Today we will be dealing with 30 Bible verses that describe heaven. When Jesus was leaving, he said to his Apostles, I’m going to prepare a place for you. Heaven is the place where Christ promised to prepare for us. As it is, heaven is the last hope of our salvation. This is a place where there is complete fairness and balance. Every man is treated equally.
According to the scripture, heaven is also known as paradise. It is a city that is glamorously designed with matchless sophistication. If you have imagined any beautiful city in the world, you have imagined what heaven looks like.
It is important to make heaven, especially as believers. The scripture recorded that heaven is the place that God has prepared for His people. While hell is a place the devil and his angels reside. Heaven and hell are both eternal. So you have a choice to make whether to spend eternity in paradise or hell.
For what it is worth, it would be nice if we all make heaven. Perhaps if you get a perfect description of what heaven looks like, it might increase your desire to be in that city. Imagine a city made with crystal gold. Imagine a community where the sun doesn’t shine nor does the moon. The light of the city is illuminating it emanates from an everlasting source.
