Revelation
22- Heaven is For God’s People
The river of life courses through it. Clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of Go and of the lamb. The tree of life grows there. In the middle of the street, and on either side of the river was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits. Heaven is for God’s people. Those who have accepted Christ as Savior. The throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall sere Him. Those who reject or neglect faith in Jesus will never see Heaven. That’s unfortunate because Jesus died for the whole world. He is the only means of forgiveness and salvation, for He alone died on the cross for the sins of the world. And He alone was raised from the dead as a testimony of God’s forgiveness. One of the reasons Christians are so driven to share their faith with others is that they do not want anyone to miss God’s wonderful plan for eternal life in Heaven. Only those individuals’ who have accepted Christ’s sacrifice on their behalf, committing their past sins, their present life, and their eternal future to Jesus, will experience heaven. The time is near. We do not know when Christ will return to take His people with Him, but we do know that He will come. As we await His return, we must continue to share our faith with others, hoping to bring them with us to heaven. What a glorious future awaits us! We can excitedly say with John, “Amen, even so, come, Lord Jesus. Rev. 22:20”.

Job 19:25,26
