Publisher's Description

Are there really mansions in heaven? In John 14:2-3 Jesus said, "In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also"? What specifically was Jesus referring to in this passage? In answering these questions, this book not only offers the proper context of John Chapter 14, but it does so based on the context of the entire gospel of John. Undoubtedly, the concept of mansions in heaven is one of the long-held beliefs of the church. Promoted by teachings and songs, it has become the eternal hope of many believers. However, I am certain that through reading this book, what has been traditionally believed and accepted will be replaced with a message that is far more substantial. One that is established on the Father's original purpose for humanity.
