“Heaven and hell may be a figment of imagination and a myth for a non-believer but they are quite effective in keeping people on the right track.

Because heavens are simply Belief System Territories, I suggest that you consider the possibility that there is far more out there than any heaven you might try to imagine from this side, by Jozef.”

“The best way to get to heaven is to take it with you.”

Heaven

Author:Henry Drummond

“[Heaven] is not something other than this world; it is this world as it is perfectly offered now in the land of the Trinity. It is all the moments of time and all the conjunctions of space as Christ holds them reconciled for the praise of the glory of the Father's grace. And it is all of them held for our endless exploration of their depths - depths which we, even at our best, even at the moment of seeing the beloved's eyes, have only just begun to suspect.”

“The man wandered over to the table, crinkling his face. He still put on his old man look, from which he had when he died. "The last thing I remember I was shearing some sheep and . . . wait . . . I was choking on some wool." His hand went to his throat as if he still had it in there and his mouth gaped open in shock.”

“The city of Heaven is the biggest city in all existence. Even down town is greater than all the cities of Earth put together. The land is made of clouds, and the sky is always blue. In the center of the city is a massive temple, the temple of God. Supposedly God sites on a throne in there, but not many angels have been.”
