I hear a large number of people say they are avoiding sin because they want to go to heaven.


My questions:


1. Why do you want to go to heaven?

2. What will people who go to heaven do?

3. Did the Bible say that eternal bliss is heavenwards only?


4. Do you have any scriptural backup supporting the doctrine that all good people will go to heaven?

5. What will happen to earth in the generic sense? From my check, God created the earth as humankind's home with his purpose for humans to live forever in it.

Although, the eternity on it was cut short by our first human parents, does it mean God changed his plans and redirected the eternity to heaven for everyone?

6. Where does the promise at Rev. 21:3, 4 apply? Heaven or earth? Of course, we know there is no death in heaven.

7. Doesn't it contradict the Psalmist at Psalm 37:29 who said the meek will inherit the earth and live forever in it, and Eccl 1:4 which firmly says the earth will remain forever?


Isaiah 65: 21, 22 also listed promises on what that new paradise will be like. One point he made is 'they will build houses and live in them, plant vineyards and eat its fruitage.' Does this apply to heaven or earth?

Jehovah's witness spotted pls sir read john 14, 1 to 5 and the account of the rich man and lazuraus

Thank you jare.

They are Antichrists who believe Jesus was angel Michael, so why would they believe the teachings of Jesus to His disciples that He was preparing a place for them in His Father's house?

John 14:2-3 (KJV)

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

So does God now stay on Earth?

If no, why did Jesus prepare the place for them but for them to be with Him in heaven where He also was?

Maybe they know better than Jesus who said that.

They don't believe sinners are going to hell which Jesus spoke severally about.

They also don't believe the righteous are going to heaven which Jesus also spoke about.

They believe Jesus is angel Micheal, yet tomorrow they'd go about and be claiming they are the true Christians, lol!

Despite how glaring their errors are, they are so sure of themselves that they speak the Truth, just as this one who keep peddling his lies about, but keeps falsely accusing those who know the Truth of being ignorant and giving the scriptures wrong interpretations.

May God have mercy on all dem JW Antichrists. Amen!

Your problem is mental.

An I surprised?

That was what Antichrists and the children of the devil in those days said of Jesus and His forerunner, John the Baptist. "But wisdom is justified of her children!"

If there are no clubs, drinks, girls in heaven, me not interested

1. You answered wrongly.

I asked if it was everyone who'd go to heaven. I didn't dispute going to heaven.


2. Rich man and Lazarus was merely a parable, and doesn't relate to what is on ground. It may surprise you to know Abraham is not in heaven nor does he have a prospect of going there.

Read here to see the explanation of the rich man and Lazarus: https://www.nairaland.com/6447675/misconceptions-hell-fire-thoroughly-examined

Please verify scriptures.

Also, try to do your research on things not just believing everything you are told! You have a bible!
Yes, I'm a Witness.

1. Do you know Jesus went to hell? I'm not sure you've read that verse before. Was Jesus tormented? No.

2. Did I say people will not go to heaven? No. You are paranoid.

I was expecting answers to my post if you think you have them, but as your forefathers the Pharisees did, you came the same way.
Read before you speak. You know nothing.

People will go to heaven as they labor the way they labor to make money and be rich like Dangote or Olympics champions. It's exactly the same thing..some will ask ..how?
1. Go to the school and seat and learn under anointed men of GOD like apostle Joshua Selman and Bishop OYEDEPO. Am sure of these two
2. Listen to the music of dunsin, pastor Olawale Daniel, Nathaniel Bassey and orenze Victoria
3. Evangelise by correcting in love,inviting people to church,praying for them and not urself, contributing half of ur fortune to enhancing God kingdom..ur church never see paint for years yet u cannot buy paint for them to do it..baba
4. Practice practice everyday. Stay away from corruption.unfollow naked women on Instagram
5. Gym gym gym by prayers and fasting and going on seminars

These few things will help u wear that beautiful crown at last..queen Elizabeth own is not near as beautiful as what awaits u. U won't miss ur grand mansion and all the benefits

They fantasize going to heaven to dwell in their imaginary gold-laden mansions their darling daddy has built for them, these are the kind of people hoping to go there.

Meaningless.

They preach the same thing we all know their counterparts preach. I'm not sure of them. They need to learn from me.

2. Listen to the music of dunsin, pastor Olawale Daniel, Nathaniel Bassey and orenze Victoria

Ok. What next? I'll earn everlasting bliss?

I have melodious tunes I listen to..that's wasn't made for the purpose of profit-making.

3. Evangelise by correcting in love,inviting people to church,praying for them and not urself, contributing half of ur fortune to enhancing God kingdom..ur church never see paint for years yet u cannot buy paint for them to do it..baba

Funny you. None of my church earth wide looks dirty.

4. Practice practice everyday. Stay away from corruption.unfollow naked women on Instagram

I don't follow them, let alone unfollow

5. Gym gym gym by prayers and fasting and going on seminars

Prayer is good. Fasting is not compulsory for salvation.

Okay, but I want to live on Earth...a paradise earth forever.

Did you notice in that picture only the church members are falling down?

Dem wan go heaven, yet they pray for long life.
Long life for what? On this earth which you call evil and sinful?
Their pastors tell them "Jesus is coming", yet they keep acquiring more jets and building more mansions. To what end? I thought all those things don't matter in heaven.

Fact is, 99% of Christians don't want to go to heaven, including their pastors. But since hell seems to be a less favorable option for them, they just have to agree. It's like being told to either remain in Nigeria forever or go to a core Islamic state in Iraq. They know this as a fact, but they don't let that thought echo, because they don't want their god to feel they're being ungrateful.

My questions:

1. Why do you want to go to heaven?

Because that is where God and Good is

"Our Father, Who Art in heaven"

Psalm 2:4; Psalm 3:4 etc

chatinent:

2. What will people who go to heaven do?

There is Nothing like His Presence!
In His Presence is Fullness of Joy
In His Presence is Strength that we need.

If you knew being in heaven is very very sweet, you will want to go there and never come back.

3. Did the Bible say that eternal bliss is heavenwards only?

Yes and No!

Yes, because that's where "Bliss" is and No because the "Eternity" you have in mind commences only after Judgement!

chatinent:

4. Do you have any scriptural backup supporting the doctrine that all good people will go to heaven?

If to you good has the same meaning with righteousness then see. Mathew 5:20, Mathew 5:8, Psalm 15. etc.

But if you mean the Domain of God called kingdom of God, then see Psalm 1, Proverbs 12:28

Nope, that is why death or hell is the "Holding Cell" (hell) or "Hostel" (death) for the inhabitants of the earth until Judgment Day and the destruction/ Recreation of Heaven and earth!

Please point out, the contradiction because it must be that you do not understand the connections or you refuse to understand!

So none of the commentators were able to answer the OP’s simple and direct questions? Instead it’s insults and abuses that seemed the appropriate response?
Pathetic!

If it was a question directed to Jehovah’s Witnesses now, I trust all my brothers will file out and drop numerous Scriptures because they are ardent students of the Bible and are skilled in using the Bible as a SWORD. Ephesians 6:17
But now the churchgoers were called upon to show what they have upstairs instead they’ve have shown that they are emptyheaded and cannot defend their faith properly. A certain statement made by Jesus reminds me of this situation with these churchgoers and “Lord Lord Lord” criers:
“A rotten tree(foundation) cannot produce fine fruits(results)” Matthew 7:16-18

Lol, these preprogrammed bots will still ask these same questions next week. They are ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Their gods have blinded them to the truth. Go and ask the 144,000 these questions. Or are none of your denomination members among?

You aren't going to heaven OP. You're going to hell.
