Good insight regarding the book and movie "Heaven is for Real"!

I received several comments from people about their concerns regarding the best selling "Christian" book and newly released movie - Heaven is for Real.

One very good article was sent to me by Amy at Al's Voice. The article is by Nate Akin and can be found here.

You can also see a video from David Platt here and from John MacArthur here.

I think Nate Akin is spot on when he qutoes a passage from the Bible that speaks directly to the problem with this emphasis on the little boys alleged experience. When it is suggested that someone coming back form the dead might convince others to beleive and be saved, God's word speaks plainly about the suficiency and necessity of the scriptures to bing new life -

Luke 16:³⁰ And he said, ‘No, father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’ ³¹ But he said to him, ‘If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.’”
