. any time you talk about the Lord, it is a life lr death matter.
. The story of Ken and Beth Perkins
. Soren Kierkegaard - "The problem with Christians today is that no one
wants to kill them anymore."
. The big elephant in the room for American Christianity is, "Where is the
persecution?"

Revelation 21:1ff
6 Things You Will NOT see in Heaven
1. No lack of beauty.
- like the beauty of your bride continually making you speechless 2. No need
for faith.
- Because the dwelling of God is now with men.
- faith has become sight
(sorry. I missed #2 - anyone else catch that one)
3. No degree of suffering.
- Rev. 21:4
4. No boredom.
- Rev. 21:5 - all things new... qualitatively BRAND new!
- not just us being weird little angels playing harps forever.
5. No emptiness.
- Rev. 21:6
- water is a symbol of life all through the Bible
- the woman at the well was parched
- "without cost" - there's lots of water you can drink in this world, but
yhere's a cost to it and it will kill you.
6. No unbelievers in heaven.
- Rob has done a lot of funerals where the family has tried their best to
convince him their dead relative is in heaven.
- Rev. 21:8
- It's not a question whether not you believe that Jesus is real. The
demons do that and shudder.
- Do you trust Him?
- parents, we need to quit farming out the spiritual formation of our kids
to other people.
