Heaven

 

            
             What does Heaven look like to our eyes? Is it made of gold? Silver? Is it a city or a garden? Many people wonder about this and come to the same conclusion. We"ll find out when we get there. But for now we can just make guesses and images in our heads. A poll was conducted, in Newsweek, entitled "Visions of Heaven." It said 76% of Americans believe in Heaven; and of those 71% believe it's an actual place that you will go to live. 19% believe Heaven looks like a garden. 13% believe Heaven looks like a city. And last 17% believe it's just real, they don't have a guess on what Heaven looks like. My pastor told us to close our eyes and imagine what Heaven looks like. I imagine a city made of gold and people walking around, praising God. I can't wait to get there and find out What Heaven really looks like.
             Imagine Heaven. What will Heaven be like? Many people ask do we keep our bodies when we go to Heaven? Will I recognize my family and friends? Will I still be married? But perhaps the most asked question is How do I get there? Newsweek says that 75% of Americans believe that if they"re good enough they"ll get to go. Entrance, into Heaven, to them is base on how good a person is in this life. Kind of like a balance sheet. But what's interesting is that Jesus stated, very clearly, that the standard for getting into Heaven is perfection. So if you went by that 75% of Americans we"re not getting in, no matter how good of a person you may think you are, no entrance. This standard is something we can't do on our own, because there is only one way to become perfect in our world, there is only one way to Heaven, to give your life over to Jesus Christ. If you accept Him as your Savior and accept the forgiveness that he offers us then you are perfect. Jesus took out all your sins and now you are perfect. So what will Heaven be like? Perfect. There will be no more pain, no more tears, and no more death. As for the questions up above I look forward for those answers.
