Anything that has a name do exist, being it visible or invisible. So far has it has a name do exist. So therefore heaven do exist. I did not see the land of America before I came to America. Somebody from America told me about the land and that was how I got to know her. I believed the person and set off to come over to the land. I believed and did all that the person told me and I got to the place of America. Had I not believed that America is a real place, would I have got to America? No!
This makes me believe that Heaven is indeed a real place and so also I believe other Christians do.
"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment works for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight to glory; while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the thingd which are not seen are eternal"(2 Corinthians 4:17, 18)
"For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens"(2 Corinthians 5:1)
The Son of God who came from heaven to earth that sons of men might go from earth to heaven said that; "Let not your heart be troubled: Ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also"(John 14: 1-4).
There is a land that is fairer than day
And by faith we can see it afar
For the Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling place there
O Jesus, Thou hast promised,
To all who follow Thee,
That where Thou art in glory
There shall Thy servant be;
O LET ME SEE THY FOOTMARKS
AND IN THEM PLANT MY OWN
MY HOPE TO FOLLOW DULY
IS IN THY STRENGTH ALONE
|
O guide me, call me, draw me,
Uphold me to the end;
And then in heaven receive me,
My Savior and my Friend!
This is the vision of heaven and testimony of apostle John
"And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there were also no more sea. And I John saw the Holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husdand. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be anymore pain; for the former things are passed away. And he that upon thethrone said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. And he said unto me, it is done. I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inheit all things: and I will his God, and he shall be my son. But the fearful and unbelieving , and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death"(Revelation 21:1-8).
