Description: Experience the Power and Glory of a Trip to Heaven! Heaven is a very real place. It has often been pictured as a place where everyone sits on fluffy clouds and plays a harp for eternity. According to the Word of God, however, this picture is far from the truth. So what is heaven really like? In this book, Jesse Duplantis shares several events that have happened to him in his relationship with God--events he calls close encounters of the God kind. One of these events is his trip to heaven in 1988. He tells of the wonderful things the Lord has in store for us, both in heaven and on earth. "I believe that if people could see the treasures that God has stored up for them in heaven, they wouldn't have such a hard time understanding God's will to prosper and heal them while they are on earth . . . . Anything that you can think of, anything you could want on earth has already been given to you there."
--Jesse Duplantis As you read this book, you will discover the depth of the compassion and love God has for you. Your faith will be strengthened and encouraged as Jesse reveals answers too many questions about this wonderful place: * What is Paradise? * Are there children in heaven? * Will I recognize family members? * Will I really have my own mansion there? * What is God's great Throne Room like? * Plus much more! It is God's desire that everyone spends eternity in heaven. So enjoy these close encounters of the God kind for yourself and join Jesse Duplantis in spreading the wonderful message that Jesus is coming again soon!

Review Summary: study your Bible |
Date: 2008-12-01 |
|

Details: Christianity is truly in a crisis. People use discnernment. Study your Bibles. It is sad that Christians have become so gullible, but I guess it is just part of being in the times we live (end time apostasy). People want a supernatural experience to believe in God or to know that they are saved. Seeking an experience can get you decieved. Put you faith in Jesus not an experience.
2Tim3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
How can David say that some of his psalms were not inspired by God? As was said in this book.
Get back to the basics of Christ and stop following these "prosperity" "name it and claim it" people
They preach "another gospel"
IF YOU ARE TRULY SEEKING TRUTH THEN THIS IS NOT THE BOOK FOR YOU!
If you are looking for a good, but sad laugh, then this would be an okay read.
I read the results of a survey that said that only 41% of people in the top denominations could actually be considered a "born again Christian". So it is no wonder why this type of stuff is abundant.
People get rid of your itching ears and desire the Truth.

Review Summary: Outstanding Story! |

Details: I read the book last year and I really enjoyed it. It was hard to believe, but my born again Spirit led me to truly believe this account of Jesse Duplantis. God took him on a 5 hour adventure of a life time, witnessing the living Christ preaching a firey message to millions of heavenly Saints. Along with God the Father, who Jesse said he could only see his feet.
If you want to be excited about going to heaven, I would encourage you to read this book.

Review Summary: I watched the DVD, and I'm getting this book! |

Details: I just watched the DVD... I was skeptical at first, but then God spoke to me, and softened my heart, and I ended up crying like a baby by the end.
My grandma experienced seeing angels before. She was dying of an untreatable disease, but an angel came in a form of little babies who were worshiping God and she saw them and was instantly healed. My grandma never read the Bible because she didn't know how to read, but she knew how to receive Jesus with a childlike heart!
Jesse shares his experience in rather childlike manner as well. I believe that what he saw was real because it made a lot of sense to me and it went alone with the Bible very well! I realized that fellowship is what's important! Through what Jessee shared, I only saw that people and angels living in Heaven constantly communicated with each other in a most lovable manner imaginable! They are filled with joy just for the fact that they're there in Heaven, and it's real, it's no joke!
People loose faith, and try to make things up to match things with science and such! So some start thinking that Heaven is symbolic, that it's not really real, etc, etc... But Heaven is real! And Jesus is real!
Some people forget that God created us in His image, and that He is real, that He's not some energy or simply light! God can be seen if allowed! He did appear to Moses, and He did take Elijah up to heaven on a chariot! Why don't we realize that it all actually happened, and God is the same always!
As I watched the DVDs, I felt presence of the Lord, and I felt closer to Jesus! I remembered how when I was a kid, my mom would always say, "nick, every time you do something bad and you don't repent, it hurts Jesus". As I grew up I stopped believing in that, but Jesse reminded me of it! Jesus actually does gets hurt every time his people go astray! Jesse reminds us that Jesus has feelings, and He loves people so much that every time there is a murder happening, or hateful words fall out of someone's mouth, Jesus cries!!
Also, we tend to think that everyone in heaven is so uptight, and serious and such, but it made a lot more sense when Jesse explained that David and Abraham were very nice and friendly! Even Jesus acted humble with him! Which is amazing! That only confirms that Jesus is truly a lamb! We can hurt Jesus, or we can love Jesus, and even though he is glorious and powerful, he is in fact a lamb, a Son of God who longs for a friendship with his people, and that's us!
We often pray, "Jesus make me happy", when in reality all we have to do is simply have a relationship with Him! That's the message I got from Jesse!
Another message I got from his, is that JESUS IS COMING SOON!
To all the people who posted negative responses to this book, I say, JESUS IS COMING SOON, get your blind folds off of your eyes, stop judging people, learn to love, clean up your act, and get yourself ready for the Kind of Kings is coming! |

Review Summary: Must really Be True !! |
Date: 2007-03-26 |

Details: I read the book and was blown away by the descriptions of things in heaven. He did this in 1988 and wrote the book. In the Book he talks about walking on a 100% pure gold sidewalk in heaven and being able to see through it as it was translucent. Scientist didn't/couldn't make 100 percent pure gold until the mid 90's and guess what. ONLY 100 percent pure gold can be seen through like mirror sunglasses, just like the book said.. How could he have known this.. unless it was true. many other parts of the book touched my spirit.. It's a must read for A TRUE Beliver. |
