Of course there are countless reasons!
Here I'm thinking it important to state 3 core points as I consider the matter:
Heaven is heaven because Father, Son and Spirit are there.
ALL saints, each one who truly believed and followed Jesus will be there for eternity.
Lastly in this bit of writing, it is heaven because the absolute, perfect and unopposed will of God is now and always is done.
Jesus taught His disciples to pray "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
In His literal presence there is no grieving nor quenching the Holy Spirit, none whatsoever not ever!
Thus these 3 reasons among so many more are why heaven is and shall be heaven.
It is one of the saddest matters on earth that heaven is considered a myth, that there is no God and of course doing away with hell is and has been a rather constant pursuit of those who like to believe there is some vague sort of heaven-like afterlife when our lives on earth end. The myth is is that our will ought to always be done on earth, or that it will reign supreme with no dealings with God.
The reality is that HIS will is being done in continuum where He and His people shall be gathered in eternity.
Christ-followers: Praise GOD Almighty for heaven our eternal home!
Jesus came, suffered, died and rose that we might be together with Him and His Own in heaven. He is omnipresent -in us and where we shall be when this old earth is gone, swallowed up in the will and timing of God's Own choosing.
As always, thanks for stopping by. -Glenn
