Ivan Tuttle thought he was a Christian, but then he found himself in hell. Find out how he escaped!
Ivan Tuttle was dead for almost 3 hours. During that time, he was literally taken to Hell, then Heaven and back to Earth. The revelation he received was so profound, God told him not to talk about it for 35 years!
We have just published the expanded, updated edition of Ivan’s book, A Journey to Hell, Heaven and Back, that includes details never before revealed. Beyond a vivid depiction of Hell and Heaven, Ivan shares revelation and prophecy God downloaded to him that is essential end-time information. He saw future events in specific nations and regions of the world, some of which have already come to pass.
In his 3-CD series, Heaven, Hell and the Future, Ivan also shares about:
• Aborted and stillborn babies in Heaven • Why he saw pastors in Hell • Both demonic portals and portals to Heaven • What Heaven is like (and much more)
Ivan’s book and 3-CD/audio series will strengthen and deepen your walk with God. Current events clearly show that’s where your focus belongs today!
My guest was taken to Hell,
and he saw The Devil’s
secret weapon that is
sending millions that think
they’re Christians to Hell.

SR: Hello, Sid Roth here
with Ivan Tuttle, and,
Ivan, you’ve had some
encounters that few
people on Earth have
had in the invisible realm.
You were raised in
a Christian home,
IT: Yes.
SR: You even went down the
altar and accepted Jesus,
but you quickly left
the things of God,
and it had a lot to do with
a difficult childhood.
Tell me a
little bit about it.
IT: Well, Sid, I was diagnosed
with ADHD
at a much later age, but what
we didn’t know
is, as a child, I had ADHD, so
I was constantly
on the move. I had
a father that had a
very angry streak to him,
angry side to him,
and my father would
beat me with a belt.
In fact if you look at the
x-rays you’ll see
ribs in my back that
were broken from my
dad actually
hitting me with a belt.
SR: That’s really hitting.
IT: Yeah, that’s really
hitting. That’s beyond
a normal hit. So, yeah,
I went through a
lot of things like that.
I spent most of my
time alone as a child,
playing in the woods, et cetera,
things like that.
SR: At 26 you had a blood clot
that resulted in,
in his death, and as a
matter of fact,
this was a while
ago. This was in 1978.
I’m going to take
you back to the time.
You had just gotten
out of the hospital.
It’s 9:20 p.m.
Something woke you
by grabbing you.
What was that?
IT: Yeah, Sid, I got home
from the hospital and I
finally went to
sleep at around 9:20.
Something grabbed
ahold of my left wrist,
and when it did this, it
pulled me right up out
of the bed. I mean,
it just jerked me
out of the bed like I was
nothing, like I
was a rag doll,
and, you know, I tried to
fight it.
That’s the first instinct you
have.
SR: Of course.
IT: And so I was trying to do
this,
and this thing, I realized
all of a sudden that,
hey, this is a demon,
and I knew instantly I was
going to Hell, and I
knew that’s where I was
heading, and so
this demon took me,
and I started
hearing these screams,
I started smelling
this awful smell,
and this demon
just kept taking me.
It just kept
traveling, I mean,
you feel you were going.
And this demon
took me to Hell.
And I’m in Hell, and I’m
looking around in Hell,
and I’m seeing all
these different people,
even people I recognize,
even some from my
childhood that I saw. I
saw former pastors. I saw,
SR: You saw people that
you felt were Christians?
IT: Oh yes, yes.
Well, see, one of the
things that happen is when
you’re in the
spirit, after you pass on,
when you look at
somebody else,
you instantly know
everything about them.
There doesn’t have to be
communication
because you know
everything about them.
So what happens is that
you’re looking at these
people, and you’re
kind of speaking to them,
and they’re telling
you, and you just read
everything that’s
happened in their life,
so you know
exactly what they did,
and it’s amazing because
these are not people you
would expect to
see there. You just
wouldn’t, but yet, these people
are in Hell, and
they’re tortured,
and the torturing
that goes on there,
Sid, is unbelievable, but
the thing that I think is
the lasting impression on
me was the hopelessness
because, Sid,
when you’re in Hell,
there’s no hope. I
mean, you’re done.
