Petitio Principe (fallacy - begging the question). Who's God. What is heaven. You will never find any answer. Petitio Principe (fallacy - begging the question). Who's God. What is heaven. You will never find any answer. |

What is God’s purpose for the earth? “This is what Jehovah says, . . . the One who formed the earth, . . . who did not create it simply for nothing, but formed it to be inhabited.”—Isaiah 45:18. WHAT PEOPLE SAY Many assert that the earth came about through a mindless process. Some religions teach that the earth is a temporary testing ground where God examines people to see if they should be rewarded with heavenly life or condemned to a fiery hell. WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS The Bible says that “God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1) He told the first human pair: “Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection . . . every living creature that is moving on the earth.” (Genesis 1:28) The only mention of death was in connection with disobedience. (Genesis 2:17) Thus, God meant for the earth to be the eternal home for mankind. It was to be filled with obedient humans who would care for it and live forever on it. Will the earth be destroyed? “He has established the earth on its foundations; it will not be moved from its place forever and ever.”—Psalm 104:5. WHAT PEOPLE SAY Scientists have proposed various scenarios by which the earth could be destroyed or rendered uninhabitable. Sometimes called existential risks, these include natural disasters—such as asteroid or comet impact, supervolcanoes, the death of the sun, or global warming—and they also include man-made catastrophes—such as nuclear war or bioterrorism. WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God’s purpose for the earth has not changed. God’s Word clearly states: “The earth remains forever.” (Ecclesiastes 1:4) Furthermore, it will be inhabited for all time: “The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it.”—Psalm 37:29. WHY DOES IT MATTER? Belief that the earth will eventually be destroyed has caused some to plunder its precious resources. It has caused others to lose hope for the future and to live only for today. This can lead to a life with little meaning or purpose. On the other hand, if we believe that we can live forever on earth, we are more likely to make decisions that will benefit us and our families—even in the distant future. Is heaven mankind’s final destination? “As for the heavens, they belong to Jehovah, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.”—Psalm 115:16. WHAT PEOPLE SAY Many believe that all good people go to heaven. WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS Heaven belongs to God, but the earth is for man. The Bible speaks of “the inhabited earth to come.” (Hebrews 2:5) Jesus was the first man to ascend to heaven, and the Bible shows that a select few others will go to heaven for a specific purpose. Alongside Jesus, they will “rule as kings over the earth.”—Revelation 5:9, 10; Luke 12:32; John 3:13. WHY DOES IT MATTER? The belief that all good people go to heaven is not compatible with what the Bible really teaches. If God were to take all good people to heaven, it would imply that he failed to accomplish his original purpose for the earth and that his promises regarding everlasting life on earth are not true. In contrast, God’s Word promises: “Hope in Jehovah and follow his way, and he will exalt you to take possession of the earth.”—Psalm 37:34. 1 Like |

Omotolu:And some people liked this comment even though it makes absolutely no sense at all. "Don't strain your mind" "Live a godly life" and "...leave it to the unknown God"? This logic is poor. |

vanndubi: From comments so far, it is clear that humans were not designed to in the heavens with God. Psalm 115:16 says:"The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men". so u mean the heaven is for God and his angels only. while the races we humans are into is for another earth somewhere?? |

simdam500:Its there in the bible, he is right about the number. But the people who constitutes these number, is vague, like many other writings in the bible. |
Re: What Will Man Be Doing In Heaven/Paradise? by Nobody: 12:23pm On Dec 14, 2014 |
simdam500: O my , I guess you use your bible as a prop most times , it's clearly written in revelations |

neoapocalypse : Pyrrho : wow that nice am sure when that verse was written, we must have had only 200, 000 people on earth then, cos let just think about it we have over 144, 001 pastors on earth right now not to talk of congregation........... hilarious... * arms fold * |
Re: What Will Man Be Doing In Heaven/Paradise? by Nobody: 12:36pm On Dec 14, 2014 |

otijah: You better think well and give your life to Jesus. Hell is not a place u can even pray for or enemy to go. Sex is not everything in life. If you ve married stay with your wife,if not wait till the time. Sex kills if wrongly apply. |
