What is heaven for?
Who is in heaven?
Where does everyone go when they die? (Righteous and unrighteous)
(NIV) John 3:13
No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man.
Who is the Son of Man?
(NIV) 2 Peter 3:13
But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness.
(NIV) Luke 23:43
Jesus answered him, “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise.”
What is paradise? Is it the same as Heaven?
(NIV) Revelation 2:7
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
