God’s Word portrays a far different and higher spiritual destiny than the Christian candy-coated heaven of a Disney World Magic Kingdom with pearly gates, streets of gold, fluffy clouds, and chubby-cheeked cherubs strumming their little harps while huge choruses sing rock-n-roll gospel music and the saints practice rapping with the angels in a land of endless mountains of chocolate and candy where everyone has his own mansion in which to live in the lap of perpetual luxury, laziness, and non-accomplishment, catering to the lusts of the flesh while delighting over a vision of countless billions writhing in unspeakable torturous pain of an eternal lake of fire. What a HELL that would be!

Duane:
Did you ever notice at funerals the HEAVY EMPHASIS on "being reunited with loved ones" and "mulling over the good times they had on earth" and; and also:--- "Oh, they will see Jesus, too!"?

Did you ever hear at a funeral:  John 3:13 "And NO MAN hath ascended up into heaven, but He that came down from heaven, even the Son of Man Who is in heaven."?

"And I am sure he/she is looking down on us right now and smiling."  Ecc. 9:5 "The living know that they will die, BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOTHING...."?

All this and much, MUCH more is due to Ray and his influence on me.  I could go on and on with the misrepresentation of 'CHRISTIAN FUNERALS" but this is not a teaching site and I don't want to break the rules. :-)

Dave in Tenn:
Heaven:  To do interesting, productive and meaningful work without fatigue, justly and generously compensated and advanced, with wonderful co-workers and the perfect Boss.
