Surprisingly, after all the searchings, devisings and experimentation, no one, NO ONE, has ever returned to tell us what its like after death.

This little volume is dedicated to quoting the Sacred Scriptures on this topic. Not one word of mans ideas, philosophies or dogma only what God says no more. As you peruse this booklet and become aware of how much God knows about after death experience, my prayer is that you will receive comfort and assurance in a Living God, for whom death is no problem.
