* sigh* Just Another Day In Heaven

[Skwim]

Consider: you finally die and find yourself in Heaven. A year goes by and you start taking stock of your life there.




What is your day-to-day existence like?


What do find that's keeping you from being bored, day after day after day---like forever?

 

[psychoslice]

I just can't imagine it, no way babe.

 

[Dawnofhope]

We can't possibly know...

"The nature of the soul after death can never be described, nor is it meet and permissible to reveal its whole character to the eyes of men. The Prophets and Messengers of God have been sent down for the sole purpose underlying their revelation hath been to educate all men, that they may, at the hour of death, ascend, in the utmost purity and sanctity and with absolute detachment, to the throne of the Most High." Baha'u'llah

 

[psychoslice]

I think when we die that's it, all over baby, but if the belief in a heaven is what you need then go for it, just don't expect others to believe it, peace be on you.

 

[Terese]

It will be indescribable, not at all like every day mundane life we are used to. Being with God means something

What makes people think that they are all going to heaven?
There are only a chosen few going to heaven to rule with Christ. The majority of mankind will reside on the earth, where God put us in the first place. We haven't finished what God told humans to do yet. We have "filled the earth" with our kind, but we have not "subdued" it. There is much work to be done, in undoing all the damage man has done to this planet and to bring everything under control, cleaning up polluted areas, taming wilderness and desert regions just as it was prophesied in Isaiah 11:6-10 and Isaiah 65: 17-25. There will be no boredom.

 

[Jeremiahcp]

After seeing Heaven, I would have to visit Hell, you know see the sights, do some fishing in the Lake of Fire.

How do you know they don't have smart phones in Heaven? Heck, they may have better tech than us.

Thats right. Heaven is 10g forgot about that.

In Scripture Jesus Says:

"Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven."

and

"Why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but fail to notice the log in your own eye?"

It seems like a massive object to have in our eyes when we start playing God and saying who and how many go to heaven

How silly. In heaven you wont take stock of you life. It will be new every day. with no worries.

What is your day-to-day existence like?

Rev 21:4 gives a partial list. l Rev 20:15, may be the best result.

What do you think will be keeping you from being bored, day after day after day---like forever?

What makes you think it will be boring? No one is heaven will ADD.

WE don't expect you to believe it, we KNOW you wont.

Rev 7:9 - After these things I looked, and behold a great multitude which no one could count....

Heaven.....
- Unlimited bacon....it's calorie free too!
- You get the body of your choice.
- No pop-up ads in the free hi-definition porn.
- Futurama was never cancelled.
- There are no virgins because.....you know....
- French fries never get cold.
- People who were jerks in life all have "Kick me" signs on their backs...& it's encouraged to do so.
- Pie
- No car or motorcycle has less than 1000 HP.
- There's an amusement park where you can throw a ball to dunk Hitler in a vat of molten sulfur.
It only costs a quarter for 3 tries!

I've always seen it as an endless freeze frame from an 80s movie, a single moment of triumph where Judd Nelson raises his fist in the air, or Daniel-san gets on everyone's shoulders and claims his All Valley Karate Trophy.

Movies freeze frame because the moment after is a let down. Heaven never stops the freeze frame. You just raise your fist and yell "yeah, yeah, yeah!" At the top of your lungs forever.

If it sounds stupid, it's because heaven is made up.

I would doubt that the rules of time or experience apply in any place/state such as heaven-nirvana-Dreamtime-whatever...

Just throwing it out there that the Bible never says we go to Heaven...just paradise on new Earth.

 

[Skwim]

We can't possibly know...

Of course not. I'm looking for speculation.

What makes people think that they are all going to heaven?

I don't know of anyone who thinks everyone, as in "they are all," is going to heaven. Why the odd remark?

There is much work to be done, in undoing all the damage man has done to this planet and to bring everything under control, cleaning up polluted areas, taming wilderness and desert regions just as it was prophesied in Isaiah 11:6-10

Ah, this isn't heaven.

and Isaiah 65: 17-25. There will be no boredom.

And this is Jerusalem.

I would doubt that the rules of time or experience apply in any place/state such as heaven-nirvana-Dreamtime-whatever...

C'mon, play the game.

Whaaaaat!!!!! *scrambles for his bible*

Matthew 5:17-20
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 6:19-21
“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

2 Peter 3:13
But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

2 Corinthians 5:1
For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

2 Kings 2:11
And as they still went on and talked, behold, chariots of fire and horses of fire separated the two of them. And Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.

Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

I think the message here is pretty clear here: some people will end up there.

Okay: I'll spend the first few million years switching between practicing the various arts (sculpture, drawing, painting, playing music, singing, writing poetry and prose, etc., until I master them all. After that, we'll see about mathematics, the sciences, and so on...
