This book is at once challenging and inspiring. It explores and contrasts the biblical concepts of "heaven," "salvation," "election," "the kingdom of God," and other key doctrines with the popular Christian beliefs on these issues, and offers a novel and surprisingly convincing doctrinal perspective. More importantly, it provides detailed Scripture references that enable the reader to form an intelligent and independently verified understanding of whether, what and why they believe. It also critically examines the question of "Why Jesus?" outside of its modern Christian context. Regardless of your religion, theology, or spiritual perspective, the reader is guaranteed to experience a major paradigm shift.
