What is Heaven?

YOUTH NIGHT 



What is heaven like? Here are 7 biblical facts about heaven. It is …
  1. God's dwelling place (Psalms 33:13).
    • Psalms 33:13 - From heaven the Lord looks down and sees all mankind;
  2. Where Christ is today (Acts 1:11).
    • Acts 1:11 - 11 “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come backin the same way you have seen him go into heaven.”
  3. Where Christians go when they die (Philippians 1:21-23).
    • Phil. 1:21-23  21 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. 22 If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! 23 I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far;
  4. The Father's house (John 14:2).
    • John 14:2 -  My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?
  5. A city designed and built by God (Hebrews 11:10).
    • Hebrews 11:10 - 10 For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
  6. A better country (Hebrews 11:16).
    • Hebrews 11:16 -  16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
  7. Paradise (Luke 23:43).
    • Luke 23:43 -  43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
