A straightforward theology of heaven.

From the Preface:

"This little book, upon a subject that is very dear to me, has been carefully revised, and is sent forth in the hope that it may give comfort and edification to many; that the weak may be strengthened, the sorrowing consoled, and the despondent encouraged to look with increased faith to that fairest of fair cities in the “Better Land,” which is the home of the Redeemer and the redeemed.

Many books have been published in this country in my name, but none of them with authority, and the only motive inspiring this small volume is that souls may be helped. - D. L. MOODY"

    "Beyond these chilling winds and gloomy skies, Beyond the death's cloudy portal, There is a land where beauty never dies- Where love becomes immortal."

  • Laurel Hicks

    This encouraging book could as well be entitled Heaven and How to Get There.

  • Paul Hoffman

    Lisa and I prefer the classic Christian writers because the stick to the Bible and not self help junk and ...isms.

    From Hoopla: "Perhaps the greatest American evangelist of the nineteenth century, Dwight L. Moody inspired millions with his sermons. Although a century and a half separates us from his impassioned explications of the Bible, Moody's ardor rings with overtones of today's fundamentalist Christianity and can offer critical clues to understanding the orthodox religious outlook still dramatically influencing our culture in the twenty-first century. Moody explains why Christians believe that the Bible is invariably correct ("None of the other religious volumes, like the Koran, that claim a divine origin, agree with common sense."); who resides in heaven ("The inhabitants of Heaven will be select."); that they are set apart from the larger culture ("We must go against the current of this world."); and more."

    I always benefited from reading D L Moody's books and this is certainly one of them. However, this book(let), looked very comprehensive to me because of my prior study of a series of sermons on Heaven by several preachers. , this booklet is kind of a very comprehensive.

    The subject of heaven itself is so glorious and incomprehensible except for that is revealed to us in the scripture, the study is always rewarding. To me this book served like a refresher of what I had studied earlier.

    The one thing that grabbed my attention was this that says, there would be 3 surprises in heaven. 1. The people we thought wouldn't be there get there, 2. The people who we thought would be there don't get there and 3. Finding ourselves in heaven.

  • Andy Febrico Bintoro

    Its not a theologically strong book, more like an introduction and this book written for ordinary people to understand more about this topic.

    The Country of the Blessed

    D L Moody was a great evangelist and teacher in the 1800's. He is the author of many Christian books that have had, and continues to have, influence on the lives of Christians. Many young people have entered on Christian service through the Moody Bible Institute.

  • Aaron

    I thought this was an excellent book. It was written 132 years ago, but it's message is timeless.

  • Dan

    An amazing book that challenges the Christian to live and evangelize as if Heaven is his true home...because it is. Most edifying.

  • Mathias Seiwert

    Insightful and easy to read little book that is helping me to focus more on all that the LORD promises for us in the next life.
