An admonition from Heaven in the book "Scenes Beyond the Grave" (a vision of Marietta Davis)
Scenes Beyond the Grave, a book first published in 1859, contains the story of a young woman named Marietta Davis, who had a vision of Heaven and Hell in the 1840s, when she was 25 years old. She went into a coma and experienced revelations from God that fit with Biblical doctrine and do not contradict the Bible. But, being a Berean is a must, so I encourage you to seek God about this book, if you want to read it.

The copyright has expired and this book is in the public domain. I have quoted an excerpt from Chapter 18 below. Marietta just got back from a visit to Hell where she saw some of her deceased friends suffering the torment of Hell because they did not trust in Jesus to be their Savior and Lord.
A female angel speaks with Marietta and tells her the words in the quote below.
[Scenes Beyond the Grave
Chapter XVIII. [Chapter 18]
Marietta Arises to a Sphere of Harmony.]
[...]
"Learn from this, that he whose heart is not established in truth, whose nature is not controlled by the law of holy love, is exposed to the attracting influence of evil; for there is no safety for the soul not born of Divine Good. He who hath not this principle, is in moral condition exposed to those influences which tend to outer darkness, and the abode of those existing in the sphere of deadly magnetism.
