CHAPTER 1
The God of All Nations
“CODE BLUE! CODE BLUE!” yelled the nurse over the intercom. For an entire week, Santosh Acharjee had been fighting for his life. He realized he was dying. He had just given his wife, son, and daughter-in-law his final blessings when he went into cardiac arrest. The medical staff rushed into action to get his heart going again, but their efforts failed. Santosh clinically died.*
I always thought that once you die, your life is finished. That’s it. But when I died, I discovered your life isn’t over, there’s another life after that. I realized, I’m not dead; I can analyze, interpret. I was curious and wondering as I saw a bright Light coming toward me…
About Imagine Heaven
For decades, Burke has been studying accounts of survivors brought back from near death who lived to tell of both heavenly and hellish experiences. While not every detail of individual NDEs correlate with Scripture, Burke shows how the common experiences shared by thousands of survivors—including doctors, college professors, bank presidents, people of all ages and cultures, and even blind people–point to the exhilarating picture of Heaven promised in the Bible.
This thrilling journey into the afterlife will make you feel like you’ve been there. It will forever change the way you view the life to come and the way you live your life today. You’ll discover Heaven is even more amazing than you’ve ever imagined.
