Love Beyond The Grave

To most people, man is a highly advanced organism whose life depends on the continuing performance of both his body and his mind. To some they are inseparable; when the body dies, so does the mind. But there are many people who see man as the sum of many equal but independent parts that have an existence quite different from and beyond the physical body. These people accept the existence of the spirit as the eternal factor of human life, believing that this part of man does not die when the body dies, but continues its existence beyond death. According to Dr. Hans Holzer, author of Love Beyond the Grave and many other books on the spiritual world, we already have a wealth of hard evidence regarding this next state of existence. Strong emotions are considered essential in order to make contact with someone from the spiritual world. We usually equate such emotions with anger or with crimes of passion. Dr. Holzer believes that love is also a strong enough emotion to enable people in the physical world to contact those of the spiritual, and in Love Beyond the Grave, he gives many examples of such relationships including "Sally and the Highwayman," "The Case of the Spurned Lover," "The Strange Case of the Psychic Callgirl," "The Ghostly Bedmate," and "The Affair Death Could Not Stop." This is an extraordinary collection of twenty-one cases of "love beyond the grave," all based on sound scholarship and hard facts, proving once again that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in our philosophy.

What really happens to human consciousness at death? How might love and immortality be related? What is purgatory and do most religions teach the concept of purgatory? What is spirituality? Is the essence of the mystery we call "God" the same for the Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jew, and Muslim? Is it more important what my religion teaches me to believe, or is it more important that my religion enables me to become more loving and compassionate? How might one practice a reverence for life by our food choices? How do we balance work and spirituality? How do we balance spirituality and social-justice work? In this collection of sermons and reflections, Floyd Vernon Chandler suggests that there are many valid spiritual paths to Enlightenment and Holiness. Understanding the mystery we call "God" is akin to the story of five blind men touching different parts of a huge elephant. Each man's description and understanding of the elephant will vary based upon the location of his touch. The importance of any religion is determined by how much our respective spiritual paths lead us to grow in love and compassion for one another and for all other forms of life on this planet. The sermon and reflections found in Beyond the Grave: Love and Immortality express a Universalist theology that all souls will eventually be reunited with the mystery we call "God." Inherent in this collection of writings is the belief that there is truth in all religions and that there are many valid spiritual paths. No religious dogma or ideology has a monopoly on truth.

Stone brings his unique blend of Bible knowledge, prophecy, and spiritual insight to the topic in this comprehensive look at the afterlife. He show what hell will be like for those who depart this life without a salvation experience, and discusses the location and purpose of Paradise, the temporary home for Christians who have died.

He had to save the world to redeem his sins. But the world had already ended. So he lurched along through his pointless corporeal existence, awaiting an overdue reunion with his perished family. Bereft of purpose in a man-made apocalypse, Noblé worked in the most suicidal profession, one known to expedite a longed-for reunion with his wife and daughter. They called it couriering, the simple act of escorting people, usually climate refugees escaping famine and drought, from one place to another. Desperate to leverage favor with the fates, he eschewed all material attachments and compensation for his deeds. As he dawdled over the years, playing at living while his mind was lost in the afterlife, a creeping and overwhelming feeling of failure to fulfill his destiny with his family took hold. The contagion of this intractable depression drove him toward suicide. On his way to die, he happens upon a benign, unremarkable young woman, who unknowingly holds the key to saving a once thought to be unstoppable global warming feedback loop. She possesses the one thing humanity needs to repent for its ancestors’ ecocide, and more important to Noblé, the one thing he needs to atone to get back to his family. His mind is mired in the afterlife with his loved ones, and the black hole pull of such a longing has him losing his earthly sanity more every minute. But fate, it seems, is not finished with him yet.
