The first half of the book was very riveting, but I felt very uncomfortable while reading the second half of the book. Many things shared were confirmed to my LDS beliefs, but I have not finished the last third and set it down a week ago.

I appreciated that this book broadened my perspective on the last days, angels interactions with us, and agency.

I think the reader needs to keep in mind that this is not scripture, simply one man's visions and his experiences for himself to profit by. Some of it is isn't literal. Do I believe he had these visions? Yes, it's very sincerely and frankly written. I never felt uneasy or uncomfortable reading it.

It was fascinating and gave me a lot to ponder. It gave me hope and assurance. I have a stronger desire to be more prepared for the last days.

Great book with a lot of insight. Author also makes it very clear that information he provides is based on personal revelation from the Lord meant to teach himself, and not church wide revelation. He also makes it clear that many things in his visions are probably symbolic. I'm so glad he shared his experiences. I would definitely recommend this book.

David B. Haight told the whole membership of the church about his visitation of Christ appearing to him. He said it in a general conference talk. It was not “wicked” or unrighteous for him to relay that message.

Obviously it’s ok to talk about these things when God says it’s ok.

This book has so much to it. It was very enlightening. Read the afterword at the end of the book and he says some things in the book are literal and some things are metaphorical. You have to get your revelation on what the experience might be trying to relate.

I love this book - has given me so much insight and hope of a glorious future beyond what we can imagine

It took me about 12 months after purchasing this book, several years ago, before I started reading it. I was a little afraid to read it. However I'm on my 2nd reading. I read a great deal of personal book reviews before so I wasn't shocked. This book IS fantastic. But I tried telling my Bishop about the book, then backed off when I saw the look in his eyes. Love that guy and I didn't want to scare him in thinking I found a new religion. I have an intense testimony in the Gospel, in my faith of the Savior, Joseph Smith, and the Book of Mormon. But I have a better understanding of our life on earth and the life hear after. I told my sisters (and mom) about it several years ago. I told them to read as many reviews before they read it. 2 sisters are confused by it but youngest sister has read it multiple times. My advice: don't read it if you don't have a burning testimony of the Gospel...otherwise you want to read it.

Iike the openness in sharing his experiences

Prayerfully read this book and remember that it is HIS vision and what the Lord chose to show HIM for his growth. That being said, I personally felt enlightened and uplifted and joyful at the thought of how the Second Coming "may" play out. And now that we've gone through a Pandemic and an Earthquake recently, I'm anxious to re-read this again and take better notes. I am a calm, be prepared for whatever comes, but live every day joyfully not in fear of what may come. This made me wake up and want to stay MORE anxiously engaged in good causes.

 

The short review - this book changed my life.

The chain of events that happened during and after I read the book, were something I'll never forget. I've since re-read it 3 times. If you study the church doctrine, you'll see a lot of similarities with the prophecies both ancient and modern. Don't take it all the description of facts, though. The light you may gain from this book supposed to guide you on your personal journey to know the Lord and prepare yourself for His Second Coming, and having this quite amazing perspective gives also lot of food for thought. It's an amazing book. I listened to it as an audio book three times.
