Heaven – who goes there? “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”, (Romans 3:23 NKJV) “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23 NKJV) John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Why do we need to know about heaven?
We have heavenly citizenship Philippians 3:20-21 “But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.”
What we can look forward to Heaven is a place of peace and joy, a place of rest, of fellowship, of friendship, no death, no pain, no suffering. The bible speaks of heaven being a city. Hebrews 11:10, 13:14. Buildings, gatherings, walls made from precious stones, etc. Hebrews 11:16 refers to Heaven as a country, we can expect to find earthly things there, including atmosphere, mountains, water, trees, people, houses, etc.
