For God sent the Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him (John 3:17).
Recently, I have had occasion to think about heaven more. I've wondered why God does not tell us more of what heaven will be like--perhaps more people would desire to go there if they had a clearer picture of heaven. We all want to go to heaven, but if the Lord is getting a bus load up today, maybe we will want to take a later bus.
I was thinking about this as I was reading the Bible this morning and decided that what is really important is not so much the destination, but who one will be with at the destination. If one is a disciplined reader of the Bible, then one will get a clearer picture of the nature of the Creator, Redeemer, Father, Brother and Friend with whom we will spend eternity. Anywhere will be Heaven if they are there. Anywhere will be hell if they are not.
The Christmas story reveals the nature of our God. I hope you spend this Christmas getting to know the One who truly loves you.
Our Father's Love,
Tom
