“There are going to be tears in Heaven, because God is going to have to wipe them away. No doubt many of us will cry when we first arrive there and realize just how much our many mistakes have cost and lost. But God will wipe away all these tears, and comfort and encourage us and inspire us for the future, so we can forget the past. There will be tears, but thank God He will wipe them away with His joy. Then there will be no more tears and no more years, only a happy eternity!” YearsFirstsPastJoyLostHeavenRealizingForgetMistakeDoubtCryTearsInspireComfortCostEternityGods WillNo DoubtHeavenlyThank GodWipeForget The Past Author:David Berg

“In the long run the answer to all those who object to the doctrine of hell, is itself a question: What are you asking God to do?

They will not be forgiven. To leave them alone? Alas, I am afraid that is what He does.” GivingLongDoeDoneHelpingRunningPastSinAnswersHellObjectsCostDifficultyAskingForgivingDoctrineOfferingLong RunsForgivenAlasMiraculousWipeFresh StartCalvaryAsking God Author:C.

We pay for every change we make . . . and we pay just as dearly if we refuse to change.” IfsPastUniversePayMistakePrinciplesCostEconomicsRefuseOur FutureBasic Principles Author:Brian Herbert
