Review Quotes
"Heaven and the Afterlife: The Truth about Tomorrow and What it Means for Today by Erwin W. Lutzer caught my attention as I sat at my Mother's bedside while she was fighting her battle with cancer.
There are three books combined into this one book...
1. One Minute After You Die 2. How You Can Be Sure You Will Spend Eternity with God 3. Your Eternal Rewards
The author uses scripture to let us know what Jesus has to say on these subjects. This book is a very LOUD wake-up call for everyone. Full of information on what the BIBLE and JESUS tell us waits on the other side. We can't change our mind after having arrived, we must do that here. The author lets us know, by using scripture, how to KNOW where we will spend eternity.
This can be both an encouraging book for Christians, or scary for non-believers when you get a glimpse of what awaits.
I highly recommend this book to everyone as I want to see everyone in Heaven someday.
I received an ARC (advanced readers copy) from Moody Publishers & NetGallery in exchange for my honest review."
