What Will Heaven be Like?

   The Bible says that Heaven is above the world, that God looks down upon the earth and when Jesus left this earth he accended "up to Heaven". Mark 16:19

   Heaven is a place of light, love, holiness, happiness, righteousness, good, worship, service, joy, peace and eternal life because Jesus is there. The New Jerusalem will be the new capital of the world and the place where those saved gather to worship. There will be no darkness, hate, sin, sadness, unrighteousness, sorrow, or death. Of course when nothing goes wrong and everything is good, you know your in heaven. What a wonderful reward from the Lord our God who loves us and redeemed us!
Heres a little information of heaven:
  • It Is A Place of No More Thirst, Hunger, Sorrow, Pain or Death – Revelation 21:4
  • Heaven Is A Place Where Nothing Can Be Corrupted – Matthew 6:20, Rev. 21:27
  • It Is A Place Of Pleasures Forevermore – Psalm 16:11, 1 Corinthians 2:9
  • It Will Be A Place Of Worship – Revelation 15:4
  • It Will Be A Place Of Constant Illumination – Revelation 21:23.
   Heaven is described in the Bible very clearly as an actual place. It is not a feeling or figure of the imagination. Some say that you do not have to die in order to get to heaven, but that when Jesus is in your heart you have heaven in you. I personally am not sure about that, but do not disagree either. I am excited to one day be face to face with God in heaven!
