Ray continues to read from The Indispensable Guide to practically Everything: Life After Death And Heaven and Hell. He will answer such questions about the two Heavens – now and the Heaven to come.

Life After Death: Final Judgment -The Decision That Determines Your Eternity
Here comes the Judge (God, the Father). Here comes the accuser (Satan). Here comes your Lawyer (Jesus Christ). How will your personal trial be decided? What happens if the verdict is “Guilty”? What happens if the verdict is “Not guilty”? What will happen to those who never heard about Jesus? Are there levels of heaven and hell?

Life After Death & Heaven and Hell, Chapter 1 – Dying to get to Heaven
Ray is sharing the book “The Indispensable Guide to practically Everything”. Ray is asked so often “What will Heaven really be like?” In the next seven days you’ll know the real answer.
Life After Death & Heaven and Hell, Chapter 1 – Dying to get to Heaven
25 Take Time With God: Disqualified for Heaven? Is there a sin so evil that it would disqualify you from ever entering Heaven? Is that sin immorality or impurity or greed or swearing or smoking or taking drugs or murder or ? Let’s take a look at the beginning of Ephesians 5 and see what God says about that. –Ray
Ephesians 5:1-5
1 Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children; 2 and walk in love, just as Christ also loved [a]you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God [b]as a fragrant aroma. 3 But immorality [c]or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among [d]saints; 4 and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this you know with certainty, that no [e]immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
Footnotes:
Ephesians 5:2 One early ms reads us
Ephesians 5:2 Lit for an odor of fragrance
Ephesians 5:3 Lit and all
Ephesians 5:3 Or holy ones
Ephesians 5:5 I.e. one who commits sexual immorality
I talked with a terribly confused man recently who spends most of his nights in a bar. I asked him if he knew Jesus Christ. He laughed and said “Yeah, I mention Him often. He’s one of my favorite swearwords.”
The man went on to tell me that he didn’t need to receive Jesus Christ as his Savior because he didn’t want to go to Heaven. He said he wanted to go to hell so he could be with all his drinking buddies there. His picture of hell was an eternal party with booze and one night stands with “hot” women. I asked him where he got that idea. He said he grew up believing it and all his drinking buddies believed it too. None of them wanted to die, but in their extremely human imagination they did want to go to their own conjured up pipedream of hell.
When I told him that the Bible describes a very different kind of hell, he said “I don’t believe the Bible. Man wrote it.” I asked him if he’d look up Josh McDowell or Ravi Zacharias on the Internet and just listen to them for awhile. He said he couldn’t be bothered with that. The conversation went a little longer, but I knew that at best I had planted a seed that could still bloom later in his life. What I was doing is called “witnessing for Christ.” Reliable statistics show that it generally takes seven times for various Christians to witness to someone before they wake up and realize they sincerely need to receive Jesus Christ as their Savior.

After these things I heard something like a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God;
BECAUSE HIS JUDGMENTS ARE TRUE AND RIGHTEOUS; for He has judged the great harlot who was corrupting the earth with her immorality, and HE HAS AVENGED THE BLOOD OF HIS BOND-SERVANTS ON HER.”
And a second time they said, “Hallelujah! HER SMOKE RISES UP FOREVER AND EVER.”
And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne saying, “Amen. Hallelujah!”
And a voice came from the throne, saying, “Give praise to our God, all you His bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the great.”
Then I heard something like the voice of a great multitude and like the sound of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.
“Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready.”
It was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
Then he said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb."” And he said to me, “These are true words of God.”
Then I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “Do not do that; I am a fellow servant of yours and your brethren who hold the testimony of Jesus; worship God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war.
His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself.
He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.
And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses.
From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty.
And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”
Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice, saying to all the birds which fly in midheaven, “Come, assemble for the great supper of God,
so that you may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders and the flesh of mighty men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the flesh of all men, both free men and slaves, and small and great.”
And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies assembled to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.
And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.
And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
This is a second teaching that Dr. Myles Monroe did on the subject of death. Killed in a plane crash a little more than a week ago, he and his wife Ruth entered heaven together, probably holding hands like they did so often. I can only think of the absolute joy those two are experiencing now.
We cry at funerals for ourselves and how we perceive the death of someone we love. We cry because we know how much we will miss them. Funny isn’t it that we cry while whoever died as a Christian is dancing around Heaven in sheer delight? If you are a Christian, you will be seeing that loved one again sooner than you think. Then you’ll both be dancing around Heaven together in the joy of your salvation.
I fully admit to a grieving process I have gone through this week after learning of the loss of a man I consider to be one of the most important men on our planet. I loved him. Dr. Myles Munroe opened his mouth and biblical wisdom came forward. Each of the 69 books Myles wrote have transformed multitudes of lives and will keep on doing that as long as books are read.
As humans who haven’t yet experienced what Dr. Monroe describes in this video, we try to figure out why God took this godly man and his wife so soon. Myles was only 60. But Isaiah tells us “God’s ways are not our ways.” God knows why Myles and Ruth’s time was up here on planet Earth. This tiny planet is all that we know. But God has adventures ahead for these two that will be so much more exciting and moment by moment fulfilling then anything they knew here in spite of how wonderful it was. No more alarm clocks is just one of the gadzillions of blessings that Jesus Christ purchased for them with His blood on the cross! Now the Monroe’s are discovering what “Amazing Grace” is all about.
Only those who don’t know Christ should be afraid of death.-Ray (0)
If one could run without getting tired, I don’t think one would often want to do anything else. But there might be special reasons for stopping, and it was a special reason which made Eustace presently shout: “I say! Look what we’re coming to!” And well he might. For now they saw before them Cauldron Pool and beyond the Pool the high unclimbable cliffs, thousands of tons of water every second, flashing like diamonds in some places and dark, glassy green in others, the Great Waterfall, and already the thunder of it was in their ears.
