What Does Heaven Look Like? Revelation Chapter 4

Revelation 4:1 “After this I looked, and behold, a door was opened up in heaven; and the first voice was like a trumpet talking with me, which said, come up hither; and I will show you things which must be hereafter.” Commentary” Revelation chapter four is not the only place heaven is described in your Bible but a beautiful show here! Verse one is an introduction! A trumpet is used to announce a King! It is also used to announce judgments as in the 7 plagues upon the earth found in this same Book of Revelation! John is invited to heaven! Some of his reward for suffering under Caesar! What is the hereafter? Heaven and also the end times signs! Remember the Feast of the Trumpet in the Old Testament? The end times will bring the end of human rule and the absolute rule of Christ on earth after his second coming! History has shown us the rule of men has not gone well! Plagues! Wars! Famines! Death! Destruction! Persecutions of God’s elect! We can either trust God or man! Man will betray you but not God! He is faithful to deliver you out of all your troubles! When we are wounded by the sin of men we better understand the wounds taken on by Christ at the Cross for our sin! He was wounded for our transgressions! When these wounds were given to Christ for us he can promote us into his Kingdom! Forgive and love your enemies! Wounds inflicted by ourselves and others humble us! The Apostle John wrote the Book of Revelation while in prison! A prisoner on a remote Isle of Patmos working as a slave laborer in a stone quarry! He was placed on a rock pile! His night job was writing the Book of Revelation! John by vision was able to look into the future! We must do the same when the present days are so perplexing! God holds your future! Jesus said I go to prepare a place for you and I am coming again! There is a purpose in suffering! The Kingdom of God is a sacrificial system beginning with the suffering of God on a Cross for you! Either God or sin will control you! You can reject your sin and choose Christ or you can reject Christ and miss heaven defaulting to hell! It is up to you! Your future depends on one choice! Christ or the Anti-Christ! By the way Jesus talked more about hell than he did heaven! Why? He does not want you to go there! James & Hamsa Sasse. IndiaJesusLovesYou.com
