…a series about Heaven

“When we accept Christ, the whole universe becomes our family domain!  We become a child of Creator God.

In an instant, in that very moment when we confess to God and repent of our sinfulness, and acknowledge Jesus as Lord of our life, Creator God Himself cancels His decree of condemnation against us in His Court — and we are born again, made a brand new creature inside.”
– Excerpt from The Holy Spirit in You?

But [we are different, because]
our citizenship is in heaven.
And from there we eagerly await
[the coming of] the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ 
1
– Philippians 3:20



Windows Into Heaven

Jesus taught that there is a physical place called “heaven”, or “paradise”. It is actually way beyond what we know as “physical”. Imagine heaven. See it from Bible “windows”, the perspective of what He told us it is.

 

Heaven. What’s it going to be like?

Heaven. What’s it going to be? Many say, I can only imagine. Well, not really – because we can really know, not merely “imagine”. The Bible tells us a lot about Heaven.

 

Some sweet day!

Some sweet day I’m a goin’ home!  I’ll fly away!  Wow!  What a day that will be. I have hope.  Anyone on earth can have hope and joy everyday – through Jesus.  He carries me.  He is “the lifter of my soul.”

What about you?  Have you drawn close to God?  Whoever you are, no matter what you’ve done with the privilege of your existence – today there is hope for you in Jesus.

Heaven will be awe-full and law-less

Heaven will be awe-full and law-less. …filled-up full with unending awe of the One-and-Only, the wonderfully awesome God. …filled-up full with overflowing love that voids any need for laws. Love will rule inside our insides. The peace of God, in Heaven, will surpass our present ability to understand that realm.

First day in heaven

Oh my God! I could never have imagined this, Lord. I’ll do this for a million years.

 

Heaven for us – starts when we die

Heaven is joy and goodness everywhere – always – where only the goodness of God surrounds us. All of history flashes by – in Heaven’s timeless, infinite continuum, and all His saints arrive together in Heaven.  For more about time theory see:  Timeless Infinite Continuum, It’s Time, Right on Time.

 

God’s Fantastic Home – for those who follow Him

What He told us Heaven is going to be like for those who follow Him (1-12): We will all be changed. –Luke 23:39-43; 1 Corinthians 15:52. Heaven is built by God. – John 14:2-3. Heaven arrives without prior notice. –2 Peter 3:10. Heaven is so fantastic – it is inexpressible. –2 Corinthians 12:4….

 Timeless Infinite Continuum

Time is not forever. We each will have time end. Time’s up! My last breath will stop, and time will be no more, for me. I will pass in a flash from time – to eternity, where time will be no more. The next dimension we will go to – is timeless.  God has revealed to us many glimpses into eternity and His plan of the ages. God and His Heaven, and His angels – are in heaven’s dimension of a Timeless Infinite Continuum. Earth’s time is contained totally within our dimension, outside the Timeless Infinite Continuum of heaven. Earth time: It’s like a spinning toy top….

No Faith In Heaven

I think faith will not be necessary in heaven. ¨…Now we see in a glass darkly…¨ (1 Corinthians 13:12) but not later, when we will then be able to see ¨face to face¨. Scripture says that ¨now¨these three abide (faith,…

Life Is Short

Life is short.  As they say, “First you’re born, then you die”.  If you get all the way through the maze, you realize it was not a long path. Heaven or Hell.  There are only two alternatives for us after life on earth: Be with God forever, or be without God forever. It´s your choice.  Which one have you chosen?

Christ secured our eternal home

Excerpt from: Heaven. What’s it going to be like?

Jesus paid it all – so we could be forgiven of all these sins, all our past, all that separates us from The Most Holy God. What’s not covered?  He’s got it all covered, penalty paid.  We just need to humbly get together with Him and plead His grace upon us.

Starting-up after life

When we start “the after-life”, things will heat-up for some of us, but things get really cool for the rest of us. If you know what I mean. Jesus predicted “the end” (Matthew 24:verse 14), and He’s showing us signs of the times in order to give us a heads up.

Flesh and blood absolutely cannot inherit the Kingdom of God

So you want to go to Heaven. The Bible tells us so much about God’s Home Heaven. God created us inside a physical world. Here we are limited by time and space. But Heaven is in the spirit world dimension where Father God dwells.

There is a broad road that says heaven but goes to hell

Where’s the real road to heaven? There is a broad way that seems right. But what it seems to be is not what it really is. It “is a broad road that says heaven, but goes to hell.”  Sin always says a good thing.  It talks a good talk. It attracts us to go that way. Sin promises heaven.  But the road it leads down is the highway to hell. Are you on the road to hell, or have you turned your life around – and chosen Jesus?

Going To Hell?

The highway to hell is quite a ride. But it’s hectic, with all kinds of stops and twists and turns; lots of exits, turnabouts, intersecting roads. If you don’t pay attention, you end up going down scary roads, scary places, bad endings.

There is a tiny road along the way, however, that leads to God. It shows-up periodically on the highway to hell. It tends to catch sinners by surprise, because most don’t give a damn about God, and haven’t really considered traveling by any other road. They don’t like change, and most-all their friends are going to hell anyway, so they say.

