Thomas Brooks emphasizes that for an unholy heart, heaven would feel like hell due to its purity and holiness, which are contrary to their desires. He points out that while unholy souls may seek heaven for relief from earthly troubles, they lack the true longing for the divine presence and holiness that heaven embodies. The sermon warns that the company and activities in heaven are entirely holy, making it undesirable for those who cling to sin and reject God's ways. Ultimately, Brooks calls for self-examination regarding one's desires for heaven and the nature of one's heart in relation to God.

Thomas Brooks emphasizes the importance of valuing heaven, urging Christians to desire and long for the eternal glory of the heavenly city, which is filled with unimaginable treasures and delights. He critiques the attitude of many believers who live as if heaven is insignificant or unworthy of pursuit. Brooks reminds his audience that the eternal nature of heaven adds to its beauty and worth, encouraging them to seek it earnestly.
