20: Look forward to going to heaven

He showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance ... clear as crystal. Revelation 21:10+11
The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. Revelation 21:18

Heaven is a beautiful place. The Bible tells us that the walls around it are made of glittering precious stones. Each gate is made of one huge pearl. Imagine a pearl so big that it is used as a city gate!
There is a wide street in heaven. The whole city and the wide street are made of pure gold that shines like crystal glass.

It's a joy to imagine what it will be like in heaven. But it will be much, much more beautiful there than we can ever imagine. We can look forward to heaven!

How well do you know the Christmas Story?

Where did the star lead the star-gazers? (1/10)

  • He led them first to Jerusalem and then to Bethlehem to see Jesus.
  • He led them to King Herod and then to Emperor Augustus.
  • He led them to the shepherds to whom the angels had appeared.