Once that happens,
you’re done.
There’s no hope because
when you try to pray,
it’s like an iron ceiling
or iron dome over you.
It goes nowhere.
You know, you’re done.
You had your chance when
you were here on Earth,
and now you’re down there.
And I’m watching these
people as they’re being
tortured. They can’t
move. They’re solid.
They’re put in a place.
I don’t see an
actual chain,
but it’s as if there’s
a chain around them,
and they can’t move.
They can swing their hands
around and move their feet
around, but they’re
not going anywhere.
And these demons are
attacking them and
attaching to them.
I saw a young lady that
was 18 years of age when
she died, and she was
hit by a drunk driver,
and she couldn’t
understand why she was in
Hell, but she never
accepted Jesus as her
savior, and that’s
why she was there.
SR: You saw millions of
people that have bought
lies while in Earth,
that where churchgoers,
in Hell. What was the cause?
IT: Sid, one of the
biggest causes are that
people believe that all
you have to do is just do
one little thing
to accept Jesus-
SR: Say a prayer [Indistinct].
IT: Right, and then you
can do whatever you want
in life, and
that’s not true.
You can’t do that.
SR: What about the current
teaching that says,
well, once you’ve
accepted the Lord,
His grace takes care of past,
present and future sins.
There’s nothing you have to
do about it.
IT: That’s not in The Bible.
SR: Of course not.
IT: And not only is it not
in The Bible, that’s
sending so many people
to Hell, it’s unreal.
You would be surprised.
Listen, you
can’t just say,
“Okay, once you do it,
that’s it,” because it
tells you in The Bible
certain people, certain
things, you can’t enter
the Kingdom of Heaven.
I don’t care who
you are. You can’t.
It doesn’t matter if
you’re telling little lies
and you think,
“Oh, I’m okay.
I’m getting just
little white lies.”
No, there’s
still problems.
You know, you have
to daily just say,
I do every day
before I go to sleep,
“Lord, just forgive me
of anything.”
I just do that
on a daily basis.
In fact, if I catch myself
doing something wrong,
I instantly want to correct that
because
I’ve been there.
I don’t want to go back there.
I don’t want anybody to ever go
there.
SR: You saw some things
that’ll be helpful to us.
You saw demons going back
and forth from Hell to
Heaven, to deceive.
Tell me about that,
especially children.
IT: Oh, that deception
was so bad. The
deception started, there
was a couple of things.
One was video games, and
this is before video games
were invented, and the
demons were going up there
and getting into these
games to distort
young people’s minds.
Not only that, the
demons were also,
They’re going back
and forth from Hell,
from the center of Hell
where Lucifer was at,
and going back up to the
Earth so that they could
get to the Earth and
deceive these people.
They would enter
into people’s bodies,
and they would usually
find somebody that was
very handsome or a
very beautiful woman or a
handsome man, and they
would enter that body,
and they would use that
person to deceive as many
people as they could,
especially lukewarm
Christians or
warmed up Christians,
you know, and they
would try to deceive them,
to take them out, to,
you know,
do immoral
things with them,
et cetera, and that’s
what was happening,
and that’s what
was going on.
I saw that in 1978.
I watched it happen.
SR: What would you say
was the worst thing
you saw in Hell?
IT: Wow. Everything
was the worst thing.
SR: Do people really, I
have a question, do
people really feel pain?
IT: Yes.
SR: I mean, like, physical
pain, in Hell?
IT: Ah, Sid, the pain in
Hell is much worse than
on Earth. You see, when you
get a splinter or a cut,
you feel it
one little area?
SR: Of course.
IT: But when you
are in the Spirit,
which you’re in
the Spirit in Hell.
When you’re down there,
that pain goes through
your whole body.
