When evil persons have gone in a life of sin, and find that they have reason to fear the just judgment of God, they begin at first to wish there were no God to punish them. Then little by little they persuade themselves that there is no God, and look for arguments to back their opinion. John Bunyan’s Visions of Heaven & Hell is a true story, not an allegory or fictional book. In it he describes how he almost succumbed to the indoctrination of an atheist, but for the intervention of Divine Love. John was conducted to Heaven to see the glories of what should be the inheritance of all who put their faith in Jesus Christ. From Heaven, John was transported to Hell to witness the eternal torments of damned souls. The conversations he had with lost souls in Hell, including a notable atheist, are all described in Visions of Heaven & Hell—Where Will You Spend Eternity?
