Summary: Heaven: Encounters of the God Kind
Review: A wonderful true story of Jessie's trip to Heaven where Abraham told him he had an appointment with God. There he meets up with several Bible Disciples and witness them teaching even in heaven. His awesome visit with the most powerful God to the throne room is so discriptive and until I read this book and listened to the tapes and the video I did not understand just how powerful Our Heavenly Father is. It has just given me an all over new look about Our Father and Jesus, a whole new concept. Jessie met Jesus and got a message from Him to tell everyone...but that is for you to read the book and find out the message. Jessie tells this trip to The Most Holy God so that everyone can understand what heaven is like and most importantly Jesus and His Father. Do not miss this one it is, for lack of a better word, "Awesome".

Summary: Great book,
Review: Dr. Duplantis is a great author and he proved it in this book. God has enlightened him to tell us of his glorius city through Dr. Duplantis and he has done so very well.

Summary: A close-up and personal look at heaven.
Review: Get your questions on what heaven is like answered in this book. This is Jesse's personal revelation of an actual trip that he had when called to heaven to recieve a personal message from Jesus. Learn about Jesse's personal quest for God and what God has done for and through Jesse. My wife does not normally read but she sat down and read this book in an afternoon. Ever since then this book has been making the rounds through all of our friends and neighbors hands. Don't miss reading this book - it can electrify you in your walk with God!!!

Summary: If I could have given zero stars, I would have.
Review: However, the lowest option was one. :o) My friend let me borrow this book because she thought it sounded weird (someone else had recommended it to her). So I read it myself. I would have to agree with her simple commentary. The book is weird. More precisely, it is chock full of false teachings. I pray that anyone that reads this book studies the Bible for themself and reads what the Bible has to say about heaven, not what some man tells us about his "trip" to heaven (was it a trip or was he trippin'?) Excuse the pun. Seriously though, I pray that Mr. Duplantis, all that work for him, and all that have read his books and/or watched his programs realize that this is false teaching. Research things for yourself! (...)

Summary: I was enthralled and could not stop reading.
Review: I am not a novel reader I mostly stick to periodicals and the Bible, maybe articles, but that is it. I picked this book up and read it in two sittings, which is major for me. Some of the writer's experiences correspond to my own and it was wonderful to be reminded of God's presence. I am recommending this to all my friends, I think it would make wonderful Christmas gifts for Christians. Something that will uplift a spirit that might be in a dry place. This book illuminates the power that is everpresent. At one time or another we all need a reminder of who He is.

Summary: When the roll is called up yonder-I'll be reading THIS!
Review: I can't say enough about Dr. Duplantis and his comedic talents. Mark Twain, Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor, Bill Hicks and David Cross have nothing on Dr. Duplantis. This book may well be some of the best, knee slappin' fictional prose ever written. I cannot recommend this book enough.

It's a rollercoaster ride through heaven you'll want to relive again and again! First, Jesse takes you up the mountain with the King of Kings (he somewhere between 5'11" and 6'1" with brownish hair) and you can feel your stomach do cartwheels when Jesse meets Father Abraham. AMAZING! It's like you're right there with Jesse, right before he was literally taken right up from Room 105 in the Best Western in Arkansas to heaven's gate!One minute you're wondering if it can get any better--and BOOM!-- Jesse meets Paul and other Biblical superstars.

I only wish he would have made that picnic with the family who died in a car wreck, before the Almighty called him for His appointment. I bet the dead family packed a delicious lunch, I guess we'll never really know.

Dr. Duplantis will have you feeling the joy of the Lord in your belly when you read about the copper-coated fruit he ate in order to meet God. You'll giggle with holy delight as Jesse describes walking around heaven and fellowshipping with at Paul's place with Paul, who still asks about his gospel. Did I mention Jesse's eternal home in heaven is filled with Queen Anne furniture? You'll be lol'ing till Jesus returns!

Dr. Duplantis has truly outdone himself with this humorous collection of encounters of the God kind. By the end of the book, you'll be begging for more as you have a close encounter of the laffin' kind!

Summary: Robe of Righteousness
Review: I have listened to Jesse Duplantis for many years through the Kenneth Copeland Ministries and I feel that he is a true man of God. God has used him mightily in a more humorous and light vein of preaching the word of God throughout the years. His account of heaven has been very enlightening. Heaven is truly beautiful for sure. He also mentions names and I can understand things about David and Paul that make me feel that it is truly "going home". God knows our heart but also knows that as humans we are disobedient and he is merciful. The message that Jesse got from God is to tell us that Jesus is coming shows us that he truly loves us and doesn't want to lose any of us. I am buying a second book to loan out as I want to keep one for my own personal reminder from time to time. (Which may be shorter than we think.)

Summary: Such Comfort and Peace
Review: I ran across this excellent book within days of the unexpectd passing of my wonderful father. Reading Dr.Duplantis' explanation on his experience of his journey to heaven gave my grieving soul such comfort and peace. The book is written in such magnificent and vivid detail, that I can just see Papa "Walkin' 'Round Heaven All Day!" Thank you Lord for putting this comforting tool in my path.

Summary: A Visualization of Heaven
Review: I read this book one week after my husband and sole mate of 24 years died. Since my husband was a Christian here on earth, I can now tell people with certainty that he is alive in heaven. This book has helped me visualize where my husband is now and I know I will see my husband again. All the information is based on the scripture. This book puts all the information in the Bible into one book which easy to read and understand. It will give you a great understanding of heaven and the importance of the second coming of Christ.
