History

Franklin Classics

The moving recollections of Rebecca Ruter Springer serve as emotional support to Christians who are bereaved and grieving, or contemplating the nature of the heavenly afterlife. Arranged in chapters as a loose narrative, Intra Muros comprises of a series of dreamlike episodes and reflections upon the essence of life, death and what comes next after we perish. Steeped in the Christian tradition, the author's narration traverses the spiritual planes that follow death, and her descriptions of heaven are evocative and reassuring. The appearance of the heavenly realms, the blessings of the angelic spirits, and the journey the believer's souls makes the author's words profound and vivid to read. The imagery that the writer presents is enormous in scope, yet the emotional comfort she seeks to provide remains constant - sight of the book's practical purpose, of comforting Christians who are bereaved through the harrowing experience of loss, is never lost.

"My Dream of Heaven...captures Biblical truths with emotional impressions." - Rev. Billy Graham Facing Death and the Life After This nineteenth century classic inspires the reader with new confidence and excitement about an eternal home and reunion with loved ones gone on before. It contains two missing chapters that have not appeared in print in over 100 years! The words of the author, Rebecca Ruter Springer, set the stage for this classic treasure from the original 1898 version. Within the pages of this little volume lies... "the hope that it may comfort and uplift some who read, even as it then did, and as its memory ever will do, for me, I submit this imperfect sketch of a most perfect vision." This version includes a foreward and afterword from well-known speaker and minister Vicki Jamison-Peterson.

Rebecca Ruter Springer’s 1898 vision of heaven was received as she lay unconscious suffering from a near-fatal illness. For well over a hundred years her inspiring descriptions of reunions with her family and friends on the other side have given hope to many who believed their loved ones to be lost forever. Her story is told through a Christian lens and uses biblical terminology, but the truths it contains are universal and reflect the Christ teachings rather than particular interpretations or practices associated with them. Concerning heavenly churches, Mrs. Springer writes: “But I saw no churches of any kind. At first this somewhat confused me, until I remembered that there are no creeds in heaven, but that all worship together in harmony and love—the children of one and the same loving Father. “Ah,” I thought, “what a pity that that fact, if no other in the great economy of heaven, could not be proclaimed to the inhabitants of earth! How it would do away with the petty contentions, jealousies and rivalries of the church militant! No creeds in heaven! No controverted points of doctrine! No charges of heresy brought by one professed Christian against another! No building up of one denomination upon the ruins or downfall of a different sect! But one great universal brotherhood whose head is Christ, and whose cornerstone is Love.” Do our souls survive death? Spiritualist literature is replete with affirmations transmitted to us through the minds and pens of those who have the ability to receive such information. In addition, we have countless near-death testimonies, among which Intra Muros can be categorized. It is hoped that this little book will provide the reader a satisfying glimpse of the joys and wonders that lie in store for us the next world. * * * The Life on Other Worlds Series is a selection of classic accounts of the afterlife and otherworldly life. Descriptions vary, yet a thread of similarity runs through them all. May they serve as a travel guide as we embark on the greatest adventure of all—the journey into the mysterious realms beyond this world.

As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)
