- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5“Death is a conjunction followed by a destination,” according to Tony Evans, chaplain of the Dallas Mavericks and senior pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship. In his short work, Eternity: Understanding Life After Death, Evans discusses the failings of the human concept of time, scriptural evidence of what eternity will look like, as well as what we will do to pass the never-ending time.This short publication, more like a single sermon in print form, is organized by points Evans argues as definitive, such as that “heaven is a particular place,” not, in fact, some ethereal, cloud-dotted patch of sky and that “[it] is a place of perfect knowledge” in which all inhabitants will be akin to Bradley Cooper’s character in Limitless, hindered by neither mental laziness or lack of ability to understand any concept. He also describes, based on biblical evidence, different organizations and sects within the new Jerusalem and the manner of fulfilling work that all will be doing, in contrast with the widely-presented vision of heaven as a place of leisure, absent work or goals.Evans’ book is simple and clear and could prove a good tool for youth pastors to refer teens to. I, however, found it unoriginal and limited in both its scope and intended audience. Evans others non-Christians throughout and addresses men directly, even referring colloquially to women as “girl(s)” in one anecdote. His ultimate goal for Eternity: Understanding Life After Death is to help readers bring others to Christ but his technique is a bit too old school fire and brimstone for my tastes. *- I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Eternity: Understanding Life After Death by Tony Evans is a short, although very informative book based on biblical scripture on what we have to look forward to after death. Depending on rather we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior or not. I've found myself drawn to so many of these type books lately, after sitting by Mother's bedside, and watching her suffer, as she was dying from cancer.One of my favorite quotes from this book is..."we are in the land of the dying on our way to the living" page 7I love that and it is so true!Pastor Tony Evans has used biblical scripture to describe both Heaven and hell. He also explains how to know that you are on your way to Heaven. This is a quick read and easy to understand, for anyone.This is something we can't afford to get wrong, eternity is a long time! I have both family and friends that believe I am nuts for my believes. But if I am wrong about God, I have only wasted my life, if the non-believers are wrong they have wasted ETERNITY! It is each person's right to choose for themselves their path and where they want to spend eternity.Another quote from this book that I loved regarding this topic says..."Forever is too long to miss Christ. Eternity is a long time to suffer torment and the pain of regret. For Christians, this life is the only hell they will ever know. But for non-Christians, this life is the only Heaven they will ever know." page 12Gives you something to think about doesn't it?PLEASE I ask all of my family, friends, and even people I don't know, give this some thought on where and how you want to spend eternity.I highly recommend this book to everyone, for like it or not, we all are going to spend eternity somewhere. It is up to each of us to decide where that will be.I received a FREE copy from Moody Publishers in exchange for honest review on this book
