If we as Christians believe we will be given mansions and precious stones in heaven then we are no different from the Muslim extremists who believe they will receive 72 virgins in heaven. 5 Likes |

dalaman:The bible dosent communicate common sense, the bible is not meant to be universally accepted and redundant like multiplication table, the bible is God's word and communicates spirit, and Jesus rightly puts it thus: The words that I speak to you are spirit and alive. You can't understand the bible the way you understand your text book using your brains or by argument and so on. You need the holy spirit who is the custodians of the secret things of God to reveal them to you. Read the bible all you want but without the holy spirit, it won't make sense to you. 3 Likes |

dalaman: That's why I'm less active on Christian topics. They leave out the grain and focus on chaff, thereby bringing to ridicule the works and intension of GOD. Christians open themselves up to debate, trying to prove what doesn't really matter in our earthly sojourn. Love, peace, repentance, forgiveness and fear of the LORD is the grain, all others can wait till when the time is ripe. Like Apostle Paul said, we only know in part, but face to face we will see and know everything. 2 Likes |

sukkot:After the resurrection, people would still be eating and drinking and would still enjoy palacial privileges. Remember he is the king of kings. He created all the precious stones and the like. He promised those who would suffer with him would reign with him. There are beautiful physical houses to be inhabited in the new world where the Lord Jesus would reign. |

[/quote] Who really cares whether there will be mansions or not. As long as you are forever in God's presence, nothing else should matter. However, l am more interested in whether we go to our eternal reward immediately after death, or we "sleep" until the last judgement. Your opinion, please. Thanks. |

dalaman: Or better still, God would have hardwired it into our brains before we are birthed into this earth. So that knowing His word would be instinctive, as much as feeding is, instead of the myriad doctrines we are being force-fed by different churches and pastors who coincidentally all claim to have the same Holy Spirit working in them. 1 Like |

The beauty of Christianity is that in the presence of God, there's liberty. There's freedom to debate, freedom to research, freedom to pursue knowledge. Somethings are revealed by God, others are meant to be discovered by us. Though revelation by God is much more preferable but Bible says it's the glory of God to conceal a matter but the honour of princes to search it out The uniqueness of Christ is that he did away with the curse of sin and death and we are made/live right by Grace. The important is to seek to know God with all your heart and you will find him |

afroxyz: My only problem with all these mansion is the congestion they will cause in the said heaven ( a mythical sky city) with billions if not trillions of Christians. What do you now do in these mansions? Who will maintain them, pent them regularly? How will you now relate with others if everyone in heaven lives in one mighty Palace o sorry mansion for ever. The problem with heaven is that it was propagated thousands of years ago when men were living like animal, with poor standard of living and bad environment. Now we have sophisticated technology, the premier League and so many things that you will not get in those heaven. Life will be super boring in a big mansion heaven where you eat and sleep for eternity 2 Likes |

Nor be only mansion, na a whole Amen Estate you go get. Plus a bevvy of countless unclad babes of various shapes, genuine hair, sizes and non-Alao-Akalalised complexion. People really have an ephemeral view of heaven. Others say na teenage virgins dey wait for them there. Earthlings are really a weird lot. |

cc KingEbukasBlog, malvisguy212, Scholar8200, Image123 "mansions", this is a very interesting one. The mention of "rooms/mansions/resting-places/homes/dwelling places/abodes/lodgings" only came about when Jesus responded to question(s) asked by the disciples about where He was going The disciples being familiar with this ''groom preparing place for bride'' Jewish customs, related to it easily without thinking its a brain-teaser Preparing a place for the bride, by the groom, in a large area of land in the parts owned by the male head of a family actually has to do with a Jewish custom prevalent in just before, around and maybe a bit after Jesus' time. I am not sure if the practice is still done in Israel at all or whether still now it is continued with present day Jews The groom, in Jesus' times, before any wedding announcement or date fix, is expected to prepare or build an extension in his father's estate (i.e. father's large area of land) The add-on building extension (i.e. rooms/mansions/resting-places/homes/dwelling places/abodes/lodgings) serves to accomodate the intended bride. The wedding does not take place until when the groom's father is satisfied with the progress and work done by the groom in preparing the extension or building the add-on building extension (i.e. ''mansion'') In My Father's house are many rooms/mansions/resting-places/homes/dwelling places/abodes/lodgings. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? - John 14:2 "However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows - Mark 13:32 It is not for the biblical times Jewish son to know the date fixed for the wedding. It is the father, after father is content that the groom has satisfactorily and up to the father's standards has completely prepared the place for the bride, that the father decides the date of the wedding That is the correlation between John 14:2 and Mark 13:32, and how Jesus came about the mentioning this old biblical times Jewish custom to explain that He doesnt know the time, He is only and merely going to prepare a place on the large area owned by the Father, and further saying in Mark 13:32 that, it is the Father who determines or has the last say on the wedding date Only the Father determines or knows the D-Day (i.e. the designated day) And to those who had been selling doves he said: “Take these things out of here, and do not make my Father's house a house of trade.” - John 2:16 Diverging a bit here, compare John 14:2 with John 2:16 above for a moment, to note that how ''Father's house'' is used in both verses and elsewhere has two or more different meanings The former in John 14:2, is as in like a sovereign, kingdom or government, whilst the latter in John 2:16 can be signified as an embassy/high Commissions/consulate/diplomat's building If the Kingdom of Heaven extends or stretches beyond Heaven itself, then it's easy to recognise or find out that, from wherever one is standing, Heaven (i.e. its sovereign, kingdom or government) goes further or is more than, as far as the eye sees 2 Likes |
