Great Book for Summarizing Evidence Supporting Christian Faith

In One Thing You Can't Do in Heaven, evangelist Mark Cahill shared a powerful question for helping lead nonbelievers to the Holy Spirit: "What do you think will happen to you when you die?" In One Heartbeat Away: Your Journey into Eternity, Mr. Cahill describes the most often cited evidence in favor of the Christian answer to that question. For someone who doesn't know the Bible and wants to learn more, this book is a good starting point for understanding the evidence in favor of Christianity. Mr. Cahill also does a good job of referencing his sources so that those who want to study the points in more detail will know where to go next. The book is short and accessible: The format is similar to what having a personal conversation with Mr. Cahill might be like. The book opens with arguments in favor of Intelligent Design, the spiritual counter to various scientific theories such as Darwinism. He next turns his attention to evidence in favor of the Bible, including archeology and prophesies that have proven to be accurate. In chapter four, he describes experiences that people recall who have been resuscitated while dying. While most of us have heard of the tunnel of light and beings dressed in white that receive us in a friendly place, Mr. Cahill also shares stories of people who have experienced great heat, flames, and the smell of burning sulfur. Next, the book examines the Ten Commandments and helps readers to understand how far we all come in following those Godly rules. You'll come away with a strong sense that no matter how hard we try we cannot save ourselves from sin. From there, the book takes a brief look at comparative religions to show that only Christianity provides a way out of being judged for our sins. Using many conversations with nonbelievers and seekers after the Truth, Mr. Cahill recounts how we can repent, accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and become new beings through Christ. He also explains how we need to be witnesses for our faith. I also found the book to be a good refresher on how to witness, something that Mr. Cahill does extremely well. Two parts of the book really resonated with me: The stories about those who experienced hell while dying and his points about the terrible loss that occurs every time that a soul is lost to God. Unless you are a well-informed Christian, you'll probably finds that it makes sense to read One Heartbeat Away before One Thing You Can't Do in Heaven. I highly recommend both books. May God bless you, your family, and all you do, Mr. Cahill!

The plain truth

Once again, Mark Cahill tells us in plain English what the Bible says about life and death in a most honest and compelling way. When you finish this 'very easy to read and follow' book you have no doubt about your journey into Eternity. Thanks Mark you really bless me Sandi Bonavita - Australia

A simple walk through life's biggest questions

Give this book to a person who is seeking truth about life's greatest questions. Is there evidence for Darwinian Evolution or Creation? Is there evidence for the existence of God? If so, can we know Him? If all the religions of the world conflict on their beliefs, which one is true, if any? Which holy book is based on truth and full of evidence? Is there a Law standard in which we will be judged by? What is the Law? How do I compare against it? What will happen to me if I don't measure up to it? If I do not measure up to it, is there a way to find mercy? Not only can you give this book to anyone seeking truth, but you should buy it so you can more effectively share the truth with others in conversation. Mark Cahill is very good in keeping the book flowing with personal stories, wise quotes, and truth that will make you look at life different forever.

Honestly and Factually proves Christianity and God are real.

I'm less than half way through this book, but as a younger born-again Christian, this book has really helped explain things for me. Each chapter challenges the things/topics that are against God such as evolutionism, Muslims, atheists, etc. The 2nd chapter disproves evolution using amazing facts and even has quotes from famous Evolutionist scholars who themselves said there was no way of a "big bang" to happen. I'd definitely have to recommend Chapter 3, entitled " The Red Silver Dollar," it shows you historically, statistically, and factually, how there HAS to be a God/creator. Great stuff. Check this out if your a new believer, or if you are still unsure.

Other than the Bible, this is the best book I have ever read

Have you ever wished you could explain the need for salvation and what it means to be saved? Mark Cahill does this in an fascinating easy to read book. I love it!
