Yes. This is a real book on actual time travel.
If you want a real live account of a man traveling in time to the future, you've got that in the book of Revelation.
Satan is in the lake of fire.
The New Jerusalem is built.
Christ and His saints are reigning forever and ever.
From the divine viewpoint of Him who inhabits eternity, it has all already been accomplished.
John saw me there in the New Jerusalem.
I hope he saw you there too.
The past tense used often emphasizes that it cannot fail to come to pass. It has already come to pass to Him who transcends time.
