Home Sweet Home (poster)
HOME, SWEET HOME!
HAVE YOU EVER WISHED YOU COULD FLY?--Not just in an airplane or a helicopter, but on your own!--To glide through the air with the greatest of ease, just like a swimmer glides through the water! Well, the day is soon coming when such flying will be possible for you!
FOR ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE, GOD'S SON, JESUS, IS GOING TO RETURN VERY SOON, "in the clouds with power & great glory" (Mt.24:30), to save the World from total destruction. At this time, all of God's saved children will be instantly changed! They will receive new super-bodies that will fly up from off the Earth to meet Jesus in the air! (1Th.4:16,17)
WE WHO KNOW & LOVE THE LORD WILL THEN BE LIKE JESUS WAS WHEN HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD! He said that we are going to have bodies just like His! (Phil.3:21; 1Jn.3:2) After He came back from the grave, He was able to appear or disappear, walk right through solid walls or locked doors, & fly from one place to another with the speed of thought! (LK.24:30,31,51; Jn.20:26)--And we will be able to do the same!
BUT EVEN THOUGH OUR NEW SUPER-BODIES WILL IN SOME WAYS BE MUCH DIFFERENT FROM THOSE WE NOW HAVE, in many ways they will be very much the same, as was Jesus'. (Lk.24:36-44; Jn.21:9-13) Our new bodies are going to be able to enjoy all the fun things & pleasures that our Earthly bodies enjoy now!
AFTER ALL, IT WAS GOD WHO CREATED ALL THE GOOD FEELINGS & SENSES & PLEASURES OF LIFE THAT WE ENJOY! So in our new, powerful, wonderful, supernatural bodies we'll still be able to eat & drink & be merry, have fun, make love & enjoy all of the pleasures of this present life on Earth! And in our new bodies we will be able to enjoy all of these things to the full!--Even more than now!
IN FACT, THE PLEASURES THAT WE NOW ENJOY ON EARTH, WE WILL CONTINUE TO ENJOY ON EARTH!--Because we're not going to go to Heaven, Heaven's going to come to us! According to the Bible, Heaven is not just a fancy dreamland way off in outer space somewhere, but an even more amazing Dream City that's going to come down from God, out of space, to a beautiful renewed Earth! And God is going to come down & live with us, & we with Him! (Rev.21:1-3)
THE GREAT HEAVENLY SPACE CITY, THE WONDERFUL HOME THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR ALL OF HIS CHILDREN, is on its way down from outer space to Earth right now! The Bible gives us a detailed description of this great pyramid-shaped City of God, telling us that its base will stand upon the Earth 1500 miles long, 1500 miles wide, & its peak will reach way into space, 1500 miles high!--With plenty of room for billions!
THE ENTIRE SURFACE OF THE EARTH WILL BE CLEANSED & RECREATED into a beautiful New Earth, like the Garden of Eden! (Rev.21:1) The Curse that came upon man & the Earth when man fell into sin will be completely removed, & all of the cursed & poisonous pests & plants shall be no more! (Rev.22:3) All of God's creation will at last be at perfect peace & beautiful harmony with itself, & all of the animals will be the friends of man & each other, as God originally made things in the very beginning!
EVERYBODY LIVING IN THE CITY IS GOING TO BE SO GOOD & HONEST, LOVING & KIND, really loving the Lord & caring for each other. It will be the perfect society, the perfect community!--With everyone working & living & loving together in beautiful peace & unity, just like all the happy folks in this picture enjoying their Heavenly "Home, Sweet Home!"
THERE WILL BE NO DIRTY STREETS, no danger, no crime, no violence!--Not Sin City, like most of man's cities today.--But the Holy City of God!--The pure City, the beautiful City!--Everything clean & sinless & beautiful!
AND IF WE'RE GOING TO BE ENJOYING SEX & LOVE-MAKING IN HEAVEN--just like the angels did with the beautiful young women on Earth before the Flood (Gen.6:2,4)--why shouldn't we have children There too?--Born right in Heaven! I was thinking about it one day, wondering why the Lord made so much extra room in that gigantic Heavenly City, so I asked, "Lord, what do You need so much room for?" And He said, "Who said there weren't going to be more people born there?"--The perfect place to be born & raised, where all is safe & beautiful, with no dangers & no strangers!
AND JUST IMAGINE HOW WONDERFUL OUR HOMES WILL BE THERE inside of God's Heavenly City! The Bible says that the entire City is made of a beautiful kind of "pure gold that is clear as glass." (Rev.21:18) And Jesus promised, "In My Father's House are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you, that where I am, there you may be also!" (Jn.14:2,3)
JESUS HIMSELF HAS PREPARED A BEAUTIFUL CRYSTAL-GOLD MANSION FOR EACH OF HIS SAVED CHILDREN!--Where you & all of your friends & family & loves & loved ones can live & love & enjoy the Lord & each other & His wonderful gift of eternal life forever!--Wow! Won't that be terrific? And it's all rent-free!--Built & already-paid-for by Jesus!
IS THERE A MANSION IN GOD'S GREAT GOLDEN CITY WAITING FOR YOU? Reserve one now by receiving Jesus today! All you have to do is take Jesus into your heart, then you'll know that that Heavenly City is your eternal Home!--"The Gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord." (Rom.6:23)
JUST PRAY THIS SIMPLE PRAYER & JESUS WILL COME INTO YOUR HEART RIGHT NOW: "Lord Jesus, please forgive me for all my sins. I believe that You are the Son of God & that You died for me. I now open the door of my heart & I ask You, Jesus, to please come in & give me Your free Gift of eternal life. Help me to love You & to love others by telling them about You & Your love. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen."
GOD BLESS YOU WITH HIS LOVE HERE & NOW & A WONDERFUL LIFE WITH HIM FOREVER IN THAT BEAUTIFUL HEAVENLY HOME!
