The Bible, Dimensions, and the Spiritual Realm: Are heaven, angels, and God closer than we think?

by Jeff Rhoades

The Bible tells of a spiritual realm where heaven, angels, and God reside. Where is this mysteriously invisible realm? Science has opened the door to the possibility of higher spatial dimensions. Could this be where heaven is? Using God’s Word, this book will present evidence for the reality of the spiritual realm and also lay out the scientific evidence, from Einstein’s theory of relativity to string theory, that points to the possibility of a higher dimension or dimensions. Through this book, the everyday Christian will learn how to view the spiritual dimension or spiritual realm in a deeper way and will see clearly that there is much more to our universe than meets the eye. The seeking skeptic will also be presented with evidence that God is real and the Bible is His communication to man. The foundation is laid from the Bible, from science and from understanding that we are three-dimensional beings created by a Grand Programmer to live in the physical and spiritual universe. Because of sin, mankind lost the ability to see the spiritual realm, but through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, we can once again access the spiritual realm and live fully as God our creator intends.

Excellent read about dimensions outside of our own three-dimensional space

It has been a long time since I have read a book that has kept me intrigued until the end. I frequently lose interest halfway or three-quarters of the way. I read this book straight through and rather quickly. And I want to read it again. As a medical doctor, I understand science and physics fairly well, and everything I've read in this book makes sense. Jeff Rhoads explains so well the existence of a fourth dimension that exists "an eyelash width away", and I am convinced he is correct. Long ago I believed that heaven was some physical place way up there somewhere, but after a while it just didn't make sense to me. This book has made the location of heaven, and hell, more plausible than anything I have read, or believed, before. I now understand that there is indeed another dimension or dimensions that exist right next to us. Most likely, angels are right next to us, and they can move in and out of our world if God allows them to. As a believer, when I die I will most likely travel about one millimeter to my next destination. That is mind boggling! Fantastic read!
