WHAT WILL IT BE LIKE?!
HEAVEN & ETERNITY #1

In the 1970s and 1980s, there used to be a saying that went something like this: Some people are so heavenly minded that they are of no earthly use…

We do not hear this anymore because the saying is probably not applicable today.  Perhaps the fact is that most of us are so earthly minded that Heaven & Eternity hardly cross our minds.  It is both sad and dangerous that many Christians today are just so caught up in our earthly day to day pursuits that we have forgotten that this world is not our real home.

Heaven, Eternity and the Blessed Hope ought to be one of the prime motivations in our Christian Faith.  Let us take a bit of time to ponder, imagine and anticipate…


IMPORTANT NOTES:

I started thinking quite a lot about heaven a few years ago.  I read some books and listened to some messages.  There are really not too much materials on this subject.  And because of this, perhaps many Christians may have got seriously wrong ideas about Heaven.  I think Churches should be preaching and teaching more about Heaven.

This HEAVEN & ETERNITY Series is not meant to be a theological discourse.  My hope is to provoke us to be a little bit more heavenly minded.  Indeed there are many uncertainties and controversies… which should not lead to dismay but rather excitement.  It’s like the excitement of anticipating a vacation to an exotic country we have never been before.

Please note that the photographs used in series are mostly not mine.  Some are downloaded from the internet, while others are from my friends.
