Kingdom of Heaven
God’s Promise and Heaven
The old year is gone, and a new year has begun. Looking back at the past, I feel like I have woken from a single night of sleep; all my days have passed by so quickly. This reminds me that the day when we will go to Heaven is drawing nearer. We must be so thankful that we have the Kingdom of Heaven. When Jesus came to this earth 2,000 years ago, He taught that Heaven and Hell really exist and told us to follow the path He had opened for us, so we could all go to Heaven. Then He set us an example of putting into practice all the teachings of truth during His life on earth. We,…
Preparing for the Eternal World
The Bible says, “As for man, his days are like grass, he flourishes like a flower of the field” (Ps 103:15). This shows how short and vain human life is. However, there is a new kind of life after our life on this earth; we are to return to the place we came from. When this life is over, everyone must go to the afterlife.

In other words, in our afterlife, there surely exists the Kingdom of Heaven, the spiritual world, where we live together with God. It is just that it is invisible and that it is hard to explain about the world. However, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him”1 Co 2:9 The highest dimensional space discovered by modern science to this day is the universe. With human…
Look Upon the Spiritual World
We live as pilgrims on earth, longing for the heavenly home. Being clothed in flesh in this visible and finite world, our hearts become easily absorbed in outward things, so that we cannot think of the spiritual world. When we indulge in physical things, we can not understand God's providence; we can't grow in faith, and even the faith we have will gradually cool down. Our forefathers in faith tell us that the invisible world exists and it is the eternal world. "So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Co 4:18 Most people believe the things that occur in…
