Sermon Outline

2 Corinthians 5:1-9

This verse points out our two homes:

  1. In this body
  2. With the Lord

When do we get to be with the Lord?

Acts 7:59

Last week we talked about Paradise, or the present Heaven.

What is happening there now?

  • There is communion with God.Galatians 5:22-24
  • God rebukes the curse of confused language.
  • Relationships are restored to God’s intent.
  • There is no sickness.
  • Those in Heaven witness the earth.Hebrews 12:1-2

 

In what form are humans there at this present time?

Two theories:

  1. We are there, but like God, as spirit beings.
  2. We are given temporary physical bodies.

The only frustration we see in Heaven is found in

Revelation 6:9-11.

This is a glimpse of now in the present Heaven.

When do things dramatically change?

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

This is the rapture of the Church or the true followers of Christ.

It is proclaimed the dead in Christ shall rise first.

Paul writes about this moment when the Lord comes for His own in1 Corinthians 15:47-57.

Are you ready for Heaven and anxious for His return?
