Do they really read the scriptures about heaven? Rev.5:10 and you made them 2 b a kingdom and priests 2 r God and they are to rule as kings over the earth.
So those who go to heaven will be rulers over the earth. If you are a ruler there has to be someone to rule over. Psalms 37:9,10,11,29 says that the wicked will be destroyed and the righteous will live on the earth forever. Matthew 5:5 blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. 1Corinthians 15:50 says that flesh and blood cannot inherit the heavens. So you will have spirit bodies. That neither eat, drink, have sex, or sleep.
Luke 20:35 They posed a question 2 Jesus about heaven. This man had a wife and died, according 2
Jewish custom his brother took her as wife. Seven brothers in all took her as wife and died. In heaven who is she 2 be married 2.
He replied this way. “Jesus said 2 them: “the children of this world marry and r given in marriage those who r resurrected neither marry nor r given in marry

I thought it would be interesting to see what Others think living in heaven will be like?

You are right...When John saw this vision, it was so awesome he only could describe the heavens and the ones there, in human terms, and what he was told to write down.
Yes the ones who are their now belong to a heavenly government, and will rule over the earth soon.
I must say this, very few will be resurrected to heaven...the rest will either survive the great tribulation without dying or be resurrected from there graves given a new body, the prospects to live forever on earth and be under the heavenly government that will rule over us in peace.

If heaven exists (it does seem unlikley) Then I doubt very much it is the harp-playing, floatey clouds, golden halo's type serene place it is described.
Each person's idea of heaven is different, therefore if a heaven did exist it would have to accomodate each and every person. The way Heaven is described in the Bible, is a fairly metaphorical veiw of it. Personally I don't want to spend eternity playing harps, and sitting on a cloud all day...So if that really is what heaven is, then may I be damned.
The only reason Heaven exists, in my opinion...Sorry that's not the right way to put it. The only reason Heaven was created, is so people have a comfort blanket. Think about it, how depressing would life be if you really thought that this was it, just this life and then poof you're gone bye bye, nice knowing you. People want the promise of eternal life, because (ironically enough) it gives them something to live for.
Personally I can live without Heaven, although it does sadden me from time to time to think that I may never see nor walk apon this earth again. But in the end, I give myself purpose by trying to better my life and the lives of those around me. If this really is just it, then that's what I'm going to live with...I'll make my own heaven, right here on earth.

St. John was once proper in a blessedly speechless universe. The Word was once now not most effective with God; it was once "GOD". But God is a projected image, we would say Oh My God, ;o))~ identical to my identify, my puppies identify, a can of soup we name tomato or chook noodle, those are all labels,strategies,and so forth. They do not outline who we relatively are. Who is honestly watching out by way of the ones eyes studying this message? Is it your identify or label? 'no'~ You are a lot more than your identify, you're the countless area among atoms. You are the essence that holds the name of the game to happiness and liberation! You have such a lot interior lifestyles, down-to-earth mystical energies past your imaginary ego's ideals. If you allow cross of the opposites that the ego brain creates among heaven and hell, you then manage your happiness. Just be within the unknown, that is who we're. The speechless Universe! Death is the dying of the illusionary ego, the "I", "SELF", "ME"... Thats the worry of the dying. Yes. Because the letting cross is by way of experiencing the dying of our separate self, and that's an excessively deep, profound dying. Very deep. Of path, it is a utterly illusionary dying. When we die, do you feel the self allow's cross. No, on no account. You will have bodily dying and nonetheless keep a want for manage proper by way of 2 hundred thousand lifetimes. The existential grip is felt bodily, however it is a lot deeper than bodily. As an illustration, think that you simply had an definitely convincing revel in that you simply, as you feel of your self presently, have been going to utterly live on whilst your frame died. This would not be a perception, it would not be desire, it would not be religion~you simply knew one hundred%. Would you be very frightened of your frame falling away and loss of life? Probably now not~ What individuals are frightened of is the "I die." But there are not any regulations how one unfolds. The excellent factor to do is continually be definitely, utterly, and thoroughly coming from an honesty with your self, a whole inside integrity. Don't preserve again whatever. If you doubt, then seek for the reality, until deep down you consider whole with something reply connects or resonates with you.

I believe the scriptures about the Heaven. Heaven is a place where we will be with God forever.
People have diluted ideas about Heaven because their focus or understanding is wrong.

It's pretty Simple, only those who have given there lives to Christ, repented from there sins, and trust in Him (Jesus Christ) as Lord and savior will enter Heaven. And God's Word describes it pretty avidly. He says we as Christians or followers of His Principles will receive new bodies according to how we lived our physical lives on Earth. And He describes what it will look like too-it will be beautiful beyond our current comprehension. We will reign in Heaven for 1000 years and then return to Earth to reclaim it. Pretty awesome right?

I guess they're blinded by their religious teachers. In the Bible all resurrection happened here on earth, not in heaven. Too, Jesus told his disciples to pray: "thy kingdom come". He did not say, 'thy kingdom go up'.
If God's kingdom will come; while many believe that they will 'go to heaven' where will they go really?
Just a thought

Anybody who thinks that Heaven actually exists has a distorted view of what Heaven is.

Heaven isn't sitting on clouds, it's a spiritual place where you are finally made perfect in the glory of God.
