Heaven

We all have our own idea of what heaven will be like. Some think that they will be playing golf on their favorite course or spending endless amounts of time on a warm, sunny beach. Is that what it will be like?

The Bible does tell us a few things about heaven but not enough to satisfy our earthly curiosity. One thing we know is that we don't turn into angels.

"Are they (angels) not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?" - Hebrews 1:14

The Bible says that there will be a war - a big war - but the angels and the demons will fight it. And the angels win.

But as to the day-to-day happenings, things will be rather peaceful. All the believers will be living their lives much like the early church did. Loving one another. Giving to one another as there is a need. And worshiping God.

All those who believe in Jesus will be there. Most of them we won't recognize but it will be like we know them.

We will get to see some people from church, but others from church will be strangely missing.

There are going to be A LOT of babies. And they all will be loved and cared for.

I guess there's not much we can say about heaven with great certainty. But this one thing will make it all worth the wait. 

We get to see Jesus!

"And every created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying, "To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.” - Revelation 5:13