There is a tiny road that leads to Creator God. Heaven is always just around the corner if you choose to take this tiny road. It is a choice. It is, however, one choice amongst many.

At death – we put on immortality

We all dream of being immortal. Never ever suffering to death. In God’s Home Heaven, we who followed Jesus on earth — will all be truly INVINCIBLE, living in incorruptible, immortal bodies – like Jesus had when He was resurrected.  “Now I say this, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God….” (v50)

No Faith In Heaven

Faith will not be necessary in heaven. Faith and hope will be ¨done away¨with (1 Corinthians 13:v8). When we finally are brought into His Kingdom, instead of on this earth with His Holy Spirit, then we will have Him, not just merely faith and hope.

How much is heaven worth to you?

How much is heaven worth?  What’s it worth to you?  Does it really mean that much?  What would you give — to make sure you got to heaven? Do you actually want to get to heaven?  The way you are living should clearly show your faith in Christ. I would think that IF it means so much to you — then your life would be lived many different ways because of it.  Right? So, what on earth are you doing?

My best day here

“Now” is good – so immediate… so absorbing. Demands so much attention. I practice being here – now. That’s good. Heaven is so…”later”, so not-pressing, so very “out of sight – out of mind”, so abstract. I am here now, but I want to be more aware of where I am going when I die. Where are you going when you die?  Heaven has no room for failing, no illusions, no deceit. Can’t be found, there. Heaven is where all is real and perfect, good without a strain of disappointment – only good, with not a worry, not a fret….

I am dying

How much is Heaven worth to you?  Even as life decays all around, I’m looking forward – to heaven. Even as life decays all around, I’m looking forward – to heaven. My best day here – it’s not even on the graph of heaven’s pleasure chart. Nothing here comes even close to how much better…

Just imagine entering into the presence of God?  That moment when your soul and spirit leave your body here, and you “step” into God’s next dimension?  – Source: Just beyond the veil

Just beyond the veil

Just beyond “beyond the veil”, beyond this dimension where we live – there is a whole different existence prepared for us by God. And it’s eternal. Got your mind around that? For those who accepted Christ in this life — it will be totally… Awesome!

 

What a privilege God gives us

It cost God to make us His children of privilege. Jesus made this privilege possible for all who come to Him – not just to some, but to all peoples. Some do reject Him (Hebrews 4:6). Their choice.

It is a choice, to receive Him or not. Have you accepted salvation in Christ. That is a forever pardon. The best offer you will ever receive. And it is guaranteed by the One and Only God of the Universe! Heaven’s borders open through repentance. You cannot just waltz across the Borders of God’s Kingdom. That is what the gift of God is all about: Jesus opens up heaven’s borders to all sinners who turn to Him in repentance  – with sincerity of heart.

Inexplicable Joy

Heaven is a joyful place. That is hard for me to imagine… Everywhere I look around me, I see so many problems, issues and unresolved conflicts. But in heaven, they won’t exist anymore. There will only be joy because my sins have been paid for by the blood of Jesus Christ.  One of the main things that describes being in heaven is JOY. The word “joy” has a much deeper meaning than just happiness. To be happy can change so quickly. It can come and go in a moment. But joy…

Our two homes

All our life we deal with the complexities of “owning” two homes: “the home of the body” and our “home with the Lord”. What predominates your living from day to day?

Jesus promised as He was leaving earth, going away in the clouds – that He would prepare a place for us in His Home – called Heaven (John 14).  Read: Jesus will return soon, just as He left


I look.  I see.  I feel.
I think.  I choose.  I choose You.
You are good.  You are so wonderful.
You died and rose again – for me.
How can I not follow You
with all my heart,
with all my soul,
with all my mind,
with all my strength
?
How can I not
strive to love my neighbors
as much as I love myself?
I will.

Footnotes

  1. “We are going to heaven — because God got our attention and we repented.  We are now born again because His sacrifice makes us eligible to be called His children.  It’s not of us.  It’s all of Him.  We are still sinful humans in the flesh.  But our great relief now, is that we look forward to the Day we will be sinless in practice 100% of the time!”   -Source:  Admitting I was wrong.

Bentley – News on Todd Bentley

The charismatic movement has been troubled by unbiblical practices and teachings. I am amazed at how folks are so easily mislead. “Many have exchanged the truth for a lie and chosen experience over content.” Look and examine and see, and compare with what the Bible teaches.

False Prophets

“You may be asking yourselves, “How can we tell if a prophet’s message really comes from the Lord?”” -Deuteronomy 18:21. How can we distinguish the true from the false?

No Faith In Heaven

Faith will not be necessary in heaven. Faith and hope will be ¨done away¨with (1 Corinthians 13:v8). When we finally are brought into His Kingdom, instead of on this earth with His Holy Spirit, then we will have Him, not just merely faith and hope.

