There is a tension Christians experience—belonging to another world, yet still being in this one. What do you think of when someone mentions heaven? The usual pictures involve clouds, perhaps some gates, old men with beards, etc. While not containing exact descriptions, the Bible does give us some clear points on what the next world will be like. Most importantly, it is a real, physical place, where God’s people will be in the very presence of God. It is hard to imagine, very hard, but the Bible assures us it will be an amazing place, perfect in fact. This is the end of the process of restoration, seeing God himself face-to-face.
