Preface
I am a firm believer in the pre-tribulation resurrection of the church. I am also fully aware that there are other opinions on this subject. My intent is to entertain you and show you a glimpse of Heaven from a unique perspective. I wanted to show you a glimpse of eternity from the point of view of a man that was transfigured to serve our Lord Jesus. This is not a scholarly dissertation on the subject of the end times. So please enjoy it for what it is – a work of fiction – based on the prophetic truth written within the pages of the living Word of God, the Bible.
We who have accepted Christ as our Lord and Savior will all serve Him in Heaven as we have here on Earth. Fortunately, the service we perform in Heaven will be performed in perfect transfigured bodies with perfect transfigured minds. Our old frailties and infirmities of both body and mind will no longer exist. We will be tireless willing servants to our Lord in the honored position of His Saints. As the Saints of God, we will still have free will, but will never use that free will to rebel against or turn our backs on our precious Lord.
The perfect revelry and joy of Heaven awaits us, and I pray that this glimpse of that amazing and wonderful eternal life will bless you and entertain you.
Enjoy my book.
Acknowledgements
I first want to thank my pastor, Pastor Delmar James, for inspiring my book. Delmar conducted a Bible study for several Wednesday nights, and through that study, I learned more about the end times and then did a bunch of research of my own. This book is the result of that Bible study, my research and my own imagination, reconciled with the written inspired truth within God’s Holy Word, the Bible.
I would also like to thank my friend Claire Kimmel for proofreading my book and providing corrections to improve my manuscript. Her generous gift of time and editorial talent are greatly appreciated.
I would also like to thank Jeff Pack at The Gideons International for providing permission for my use of the ministry’s name within my book. I love The Gideons International and I love serving God as an active member of their outstanding ministry.
Most importantly, I’d like to thank God for his precious Word, the Bible: God’s inspired, inerrant, infallible revelation to us. Without the Bible we would not know the vast love and compassion that God showed us by giving the gift of his precious son Jesus to die for our sins, so that we could have eternal life and the precious gift of a permanent relationship with the Creator, Master and Sustainer of the Universe…our Almighty God.
