He spent 18 days in heaven… and what he saw changed everything.
Gabe Poirot, author of “18 Days In Heaven”, joins Tony to share the shocking moment a skateboard accident left him clinically dead, launching him into an encounter beyond the veil where he witnessed the chaos of the second heaven, the reality of spiritual warfare, and was ultimately drawn into the presence of Jesus Himself. What he describes isn’t symbolic, it’s a vivid account of leaving his body, being pulled through a war-filled spiritual realm, and standing before Christ, where fear, guilt, and shame were instantly erased by grace. The conversation unpacks what he saw about prayer, spiritual authority, and the unseen battle happening right now, along with the urgency of the time we’re living in. Sent back with a clear message, Gabe now shares what he believes people are missing: this life is not the full story, and the window to respond is closing faster than we think.
Please pray for Tony’s wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!

HE IS A CON ARTIST!!!!
2 corinthians 13:14 KJV The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
Lord heal her completely and quickly, keep her free from pain and anxiety, in the name of Jesus amen.
I love all of this. I still don’t look at the “any day” as doom and gloom because of testimonies his and the end of revelation. I definitely don’t hold the view that Tony holds onto that all hell is breaking loose but hell is breaking loose because it’s being eradicated and that’s exciting.
It's crazy how much this guy looks like kyle rittenhouse.
I had an encounter with Jesus listening to this he reached out and said Im always here then reached out and held my heart on his hands!! Ive had encounters with the lord but this was intense and longed for! Thank you Jesus!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

This guy has been exposed of lying already
Tony, please look into the use of IVERMECTIN and MEBENDAZOLE for Lindsey. Peer reviewed studies have shown that 84.4% of patients taking these two drugs for 6 months have benefited & show that their cancer is either completely gone, regressed or had stopped spreading. Breast cancer is among the many cancers it has shown to work on in addition to colorectal, pancreatic, glioblastoma, prostate, and melanoma cancers. And to everyone else, stop getting the covid vaccines! Nicholas Holshire, an epidemiologist, explains that cancer has exploded in people who received the vaccine.
Praying for you Lindsay, and your family, in name of Jesus Christ ✝️
28:54 BEST quote EVER

MOSES SAW THE
EYES OF CHRIST SHOW ME THAT WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE DONT ADD TO THE HOLY WORD BRO

STOP IT MUCH YOU SAID IS YOUR OWN BS
Gabe is a liar and is good at false humility
People reject my story too, but I seen Jesus and heaven people make fun of me, but I know that I talk to Jesus and I know I got to see what it’s gonna be like on the day of the rapture and I know I got to see a mansion in heaven 🕊️
JESUS IS THE WORD!! Its so awesome to hear this Testimony! Praise JESUS!
Unfortunately Gabe has been caught contradicting himself and not being truthful he fooled me
Do you really think god, who is love is somehow bound to this time and space such that Trinity cannot continue to love and allow his beloved children to see ana feel who they are and whose they are?? Is there what preachers call salvation after death? Do you believe if one doesnt say the sinner's prayer or get baptized your parent must send their beloved kids to burn for eternity? It goes against God's character. That theology is meant to create fear and threat. It just turns people off more a S allows for Christians to feel superior. We will all be surprised to discover who is there. Read Brad Jerseks book “Her gates will never be closed.”
Tony,, God gave Me a Beautiful Woman to be My Wife and I only had Her for 3 yrs,,She had leukemia and I prayed over Her, for Her, and so did Everyone I knew,, but She went Home to be with God…

Praise God!!! I'm praying for You and your Wife and Family..

1:10:28 Amen
❤❤❤Glory to God!!❤❤❤
Alkalinize, Lindsey. My friend battled 2 malignant tumors: one in her brain & one in her chest. She put 1 rounded Tablespoon of baking soda in 1/3 cup Maple Syrup, in a double boiler ( she cooked up 2/3 c ,at a time) (a 2 day supply) stirring constantly to dissolve the bak. soda. The daily intake was 1 Tablespoon morning & night. Doctors predicted 6 months life expectancy, & doing this, she lived 6+ years. She refused chemo, but they monitored her progress: MRI showed that her 'pingpong ball' sized tumors disappeared, except for small scars where the tumors had been. It took the doctors 3 years to ask her what she was doing. They were puzzled, but did not want to be responsible for the info. so different from conventional medicine.❤️✝️🕎
All other YouTubers who are saying these testimonies are lies they need to repent coz if they don't they will go to hell
This guy did NOT have a heavenly experience !!! It's all made up and he contradicts himself !!!!
A christian that laughs at your testomony is because it doesn't fit there idealogy of what they want to believe.
I just want to say, jesus knows of all our sins, he knows our past and our future
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty! The one who is and is to come!
In Ecclesiastes, the Bible tells us that the eye is never satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing (Ecclesiastes 1:8), and that of making many books there is no end (Ecclesiastes 12:12). We never get tired of chasing new stories, but we need to keep our minds free from any outside literature or teachings that try to tell us things that are simply not written in the Bible. Even if someone genuinely believes they had a personal vision, their experience can never be treated as equal to the Bible. God has already spoken to us perfectly through His written Word, and the Holy Spirit is our true teacher (1 John 2:27). The Bible strictly commands us: "Do not add to His words, lest He rebuke you and you be found a liar" (Proverbs 30:6). If God didn't reveal it in the scriptures, why are we seeking it elsewhere—even inside the church? In Revelation, God strongly warns against people who hunt for so-called "deeper stuff" or secret knowledge outside of what is written (Revelation 2:24). Even if someone claims a genuine private experience, it doesn't mean we should follow a message that adds to Scripture. The Bible explicitly warns us against listening to stories just because they tickle our ears (2 Timothy 4:3), warning that it leads to the blind leading the blind (Matthew 15:14). Jesus said, "Believe in God; believe also in me" (John 14:1), which means anchoring ourselves strictly in what He gave us. Look at the actual posture of heaven in the Bible. In Revelation, when John is shown the vision, he immediately prostrates himself face-down. All the elders fall prostrate before God. Nobody is casually walking around or focusing on earthly, human details. Jesus Himself said that eternity is about the worship of God, not our human constructs (Matthew 22:30). Scripture warns us that while we all face a physical death, the real danger is the "second death"—the death of the spirit (Revelation 20:6). That eternal reality is what we need to focus on, not sensational stories. Don't be fooled or deceived. Please open your Bible, pray directly to God, and put your total belief in Jesus. We do not need anyone else's message to experience the absolute fullness of God's love.
Dude! You're lying! Your story has changed multiple times. I know you'll block me but you've contradicted yourself so many times it doesn't even matter. False prophets will face God's wrath. Repent!!
We are all One. We all come from One. We all go back to One. The onnes of all
Time is not a river. It's an ocean and you can swim in enny direction
32:14 I lost it😭 Gabriel youre such a beautiful person thank you for sharing your incredible testimony
37:52 🤯
I've NEVER had 40:56 go by faster
Of all the sins, of all the sinners, GOD, hates LIARS, the most.
He hates them. So much that he made a , special, special place for them.
This video and the interview really spoke me today. I’ve been a Christian for 52 yrs but I’ve learned more in the past few years than in all of the others put together.
I'm so happy this wasn't locked behind a paywall.
@shamounian timestamp 11.20 the chief disguiser
I'm sorry all the battles that have ever taken place or described in heaven weren't even really battles they barely lasted an instant and that's because God is King of Kings and everything about him is eternal. Everything is already written and done there's no battle happening anywhere it's already over
