re: Colton Burpo - 4 yrs old now 11, had a NDE in which he claims to have met Jesus. "Heaven is for Real" written by parents. An Amazon reviewer says:
"Posted on Mar. 23, 2011 10:42 AM PDT Marie Na says: I've enjoyed Pastor Matt's comment that is highly intellectual and worth reading, while I haven't finished the book yet. But I am already anxious to say something here. That is, if you are not a Chistian, this book wouldn't be fun to read because it says you have to have Jesus in heart to go to heaven. I lost my father recently and have been reading quite a few books to try to know more about afterlife. If he's not in heaven now - he wasn't a Christian, where is he? How does Christianity explain this? Is it an exclusive club? Is heaven segregated? When openly declared like that, I am only appalled and wonder why this book became a bestseller... ...good question!
