Increasingly we hear stories from those who claim that they have spoken with the dead and have learned that bliss awaits everyone who "arrives on the other side." At death's door, some people claim to see visions, deceased relatives, or a flash of light.

This eBooklet attempts to answer some basic questions: What should be our attitude toward death? Can we accept the experience of others as a valid basis for anticipating what will await us when we die? Is there an intermediate state prior to heaven or hell?

Dr. Lutzer takes the data of both the Old and the New Testament to show that only through God's revelation can we be sure what awaits those who die. For many people, death is but a doorway into the glories of heaven; for others, it will be a frightening disappointment.
