When you think of heaven...

Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

When you think of heaven...

Postby Fewrookies-From2kW/Love on Mon Apr 17, 2006 10:29 am

...what do you see? White clouds, people dress in white flying around with wings, a gigantic big fat dude with a long white beard dressed in white sitting on a bigo chair, and of course, our savior, Christ....or somthing else?

The question I ask is do you really want to spend eternity in such a place? I mean, it doesn't look like much to do there :lol: :lol:

But if there is a heaven, I think we'll like.

What do you mean "non existance"? If you're gonna spend eternity not existing, then you're not really spending eternity are you?

What do you mean "non existance"?

When the word heaven pops into my head, I think of the word non-existance. I relate heaven to that word. It's not the idea of non exsistance I relate to heaven. Meaning I don't think I won't exsist in heaven, I mean I don't think it exsists, capiche?

I picture that everyone will get new bodies, and we'll be able to look over this life as it's getting played out.

C.S. Lewis reasoned that for humans, time is like a timeline, going from point A to B to C etc. in chronological order. We can't skip ahead, go backwards, whatever. But if you think of the timeline of history as drawn out on a sheet of paper, God looks at the entire sheet of paper at once. There's no past or present, it's just all there, and God can move in & out of "time" whenever & however.

I think it'll be like that for us, too. We'll be able to watch how God's magnificent plan was unfolded through every single event of history, and we'll all have to pick up our jaws off the floor (if we have jaws :lol: ) in amazement :mrgreen:


And another vision of Heaven that I've had- a person is facing away from me, and they just got their new Heavenly body and so many other people are complimenting them, "Oh, you're so beautiful, etc." And then that person slowly turns around, revealing their face to me, and they look exactly the same as when they were on Earth! It's just that now I'm able to really see the beauty there...

cool thought 8-)

I think that's the picture media sends out to the people, so I don't think it's like that.

I think of the Western Conference Semi-Finals (game 7 Wolves/Kings) at Target Center. Webber misses the three and we all celebrate! I passionately hug Garnett and slip my hands down his waist and remove the sweaty waistband above his shorts. I nibble on his is hot, sweaty stomach as I move lower and lower...

Ahem...I mean, I picture some doves and shit.

Actually I looked it up on Goooogle and found these quotes from the Bible:

The wolf will live with the lamb,
the leopard will lie down with the goat,
the calf and the lion and the yearling [a] together;
and a little child will lead them.

7 The cow will feed with the bear,
their young will lie down together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox.

8 The infant will play near the hole of the cobra,
and the young child put his hand into the viper's nest.

9 They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,
for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD
as the waters cover the sea. ISAIAH 11:6-9


and

The wolf and the lamb will feed together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox,
but dust will be the serpent's food.
They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,"
says the LORD. ISAIAH 65:25

Yeah, I wonder where the media gets this image from :?

Hey Sac-1, what is the Muslim image of Heaven?
