We think about heaven too little and when we do we think in a wrong way. This book will help correct both errors. Randy Alcorn has taken 50 excerpts from Charles Spurgeon’s sermons which cover life after death, updated the language and then added his own comments. The result is delightful. It is both doctrinal and devotional. I love the warmth, depth and breadth of Spurgeon’s teaching. Rooted in the scriptures he speaks with a pastor’s heart. I also found Randy Alcorn’s comments helpful and enriching, complementing the quotations from Spurgeon. The chapter headings alone should whet your appetite: To enjoy Heaven is to enjoy God; Joining Heaven’s celebration now; Death has no power; Behold the face of God. Dozens of areas are covered. They explain the difference between the intermediate state (Heaven) and our final state (the New Heaven and New Earth). They emphasise that believers will be perfectly happy when we die but we will not be complete until we receive our resurrection bodies. They tackle the issues that trouble Christians such as whether we will recognise each other in the next life (yes) and how we can be completely happy knowing we have relatives and friends suffering in Hell. Randy Alcorn has done a great service in bringing Surgeon’s thoughts on the afterlife to a wider audience. Read this and be edified and uplifted.
