Is Heaven Really Safe? by matrix600(m): 7:43pm On Jan 27, 2017
We hear of rebellion in heaven, how Lucifer led an army of angels to revolt against God, infuriating God.

We hear of the garden of Eden, the perfect place that God prepared for man to live, but the plan was sabotaged by the talking snake which deceived man.

It made me begin to wonder about the possibility of God's salvation plan being sabotaged by something or someone, perhaps another of his beloved angels, maybe Michael planning another coup'.
It made me wonder about the possibility of the heaven plan degrading to another failed plan. And God is forced to come up with another plan.

If Divine plan can be sabotaged once, what stops it from happening again?

If angels can rebel, what stops it from happening again...

Is heaven really safe?

Can you define Heaven.
We have several layers of heavens,
And don't equate it with a physical place.

An insecure Christian Heaven. No thanks to Roman fairy tales that corrupted the Bible.

Heaven as many understand it including me, is the final destination of the faithful and righteous believers, where they meet solace, peace, and eternal life, free from all the suffering and challenges of life. A place where God and his angels reside and where the righteous are awaited.

This is the popular understanding of what heaven is.
Although various religious groups have their different versions.

So give us your opinion...

Heaven can be described as
1. The abode of the Almighty God to a physical man, bit as I said it can't be equated to a physical place because the laws of the physical world are completely different from that of the spiritual.
This means Heaven will be more of a situation than a place.
2. Heaven can also mean different levels of righteousness , which in correlation to 1 above, means different situations/environments/stages for different levels of the faithful.
3. I hope you know the bible equates heaven as a place of righteousness and also as a place for the righteous. What this simply means that this is a level believers should aspire to get to

Heaven in earlier analogies was referred to as a place above the sky, this is correct and also wrong based on how you view it
As for rebellion, I want you to know that any being blessed with free will can rebel, but all the forces in the world both spiritual and physical combined can never be equal to the source of the force, so any rebellion can never shift the creators original plan for us, which is physical perfection matt 5.48, gen 1.26. Delay yes, Change never. Fortunately God is not bound by the laws of physical time.

The fact that we're not in the garden of Eden is obvious enough to know that something went wrong, or are you saying it was god's original plan to have Adam and Eve kicked out of the Eden?

About rebellion, if there's still freewill in heaven then there's also the possibility of another rebellion, after all it happened before.

The garden of eden is metamorphical, it was never Gods plan to have Adam and Eve leave such state, Outside the death of Christ, I think that was the most painful thing to happen to the Father.
Yes there is possibility of rebellion till now, but Gods love conquereth all.

I think you're seriously and dishonestly dodging the question

Who created Satan?

do the angels have freewill?

will there be freewill in heaven when good Christians go there?

Can you kindly quote where I dodged the question dishonestly, why not follow the discuss from the very start.

God created Lucifer who became Satan due to his pride.
Angels have freewill, they also have desire.

When Christians die will they have freewill in heaven, there is nothing like religion in heaven. The human spirit will still have desire and freewill of what to do.

Our ultimate desire is to be one with God and that is what a good spirit will strive to aspire

can the angels and those that'll go to heaven chose to do bad?

Heaven is a place of sentient peace, good health, joy, happiness that is not everlasting but last for a while like earth it's also inhabited by people whose good act and knowledge are of great merit. moreover heaven's inhabitants still have the free will of doing good or evil, when they do evil and there time expires in the heavenly realm they fall to a lesser world repeating the cycle.

Angels yes.
Human spirits still have desire even after death,
The ultimate aim is to achieve oneness with God.
And yes it is far far tougher in the spiritual world.

God created Satan. He is not an angel but part of the Jinnskind(Wrongly call demons)
They were created of smokeless fire and have freewill like mankind.

Angels have no freewill.

Good question from the OP

Honestly, heaven is not safe. That is why we guys ain't interested in it. We've just come to realize that the perfect God cannot and will never create a perfect world but human being will.

Several wars broke up in heaven but the one that was recorded in the Bible was the final Heavens global war. Who knows how many cold wars that would have happened? Only god knows.

The boredom of heaven will lead to a peaceful protest and that protest will lead to serious agitation and that will cause a rancorous scenario which will then lead to a cold war before having the final global war in heaven call the "heavens global war 2".

it what we experience in life, some living a heavenly life while others living a hellish but in as much as we suffer or enjoy we must remember that it just for a while. The rationale behind my opinion is that we deserve all that life gives to us because life is fair but we might not know that.

The Holy Bible was written through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
Do you think God the father don't still inspire people today.
What you should know is some message/revelations are for one person, some for group of people, some for a certain age and some for totality.
