1.43. BODIES OF QUALITY
BODIES OF QUALITY
The features of all the people I saw in heaven were glorified and beautiful. Not one person had any scars, and they all looked radiant and handsome. I have heard people say, "Well, we are just going to be a vapor of smoke." No, you are not going to be a vapor of smoke. You will have a bodily form and features. The Bible says there are elders around the throne:
Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns of gold on their heads.
(Revelation 4:4)
The patriarchs in heaven are beautiful saints of God who have died and gone on before us. God has given them eternal life. I saw them as they will be when they receive their new, glorified bodies after the Resurrection. Saints, you will be unbelievably happy in heaven. When I was in heaven, memories of home were far away. There was no sadness there, no sorrow, no grief. I was delighted in the joy of the Lord and awed by His beauty. There was no darkness in heaven. There was only glory and might and power every where, especially as you neared the throne. The River of Life flowed from beneath the throne; it was beautiful and looked like a sea of glass: And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
(Revelation 22:1) As I was going, the angel said, "Come and see the glory of God." Saints, I was taken at a very fast pace by the angel to a place where the high praises of God and the music seemed to grow in intensity and volume. It was the most beautiful music you would ever want to hear. Sounds of joy and shouting were everywhere. The angel of the Lord said, "We are approaching the throne." I thought, "Oh, God, how glorious, how beautiful!"
