Would you want to go to Heaven if all of your favorite things were there, all of your favorite people were there, all of the best entertainment was there, there was no pain or suffering there, BUT Jesus was not there? Would you still want to go?

Yes. My reasoning is this: if it is because Christianity is not true, but some other religion with a concept of heaven is true, and I have been allowed entry, I would be grateful. If it is because Christianity is true but Jesus must pay the ultimate price for our sins and take our place in Hell for eternity...then He has chosen to do so, and it would be an insult to him to reject his sacrifice. Again, I would be grateful.

5solas,
Wow. What a question.
I agree with the first answer that you got on this. I think that Jesus not being there removes the prophecy of Him being there. When it's all about believing God's word, it would certainly make things 'different.'
I would want to be with Jesus, though the idea of being with Him is still somewhat of a mystery as in: What would I be doing then? lol
I would want to be in heaven whether he was there or not, if that's where He wanted me to be.

If we were going there for material pleasures then we may as well stay here.
Jesus is what heaven is all about. Only with Jesus' presence can we be sin free.

I don't question. I have complete trust, Jesus might be off doing something he needed to do, like being the savior for the people on another planet somewhere it is not up to me to question anything God and Jesus does.

No, I want to stay on Paradise earth as Adam was meant to before he sinned and punished by death. Christ and his apostles resurrected people back on earth, none of them were in heaven.

If Jesus wasn't there, then it wouldn't be Heaven.
