Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Sally. This was an interesting read. In my Sunday school class, last year, the members wanted to discuss heaven. This was the approach that I took in teaching about heaven. Your description in the poem is very well done.
I wish you good luck in the contest.

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. It is very well written and easily understood. Yes, we have a promise given to us by God. We just need faith. Jesus paid the ultimate price for us. Good luck with the contest

Thank you so much for the lovely review, dear Barbara. Heaven is a broad subject for many and their is a host of misinformation about it I believe. I just wanted to share a small piece of what I believe to be true. It was hard to limit this to 500 words. Sending you my best today as always with many thanks,
Sally xoxo

Dear Sally, this is the most beautiful piece of prose I have read in a long time.

I love what you have written and have a feeling a great many will also feel that way. I wish you well in the contest - so glad I had a six left. You are a beautiful writer. Good Luck - Dorothy xxx

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
This is one of the most in-depth explanations of Heaven I've ever read, Sally. I love how you presented this and explained in detail each level. Your word choices are easy to understand on each level. The videos are great to add more substance to your well-chosen words, too. I enjoyed each one. (I wrote a poem about Comet SWAN). I love looking at the night sky (or reading about it). Every time I think how great and awe-inspiring it is to be able to enjoy it knowing that He made it for all. Best wishes in the contest. This should win!
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from Deniz22
I'm a little concerned with your remark about "metaphysical" in regard to our Heavenly state. Please assure me you know we will have resurrected bodies in eternity just as Christ has a body?
Philippians 3:20: "For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself."
Not looking to offend, just looking for clarification. :)

Thank you for the wonderful review and star shower! Please do not apologize for ever going back-and-forth with me, my brother. God bless you for your interest. Yes, I assure you I believe we have resurrected bodies in eternity just as Christ does.
-I Corinthians 15:53- 53. " For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?"
-I Peter 1:23- "for you have been born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God."
I see heaven as a spiritual world but a real spiritual world. We cannot be a part of the level of heaven in human flesh, only by the spirit. We are transformed into spiritual beings when we die or at the rapture. See I Thessalonians 4. Mortal flesh is corruptible, immortality in Christ is not. It is my understanding from the Scriptures that heaven is a perfect place, no sin is resident there since Satan and his followers were cast down to earth. (He is on a short leash though and reports to God. See the story of Job.) God will ultimately destroy Satan, create a new heaven and new earth, and all the places Satan once defiled with his presence will no longer exist. I look forward to the glorious time ahead with our resurrected immortal bodies and risen Lord in heaven above.
Sending you my best today as always and blessings in Christ.
Sally xo

Thank you. So you do see Christ as having a real body, which He explicitly taught, and yet He was able to enter a closed room?
This is important for a number of
reasons not the least of which was His promise He would raise His own body from the grave. God bless, Dennis
-
A see Christ as tramsformed. He had to be flesh in order to become the sacrifice for sin. Those who saw him after he rose from the dead saw his glorified body. I feel we will look the same, and in some way, recognizable, yet with glorified bodies, spiritual in nature--non corruptible. Am I correct?
-
Yes, I believe you are. I get a little skittish about this because many cults deny Christ only rose spiritually.
And Christ specifically said He would rise bodily. His bodily resurrection is attributed in different scriptures to all three of the Trinity separately.
And as others have pointed out, all Rome had to do to squelch Christianity was to produce the dead body of Christ.
So we anticipate receiving our new forever glorious bodies like Christ any day now, just as Paul did;
?Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed? in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.?
1 Corinthians 15:51-52 NKJV
God bless you, Dennis

It looks like our departure is imminent. All the signs in heaven and earth are colliding. We will have some good conversations in heaven, won't we? Sal :))

Comment from A. Louise Robertson
I wish I had six stars to give you. I LOVED this story and I particularly love the levels of heaven as you have described them. I have never heard of this explanation and yet it makes perfect sense to me. I, too, have been saved and I can't wait for the glorious day when I see Him.
I have already reviewed this- just stopping by to say Good Luck in the contest = I am voting for this right now!!!

I love your nonfiction piece about the three levels of heaven. You did a great job. I didn't find any errors during my read. I know I am going to that third heaven you described. Have a blessed day. Shirley

I love to hear about security in belief. God says we're to believe in eternal security in Christ; if He hadn't, it would not have been offered as such. He loves us with an everlasting love. Sending you my best today as always,
Sally xoxo