Christian Answers Regarding Islam

Christian Answers Regarding Islam 1. The Koran purports it does not contradict the Bible but supports it. The Koran declares that it was written to confirm the previous revelations and not to replace the Bible according to Sura 5:48 which says, “And We have sent down to you the Scripture with truth, authenticating what is […]

Biblical Homosexuality

…a Christian´s Perspective on Homosexuality Quoted from: http://www.indegayforum.org/news/show/31489.html Donny | April 18, 2008, 11:33am | # I’m up to the challenge of gay theology questions: In-hospitality towards others and “haughtiness” were the sins of Sodom. But Ezekiel is quite explicit about sexual sins being front and center as well. “Haughtiness” and the word “Gay” as […]

Heaven is a joyful place. That is hard for me to imagine… Everywhere I look around me, I see so many problems, issues and unresolved conflicts. But in heaven, they won’t exist anymore. There will only be joy because my sins have been paid for by the blood of Jesus Christ.  One of the main things that describes being in heaven is JOY.

Letter to Danny

We are continually bombarded by the fiery darts of the Evil One.  And when these little pricks hit us, we need to put-out the flames, quickly. Doubts, depression, feelings of inadequacy, troubles, unruly kids…, when they come at us, we “have to declare” the truths of God, and  we have to choose Truth over lies. 

Children’s Bible in a Nutshell

A quick overview of the Bible (tongue-in-cheek). A child was told to write a book report on the entire Bible. 

About Biblical Inerrancy

Would God give us erroneous documents and call them “His”? Dumb idea! God brought everything together to form the Bible. Evidence is overpowering as you read what the Bible is, and what it tells us. “It is the history of the Bible that makes it unique among ‘sacred texts.’ See who wrote the Bible, how its reportive style is backed by archeology and historians…” – Quote from “Why You Can Believe the Bible” (www.everystudent.com).

Oh what a day that will be!
Wow! To enter into the Kingdom of God - freely as His redeemed child. No cringing in shame, no burden of sinfulness before Almighty Holy God. I can only imagine.

Jesus, the second man, is the Lord from Heaven
"The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.” In 1 Corinthians 15:47 the Apostle Paul explained that Jesus, while on earth, was absolutely God-man.  He was not a mere man, ever.

There Is Only One God
Getting tired of people flippantly saying, ¨Oh my god!¨ Ever wonder who their ¨god¨ is!? Does that ¨god¨ know he is ¨theirs¨? Do you say that? We are quite the god-makers, are we not! What do you mean…“your God”?

God Is Not Distant
God is not some far away, distant-from-you, dis-concerned bubble of energy, inside some aura of mist on a mysterious planet far far away…. “And the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore” –Psalm 121:8

When it comes to God, who wants mere opinions?
When talking “God” and “Truth” – I really do not care what you think. You should not care what I think. What matters is “what God thinks”.
Lost I Came To Him Oh the wonder of that love of our fathomless Creator, to save me in spite of my self-centered soul. Lost and rebellious, He chose me. Pursued and wooed, what mystery – grace. I said yes to Creator God. To know…
Time as it really is Since Heaven is not regulated by time, the passage of time on earth is a separate event. *We will all step out of time together – into God’s presence, with no “time lag”,…The time it takes to go from earth to God's presence - is instant. There is no waiting around in the next dimension for earth time to finish, no midway point of gathering, no Purgatory. It will be an instantaneous experience for all mankind that ever lived. At the moment of death, our soul instantly leaves....

No Tolerance for Error
God is not sloppy nor wishy-washy.... There is no room at all – for error – when it comes to being right with God. You are either all in, or you are all out. Are you sure you’re in?

Simple View of Life  a simple view of everything. God of Everything that is – created everything. We are very fortunate that He is loving and kind, and really, really wants us.
Ashamed of Yourself?
Ever done something you are ashamed of?  Come on now, you’re sitting there by yourself – ‘fess-up.  Nobody listenin’ to your brain confess.  So... Yes?  Scenario: “You have? What!?
Being Christian What's it like these days to be a Christian? Really a Christian. For many, what the Bible teaches is generally okay, but, when it comes to certain specificities, what it says, they reason, needs to be interpreted in the light of today's enlightened realities. But -- will that work in - The End - when we stand before Him, physically? Stop and think about that Day.

Forgiveness for evil deeds done

Time and tide are relentless. So are the many relentless Old Testament prophecies happening right now – but not in the way most thought they would be fulfilled. Are you ready for “the end” that Jesus spoke of? Take Jesus’ Challenge.

So this is what “woke” sounds like

So this is what “woke” sounds like?  You think?

Euphrates River

Words of Mere Men Are Not God’s Words

Mark 7:7 “They worship Me in vain [their worship is meaningless and worthless, a pretense], Teaching the precepts of men as doctrines [giving their traditions equal weight with the Scriptures].” You’d think it would be quite obvious, you think? When church leaders announce that they speak directly from God, they instantly become a bonafide false prophet if their words are later shown to be wrong. False prediction = False Prophet. Easy.

Dancing with doctrines of demons

We are warned in the Bible not to fool around with the Devil and his occult practices. Are you?
