You have now come to Mount Zion and to the heavenly Jerusalem. This is the city of the living God, where thousands and thousands of angels have come to celebrate. Here you will find all of God's dearest children, whose names are written in heaven. And you will find God himself, who judges everyone. Here also are the spirits of those good people who have been made perfect. And Jesus is here! He is the one who makes God's new agreement with us, and his sprinkled blood says much better things than the blood of Abel.
Hebrews 12:22-24
When you ride the train you will often hear the "next stop" announced over the speakers in the ceiling of the train car. These three verses would be an appropriate announcement before the train stops at the gate of Heaven!
Do you really want to go to Heaven, or is it just a better alternative than Hell? Many people believe that everyone will go to Heaven and that Hell does not exist. They want to believe that life goes on after they die, but they don't have any idea what it will be like.
Heaven is where Christians will be with Jesus forever! It is where they will find out what it means to be the "Bride of Christ."
The beginning of Heaven on earth is when you give your heart to Jesus.
"Lord Jesus, I want to be with You where You are. I want to hear Your voice and see Your face. I want to rest in Your arms and live in the peace that cannot be understood. Come quickly, Lord Jesus. Amen."
