It would be like going to church and never being able to leave. Singing hymns would probably get old after the first trillion years.
Can you imagine riding one of those hardback benches (pews) for eternity? My buttocks are aching just thinking about it.
That can’t be right. Jesus wouldn’t make us do that. Once my a** goes to sleep, it starts snoring.
Heaven, not.
Heaven is not going to be an endless church service. There will be things (work) for us to do and an new earth to explore, we won’t be sitting on fluffy clouds playing harps and eating bonbon’s, that is boring. The bible does not describe heaven that way either.
Now someone’s going to say, “TD, silly boy. Heaven’s nothing like that!”
They really have no idea what it’s like—in fact, people probably spend more time critically thinking an old-fashioned (pre-Obama) vacation in Florida than they do the actual experience of Eternal Bliss.
But if you want specifics on Hell, well, you’ll get a real earful; I think it probably involves fidgeting (forever) on un-upholstered wood church furniture, but that’s just me.
I would agree, if Heaven were a place with the concept of time (other than the fact that you're doing it while bonded to the infinitely awesome God Almighty).
However, at least I was taught that there is no such thing as "time" in Heaven - and we know from science that time is just a flexible aspect of the framework of creation known as space-time.
The way I was told to think about it is that you're your ultimate positive essence when in Heaven, and you're that while being in literal union with God. What does "ultimate positive essence" mean? Imagine you're Dwight Clark, the wide receiver in the 80's SF 49ers football machine, and you get hit by a falling piano, and get sent to Heaven. Perhaps your "ultimate positive essence" would be the timeless manifestation of this:
I’m afraid someone has sold you a pretty pathetic picture of what Heaven will be like. If you really want to know about Heaven, I suggest the following book:
