Heaven is not something easily attained. Jesus' apostles were rewarded with heavenly life, but look what they went through as his followers. They were thrown in prison, beaten, and persecuted constantly thoughout their ministry. They remained faithful until death. The Bible says that "faith without works is dead." So a person must be more than just good to be rewarded life in heaven. There are many people who may lead a good and respectable life, but they do not believe in God. So not all good people go to heaven. God has promised us that a "great crowd" of Christians will be given eternal life here on earth. Jesus said that only a "little flock" of Christians would be rewarded life with him in heaven, to be a part of his heavenly government, which will rule over those on earth. Those who receive the reward in heaven will rule as "kings and priests" with Jesus. I have the hope of living here on earth in total peace and security.

I try not to worry about where I'm going after this - there's too much to concentrate on down here.
