailed description of heaven and angels? Because Satan and his demons where there and they saw first hand, heaven and the angels. Choo is taken into a hypnotic trance-like state and this enables demonic influence to communicate to her mind through images of heaven and angels as they know them to really be -since they have been there before they were kicked out! Thats how! Satan is an angel of light because he knows how to imitate the real light! Satan is a master deceiver. I know it all sounds good and people today are itching for a sign and revelation from God. Because of this itching some will fall for the most incredible deceptions. Choo herself has fallen for this great deception. I know it sounds right because she points to Jesus. Does Satan care if people point to Jesus if it is actually him behind the mask. No! He doesn't care. If anyone comes to Christ from her book -then they came to the wrong Christ. The Christ people should come to is the Christ of the Holy Bible -Not Choo Thomas's revelation from a false spirit god! This is why we are warned to "try the spirits" -how do we "try the spirits"? We line up what the spirit is saying against God's Word.
Does God's Word give an indication that even on the day of Pentecost that people were jerking and miracle dancing in some sort of ritual? No it does not! God will not imitate Satanic rituals! But Satan will try to imitate God with adding his demonic rituals in with it. This gives it a good sugar coating to intice poeple to believe it is of God. We can no more listen to the revelation of Choo Thomas over Joseph Smith of the Mormans. The teaching of Joseph Smith sounds good on the surface -So does the revelation of Choo Thomas! Her talent, or Satan's talent, for adding God's Holy Word to her revelation is very enticing for many Christian believers awaiting a new revelation from God.
Choo says that since 1996 that every waking hour is spent with Jesus. She says that her husband has been so understanding or their marriage would not have made it -is this God's intention according to His Word? To take a married woman and seperate her unto Himself! Show a scripture for that! And while you would be looking for a scripture for that look up one that would allow her to overtake the platform of her church despite what the pastor would have to say about it! Also, why did Jesus not tell her His real birthday date? Rather than telling her on Christmas eve that it was his birthday! Does not Jesus realize that Christmas eve is not his real birthday? Why does Jesus not emphasize the resurrection day? The biggest day of the Bible! Are aborted babies really stored naked, side by side, in a warehouse building awaiting their saved mothers to come to heaven and raise them? This is about as hoky as it gets!
I know many will say, "who is he to come against a beautiful sister in Christ". First I am not coming against a beautiful sister in Christ -only against the false doctrine of her book! Trying (testing) the spirits to see whether they are of God (1 John 4:1) shows a clear picture that her "hypnotic trance vision journey" is far from truth. This is not anything less than a Anti-Christ Satanic spirit passing himself off as Jesus to Choo Thomas and anyone else willing to be lead astray from the truth of God's Word by this so called new revelation from an imposter Jesus. I may only be a voice crying out in the wilderness of cyber world -but so be it! Amen and Amen!
