Give your best description of "heaven".
There will be a follow up later, but please address this request first.

It will be even better than the best time and place you've enjoyed on earth.

For me, that has always involved other people and animals.

[Alty]

If there is a heaven I hope that it's paradise, that I'll be with my parents and everyone else that has gone before me, people, pets, everyone.

Who am I kidding though, I'm probably going down. ;)

[Wondergirl]

I'm probably going down. ;)

Not so! I've already arranged for you to be my celestial assistant to clean litter boxes and cages, and to walk dogs. All supplies will be provided. You also will be in charge of making pizzas from scratch (alternate Wednesdays).

If I'm going to have to make pizza then I'm definitely going down. I think they frown on anything burning in heaven.

In heaven, all your faults will be removed. People will clamor for your pizzas.

Heaven:
A home for saved souls through salvation.
A never ending communion with God.
Eternity of bliss.

I can only put it in terms of what God has blessed me here on earth with.

I have had a hard days where nothing goes right and I feel near worthless, then I pull into the drive and the dog comes running at me joyfully, just glad to see me - that moment is heaven. :)

When I first saw my wife and again on our wedding day; the attraction, the heart flutterring, the mild hand perspiration, feeling light headed - that moment is heaven. :D

You ever do something good for someone - just help them out it makes you near cry - like at the end of those "extreme makeover " shows - that is like heaven. :p

The innoncence and just plain adorableness of an infant - that is heaven :)

Get pulled over - after awhile the cop lets you off with just a warning - that is heaven. :rolleyes:


I can go on. I think I will be all smiles, at peace, no dread, no fear, no worry, total contentment and eagerness to do good things - that is what I think heaven is. :D

Rivers of Magic hat #9 flow everywhere . Football being played all the time. Endless supply of Adidas sandals (with the foam fit) Oh wait that my house already.

This is pretty close to my idea of heaven. Only I THINK that my essence will only have those "feelings" without the need for the actual activity happening that brings on those feelings.

I said I THINK because there is not a living soul that can know for sure. More about this later on my follow up question. :)

I do believe we will enjoy activity in heaven though, productive as well as leisure activities. Man is made for activity. But yes, the feelings will be there in any event.

But I don't enjoy activity. (whine , whine:o)

#1 "Man" is made for activity. Man is a physical form. We leave that physical form behind don't we? It has a beginning and an end. It's the spirit that lives on. At least that is my own opinion.

#2 Productive and leisure activities? Do you think that is mandatory? I only do those things because I should move my body around for my health. You think I got to do that in heaven too? I don't care for any sports, despise exercise, and don't really want to be productive by working in any way. I was hoping I could be a bonafide couch potato without the guilt.

Maybe you will have that choice too. You can be in change of all the greyhounds.

Many people believe that heaven will be endless peace and not having to do a thing. Living life in paradise.

I have heard that we will all be assigned work that we just won't be floating around doing nothing. That there will be purpose to our work on the other side as well.

I also believe that Heaven is indescribable. Something that no words can truly describe. Limitless to what limits we have in this physical world.

That we will be with other spirits. There is many rooms in Gods mansion. Does that mean there are many different levels to heaven?

Not really answering, I do not care, but just saying my thoughts on heaven.

Heaven is all things at all times. For if god is allpowerfull and everywhere at alltimes then everything is his kingdom.

If I could describe it, there'd be no point in going. It'll be a surprise, just like hell.

Hell is no surprise, we're living in it now. ;)

[ordinaryguy]

If you think this is hell, you WILL be surprised.

[Alty]

If you think this is hell, you WILL be surprised.

After the week I've had, nothing would be a surprise.

I'm actually waiting for another flood, armageddon, I wouldn't be at all shocked at this point.

[ordinaryguy]

Sorry to hear that, Alty. Maybe hell will be an improvement. That WOULD be a surprise, wouldn't it.
