AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Corinthians 12:2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago--whether in the body I do not know, or out of the body I do not know, [only] God knows--such a man was caught up to the third heaven. [Luke 23:43] |
Bible Question (short): What's Heaven? |
Question (full): What is "heaven?" I get the sense that folks believe in a supernatural plane of existance to which a ghost-like being goes after death. The ghost-like being seems to be a translation of an human being sharing memories and aspects of personality with the deceased. After the return of Christ, those disembodied beings will be given glorified bodies, right? Where will they live? The Scriptures seem to me to indicate that the Earth will be made whole again as it was prior to the fall, so why do we hear so much about "going to heaven?" Are not the reconciled to Jahovah destined for a perfected Earth rather than to Heaven? Is the new Earth really the Heaven we hear people talk about? |
