Having Loved Ones in Heaven Makes Our Anticipation of Eternity Stronger Than Ever

video - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

Last month I had a conversation over Zoom with Steve Silver of Men’s Golf Fellowship. Steve’s wife Sandy went to be with Jesus last December, just three months before Nanci died.

Heaven Isn’t Just Consolation, It’s Restoration, the Fulfillment of Our Deepest Hopes and Desires

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

We long for a return to Paradise—a perfect world, without the corruption of sin, where God walks with us and talks with us in the cool of the day. Because we’re human beings, we desire something tangible and physical, something that will not fade away. And that is exactly what God promises us.

What Happens to Us When We Die?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

Dead people don’t come back and tell us what they’ve experienced. But we can know some things based on the Bible’s explanations. We don’t just disappear after we die. We live on in another location.

Are You Looking Forward to the Earth’s Redemption?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

In my dialogues with lifelong evangelicals, I’ve found that a surprisingly large number apparently believe they will spend eternity as disembodied spirits. I sometimes ask, “You do believe in the resurrection, right?”

It wasn’t an accident that Jesus was born into a carpenter’s family. Carpenters are makers. God is a maker. He’ll never cease being a maker. God made us, His image-bearers, to be makers.

Is It Possible to Be Hyperimaginative in Thinking about Heaven?

In Heaven, Will I Still Share Life with My Spouse?

article - Stephanie Anderson

The truth is that while we are told many things in Scripture about Heaven (as Randy explains in his book), there are some details we are simply not given. We have to go back to what we do know for sure from God’s Word.

Do Those in the Present Hell Have Physical Forms?

article - Randy Alcorn

We know that people in the present hell are already suffering even though the resurrection hasn’t happened yet, just as people in the present Heaven experience pleasure even before the resurrection (Psalm 16:11).

Will Our Life’s Work Continue in Heaven?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

Because there will be continuity from the old Earth to the new, it’s possible we’ll continue some of the work we started on the old Earth. I believe we’ll pursue some of the same things we were doing, or dreamed of doing, before our death.

Should We Say, “This World Is Not Our Home”?

video - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

We’ve probably all heard it said, “This world is not our home.” I used to say it, too. It’s true, but it’s a half truth.

Will I Be Able to Live out My Dream of Farming on the New Earth?

article - Stephanie Anderson

It’s certainly possible that there will be farms and farmers to care for crops. In Genesis 1:28 God tells His people to fill and govern the earth. Good farming practices certainly fall within the scope of careful stewardship and will very likely be welcome on the New Earth.
