SA8E35 - Revelation - The New Jerusalem

Where do you go if you want to find out about the place Jesus is preparing for us? Do you go to the library, to the internet, to the book store, to a protestant preacher, to a catholic priest, to a muslim cleric, to a buddhist monk, to an eastern mystic, to a religious guru, to a palm reader, to a crystal ball gazer, to a visionary dreamer, to a returned-from-the-dead book writer? All of these may be more than happy to tell you what heaven or purgatory or nirvana or whatever they call the future is like; but are they right? Are they trustworthy? Is their description of heaven inspired? No! Who can you trust? Who has the authority to really declare the truth about our future?

The Apostle Paul was caught up into the third heaven, and he said he was not allowed to speak about it (2 Corinthians 12:1-10). Yet we have people today claiming to have been caught up to the third heaven for a brief period of time... and they are more than happy to sell you book in which they speak about it. And for some unexplainable reason, people are more willing to hear from them than they are to hear from God! How is it that some Christians put more confidence in someone's claimed experience than they put in God's inspired Word? It boggles my mind!

If you want to know about the place God is preparing for us, then I would suggest you look in the book that God wrote for us... the Holy Bible. The Bible has the only divinely authoritative and truly accurate revelation of our future home. And in this episode of Wisdom from Above, we go to the Bible to find out what God's Word says about our eternal home. I'd be honored if you listened in to this Wisdom from Above podcast.
