"Here and Hereafter," originally written by Uriah Smith in 1873, deals with whether or not the dead are conscious, the soul is immortal, and the wicked will be eternally tortured. In "Here and Hereafter," Uriah Smith provides comprehensive coverage of the disputes over these teachings; almost every relevant text is brought to bear on the controversies at issue. "Here and Hereafter" deals solely with Biblical interpretation on the doctrines concerning the state of the dead. Using Scripture alone, Uriah Smith decisively destroys the doctrines of the immortality of the soul and eternal torment. All people on either side of the dispute, whether they agree or deny that people have that die go to heaven, hell, or purgatory upon death, will find "Here and Hereafter" spiritually profitable to read.

What happens after death? What is the meaning of life? If you have ever wrestled with these questions, or experienced answers, you will want to read this book. When someone we care for dies, we have the fantastic opportunity to experience a glimpse of eternity intertwined with present reality. We stand naked before the unknown, vulnerable-unhindered by usual earth time restrictions and preconceived borders of what is possible and we are open to new experiences, new truths. When ordinary earth time merges with infinity, mortality and eternity come together, the mystery of life deepens and sometimes we can perceive and respond to a reality beyond our usual capacities. Even if it is for only a nanosecond, profound changes can occur which last our entire lives. Our consciousness expands permanently. We are forever more aware of the marvelous complexities and interfacing of life and afterlife-the eternity connection-and open to perceiving its truths in everyday life. Here and Hereafter is a book of stories about life-endings-death; it is also a memoir. The stories are based on real life and death problems- illness, accidents, errors in judgment, suicide, alcoholism, assassination, old age. The characters in the stories are real people in various roles and stages of life- baby, child, teenager, college student, wife, husband, grandparent, father, mother, national leader, community leader, teacher, minister, patriarch, poet or politician-and yes, even a dog. Each story stands on its own but like life, the sum is greater than its parts. This book is also about spiritual legacy. What is the spiritual legacy you were given? What about it have you embraced? Enhanced? Discarded? How will you approach your own life-ending? What story can you pass on to others?
Excerpt from Life-Death-Hereafter: A Collection of Writings of Biblical Scholars, Vindicating God's Character, Plan and Works, and the Ransom-Sacrifice and Power of Jesus Christ Through the Holy Spirit to Minister Life and Immortality to the Faithful Death - hereafter has no apology to make for his gather ing and publishing under one cover some pen, products of able Biblical Scholars on timely themes; for the subject of this book is of compelling interest to all inquiring minds. Philosophers and scientists, theologians and publicists have given us wise and unwise treatises on the subjects set forth in this work. The too common mistake of trusting solely to human knowledge, tradi tion and hope has more or less marred the majority of the efforts to arrive at the Truth on these themes. On these as well as on all other matters of faith and practice, the only reliable source and rule of correct knowledge - true science - are found in the Holy Scriptures, which, we are happy to recognize, set forth their views on these matters in strict harmony with sound reason and human experience. Therefore the writings appear ing in this book pass by human theories and philosophies on life - death - hereafter as foundations for Faith's building, and ground their thoughts on the impregnable Rock of Holy Scriptures, and therefore offer the Divine Mind on the subjects presented herein. This accounts for the many and frequent references to the Scriptures found throughout this work. This book being a compilation of writings that have appeared at various times, and that were not originally intended to form a single treatise, of necessity there will be found here and there brief repetitions of thought which could not be omitted without marring the discussion of the various themes. Even this feature of the book has its advantages, as St. Paul assures us that his repeating the same things did not hurt him, but profits us; because repetition is the mother.of learning. Therefore we trust that the good reader will among other. Ways be blessed by this unavoidable feature of the book.
