Within the sphere of Reformed theology, the matter of varrying degrees of reward in Heaven, Punishment in Hell, etc., is an in-house debate.

i have not read the entire article, and do not know this particular author's view on the matter.

I'm going to have to read it & digest it first :)

Being an old curmudgeon, at first reading I can tell you that I disagree with the writer's concept of "inheritance" (as the word is used and defined in the article), but it doesn't seem to affect the main topic itself.

Hmmm...very interesting article. I have always been curious as to what "rewards" would be like in heaven. Why would we need them when we have "heaven"? As I have thought about this over the years I believe this author is correct, our reward is heaven itself.

While I agree with BTL that there is a hierarchy in heaven, it will have nothing to do with having more. I think it will be about serving more.
