We don't like to admit this, but the only reason some of us want to go to heaven is because it beats the alternative.
Why
is it that we're not really looking forward to going to a place that
our faith says is better by far than where we live now? It's because of
the mystery factor. We're afraid of the unknown.
That's
why this study of Revelation 21 at White Pine is so important. It will
familiarize us with our true home, and make us more determined than
ever to live as pilgrims rather than settlers on this temporary planet.
