Scripture indicates that heaven is not distant but rather... heaven is near in another realm.

Death brings release & removal from all evil, every tragedy & all difficulty. Death is not an enemy.

We are limited by our visual, physical senses; yet from the Scriptures we can readily conclude that heaven is indeed not distant at all. It is nearby.

The church is the bride of Christ. The kingdom will be the eternal celebration of the wedding of Christ and the church. We will enjoy rapturous celebration as the bride of Christ in the eternal kingdom.

There is a day coming when all of the suffering, all of the maladies of this life are destroyed, when we, in our glorified bodies, will live in heaven, on the new earth, eternally fulfilling God's ordained purpose for us.

It is only as we focus our thoughts on heaven that we will correctly interpret life on earth.

A magnificent restoration awaits us. Christ comes in judgment; then restoration.
