Heaven is where God dwells. It is a specific place; a place of unparalleled tranquility and beauty. It includes the new heaven and new earth.

During the tribulation there will be a national turning of Israel to the Lord; they will walk in righteousness. ... God established an everlasting covenant with Israel and it will be of everlasting duration.

While we look forward to a new heaven, let's first consider the new earth, for the new earth will indeed be like heaven on earth. We will live on a restored earth.

God, through Jesus Christ, is the victory, and the renewed earth will reflect that glory.

Upon death the believer goes immediately into the presence of Christ in heaven, a realm far better than this earth. Heaven is our true home.

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

When we see one another in heaven, we will have beautiful bodies that will far surpass the beauty of our bodies on this earth.
