Topic: God's Promises about Heaven.


Do you believe in Heaven?

Many may ask, what is heaven? Some will say, Heaven is the sky above where we see the clouds. Some say it is a space beyond our atmosphere;. 

In this topic, we will learn more about 5 Promises God Makes About Heaven and to see what Heaven really is.

1. Heaven is a physical place. 

Yes, we are fully confident, and we would rather be away from these earthly bodies, for then we will be at home with the Lord. - 2 Corinthians 5:8

As Christians, we know that we are just passing through with our life here on Earth. We know that our true home is in Heaven where we can praise and worship God non stop. No problems. No sickness. Just pure praise and joy. Our earthly bodies will decay after we die but we will then be reunited with our Father who is in Heaven.

2. Heaven is being prepared by Christ for you. 

2 There is more than enough room in my Father’s home.[a] If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?[b] 3 When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. - John 14:2-3

Christ is preparing Heaven for you. All you need is to accept His gift of life and believe Him as your personal Lord and Savior.

 3. Heaven is promised to God's children. 

See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him. - 1 John 3:1

Unfortunately, Heaven is not for everybody automatically. Heaven is for God's children. You may ask, how can you be a children of God? Read on...

 4. Jesus is the pathway to heaven 

Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. - John 14:6

Since you now know that Jesus is the only way. Believing in Him will grant you a place in God's family. Once you accept Christ as your Lord and personal Savior, you will be a children of God and you will have a place in Heaven.

 5. You are personally invited to Heaven. 

25 Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life.[a] Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying. 26 Everyone who lives in me and believes in me will never ever die. Do you believe this...? - John 11:25-26

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. - John 3:16  

Yes you! The one reading this is invited to Heaven. You don't need a ticket to go to Heaven. The bible doesn't tell you to just do good or join any religion in order to reach Heaven. The bible clearly states that you only need to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and personal Savior as He is the only Way.

 

Life is all about choices. Would you choose and believe in Jesus Christ today?
