THREE MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT HEAVEN
HEAVEN WILL BE BORING
Devil is a liar. (Lucifer) 1 of 3 Archangels created by God, Michael, Gabriel, and Lucifer. Angel of Worship, he wanted to be like God, but God cast him down. 1/3 of angles went with him, what we know as demons today.
It is the absence of everything evil and the presence of everything good.
Everything you enjoy comes from God!
- Taste buds
- Ability see beauty
- Capacity for Joy
- Laugh
- Love!
What you love and enjoy on earth. You will love and enjoy heaven. Except, there will be:
- No Sin
- No Shame
- No Evil
- No Pain!
We will know one another, love and be loved
1 Cor 13:12
Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.
Heaven will be a place of unimaginable beauty
- New Colors
- Sounds
- Sensation
- Mountains
- Uncaged Animals
- Most beautiful place on earth
In heaven, you will see Jesus face to face
1 John 3:2 (NLT)
2 Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is.
You will have new and perfect bodies
1 Cor 15:35-36 But someone may ask, “How will the dead be raised? What kind of bodies will they have?” 36 What a foolish question! When you put a seed into the ground, it doesn’t grow into a plant unless it dies first.
Whatever you can imagine—Heaven is better
No more:
- Death
- Pain
- Sorrow
- Sickness
- Fear
- Stress
- Anxiety
- Sleepless nights
- Heartache
- Abuse
- Divorce
- Betrayal
- Violence
- Disease
- Injustice
- Racism
Boring? Heaven is the opposite of boredom. It is the absence of evil and the presence of God!
THIS WORLD IS NOT YOUR HOME
Nurturing a Christian perspective-one that rightly evaluates both the loves of this world and its satisfactions-starts with fixing our eyes on heaven. And in the days ahead, that is what we intend to do.
