What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

This important new book by Daniel Juster presents a vital correction to new trends that weaken the biblical teaching on eternal judgment. It also gives a clear biblical presentation of the destiny of the believers in the age to come. This excellent book strengthens our hope in eternity as it deals with some very important scripture texts. I strongly recommend it.

Here is a book on a topic that is sorely needed in our day. So it is with joy I commend this work to you, even though I may still have some differences on some smaller points of exegesis. The central message of this work, however, is desperately needed; for all too many have handled (or even failed to handle) many of these texts in such a careless way that reverses the straightforward meaning of these scriptures. Thank you, Daniel, for calling our attention once again back to the Word of God.

What happens to us after we die? It’s a question that’s often on the minds of people, but not so often talked about. In this concise volume, Dan Juster has captured the range of biblical teaching on heaven, hell, and the afterlife without reducing that teaching into narrow dogma. Dan provides an accessible resource for understanding and discussing these issues that is always engaging and sometimes surprising as well.
