 | A factual and objective look at DEATH Feb 11, 2007 |
Regardless of your belief system, you will experience death. We have very few records from "behind the curtain". Most records are by those who didn't die. Christianity is the only religious system that deals with the subject reasonably. Erwin Lutzer's book is very complete and honestly looks at what we know and on not know. He finally rests his treatise on Bible.
It has helped me talk with others dealing with the reality we all face many times over. The reality of life is only realized as we face the reality of Death. I would wish it were in audio format. It is a helpful study: Ignorance and superstition, humor or fantacy, are no comfort. Read the book. It will help you and "yours" - forever. |

The moron BaylourBear says that a Calvinistic worldview is unbiblical.
I think he's an idiot.
This book and Dr. Lutzer's view are solid and as Biblical as they come. |

I am a fan of Lutzer's books for I find them to hit the nail going straight to the point, short yet full of teaching and of ease to read. Yet, I was a bit disappointed with this one.
`One minute after you die' presents the classic view of the after-life from the Christian perspective: its's heaven or hell...no midway, no reincarnation, no sleep, no chance for redemption after death. The view is explained without (yet maybe needed) complications, and is supported by decent amount of scripture referencing. It also attempt to describe what to expect to find in these respective destinations.
Unfortunately, this book barely skims over the subject and is intended for the beginners in faith. It doesn't expand on important ideas where is needed, and you feel that you haven't learned anything new.
This book is more like a `quick guide to the after-life'. Buy it if you are new to the faith and need to get grounded in the basics of what lies ahead after death. For the rest, there is definitely much better works out there to look for (I know I am).
