Many people spend more time planning a trip to Europe than they do preparing for their eternal homes. We are bombarded with suggestions concerning what awaits us when we cross the line from life to death. Is it as Betty Eadie claims, an eternal existence of peaceful and loving acceptance? Or could it be as Shirley MacLaine insists, simply reincarnation - a transfer from one body to another? We need not play this guessing game, wondering what will greet us on the other side - the Bible tells us that we can know for sure. For some, it will be a beautiful existence of eternal bliss; for others, an everlasting experience of pain and torment. And there will ever be a great gulf fixed between the two. The only question that remains is . . .which side will you be on?In One Minute After You Die Dr. Lutzer clearly enunciates what the Bible has to say about the life beyond. With biblical descriptions of the splendor of heaven and the horrors of hell, he authoritatively dispels fears for those who have placed their trust in Jesus Christ and presents the dread necessity for those who have yet to believe. Many who read it will be comforted; others will be disturbed; and everyone will be instructed. Each day is one step closer to eternity. Are you ready?
