Episode Synopsis

What do you picture when you think of heaven? If images of puffy clouds and flying babies playing harps come to mind, you're not alone. But what the Bible tells us about heaven is very different. In this sermon based on Isaiah 65:17-25, Pastor Austin walks us through what heaven will be like and why it is something we should long for.  ----------------------------- Isaiah 65:17-25 New Heavens and a New Earth 17 "For behold, I create new heavens     and a new earth, and the former things shall not be remembered     or come into mind. 18 But be glad and rejoice forever     in that which I create; for behold, I create Jerusalem to be a joy,     and her people to be a gladness. 19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem     and be glad in my people; no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping     and the cry of distress. 20 No more shall there be in it     an infant who lives but a few days,     or an old man who does not fill out his days, for the young man shall die a hundred years old,     and the sinner a hundred years old shall be accursed. 21 They shall build houses and inhabit them;     they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. 22 They shall not build and another inhabit;     they shall not plant and another eat; for like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be,     and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands. 23 They shall not labor in vain     or bear children for calamity, for they shall be the offspring of the blessed of the Lord,     and their descendants with them. 24 Before they call I will answer;     while they are yet speaking I will hear. 25 The wolf and the lamb shall graze together;     the lion shall eat straw like the ox,     and dust shall be the serpent's food. They shall not hurt or destroy     in all my holy mountain," says the Lord.
