HEAVEN IS A PLACE!
HEAVEN IS A PLACE! Jesus said so - “I go to prepare a PLACE for you” John 14 v2. Some people think Heaven is just a state of mind, a figment of their imagination, they are confused about what comes after death. There is no confusion in God’s Word. I would rather believe God than the philosophers of this evil unbelieving generation!
Heaven is a real literal PLACE in another part of God’s Universe prepared for those who have believed in Jesus, whose names are written in the “Lamb’s Book of Life”; those who have believed in the sacrifice of Jesus for the forgiveness of their sins and are redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. Heaven is the eternal home of the church!
Jesus was an authority on Heaven because that’s where He came from. He said “Come ye blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared from the foundation of the world”. Jesus called it a Kingdom, the Kingdom of Heaven. In Rev. 21 it is described as a PLACE where there is no night, no tears, no pain or sickness, no curse of sin, no death. Heaven needs no natural light; it is filled with the Glory of the Lamb - Jesus. We will gather round the throne of God and worship the Lamb, singing “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain”. Hebrews 6v4 says we can have a foretaste of Heaven right now! But only a foretaste, full perfection is yet to come! Hallelujah!
