Whats HEAVEN like?

[chickenlipsRfun2eat]

Now, we all know now or have theories on what hell is like, well, bcoz of
that thread. ehehehe.

What about heaven? what would heaven be like?

I know its endless fun and love and all that stuff, but
what would you think It would be like?

The fact that God would say "I love you " to you woud
be, for me, the most touching and loving and happiest experience for me.
And none would replace it.

But that dosent answer my Q.
So, what Is heaven like?

I think Heaven will be us praising God 24/7. If you want to know some things about heaven, you should read "A Divine Revelation Of Heaven," by Mary Baxter.

I disagree. Of curse, we will praise God in Heaven, but that will not be all there is. Many don't relish the fact of praising all day, and God said Heaven would be paradise. This means that it will appeal to all people. Therefore I think Heaven will be appealing to men (in a non-sinful way, of course). Whatever you want, he will grant (provided it's not sinful). I think that you could ask for pets, video games, whatever. It is a paradise.

I think heaven is going to be just a very peaceful place where we are constantly glorifying God. Notice I didn't say praising him, because that, to me, means we would alway's be singing hymns and what not, which, your right, doesn't appeal to everyone; I think that everything we do in heaven will glorify Him, but it may not alway's be in the same way we do here (meaning hymns and such). Example; my uncle, dad, and their friend, would like to sail on the glass sea, because that's what they enjoy most down here, and I think that God will let them do that because it would bring them joy, and our happyness makes Him happy.

Thanks, I can't take credit though, I have alot of smart people telling me stuff...

I think it would be a place of our seperate creation, a place our sould creates to be comfortable at last and gloryfying God all the time from deserved happy place with comforts such as no pain and stuffs. My ideal heaven would be a beautiful cottahe in a meadow, with all my family around so we can glorify God. It would be a welcome respite from the pains of Fibromyalgia.

i would have to change my statments from before i was reading my bible last night and i came across a part where it talks of what heaven is like. it is in Revolations ch.4.

If Hell is complete and total separation from God, with torment and suffering, I'd expect it Heaven to be vice-versa. Just imagine, someone who was so far away from Christ that you care about so much gets baptized, or your heatedly worshipping God. That feeling- THAT HAPPINESS!!! that you feel, tears come to your eyes, you can't containg this feeling you want to scream out, glorifying God... because your soul is rejoicing with all its might, because God is with you, Jesus is standing behind you, hand on your shoulder, crying and smiling as you open your heart to Him, seeing another who will join Him... to live forever... in happiness and blistfullness... forever and ever... because of God's grace... AMEN!!!
Take that emotion, multiply it by the biggest number you can think of, multiply it by that again, again, again... thats the happiness you'll feel.

As for Heaven itself, words cannot describe it. Thats it. No human word or description can ever, EVER (and I mean EVER) describe it. I dare not go any farther, to avoid starting to cry. 3nodding

In Heaven, I believe we will be so caught up in the awsomeness of God that will want to praise Him. As for praising Him all the time, I am unsure about that; but look at one thing: We're all sinners saved by grace. We have been created for God's pleasure, so is not praising Him (one of) the least (things) we can do?

I don't like the way you put that, because not only is is unscriptural (meaning that it is mentioned nowhere in the Bible), it makes God sound like a cosmic giving machine.

Yes, the Bible does talk about the streets being paved with gold, and that there are many mansions, which Jesus went to prepare for us. What that is entirely all about I do not know.

To you, praising means "singing hyms and whatnot," but to God praising Him can be much different than what we think it is. Everything we do can be an act of worship (which is praising God) if we do it with an attitude that we're doing it for God.
