Heaven is real and beautiful

Real and Beautiful

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Mathew 5:3


This hymn gives us hope.

We read of a place that's called heavenIt's made for the pure and the freeThese truths in God's word he has givenHow beautiful heaven must be
The angels so sweetly are singingBetrayals and failures destroyedAll pain and all suffering forgottenAnd all tears will be turned into joy
How beautiful heaven must beSweet home of the happy and freeFair haven of rest for the wearyHow beautiful heaven must be
The children were playing without sadnessThe women will dance without fearThe men will walk tall with honourOnly light, peace, and love will be there
How beautiful heaven must beSweet home of the happy and freeFair haven of rest for the wearyHow beautiful heaven must be
Fair haven of rest for the wearyHow beautiful heaven must be

What comfort is ours? what hope is in our suffering for the Lord if heaven is nothing but beauty, a place of comfort. How Beautiful Heaven must be. 


Many philosopher and men of might have talk ill about this destination called heaven. 

Men like Karl Marx famously described religion as the "opium of the people," arguing that it provided a false sense of comfort and hope, dulling the pain of social and economic oppression. This concept suggests that religion, including beliefs about heaven, serves to reconcile people to their suffering by promising a better afterlife, thus hindering their motivation to fight for change in the present. 

My answer to this is in the Bible it was said by Paul the Apostle he said: If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. 1 Corinthians 15:19

Another man who said I'll of heaven is - Richard Bach said "If perfection is stagnation, then Heaven is a swamp."


Firstly, perfection is a movement, a continuous effort to excellence. 

Secondly, how could he say this, that where the Creator of this universe resides is a swamp.

Just the earth alone is so welcoming. The blue seas and its beaches gives its own vibes. The earth can be classified as beautiful. How much more Heaven. Home of earth's Maker. 

Ignorant men seeking to paint God and his work as though it was evil, out of life's frustrations and fear of the great beyond.

Another man is Hawking the great physics - Stephen Hawking has this to say.

"I have lived with the prospect of an early death for the last 49 years. I'm not afraid of death, but I'm in no hurry to die. I have so much I want to do first," he said.

"I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark," he added.

For me, deep down I know that he knows heaven is real. Men that God has given the ability to create often think they are the Almighty. But forgets that if they ask humans can create inanimate things then there must be a Creator who resides in Heaven. Stephen Hawking made lots of blunders, due to scientific knowledge without scriptural evidence.


While other great men have spoken good about heaven.

Others like Constantine has this to say, He said that about noon, when the day was already beginning to decline, he saw with his own eyes the sign of a cross of light in the heavens, above the sun, and bearing the inscription, “By this symbol you will conquer.” He was struck with amazement by the sight, and his whole army witnessed the miracle. 

Constantine only had a vision not even the real glimpse of heaven and went on to believe and do the things that makes for heaven according to history.


Daniel Boone had this to say “O my dear honeys, heaven is a Kentucky of a place.” 


Although heaven has not been depicted well enough in any art or imaging, imaginary or realistically. Heaven is so bright and beautiful that the human eyes cannot comprehend. It has no shadow or sample here on earth. It's glory cannot even be compared to Daniel Boone view. 


Oh I love that song by Jimmy Swaggart it says Look for me: 

Look for Me - Jimmy Swaggart

(Look for me, for I will be there too.)

When you finally make your entrance to that city
Of Jasper walls and gold avenues
As you behold all it's beauty and it's splendor
Remember there's just one request I make of you

Look for me, for I will be there too
I realize when you arrive there'll be so much to view
After you've been there ten thousand years a million maybe two
Look for me, for I will be there too

(Piano Solo Break)

As you go down your list of firsts, there's no question
You'll want to see that day all your many loved ones
Is waiting waiting there for you
When you feel you've shared all your story with the last one
That wants to hear you tell just how you made it through

Look for me, for I will be there too
I realize when you arrive, there'll be so much to view
After you've been there ten thousand years a million maybe two
Look for me for I will be there too

After you've been there ten thousand years, a million, maybe two
Just look for me for I will be there too
(I will be there too)

Why Do Strangers Get Mercy and Give Gratitude

Image
This is about a stranger getting Mercy and giving gratitude. Lessons learned from the 10 lappers.  There is more to being healed. This massage struck me last morning when I was reading my Bible. For sometime now I have been reading the book of Luke's Gospel, it is such a book packed full of wisdom and exploration. I recommend you reading it with a concordance which brings more meaning and broder understanding of some not-so-easy to understand areas like most parable spoken by our Master Jesus. So, back to Luke. Reading from the KJV. In Luke  17:11 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.   17:12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:   17:13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.   In this verse, they cried Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. Have you ever been in a situation that, the on...