So, every bite mark that
the demons put on you,
every scratch
that they do to you,
everything they
poke into you,
it hurts in
your whole being.
And, Sid, you
can’t pass out.
In the flesh, if you
get in a lot of pain,
you can just pass out.
You can’t do that,
and it never ends.
Sid, this is the thing: It
never, ever ends.
It’s always there.
It’s always going
to keep continuing.
It never goes away.
SR: There’s no hope.
IT: No, there’s no hope. None.
SR: Why do the demons
keep penetrating people
with pain and suffering?
Why do they keep it up?
IT: Sid, they enjoy
it. That’s what makes
them happy. They
enjoy doing that
kind of stuff to us. They
do it because, especially,
SR: They’re like sadists.
IT: Exactly, but
especially if you were a
Christian at one time, oh,
then they really thrive on
that because that’s
something that now
they can tease you
for all eternity.
Listen, that demon
was laughing at me,
making fun of me, and it
was doing the same thing
to all these other people.
All these demons were
because I bought it.
I bought the lie.
SR: And all of a
sudden, you heard a voice.
IT: Yes.
Sid, that was the most
wonderful thing that
happened to me in
Hell, is I’m there,
and all of a sudden, I
heard a voice that rang
out and said “It’s
not his time yet.
You must let him go.
I made a promise
to his mother.”
SR: Ivan went to Heaven
and saw the future
of many countries.
You want to find out
about that promise and
why it worked?
Next.
[Music] >>: We now return to
“It’s Supernatural!”
[Applause]
SR: My guest died.
He found himself in Hell,
but all of a sudden he
heard a voice and
the voice said,
“It’s not your time,” and
the next thing you knew,
you’re, like, in
the gate of Heaven.
IT: Yeah, I was.
SR: Why? Why? You
were at that point
a backslidden,
nonbelieving person.
IT: Exactly. You know,
I’d still be in Hell
if it wasn’t for two things.
One, it wasn’t my time,
and the second thing,
I have a mother
that prayed for me.
Now, my mother
prayed for me,
SR: Yeah, but everyone
has people pray for them.
IT: Well, that’s good.
Keep it up,
because my mother
prayed for me three
times a day, at
least, all the time,
and by the time I’m
26, that’s over
22,000 prayers.
And she, my mother, was
a praying woman of God,
and she hung onto
God and she said,
“God, You’ve got to make
me a promise none of my
children will go to Hell.”
And so, she asked God
to make her a promise,
and she believed God
made her that promise.
He did, and that’s
why I went to Heaven.
SR: Tell me the first
thing that, first of all,
did you know that you
were in Heaven
in that point?
IT: Actually, Sid, yes, I did.
I knew I was in Heaven.
The reason why I
knew I was in Heaven,
first of all, I saw
what it looked like,
and it was just the
opposite of Hell.
It had to be Heaven.
You know, when
you got there,
and how beautiful it was,
your spirit knows these
things, and I’m
greeted by an angel,
so that’s the
first clue I had.
This was as an angel.
As bad as it was and as
hopeless as it was there,
in Hell, I now had this
most euphoric feeling.
Everything was wonderful.
It was beautiful.
Here I am. I’m up in Heaven.
this angel is greeting me.
This angel is
talking to me,
explaining things
to me about it.
Yeah, it was great.
I knew I was in Heaven.
SR: What’s about the
first thing you remember
seeing that had an impact?
IT: The first impact of
course was the angel,
you know, because the
angel was so tall and
so big. The voice
that that angel
had was so powerful,
but yet he was so gentle.
I say he because he
looked like a man,
was very gentle, and
he took my by the hand,
and then I walked
through the gate,
and as I walked through
the gate of Heaven,
you know, I saw
these buildings.
I saw these, like, white stone,
like I’ve never seen before,
sparkling white stone,
it was unbelievable.
I saw streets of
gold, the softest gold.
This gold you
could step on,
it was so soft
and beautiful,
but it was gold. You
knew it was gold.
