Opis

All Christians are interested in heaven the future abode of God's children. In fact people who may not enjoy a vital Christian life through a definite relationship with Christ manifest an unusual in-terest in this subject. The most popular gospel songs are those which tell of Jesus and heaven. Close to the favorite, "The Old Rugged Cross, '' are such songs as "No Disappointment in Heaven," "The Sweet Bye and Bye," "When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder" and those of a similar nature. The questions most frequently asked in a public question box are those about the future life. "Where are the dead?" "Are they in a conscious state of existence?" "After death will we know them?" "Will we be able to converse with them?" "What change will the resurrection make in the present state of the dead?" All of these indicate that people are unusually interested in the future life. This book has been written to give light on the subject of heaven and to answer many of these questions concerning the future life. Doctor Heslop, the author, has for years been an ardent Bible student. He has had a long experience as a Bible teacher, all of which has given him a wide grasp of the scriptural teaching on this subject. He brings an array of scriptural statements to substantiate his teachings. The reading of this book will bring comfort to those whose loved ones have departed to be with the Lord; it will inspire those who may be disheartened to continue the good fight of faith; it will encourage those who may have a tendency to discouragement because of the conditions existing in this present wicked world; it will brighten the hope of all who are followers of Christ and who are walking toward that city of gold; it will help us to be patient while we pass our pilgrimage here looking "for that city which hath foundations whose builder and maker is God."
