The Heavens Opened

I've read this book over and over... it's one of my favorite books

I have been a Pentecostal Christian for over 25 years and I have read many books on people's experiences of "visions" and "dreams,"about Heaven and Paradise. This book written by Anna Rountree is one of the most fasinating collections of messages, from the Lord Jesus Christ, that I have experienced since I read a book written by Merrietta Davis, "Caught Up Into Paradise!" I never thought I would ever read a book that so captivated my attention and curiousity as Sister Rountree has in this very detailed writing. I found the experience with her on our "Father's Lap and wrap in His Arms," so personal and encourageing! She calls Him "Daddy" several times. For some who do not know, the Greek word "Abba," means "Daddy! We cry Abba, Father in Romans 8:15. I had gentle tears streaming down my face in almost every chapter. I sang along with the songs she recorded hearing in heaven. I absolutely "Loved" her conversations with many angels. I did not know that angels could be so funny and entertaining!!! You will laugh, cry, remenise with her times with Jesus, and rise up, in your spirit of prayer, in a stronger force against the powers of evil that are deceiving God's precious children of the Church and of the world system. Her 73 pages, of Biblical and personal notes, at the end give an extrememly strong foundation for the credibility of this writing!!! I was alittle leary of "new visions" others were having until I read in Acts 2:16-21 where it says, God shall pour out of His Spirit in the last days, young men and women shall see visions and older men and women shall shall dream dreams!!! I am purchasing her other book tonight!

I've never, ever, in all my life read anything like this book. And I've read everything. Most of these "I saw heaven" books are weird and poorly written. This book, on the other hand, is in a class all its own.I find Sister Rountree's account to be credible and written with a keen matter-of-fact style. Sister Anna graciously spares us from religious cliche and Bible catch phrases. Instead, she's direct and unapologetic, adding very little personal interjection. She kindly tells us what she saw and experienced and lets us have it as close to first hand as possible without actually being there ourselves.This masterpiece left me numb for days--literally. There's so much in here to digest. I read it straight through in one day. I'm about to read it for the second time. I'm sure I'll read it a few more times, too.Folks, there's nothing out there in the same neighborhood as this book. If there is, please email me!

This book I believe is a part of the message that God is conveying to his Children in these last days. The book entails this lady called Anna who is caught up to heaven,[The New Jerusalem] , where she meets with God The Son, Jesus Christ , the other host of heaven. The book is absolutely wonderful as it portrays her experiences, conversations and times with the redeemed saints, angels . But the most enlightening part is that She meets with God The father in His Ultimate Glory and is priviledged to be commissioned by Him . The 24 elders in the book of revelation also grant her their words of support, to carry the Heart of the father to the earth. I finished this book in a matter of 6 hrs, one of the records I HAVE almost never beaten except when I read the ," Final Quest ", by Rick Joyner .

May 5, 1999 The book is an easy to read account of the author's encounter with heaven. Mysteries are unveiled. The reader's eyes begin to see with a deep understanding what is not visible in the natural. And the love of GOD becomes a livng truth. The value of man to GOD is exposed through pictures and events in the unseen world of heaven. It is a must read for anyone who wants to known GOD. About half way through the first half I burst into tears when the author cried, "Daddy." The foundation of Love produces a rock of comfort in a world of tribulation. Roundtree helps to settle the rock in her encounter with heaven and GOD.

Everyone needs to read this book, Christian or not, because this book will answer as many questions as it brings up in the mind of the reader. This book reads like two seperate books. I recommend that you read the book itself and then read the notes in the back, like book number two. I spent two afternoons virtually glued to this book, I did not want to put it down for any reason. I cried, laughed, prayed,was in total wonderment, enthralled.....need I go on? Wow, there are not words adaquate enough to express how I feel about this exquisite journey Anna was privelidged enough to take, through grace from God alone. I know that, I know that, I know....For those who believe no explaination is necessary, for those who do not believe no explaination is possible. This book takes you on a journey from first word to last into,simply put, heaven and all of the facets there in. You will meet "characters" whos names you will not forget, you will be going through your everyday things and these names and circumstances will just pop into your head for more thought and contemplation. I think this is a gift from God. I know this book is a gracious gift from the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, as are its authors Anna and Albert. Read, learn, and inwardly digest this wonderful book, then do like I did, read it again and again because God reveals more of himself each time you do. God Bless Everyone who even thinks about reading this, those who do will be BLESSED IMMEASURABLY.
