John Piper - Would You Want Heaven Without Jesus?

[BritneyAddicted4EVA]

Agreed. :)

I would rather get rid of all my posessions if I could then having to go to heaven just to get a trillion dollars (this is just an example) and what not. Jesus is everything. :D

[ceraline]

All I want is Jesus. I don't care where i'm going as long as I am with HIM

[k0smon]

Sure we would!! Heaven is a great place to be. Listen to those who have had NDEs talk about it. Your family, your old friends will be there. No need to eat, you travel by thought. You work at what interests you, not because you need money. (No money in heaven). It is a life you have always dreamed of. No dust and dirt. It is always summertime.. See "Life in the World Unseen" (free download) to fill in the info the bible does not give you.

Would I want heaven?

Hell, no!!

It would be a nightmare of eternal niceness and grovelling.

Incidentally - in the Jesus Myth, he is the only one who went to heaven in his physical body! Have you thought about that? The rest of us have to make it through eternity in some kind of nebulous spirit outfit!

So JC is there in the flesh! How weird is that?

Why would any Christian NOT want to be with the one who created him or her, loves him or her so much that He did not send that person to Hell, but instead, left Heaven to live a hard life and die a horrible death to provide eternal life, and when in His presence, spiritually or physically, experiences a love so sweet and undeserved that it is far beyond what we can feel from anyone else?

Heaven´s about Jesus

[YamiKazeSora]

Jesus is why I'm going to Heaven!

He saved me! I'm waiting in hope for the day I will see him!

[rbright79]

Jesus Christ is what makes Heaven so special.

[810suited]

amen!

Nice tidy summary of 99.9999% of what is called `gospel` today. I just want the stuff, the life, the high's the victory.... want Jesus... yeah - ok, suppose.

Tragic.

[carryyocross]

anyone know the title of the full sermon I've been looking for a while and I think I and others would find it helpful if a link to the full message was in the info section just a suggestion. thank you for what you do for the kingdom of God

[hambone425]

He has a similar message to this called God is the Gospel, but I'm not sure if it is this one.

[carryyocross]

no I would not

[Adelina1389]

so true.

[AsTheDeer]

Hahaa! He's talking about churchgoers here in Bulgaria!
