Heaven
Rex Yancey
Revelation 21:1-18
The apostle John was exiled on the isle of Patmos. He received a great vision there of heaven. I believe in the heart of every man there is the hope of heaven. The Bible says, ''He has set eternity in our hearts.''
1.Fairness says there is a heaven. It would not be fair for the terrorists and a saint of God to go to the same place. '' Shall not the Judge of the earth do right?''
2.Feelings says there is a heaven. The desire for life after death is the oldest and most insistent wish of mankind. We have nostalgia for Eden.
3.Faith says there is a heaven. John 14, ''Let not your heart be troubled.'' ThePsalmist said, ''I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Peter said, ''We are looking for an inheritance that is incorruptible, that fadeth not away.'' Pauls aid, ''If the earthly house of this tabernacle is dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.'' Job said, ''I know that my redeemer liveth and that in the latter day, he will stand on the earth and thoughthe skin worms destroy the flesh of my body, yet in my flesh I will see God.''
4.Facts suggest there is a heaven. Heaven is marked by God's presence. Adam and Eve walked with God. To be absent is to be present. To die is gain. The Father, Son, and Spirit will be there. Heaven is marked by the absence of grief. I have experienced grief and been with those who have for many years. V. 4 God will wipe away their tears.
-Death brings sorrow, shock and hurt. But there will be no hospitals, funeral homes, caskets or cemeteries in heaven.
-Job said, ''The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord.'' What a day that will be when my Jesus I shall see when I look upon his face, the one who saved me by his grace, when he takes me by the hand and leads me through the promised land, what a day, glorious day that will be.''
