The statement that God moves in mysterious ways might better be stated, "God accomplishes His will in mysterious ways." The manner in which God has revealed Himself, His heaven, His salvation, and His will for mankind though has never been "mysterious". But that does not mean that He communicates in mysterious ways. Without question, God does move in mysterious ways at times. Some people believe that it is not anyone's responsibility to evaluate Colton's experience- that God moves in mysterious ways and therefore it is impossible to say one way or the other whether Colton's experience was truly of God or not. Is It Right To Question Colton's Experience Others like me, compare what Colton has said with what the Bible says concerning the various issues of the things of heaven and God's communication with man and find them contradictory. Of the unbelievers there are those who are atheists or those who give no merit to the "afterlife" and therefore reject his testimony. Then there are others like me who simply do not believe that what Colton experienced is from God. Others have examined his testimony and are, at the least, skeptical. Many of the people who have seen the Colton Burpo interview with Matt Lauer have responded with comments such as, "That's amazing," or "I was blessed," or some such positive response.
