Abstract:
Writing in the wake of a near-fatal stroke, theologian Anthony C. Thiselton addresses death and what comes next. This distinctive study of "the last things" comprehensively explores questions about individual death, the intermediate state, the return of Christ, the resurrection of the dead, hell, the final state of the redeemed, and more. --from publisher description
