What will we do in heaven?

Contrary to popular belief, the Christian hope is for Jesus to return to the earth (Acts 1:11), for him to raise the dead (1Thess. 4:16; 1Cor. 15:20-23; the resurrection) and make his faithful followers immortal (Rom. 2:6,16), and for the world to then be made perfect (Rom. 8:18-21). Put bluntly, people do not go to […]

Who will be living on the new earth?

Jeremiah prophesied about Jesus as king (calling him a “righteous Branch”): 5 “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will raise up for David a righteous […]
