The descriptions of hell that I read, here and elsewhere, are always descriptions of life here in paradise, that only the luckiest among us have been able to avoid. Maybe it is they who write these descriptions, while others live them.
On the other hand heaven sounds, can’t avoid saying, dull and boring, and unspecific. What really happens there? What kind of hierarchy is there. If some human requests are granted and verifiable miracles happen on earth (as Catholics believe, and the Church experts verify or not), then how are decisions made up there what requests to grant what to reject, and what powers decide these things. I am interested in very practical details not some fairy tales.
There's a book called Heaven by Randy Alcorn. The author says that heaven really doesn't sound exciting when you think that it consists of sitting around on clouds playing harps. He believes pastors/priests should teach about heaven as much as hell so that people could actually be excited about what's to come.
He makes the point that where we go when we die isn't where we will spend eternity. Yes, we'll be with God forever, but as described in Revelation, His presence will dwell in the New Jerusalem, which will be on the new earth, remade after Christ's return to be even more perfect and beautiful than Eden. That's where we'll be.....home, only unimaginably better. It's a fantastic read.
Practical details about heaven and hell???..you really believe anyone, even a freeper, has those details and can prove them?
