Dr. Richard Eby has experienced many miracles in his life. But his story of life after death changed my life. He falls off a balcony and splits his head open. They rush him to the hospital and thinking he is dead they sew his head up without cleaning the wound. God shows him a glimpse of heaven. Afterwards he cannot remember the the fall. Later God lets him relive the fall to be able to tell others about the experience. A few years later while visiting the Holy Land. He enters the Tomb of Lazarus and everything goes dark. God speaks to him and tells him that he showed him a glimpse of heaven, now he will show him a glimpse of hell. His story is amazing! I saw him on a television show telling his story in 1979. I then went out and bought his book. It gave me the desire to start reading my Bible. Which is the greatest book of all!

I actually read this book for the first time some 20 years ago. At the time I was skeptical, but I kept reading. I can't say that I believed all it, but I was inspired by every word. When I finished reading, I purposed to live a life of faith where I was waiting for, and expecting the workings of a Supernatural God to invade my pitiful life. Let me say that God has been faithful! Today I am chronicling my own supernatural experiences for my kids in hopes that as the times grow more difficult they too will be inspired. Until that time, I will give them a copy of this book because we all need a Supernatural God who builds in us, words of testimony!

One of the better books that I've read over the past year. Dr. Eby provides a biographical review of the miracles that God has performed in his life, beginning with his birth in the pre-depression era through the 1980's. I heard about this book on the radio and it was described as Dr. Eby's trip to heaven after his clinical death due to an accident. What I found was a wonderful collection of stories about how God worked miracles throughout his entire life, including an amazing story of his brief trip to heaven (he describes it in great detail -- I can't wait!) and a brief trip to hell (enough of a description to scare the salvation right into a non-believer). Dr. Eby is a great story teller and the book is very easy to read and enjoy. A very uplifting and "feel good" book. A great book to read to kids too!

In a practical down to earth style Dr. Eby chronicles his life through a series of amazing miracles that happened to him and to those around him.

I read most all of this authors books, back when they first came out and he was making the rounds on TBN. He is a very friendly, personal sort of guy, that you could easily trust as your family doctor. There is quite a bit to be learned from his books & testimony. My faith was strengthened quite a bit at the time. His experance of having gone to heaven and returned to tell us about it, is only one of many miracles that he has experanced or witnessed in his life time. We should all be so willing, ready and able to tell about God, His Kingdom and His love for us.

I enjoyed the book, but bought it basically for the title, and there was only 1 or 2 chapters dedicated to his acual near death experience. Might have been more aptly titled the Life of Dr Eby.

I personally heard this man speak at a full gospel business mens meeting about 20 - 22 years ago in Cedar Falls, Iowa. I have never seen such humility in a man. I bought his books and read them and then shared them with friends. His story is a documented account. It can be verified. You need to read both Tell them I'm coming again and Caught up in Paradise. They will change your life.

Caught Up Into Paradise is a true story. It tells of many interesting facts that has happened in his life. He is a Christian man named Richard that lives in a world of sin. It is so amazing to learn from what he went through. He is blessed in so many ways. One part of the book he tells how he died when he fell off of a balconey and came back from being in heaven and tell how it was for him. This is just one miracles out of many he has had. In this book he is testifing of all the miracles that has happen in his life.
I really enjoyed this book. It was so interesting and rally helps you inhance your faith in God. I think Richard E. Eby did a great jpb writing all the details. I think Caught Up Into Paradise is a great book because I learned so many things about my religion I didnt know.
I thind Caught Up Into Paradise is a great book for anyone to read. It really gets your attetion and you want to see what other miracles are ahead.

Not much is written about Paradise, the book title is deceptive. It is more of an autobiography and chronicles supposed miracles in the author's life, culminating in a near-death experience.

I didn't read the book. But, I heard Dr. Eby on the radio with Sid Roth long ago explain his adventure. This interview can now be heard on YouTube for all to review.

While I think it's quite possible that Dr. Eby had an experience of heaven - since it was apparently surrounded by supernatural healing - the subsequent experience he claims to have had with the Lord five years later has to be false.

Sid Roth said, "You are 79 years young. You believe that you'll be alive when Messiah returns." Dr. Eby said, "Only because the Lord told me that. Messiah declared an answer to one of my first questions... later on... five years later... when he met me again to answer the questions that I wanted to know... 'I am coming back so soon that you'll still be alive... you will still be out doing what I tell you, namely to tell people what I showed you in heaven and later on in Hell.' He said, 'You will not die again because I allowed you to do it once.'"

Dr. Eby died in 2002. It's hard to doubt a story by a man who apparently had such a miraculous healing, i.e. seeing heaven. Yet, it's hard to understand why such a man would then tell such a tale that he would not die again. I don't see how he can be considered a credible source.
