What Will Heaven Be Like? (Revelation 21: 1-4):
• God will wipe away all tears; Death will be done away with.
• There will be no mourning; No more crying; No more pain
• Isaiah 25: 8 - “...And the Lord God will wipe tears away from all faces...”
• Revelation 7: 17 - “...and God will wipe every tear from their eyes.”
Why Is This Possible?
• Revelation 22: 3 - The curse of sin and death has been removed by Christ.
• Ephesians 5: 25-27 - Jesus has purified the church
• Matthew 13: 49-50 - God’s angels will separate the righteous from the wicked.
Christians Will Be Glorified In Heaven:
• Philippians 3: 20-21 - Christians will share in Christ’s glory.
• John 12: 26 - “...if anyone serves Me the Father will honor him.”
• Christ’s glorification did not occur until he lived His life, died, and was resurrected. Our
future glorification will follow a similar path.
Heaven Is Eternal:
• Eternal life or immortality.
• Romans 6: 23 - “...but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
• John 17: 3 - Eternal life can only be achieved by knowing God and Jesus.
• 1 John 5: 11-12 - You must have Jesus, the son of God, to have eternal life.
• Revelation 22: 1-5 - Heaven described
In Heaven, We Will Be With Jesus Forever:
• John 14: 1-3 - “...that where I am, there you may be also...”
• 1 Thessalonians 4: 17 - “...and so we shall always be with the Lord.”
Christians Will Have A Clearer Understanding In Heaven:
• 1 Peter 1: 12 - Some have the mistaken notion that when we get to heaven, we will be
like God and have full and total knowledge. Yet, this passage indicates that the angels
in heaven don’t know everything. We must remember that no one is all-knowing but
God. But it is probably true that we will know much more about things than we do
now.
• Luke 9: 30-31 - On mount transfiguration, we can see that Moses and Elijah had
knowledge about Jesus’ mission.
• Luke 15: 7 - People in heaven know about activities on earth.
We Will Be Made New:
• 1 Corinthians 15: 50-53 - When Christ returns, everyone (dead or alive) will be changed
into a new spiritual body that will be eternal.
