John Pontius: One of the most amazing Authors of our time. I am truely touched forever. Spiritually speaking, the most amazing books, he left all people here on earth as beautiful gifts from on high. I will forever be greatful to him. He will be missed. My Love and Condoleces to his family.

It saddens me that I just discovered this author and his wonderful writings just to lose him. He must've had a tremendous gift because the spirit is so strong while reading his words. Peace be with his family.

Brother John: I discovered you 11 months ago, just as I was joining the church. Your writing inspired me deeply, and I shared you with many others. Though I never met you in the flesh, I love you. You have helped many, and will help many more, both in this and in other dimensions. Thank you, and I hope to meet you in the celestial kingdom. -- Larry Winn

Thanks for the precious insight into sacred things. Your books have been life changing to many. Well Done John Pontius

We will miss you John.
You were always so much fun when we were growing up, and often times the voice of temperance in our youth.

Condolences. Great man, great talent, and will be missed; but now putting his talents to use for the Lord's work in some other assignment.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Terri! John was a special man and will be deeply missed. God bless you for being there for him! We love you and wish you the best! Our prayers are with you always! --Heather H., Cedar Fort, Inc.

My husband just mentioned he wanted John's last book "Visions of Glory" last night. May his reunion in Heaven be Glorious. My prayers are with his family. Sally Munsey

Heaven gained a great force for good. John has a wonderful work to do, and has already started. We love you Brother John and we will keep vigil over Terri and Jessica.
