Introduction

Biographical sketch of Marietta Davis, and history of vision and life.

1 The Angel of Peace

The beginning of the vision is experienced as an angel appears to Marietta and compels her out of the

physical into the spiritual .

2 Death’s Gateway

Marietta is shown crowds of people in throes of death, and then permitted to see the immortal nature of

the people. She is shown the gateway of death—the transition state between earth and eternity.

3 Welcome in Heaven

The angel takes Marietta to the City of Peace, where she is welcomed into heaven.

4 First Lessons and Warnings

Important lessons Marietta is taught so that she may return to earth loaded with experiences and truths to

teach others.

5 The Boy Who Was Raised in Heaven

Marietta meets two children who died as infants and were raised in heaven. She discovered that each child

who dies as an infant is “assigned” an angel who continues to nourish the child’s mind and spirit in heaven.

(This chapter links to Appendix B.)

6 Heaven’s Architecture

Marietta is given a tour of heaven’s landscape and architecture.

7 Conflicts in Hell

The vision changes, and Marietta finds herself falling into the dark abyss of hell.

8 Despair of the Lost

The horrors of hell are revealed in the vision.

9 The Intellectual, the False Teacher, and the Heartless Worshipers

The vision exposes the plight of those in hell who fall into one of these three categories.

10 Escape From Hell and Lessons Learned

The angel transports Marietta back to heaven and reiterates the lessons about hell that she must also tell to

others when she returns to earth.

11 The Music of Heaven and the Separation

The angel teaches Marietta why God ordained that spirits of similar nature should be kept together in the

same place, with good and evil kept apart.

12 Infant Instruction—the Lost Man

Through several dramatizations, Marietta is shown how infants who die on earth are entrusted to the

angels who nurture them so that the spiritual understanding of the children will increase and the love in

them will be released.

13 The Bethlehem Story

The vision portrays the glory of the birth of Christ.

14 The Justice-Mercy Conflict

Marietta experiences the dilemma of those who are dying without hope because of the power and

authority of a mighty being named Justice. Then she meets the angel of Mercy, who reveals to her the

efficacy of the sacrifice of Jesus to bring mercy and hope to those doomed by Justice.

15 The Judas Betrayal

Mariette witnesses the betrayal of Judas and sees how the infants in heaven are taught the lessons of

Judas’ betrayal and what it meant to Jesus.

16 Jesus the Ransom Must Suffer

The vision continues with the consequences of Judas’s betrayal and the sins of mankind as Jesus is shown

to Marietta as the “Ransom” for sin.

17 Apollyon

The demonic presence of Apollyon appears to clamor for the crucifixion of Jesus. Justice and Mercy

discuss his threats, and Marietta is shown the great struggle of the crucifixion and how Justice and Mercy

together offer Jesus as a ransom to all.

18 The Dream of Pilate’s Wife

The dream of Pilate’s wife is shown, and Marietta hears the dialogue the angels had with her.

19 The Way of the Cross

Jesus walks the path to the cross.

20 The Thirty Pieces of Silver

Judas begs the Sanhedrin to accept the return the thirty pieces of silver and flings them down, exclaiming,

“It’s the price of my Lord. It has cost me my peace forever!” Marietta is shown the meaning of his

betrayal, and it is revealed that he had the same depraved and unholy desires as the rest of mankind. The

Chief Guardian implores the angels to teach the children the lessons, and the children respond with a

commitment to go out as servants of goodness, wherever the Lord directs them. 

21 Calvary

The events of Calvary are shown from heaven’s perspective.

22 Death Defeated

Jesus defeats Satan and Apollyon and slumbers in victory.

23 He Is Risen!

Justice and Mercy show Marietta the lessons of the resurrection.

24 The Lost Man Rescued

Marietta witnesses the application of the full work of Christ to the life of a lost man dying in his sins.

25 Return to Earth

The angels, the children, and the inhabitants of heaven gather around Marietta and sing a hymn. Then she

stands before Jesus, who administers Communion to her. Placing an olive branch in her hand, He instructs

the angel guide to escort her back to earth.
