Many of us hear about heaven, and have a vague idea of what it will be like from the many media impressions, including movies, TV and writings.
What heaven will be like is a mystery, but the Bible paints image of the kingdom to come that is a snapshot into heaven itself.
Dr. Amy Sherman in Kingdom Calling categorizes the scriptures that tell of creation renewed that describe the kingdom into 8 categories:
Justice
Equity
Restoration
Shalom
Peace with God
Peace with Self
Peace with Others
Peace with the Creation
Have you ever longed for, or worked for or any of the above? In the days to come, we'll unpack the scriptural texts she uses to paint a picture of the Biblical preview of the kingdom to come.
In the meantime, we pray: Lord, Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done. On earth, as it is in heaven.
Amen.
