There have been times when I think we do not desire heaven but more often I find myself wondering whether, in our heart of hearts, we have ever desired anything else.
C. S. Lewis
“Our minds are so much set on Earth that we are unaccustomed to heavenly thinking. So we must work at it.”
Randy Alcorn, Heaven
“When Christ died on the cross for us, he said, “It is finished” (John 19:30). The Greek word translated “it is finished” was commonly written across certificates of debt when they were canceled. It meant “paid in full”. Christ died so that the certificate of debt, consisting of all our sins, could once and for all be marked “paid in full”.”
Randy Alcorn, Heaven
“Let us not glide through this world and then slip quietly into heaven, without having blown the trumpet loud and long for our Redeemer, Jesus Christ. Let us see to it that the devil will hold a thanksgiving service in hell, when he gets the news of our departure from the field of battle.”
Missionary CT Studds
I am not going to Heaven because I have preached to great crowds or read the Bible many times. I’m going to Heaven just like the thief on the cross who said in that last moment: ‘Lord, remember me.’
Billy Graham
“The best of life on Earth is a glimpse of Heaven; the worst of life is a glimpse of Hell. For Christians, this present life is the closest they will come to Hell. For unbelievers, it is the closest they will come to Heaven.”
Randy Alcorn, Heaven
“Death … is no more than passing from one room into another. But there’s a difference for me, you know. Because in that other room I shall be able to see.”
Helen Keller
My home is in Heaven. I’m just traveling through this world.
Billy Graham
“Faith is like a bicycle. If you just sit on it, it’ll fall over. It takes forward motion to work.”
