Preface
The purpose of this booklet is to look in some depth at the important issues surrounding death. In Part 1 I will look at questions such as: does it matter what we believe anyway, why do we avoid talking about it, can we confidently assume that there is life after death? In Part 2 I will present the Christian view of death and what lies beyond. I won’t avoid the difficult question of judgement and the possibility of missing out on all that God has planned for his people, issues that the New Testament speaks so plainly and consistently about. However, for those who are searching for a real relationship with the living God, I have a glorious message of hope and certainty. You don’t have to go through life with any doubt about the future. On the contrary, if you are willing to accept all that God offers, on his terms, you will be able to look forward with certainty to an endless future in which you will experience all that God, in his infinite love and wisdom, has planned for you. You will also find it a hope that will transform your goals and values and understanding of every part of this present life. My prayer is that you will be greatly blessed as you make the journey.
