Heaven will be the absence of fear...of hate...of sorrow...and all those other negative emotions & thoughts that plague a person. It will be the absence of sin ...of the devil's torment (actually the absence of the devil himself)...the absence of sickness, want & decay.
there will be joy... beauty...love...gentleness.. When I'm in an inner tube floating down a lazy river on a beautiful sunny day...that's like dying & going to heaven. Only better too... When I finally finish some hugh task...it's like dying & going to heaven. Only better too... When I look into my little nephews innocent faces...that's like dying & going to heaven. Only better too! Taking a drive on a spring or fall day & seeing God's beautiful creation is like dying & going to heaven. Only better too! and sooo much more... |

what do you HOPE heaven is like?
Heaven would be finding out that with God all things really are possible, and God really is nicer than me. If those two things are true, heaven will be the greatest thing I can imagine. Anything less than this and heaven will be a huge disappointment. Clearly, finding out that the biblical God is real would be a huge disappointment since the biblical God is neither all-powerful nor nicer than me. |

Let's step outside the box a little and ponder this....what if you got to heaven only to discover that the biblical God DOES exist and you were wrong about him....he actually IS all-powerful AND nicer than you?

Let's step outside the box a little and ponder this....what if you got to heaven only to discover that the biblical God DOES exist and you were wrong about him....he actually IS all-powerful AND nicer than you? Then I would know that the Bible was a forgery because the God depicted in those stories is neither all-powerful nor nicer than me. We simply can’t have God being different from what the book claims and simultaneously claim that it’s the same God, now can we? In other words, it wouldn’t be a matter of me being wrong about him, it would be a matter of the Bible being wrong about him. The bottom line is that you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Either the biblical stories are true, in which case God is not all-powerful, all-wise, all-loving and nicer than me. Or, if the biblical picture of God is true, then he can’t be all-powerful, all-wise, all-loving and nicer than me. It’s not about whether or not I’m right or wrong. It’s about whether or not the biblical picture is right or wrong. All I’m saying is that if God turns out to be as described in the Bible then I will be extremely disappointed. And if he isn't, well then, clearly that story wasn’t the true picture of God. You just can’t have the cake and eat it too. Something’s got to give. Either God is like the Bible says, or he’s not. Both cannot be simultaneously true. |

Heaven will be a functional family. Everyone will be happy to see one another. All grudges will be forgotten. It will be a drama free family reunion that lasts all eternity. Will there be food? I hope so. Will there be music? I believe so. Will there be books? Why not? I believe that every good natural talent will find an outlet in heaven.
