When I think about the real world I think about how all of us live within walls. Some of us like the villians and heroes in this video clip need props and tricks to make us strong. Now I am not talking about things that make you fly or things that allow us to fight others. Instead I’m talking about the things we put around our heart to keep us from getting hurt or being out of control. Some people put up walls against God by saying he’s not real but do they really know that for sure. Others put up walls against God by blaming other people. “I don’t go to church because of all the hypocrites.” Is that God’s fault and what about it being something between you and God? How are you trying to go through life with thick walls and protective reactions and barriers against change for the better?
One of the pretty cool things that Jesus talked about was eternity. No where in the Bible does Jesus say anything about any place where you hang in limbo until you’re good enough to go to heaven. In fact there are only two destinations that Jesus talks about going to when you leave this earth.
When Jesus talked about Heaven he had a lot to say but one thing that really makes you think is the statement in the Bible that says,
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.”
In the video below Willy Wonka is taking kids into his Candy Factory for the first time. What do you think Heaven will be like?
So maybe you’ve heard it said that “Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life” and that “NOBODY” can get to God unless it’s through Jesus.
Is that right? Why? Why not?
