At that, we began to go even higher into the sky, and now I could see the earth below.  Protruding out of the earth and scattered about in many places were funnels spinning around to a center point and then turning back again.  These moved high above the earth and looked like a giant, dirty type of slinky that moved continuously.  They were coming up from all over the earth.  "What are these?" I asked the Lord Jesus as we came near to one.

"These are the gateways to hell," He said.  "We will go into hell through one of them."

Immediately, we entered one of the funnels.  Inside, it looked like a tunnel, spinning around and around and back again like a top.

A deep darkness descended on us, and with the darkness came a smell so horrible it took my breath away.  Along the sides of this tunnel were living forms embedded in the walls.  Dark gray in color, the forms moved and cried out to us as we passed.  I knew without being told that they were evil.

The forms could move but were still attached to the walls.  A horrible smell came from them, and they screeched at us with the most awful cries.  I felt an invisible, evil force moving inside the tunnels.....
