QUOTE : Good question, and an easy one to answer. By focusing on the life to come. If the earth is God’s footstool, how indescribably majestic will Heaven be for all who end up there? “Not even the most beautiful house on the planet on the most beautiful beach can compare to what awaits us on the other side. “Mostly because the church has all but abandoned teaching about a final destination from our pulpits, we are perhaps the first generation of Christians who have lost sight of our long term goal, which is to finally go Home and be with our Creator. “How tragic! So many Christians are so comfortable and have become so deeply entrenched in this fallen world that they rarely give eternity or Heaven a passing thought. Everyone wants to go to Heaven, but they live as if they never want to die. Last time I checked, the only way anyone can go to Heaven is by dying in the flesh.