It was beautiful, and
then there was a river
flowing right through
the city, and this river
was crystal clear.
It sounded like
children, You know,
when you ever
hear babies laugh,
it sounded like
babies’ laughter.
It was so beautiful.
Heaven was just
awesome like that.
When you could see those
buildings sitting there,
and you could listen to that
river,
I could listen to it all day,
like little children. It was
beautiful.
One of the most
wonderful things
I’ve ever seen or heard
in my life, I got to see
that while I was up
in Heaven.
Heaven is
unbelievable, Sid.
SR: You were telling me
the difference between
living 100 percent in the
Spirit,
or maybe as a believer,
2 percent in the Spirit,
and 98 percent
still in the flesh.
What’s it like to
live all in the Spirit,
100 percent?
IT: Wow, okay. That’s
a loaded question, Sid.
SR: I know!
IT: It is a feeling that,
I wish I could put it into
words for you, but
I’ll tell you this.
Every time I get a chance
that I can be alone with
God, and I can get
into the Spirit, and I
really mean this
because I really love
that feeling. When
you’re there, when
the glory of God
is on you, and it’s
so strong on you,
you’ll never feel
anything like it.
It penetrates every
part of your being.
You smell it. You
taste it. You feel it,
every single thing.
You hear it.
You feel, hear, taste,
and see the glory of God,
and it’s all over you.
no matter where
you go in Heaven,
it’s on you, and that’s
something that you can,
Once that’s on you,
it’s with you forever.
It’s unbelievable. It’s great.
SR: You told
me, in Heaven,
you know everything.
You don’t have to
go on a computer,
“What is this?”
IT: It’s like, you could
look at, like, we use
Google today, but you
could look at it and go,
“I instantly knew
everything about it.”
Everything you
did, you, because,
see, it’s your spirit.
Our minds are more of a
filter than it is what we
think it is, our brains are.
Our spirit knows everything.
Our spirit is alive.
Our spirit never rests.
It’s awake 24/7 because
there is no day and
night in Heaven.
It’s all the time,
it just is, always.
SR: The more we on Earth,
the more we yield to the
spirit as opposed to our
sense knowledge of our
flesh, the more we
have Heaven on Earth?
IT: Absolutely! You got it!
That’s exactly right, Sid.
SR: I got it.
IT: You got it.
SR: What about
time in Heaven?
IT: There’s no time.
You can spend 1
second in Heaven,
and you feel like
you’ve been there,
you know, 10 years.
You spend almost 3
hours in Heaven,
let me tell you what,
people joke around and
they say, you know,
1,000 years is like,
you know, 1 day is
like 1,000 years.
Well, if that’s the
case, that was 44 years in
Heaven because I was
there for about 3 hours,
so it was great.
I got to see a
lot of things,
and there’s no time,
and it’s just beautiful.
There’s no, you can’t
judge distance because
it’s just so vast.
You could never
imagine how big it is.
SR: You were shown
end-time events,
even, this is phenomenal.
You know, you read in
the Book of Genesis how
God created the Earth.
You had a ringside
seat in Heaven, how
God created the Earth.
What was that like?
IT: Sid, when
the angel said,
“Turn and look,” I
turned and looked,
and when I did, the
angel just completely
disappeared.
All I saw was a
timeline of the Earth,
and I watched as
the Earth was formed.
Watched just a big ball
of water in darkness just
sitting here, and all of a
sudden the Spirit of God
came down, and hovered,
just completely hovered
over, completely
over the whole Earth,
and just was, His presence
just lit up everything,
lit that water up,
and that water was just
teeming with life,
spiritual life so to speak
because the Spirit
of God, it reflects,
but water also absorbs, so
it’s absorbing all that,
and we think about this.
You’ve got to
remember, Sid: Life.
Water gives life.
God gives life to water,
and so it just transfers
over, so yes, I
got to see that.
It was wonderful,
beautiful.
SR: Okay, so
much to discuss.
IT: Yes.
SR: You saw, he
saw end-time events.
