Bible Facts About Heaven—Sweet Home of Departed Saints
Our life here is "a vapour" (James 4:14), but Heaven will be our Home forever. Shouldn't we excitedly seek to learn all we can about our eternal abode?
As a small boy, Dr. John R. Rice witnessed the Home-going of his beloved mother. He heard her testimony in the last seconds that she could see Jesus and her baby who had died. But what we know of that blessed Home does not come from eyewitness testimony; it comes from the pages of God's Word.
Dr. Rice goes to the Scriptures to show us what God has revealed about the place Jesus promised to prepare for those who receive Him as Saviour (John 14:1-3). But this is no seminary course. Rather, we learn the blessed truths about the place, the people there, and our position in it.
