Q84: Is Heaven Real?

The full question was actually: "Is heaven real - really, truly, honestly?"

Yes! Jesus said it was and no lies were ever told by Him!

Many civilizations have given much attention to heaven. I think the Egyptian Pharaoh’s spent more money than most on it with their pyramids and all the decorations as well as treasure. None of them had anybody to tell them about it - but we have.

Jesus spoke of it often. Jesus said that He came from there: “For I have come down from heaven, not to do my will but to do the will of Him (God) who sent Me.” (John 6:38).

When the Lord’s disciples said: ‘Teach us to pray?’ Jesus began with: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.” and: “... Yhy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.”

(Matthew 6: 9) Note that Jesus said our Father not just His Father.

And later: “ Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.” (Mt.19:14).

Jesus spoke of heaven often and with authority! Nobody else ever has.
