Over half of Americans believe in a literal heaven, in a literal hell. Most people who hold these beliefs are Christian and assume they are the age-old teachings of the Bible. Ehrman shows that eternal rewards and punishments are found nowhere in the Old Testament, and are not what Jesus or his disciples taught. He recounts the long history of the afterlife, ranging from The Epic of Gilgamesh up to the writings of Augustine, focusing especially on the teachings of Jesus and his early followers. Ehrman shows that competing views were intimately connected with the social, cultural, and historical worlds out of which they emerged. -- adapted from jacket

I saw Jesus on the cross, and all of heaven was motionless. I could see legions of angels just waiting near the cross. Then, as I looked upon the cross, I couldn't bear to look at what I was seeing, for it was extremely sad. The last time I saw Jesus, it was a picture of absolute splendor, majesty, and glory when He came forth from His Father. But now to look at Him was almost impossible, for He looked nothing like He did earlier ... Just then, my attention was taken back down into hell. Every demon was in a state of frenzy and hysteria. They were acting and behaving like wild beasts, animals. You could see some type of disgusting foam coming from their mouths. It was repulsive. They were all yelling "It's over! It's over!" You could see they were anticipating Jesus' arrival. Satan had this disturbed, distorted, indescribable look on his face as he had conquered all the universe. He looked like he knew he was finally able to affect God and that he wouldn't be able to recover.

The MacArthur Study Bible is perfect for serious study. No other study Bible does such a thorough job of explaining the historical context, unfolding the meaning of the text, and making it practical for your life.

This book is about Obedience and knowledge. I want each reader to know that Knowledge can be good or knowledge can be bad. The knowledge that Lucifer Recieved from the tree was bad, because it made him disobey God and lose his place with God.

From the National Book Award-winning and National Book Critics Circle Award-winning author of The Gnostic Gospels comes a dramatic interpretation of Satan and his role on the Christian tradition. "Arresting...brilliant...this book illuminates the angels with which we must wrestle to come to the truth of our bedeviling spritual problems." —The Boston Globe With magisterial learning and the elan of a born storyteller, Pagels turns Satan’s story into an audacious exploration of Christianity’s shadow side, in which the gospel of love gives way to irrational hatreds that continue to haunt Christians and non-Christians alike.
