i put in my blog, i got the book `heaven is for real` by todd burpo, a pastor whose four year old son, had a near death experience, met jesus etc. apparently he had never been told his mother miscarried ad he saw his sibling, met jesus, due to a ruptured appendix that nearly killed him. as the pastor did try to be careful and not lead his son in accounts he said at four `jesus has markers.` todd does not translate what he means right away. like myself, i didnt get it. then it dawned on me, his hands, feet, side. they are prostestant so saying markers would be odd for a four year old. also colton would repeat jesus loves the children over and over. he did not say satan was in hell, interesting enough, but when his dad asked what satan looked like, it was door shut, nothing, he refused to speak. i think what interested me the most about colton was his dad showed him various paintings of jesus, and each one, colton said no, jesu doesnt look like that. later on, when the pastor began sharing the story, someone had forwarded thestory of another child who was four and had anear death experience, also claimed to meet jesus. so she was an artist and by 12 di a painting of jesu, which is in the book and really good. his dad showed it to colton and it was the first and only painting that colton said did look like jesus. i found that interesting, out of all the images hed seen, a child who claimed to have gone to heaven, he agreed on that one.
