Heaven is an imaginary place hence will look how you anticipate. A child will imagine a land of ice cream and chocolate. An adult male will imagine a brothel or immense wealth. I do not care because it doesn’t exist. 1 Like |

The best description I can give is for you to think of the most happiest moment in your life, the happiness out felt, the zenith of that happiness is how you would be forever and ever in heaven. |

Banilla:Heaven is a perfect place filled with perfect ppl, but we are not and thats why The Good God of the universe came down to the earth lived a perfect life and died for imperfect ppl. So that if we believe in Jesus Christ alone and trust in Him alone and His life work and not our own works or repentance ( Matthew 6:33) We will be with Him forever in His perfect paradise heaven Eph 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that NOT of yourselves: it is the GIFT of God: NOT of works, lest any man should boast. |

membranus:1. Only those who have eternal life have an afterlife to worry about, for all others.... from dust of this earth their mind, body, and soul were made and to dust their mind, body, and soul will return after death - Genesis 3 vs 19 -22. 2. Delusions from people who had near death experiences aren't truth.. |
Re: What Is Heaven Like? by Kobojunkie: 6:32pm On Jan 15, 2023 |
Stephen0mozzy:1. I am afraid you are mistaken as everything stated there is found right in the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, God's Law for all those who are born-again. 2. According to Jesus Christ, the one who is King over Heaven and over Hell, the only Way to enter into Heaven at the end is to live your existence here on earth in continuous submission and obedience of His teachings and commandments, the Gospel and Truth of God in the Kingdom of God.. The reason I seem to speak authoritatively about the terms has to do with the fact that I accept what the King of Heaven has decreed as the Way into His Heaven. |

InvertedHammer:Banilla The righteous will have a glorious body. Philippians 3:21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. |
Re: What Is Heaven Like? by Kobojunkie: 9:58pm On Jan 15, 2023 |
MrPRevailer:1. When Jesus Christ rose from the dead, did He switch bodies before He ascended into Heaven? He went up in the same body that He lived here on earth with so where does this idea of a glorious body come from when it does not come from even Jesus Christ who is described as a human being in Heaven — prophecy by Daniel? |
Re: What Is Heaven Like? by MrPRevailer(m): 9:59pm On Jan 15, 2023 |
BluntTheApostle:Banilla From my Bible knowledge, I'm of the opinion that those who are called to the wedding of the Lamb (Revelation 19:9) will have their place in New Heaven. While those who are resurrected after the great Tribulation (Revelation 20:4) will have their place in the New Earth. John 14:1 "In my Father's house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you". |

Jumbojax:Banilla I hope it's not where you are going with this? Don't misunderstand that scripture. Although, we trust in his grace, we must abstain from all appearances of evil (1 Thessalonians 4:18, Mark 9:43, Romans 6:1, Revelation 21:8 ).....to name a few. There are so many verses. 1 Thessalonians 5:22 "Abstain from all appearances of evil" 1 John 3:3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law." Romans 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. |

Banilla The dwelling place of God is extremely beautiful. How much more the New Heaven he creates. Read Revelation 21. It's not only about what Heaven looks like (John 14:1-3). It's the eternal rewards. We shall be in God's likeness. That's the position the devil/fallen angel was fighting for. Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Daniel 12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. Also see Phillipians 3:21 2 Corinthians 4:17 In Revelation 19:9-10, John the beloved was shown the wedding of the lamb in Heaven. He was so overwhelmed he fell down to worship the being that showed it to him. But was restrained. If you want to read Revelations of people who went to Heaven and Hell and what they saw. The trusted source I know is https://www.divinerevelations.info/ Yes. There are sources that cannot be trusted because the devil is out to deceive people. He can speak many truths and include a little lie which does it's evil work/damage. COME TO THE LORD'S CHOSEN. Pitch your tent. Miracles, wonders, genuine Salvation, and a glorious Christian life awaits you. |

OyinO: You are wrong. The concept of an Afterlife or 'Spirit world' where we return to after physical death is thousands of years older than Greek mythology. Africans have known about this realm for tens of thousands of years, long before the first white man existed. In fact the Greeks learnt about the Mysteries from our Egyptian black ancestors. Igbos call 'heaven' ala mmuo, the land of the spirits. They also call it 'enu igwe', (above the skies). I'm sure you have a term for it in your own language. Igbos have always known that ala mmuo is a place of peace and contentment, where sorrow is non-existent. There is no concept of 'hellfire' among African cultures, and THAT is clearly a Greek/Roman invention which they designed to scare people into adopting their christian religion. |

Location of Heaven: Look up into the sky with your eyes, telescope, Hubbe Space Telescope, James Webb Telescope or any more powerful lenses, what do you see? If eventually, man is able to see the end of the universe, that very end is our side of the fence between our dimension and Heaven. Take a moment to sink that in. The human mind can't quite capture, interpret, relay, describe, illustrate, explain the beauty of or thr phenomena in Heaven. The purity of Heaven can't be described. It's like asking a red ant in the forest to describe the Falcon 9 Space Rocket launched by SpaceX - no reference points right, it's not even enabled to see it if neae the launch site. There are so many more colours in Heaven than are here in this fallen realm. If a fallen realm has 10 billion colors, how many will its Source Realm possess? Inhabitants of Heaven can and do communicate through telepathy. ...the way the Holy Spirit talks to His own. You just know the message despite never hearimg nor reading nor seeing proofs or references. Everything is alive in Heaven. Even the plants and precious stones on the ground do joyfully make very sweet music to God. Luke 19⁴⁰ And He answered and said unto them, “I tell you that if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.” There are jobs waiting for us in Heaven - such are jobs that aren't not laborious at all. But the nature and description we'll learn when we get there. Pleasures and Beauty with No End If you relocate to your favorite country today you'll love the beauty of the place but only for while. The awe will eventually wear out. Tjat it, your human senses will get tired of it after some time. But Heaven isn't like that at all because ... It is the city of the Most High - a Living City whose Source of light is Our HEAVENLY FATHER HIMSELF. Don't bother trting to imagine the beauty of God's presence and glory and holiness - just ensure you get there. Angels are praising God genuinely everyday in Heaven because the beauty of His holiness constantly thrills and surprises the inhabitants of Heaven. It can NOT be described. Imagine what it will mean for you and I to be made God's sons and daughters? You have got no idea... so make sure to make it there! Romans 8:14 "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." Romans 8:15 "For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; [i]but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father." |

Napata77: Well, you have tried by doing some justice to the subject matter but you have also succeeded in mixing them up.. However, the version you know about the Africans' is quite different from that of the Greco-Roman and European version. They stole and plagiarised the African version. But I'm surprised you are saying the same thing with me but saying I'm wrong. Anyways, Mighty kudos |

OyinO: You should have explained yourself better. Your post simply said the concept of heaven was Greek mythology, making it appear as if we learnt about the existence of the afterlife from Greeks. 1 Like |
