Glory!
Revelation 21:22-23 “And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb.” Romans 1:20-23 “For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal…

The Great Gulf
John 20:17 “Jesus said to her, ‘Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, “I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.”’” Do we have the slightest comprehension of the great gulf there is between heaven and…

Is There Life “Out There”?
Hebrews 1:1-2 “Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.” So, is there life “out there?” How many times have you heard this question asked, or…

Will it be worth it all, in the end?
John 17:5 “And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.” In the end, will it have been worth it all to have followed Jesus? Like Moses, who chose “rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin”…

John 14:2 “If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?” Do you realize that there is absolutely nothing more certain for the believer than heaven? It’s a place we’ve all heard about, but it’s so difficult to conceptualize. Some people just don’t believe there…
