“The Bible's description of Heaven in Revelation 21 far exceeds the fictitious movie about Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.”
Chocolate is real.
I can eat chocolate on Earth and enjoy it.
Why would i give a shit about gold or jewels in the afterlife? What is there to spend it on? And will the shops take asphalt for debts?
"Heaven has gates of pearl and streets of gold”
Conspicuous consumption. I’d much rather wooden buildings, really. Dirt paths through old forests.
"Do you really think that God doesn't have chocolate in Heaven?”
To be honest, no, i don’t think god has chocolate in heaven. Do we need to eat in Heaven? DO we need shelter? Do we need protection from wolves?
“Do you actually think for one second that Willy Wonka's imaginative chocolate factory will be better than Heaven?”
Wonka didn’t make his guests or employees stand around singing his praises 24/7. So, yeah.
"Not a chance in the universe!”
Show your math.
“I know that there will be edible things all around us, if that's what you want, just as in the Willie Wonka factory.”
You know this. Why don’t i find your certainty worth a shit?
“You may ask how I know this. Romans 8:32,”
Will we ASK for gold? Jewels? Chocolate?
Why?
"God knows exactly what you desire in your heart, and what will make you very happy in eternity.”
Proof on Earth that hell is not just a revenge fantasy, and heaven isn’t just an empty promise.
"Jesus promised”
…to be back withing the lifetimes of some of his listeners.
Either it hasn’t been fulfilled, or he came back and only like three people qualified for the Rapture. Jesus took them home in a Pinto.
"The Bible promises that God will GIVE US ALL THINGS!”
Will he give you a wife to take complete control over?
A sex-slave who will probably still disappoint you?
“Is there anything too hard for God?”
