Reincarnation, Oblivion or Heaven?

What is death? Why do we die? and what happens after we die? Over the centuries, philosophers and theologians of the worlds religions have offered answers to the dilemma of death, yet this subject is rarely given the detailed attention it deserves in the contemporary Christian church. As Christians, how does our view of death impact the communication of the gospel in todays pluralistic societies?In this study, Dr Bobby Bose not only develops a solid biblical theology of death, he also reviews the teachings of contemporary and historical Christian theologians around the world, and examines the state-after-death beliefs of Hindus, Muslims and Secular Humanists. The author shows that state-after- death was a central component of conversation in the early church, and is also a major component of Gods mission to rescue humanity. As the East converges with the West, it is vital that Christians develop a missiological approach to state-after-death that will encourage positive engagement with people of other faiths and beliefs.
