Reddit mentions of Revealing Heaven: The Christian Case for Near-Death Experiences

I was raised as a fairly liberal Lutheran, so I don't know much about Calvinist Theology. However, what I do know is that there are still some sects of Christianity that push a deterministic view of Heaven and Hell. It's pretty detached from the center of Christian teachings, especially if you consider Agape love. I would like to assure you that Heaven is much more open than you might think.

I've been recommending a book I've come across on NDEs (Near Death Experiences) to every other Christian I've come across recently, and I must sound like an absolute broken record because of it. However I find it a great piece of faith based literature to anyone who thinks they're destined for Hell, or that Heaven is unreachable. Here's a link to the book if you're interested.

SPOILERS:

If you're not, here's a summary. While Reverend John W. Price initially discredited accounts of people seeing Heaven on the basis they didn't meld with mainstream Christian teachings, he eventually decided to open up about these accounts due to an experience he had with one of the soldiers under his care (he was an Army Chaplain for awhile). Since then he's heard over 200 accounts of the phenomena and come to several very progressive conclusions on the matter. I won't list them all here, but here's the most important ones that these accounts have led him to.

1. Regardless of Religious beliefs, kindhearted and good people are always allowed into Heaven. Several non-baptized people who've had NDEs have reported actually seeing and speaking with Jesus and God, who did not judge them harshly for this. This led him to conclude that, in a roundabout way, those who love and do good for their fellow man accept Jesus into their hearts. Thus bringing them salvation in Heaven.
   
2. The only people who experience Hell, are those who are detached from God through their own behavior. Thus people who are mean and unnecessarily cruel end up rejecting God through their actions, despite their beliefs about God.
