That horrible future is described in Revelation 20:11-15. In contrast to that sad picture is the description of the glorious future God has provided for those who come to faith in his son, Jesus Christ. That future was promised in John 14:1-3 and is escribed in Rev. 21:1-22:5. There we read about our eternal home in heaven. Heaven will be: I. A SPLENDID PLACE TO LIVE. A. The Beauty of that Place. Rev. 21:11-21; 22:1-2. B. The Vastness of that Place. Rev. 21:1,16. · Revelation describes the New Jerusalem, but also tells us there will be a new heavens and new earth. C. The Newness of that Place. Rev. 21:5. · “ Most people like to move into a new home. One day we will move into a brand new world.” John Phillips. II. A SATISFYING PLACE TO LIVE. · We live in a world where there is so much need and emptiness. There will be no unmet need in heaven. A. The Satisfying Resources. Rev. 21:6: I will give him the fountain of the water of life freely. Rev. 21:7: He …..shall inherit all things. Rev. 22:2: The tree of life which bears twelve fruits. Rev. 7:16: They shall neither hunger anymore not thirst anymore. B. The Satisfying Responsibilities. Rev. 21:7: He . . .shall inherit all things. Rev. 22:3: His servants shall serve him. Rev. 22:5: They shall reign forever and ever. C. The Satisfying Relationships. 1. With each other. Rev. 21:1 “no more sea” 2. With the Lord. Rev. 21:3. · A degree of fellowship with God that man has never known before. III. A SAFE PLACE TO LIVE. (Consider the different types of safety we will enjoy). A. The Safety from Suffering. Rev. 21:4 “no more pain.” B. The Safety from Sorrow. Rev. 21:4. “no more sorrow.” · There will be no more funerals, no more graves, no more hospitals, no more broken homes and no more broken hearts.” John Phillips. C. The Safety from Sin. Rev. 21:8,27. 1. Safe from the dangers of sin. (Murder, thefts, etc.). 2. Safe from the struggles of sin. Rom. 7:25. It is little wonder that after hearing this description of heaven, John wrote, “Even so, come Lord Jesus” Rev. 22:20. Compare this description of heaven beginning in Rev. 21 with the final verses of Rev. 20. (20:14-15). There are two paths in life that lead to very different destinations (Matt. 7:13-14). The path you choose in life determines your destination in eternity. Choose Jesus and the path to heaven (John 14:6).
