John 14:1-7
Heaven is about having an eternal relationship with God
(1) Heaven is a place (John 14:1-2)
- Heaven is an awesome place because it's God's abiding (Genesis 28:17)
- Heaven is a dwelling place (Deuteronomy 26:15)
- Heaven is a healing place (Revelation 21:4)
- Heaven is a glorious place (Revelation 21:23-27)
@ Heaven is a place to worship, to serve the Lord, to fellowship with one another, to rest in the Lord, for us to explore
(2) Heaven is a prepared place (John 14:3)(Revelation 21:1-3)
(3) Heaven is a prepared place for prepared people (John 14:4-6)(Acts 4:12)
- No one gets into heaven by accident (John 14:6)
- It is only through Jesus because He is the only Way
- Jesus Himself made this claim
- The Fellowship with God was broken through Adam and Eve
- God promised us the redeemer and Jesus came for us to mend that broken bridge
- Therefore our relationship with God the Father was restored by the works of the cross
- Only Jesus Christ can forgive our sins, we cannot forgive each others' sins
@ It is time for us to set our eyes on Heaven (2 Peter 3:13)
@ Heaven is about eternal life, not just life
@ Things that we value on this planet earth will not be valued in heaven
@ Heaven is about timeline, not just time
@ I have more yesterdays than tomorrow
@ Therefore live life to the fullness for the glory of God
@ Heaven is about destiny, not just destination
@ Heaven is about the redeemer, not just the redeemed
** Fresh passion, Fresh Perspective and begin to fulfil God's purpose in our lives (Matthew 6:19-20)
** Let us walk through life with eternity in mind
