What do you guys think about the book 90 Minutes in Heaven. It’s about a guy that gets into an automobile accident and dies. He goes to heaven for 90 minutes and then returns to earth to tell about it.
 
Hi,

It certainly makes for compelling reading and the video clip I saw gets one’s attention. I have no doubt that God changed the man’s life with what he saw in his mind. But he did not see heaven as it is. No one can get a 90-minute glimpse of heaven and then return and talk about it. No----way !

To even think this is possible is naive in the extreme. One might as well think that one can hold the ocean in a thimble for ninety minutes. Heaven is to know God as He knows us. It is to be united to the infinite Being who created and redeemed us. One simply cannot reach total union with God and ever, ever be as one was before.

“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man, the things that God has prepared for those who love him.” 1 Cor. 2:9