For instance, you saw the
bar code that was going to
be used for the
mark of the beast,
but he saw
what, back in ’78,
IT: 1978.
SR: Before they
had the barcodes.
IT: Yes.
SR: What did it look like?
IT: Well, Sid,
it’s kind of unique.
It goes onto the back of your
hand
or your forehead. It’s an
invisible tattoo.
It’s completely invisible.
You don’t see it
with the naked eye.
You have to put it
underneath a scanner that
every place will have.
Every place will
have it at that time,
but I watched.
It’s like a barcode and QR
codes all mixed together,
and it goes on the back
of your hand or on your
forehead, and it describes
everything about who you
are, where you’ve
been, what you’ve done,
everything. What
you’re allowed to buy,
sell, if you can.
SR: Time is escaping.
You saw what was
going to happen to a
number of nations.
Pick one real quick
and tell me a couple
highlights. So, what’s
going to happen?
IT: Well, let’s pick Russia.
There’s things that
are happening in Russia, and
as the future goes,
and I saw some of this
too, some of it’s
already happened,
but more things
are happening.
I saw holes opening up
in the Earth in Russia.
that’s happened since I
came out with reporting
that in the book.
So those type of
things are coming out,
and these
things are going on,
but I watched
what happened,
because this, he’s
like the big bear,
and they think they’re
going to do a whole lot,
but guess what?
The Russian people
are going to actually
revolt against who’s
running in office,
even right now,
and you’re going to
watch this happen.
And they’re trying to
do different things,
and I’m telling you,
it’s going to be a mess
over there. There’s
going to be things
happening in Russia
that we never thought
would ever happen,
and it’s going to do it.
It’s going to
be unbelievable.
SR: I’ll tell you what,
there’s no safe place
anywhere on Earth except Jesus,
except the Messiah being in you,
except the Messiah
being your Lord.
Say this prayer. Let’s
solidify your situation
for now and forever.
Repeat after me.
Dear God.
>>: Dear God.
SR: I’m a sinner.
>>: I’m a sinner.
SR: I’ve
sinned against You.
>>: I’ve
sinned against You.
SR: I’m so sorry.
>>: I’m so sorry.
SR: Jesus —
>>: Jesus —
SR: Come inside of me.
>>: Come inside of me.
SR: Be my Lord.
>>: Be my Lord.
SR: I love you, God.
>>: I love you, Lord.
SR: Amen.
>>: Amen.
SR: Ivan?
IT: Yes.
SR: Why did you
come back to Earth?
IT: Sid, I came
back with a message.
I’m back here to warn
people that there really
is a Hell, but also to
let them know that there
really is a Heaven, and
it is time that we start
doing things,
but the big thing,
Sid, is for
the Christians,
it’s time that we
start evangelizing.
There’s a greater
glory that’s coming,
and there’s things that
we need to do to get
prepared for those things.
SR: You did not open your
mouth publicly about this
for 35 years, and now
you’re starting to talk
about it. Why?
IT: Sid, I was told
when I was sent back,
I was told “Do not
speak about these things.
Do not talk
about these things,
until the Holy Spirit
releases me to do it.”
I kept my mouth shut.
SR: And you saw the
glory come to Earth.
Pray a release of the
glory on everyone
watching right now.
IT: Yes, right now.
Heavenly Father,
I just pray that
everybody that’s
watching this, I
don’t care who they are,
that God, if they
believe in You in any way,
shape, or form, I
release that glory.
I release the anointing
of the glory on them.
I pray right now, God,
that that glory will
encompass every
part of their mind,
body, soul and
spirit, and that,
God, this glory will take
them so that they’ll do
things they’ve do
things they’ve never done.
I pray right now,
Heavenly Father,
that You release them into
laying hands on the sick,
that You release them
to cast out demons,
that You release them
to just go ahead and
raise the dead,
God. All of that,
we ask this in Jesus
Holy and precious
Name, Amen.
SR: I agree.
[Applause]
I am blessed by this message
