A Nanosecond to Eternity in the Twinkling of an Eye by Donald L. Montgomery

ISBN: 1-4241-2535-9, 125 pages, 5.5 x 8.5 Softcover PublisAmerica


This story of heaven and earth through the eyes of angels and their charges is exquisitely detailed. The descriptions of heaven, its inhabitants, its activities and the rationale behind this heavenly view are supported by illustrations that are equally compelling.

Two couples are the primary vehicles for the tour of heaven and the explanations of the spiritual experience. Earthly experiences are not totally ignored but rather reinvented for the benefit of heaven's occupants who may not have experienced their gifts on earth or who wish to grow in their skills in heaven: cooks, artists, engineers and various occupations have the tools at hand to experience and improve upon their gifts. Heaven is exceedingly satisfying for the resolution of earthly endeavors left unfinished and the enjoyment of recreational pursuits.

Unfinished earthly experiences resolved in heaven include relationships with family and friends, allowing the dissolution of distress to be replaced by the joy of acceptance and love. Jesus has regular meetings, attended by heaven's occupants and their angels. The spiritual meets the secular in this representation of order in the community.

This loving story breaks down a bit, however, through the wars of Armageddon, the destruction of earth in our experience, and its reconstruction for the benefit of the saved. Again, the descriptions are convincing, including the countries of the world, their politics and the recreation of an earth that is free of pain and evil.

The story flows with logic and comparison to scriptural references. The construction ties together a human view of a heavenly experience that meet's human desires without offending Christian values, Biblical references to tie this view to scripture, and illustrations that are exceptional. I highly recommend this work for its descriptive detail, and especially to anyone who ponders the realities of a heavenly home.

A Nanosecond to Eternity in the Twinkling of an Eye
by Donald Montgomery
Rated: Five Stars

A Nanosecond to Eternity in the Twinkling of an Eye is a delightful depiction of this author's belief of what he will find in HEAVEN. Donald Montgomery's detailed descriptions filled my mind's eye with the wonders that can only be a HEAVEN created by ALMIGHTY GOD. Donald Montgomery has not only used the written word, but also used many illustrations to convey the very essence of HEAVEN.

Donald Montgomery's book begins with an elderly man's last moment of life. Then we follow him as he travels into his everlasting life with an immortal body that will never age, never become ill, never feel pain, never feel sadness and will never cry.

This book allows one's imagination to run wild, filling the heart with dreams. How many times have I told people that in heaven, food will be delicious, but will not cause weight gain? I have imagined thinking of a loved one and they appear in the Twinkling of an Eye.

Read this book and dream your own dream of HEAVEN!

IS HE MESSIAH? Messianic Prophecies Revealed!

A Nanosecond to Eternity in the Twinkling of an Eye, by Donald L. Montgomery, is an interesting fictional account of the New Jerusalem based on Revelations. Don has written a book that would appeal to young people, as well as adults.

Putting aside a strictly literal interpretation of "Revelations," through his thoughtful imagination, Donald is yet able to reveal its inner meaning--the beauty, love, power and majesty of God. His writing opens a way for us to envision our bodies as renewed and capable of many powers we do not possess on earth, but may wish for.

Traveling with his angel, Thomas, and exploring his new life, while awaiting the opening of the "Book of Life" wherein he will have his life review before the throne of God, Bob Tyler begins to understand the wisdom, power and unconditional love that God has for all mankind, giving each a final chance for "heaven" for all eternity.

Read to the end to find out what happens to Bob Tyler and his Guardian Angel, Thomas, the earth and all its inhabitants. This is a beautiful account of Heaven."
