What is heaven? Who goes to heaven? Consider these quotes:
“Heaven means to be one with God.” -Confucius
“We may be surprised at the people we find in heaven. God has a soft spot for sinners. His standards are quite low.” -Desmond Tutu
“Ask yourself whether the dream of heaven and greatness should be waiting for us in our graves – or whether it should be ours here and now and on this earth.” -Ayn Rand
“All religions must be tolerated…for every man must get to heaven in his own way.” -Epictetus
“The kingdom of heaven is a condition of the heart – not something that comes upon the earth or after death.” -Nietzsche
“Heaven will be inherited by every man who has heaven in his soul.” -Henry Ward Beecher
I personally believe every one of these statements to be false. The entire world has their own conceptions on what heaven is and who goes there. By faith I believe this one to be true:
“Truly, truly, I say to you unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” -Jesus Christ
