Learn what its like in heaven and hell from Emanuel Swedenborg's conversations with angels and spirits as this eighteenth-century Christian mystic explains what happens when we die.

It is said that only two things are inevitable: death and taxes. But neither is absolutely true. Some people live in such a way that they avoid taxes altogether. And, for Christians who are alive when Jesus comes to Rapture His Church, death will be avoided as well. But for everyone else, the very thought of dying can rob them of joy in this life. Shakespeare wondered, “in that sleep of death what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil must give us pause….Ay, there’s the rub.” Christians should certainly have no such anxiety. Dr. David Reagan explores life’s ...

When you know who the Father is and what He says about what you are going through, you can pray from a place of confidence. You can stand strong, even when everything seems to be shaking around you. ...

Don’t you want to know where you will spend eternity? In Luke 7:36-50 we find the Son of God having dinner with a Pharisee named ...
