What do we think heaven is like? Do we picture angels with fluttery wings strumming harps on a cloud? Does it captivate our attention or does it sound uninteresting? What is the truth and what is cultural misrepresentation?
How do we form our thinking on something that we struggle so much to comprehend?
What can we do in the waiting to prepare for eternity? How can a right understanding of eternity affect our behavior here on earth…
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. 23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24 By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, 25 and its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there.
Revelation 21:21-25 (ESV)
4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
Revelation 21:4 (ESV)
