What Heaven is NOT
I long for heaven (See I Want to Go Home). For those whose Lord and Savior is Jesus Christ, heaven is where we will go, and heaven is unimaginably glorious.
Heaven is also NOT a lot of things. And I rejoice at everything we’ll never see again.
In heaven:
There is no evil. Heaven is where righteousness dwells. (2 Peter 3:13)
There is no sin. No sin in any of us and no sin anywhere. We will be glorified. We will be like Christ. (Romans 8:29-30)
There is no pride.
No selfishness.
No violence.
No unwholesome talk.
No gossip.
No lying.
No grumbling.
No discontent.
No impatience.
No …
There are no tears. (Revelation 7:17)
There is no hunger, or illness, or death. (Revelation 21:4)
There is no separation.
I can’t wait! I want to go home!
Come, Lord Jesus!
