Hi all here, there is much discussion of religion and the like here on GLP. Now this question is asked of anybody with an interest, and my intent is sincere. Once you make it to heaven, what do you do there for eternity, which is a very long time?
I have asked this question often during my life of others, and it is rare that an answer is given. The creation is FAR older than suspected, many trillions of years old already, with trillions of years before us still. What does one do in heaven for trillions of years????? Heaven is REAL, this is not about debunking Heaven. Could we have a serious discussion? There is huge confusion about the nature of God on this planet, and it causes people to kill each other over this.
I AM from Heaven. I am incarnate on this planet to serve the Father's will. I am from the highest realms, from Paradise itself, which is why I have "Paradise Citizen" under my avatar. Even though I have completed the long ascension to Paradise and and thus an "old soul" there are many souls much older than me, and I am yet in a way a youngster, because I just recently obtained my graduation and have found the Father, (called sitting at the right hand of the Father), I have much before me, the real Journey unfolds AFTER one has reached Paradise. I do have a career goal in mind for the next few million years of my life. Yes, you have careers in heaven. Quoting: Candace

Zec 12:3 And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
Psa 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, [and] all the nations that forget God.

I will go to heaven when I die or am raptured...
I will be with my loved ones and we will worship the Lord and do many fun things...see many unseen things.
It will be glorious--but mostly because my loved ones are there with me for all of eternity. It will be peaceful and full of joy. And beautiful. There will be animals there... |

I do not think that that Satan tale asnwers anything, it's only a tale that tells us what you believe, at best a figurative form of teaching.
As remarked beforre, there are too many contradictions in both the Urantia book and the Poenix Journals (also far form agreeing with each other, when it comes to models of the Universe) to take them seriuosly. |

1. we worship
Jesus said, "You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve" (Matthew 4:10).
2. we work
Adam was given work to do. It was not burdensome, but enjoyable and rewarding seeing the fruit of his labors blossom in caring for the Garden (Genesis 2:15). It was a responsible job, for God had made him the steward of His creation. We aren't told what would have resulted had Adam been obedient, but he was the steward of the entire planet and potentially beyond.
3. we serve
"His servants shall serve Him" (Revelation 22:3) in heaven and that he who has been "faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things" (Matthew 25:23).
4. we rule and reign
The real reason for our calling is to rule and reign as kings and priests with Christ in the coming Millennial Kingdom and after that for eternity. Genesis 1:26-28 and Revelation 5:9-10 are two Scriptures that confirm we were created for this very purpose.
When we say “rule and reign” with Christ we simply mean we will hold positions of authority (or levels of responsibility) that Christ will entrust to us. It might be authority over a country, over a state, a city, a town, or simply a housing complex. It will all depend upon our faithfulness here in this life.

Talk about Illusions of Grandeur.
So you are saying, once you die you spend the rest of your 'unliving' life in heaven? You seriously think you have a shape after you die? Do you even know what happens after you die? No one does. We really do not have people dieing and coming back weeks later going... 'WOW I WENT HERE... AND I SAW THIS...'.
Stop being afraid of death and sugar coating it with going to a better place. How is it better when your a ball of energy?
Ok, done.
Now you can go back to doing bad things, then ask for forgiveness. |

we are in a body in heaven, a real body that eats and walks but also is suspended from what we know as the four dimensions. I take this from the bible where a resurrected and glorified Jesus ate, walked, had flesh that could be touched ("Doubting" Thomas in John 20:27)but also appeared and disappeared at will. We are only a ball of energy, or spirit, until the rapture and then we are given glorified bodies in the air (I Thessalonians 4:17)
First Corinthians 15:52 says that "the dead will be raised incorruptible" and that those who are alive at the time of Christ's return for His saints "shall be changed."

Satan has two meanings. One is Adversary, which simply means ANY adversary of God or behavior in anti God ways. The other is of course the actual entity, and it was Lucifer who has been confused as satan, due to language and translation issues.
Satan was and is a real being, who followed Luficer and actually has returned to lighted behavior. Lucifer is no longer, he choose "uncreation" of his being. His plans and experiment failed, he caused great loss to the development of soul and mind on this earth and was in dispair as he observed what happened, and did not wish to undergo rehabilitation, so you can say he was tossed in the "lake of fire" already, because plasma beam weaponry destroys the soul.

Satan very definitely is a real, personal being, the fountainhead of all unbelief and of every kind of moral and spiritual evil in the world. He is called by various names in the Bible, including Satan (meaning, “adversary”—Job 1:6; Romans 16:20; etc.). Satan has an adversarial relationship with God but God does not have an adversarial relationship with Satan.
Satan rebelled against God: This was the original sin of Satan, rejecting God’s Word and trying to become God himself. He said in his heart, “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God . . . I will be like the most High” (Isaiah 14:13,14).
I know my bible. If you do like you say, then you will post scriptures to support your statements instead of toss out sentences with no backup. It's the God-honoring thing to do

Time is a physical 3D construct.
It only exists here.
Time does not exist in heaven, so you don't have to worry about finding something to do for eternity.
Time exists in some form everywhere BUT the Paradise Isle, which has NO rotation. And it doesn't officially occur on our personal heaven, the spirit realm around earth, because these folks do not live in physical bodies and do not perceive the rising and setting of the sun, but the higher spirit realms around earth do recognize and adhere to Nebadon time.
I for one would NOT like to exist in some sort of timeless bliss which is suggested by your post. It is NOT that way.
May I ask why you or anyone would wish to have a single life as falsely taught on earth, only to do NOTHING for eternity? Quoting: Candace
It is my belief that the destiny of any entity that chooses to exit their space-time recording (Book of Life) through the Door they chose to record during life here, is the ultimate KINETIC existence. Always newness, greater conciousness, more oneness with the Father, at an infinite rate, that will take forever by the way, while maintaining your individualism Self awareness and not "blending" into the One. No wonder no one ever comes back to... this.
Your eternity can be, by your choice, to remain in your recording. Alive now, time is locked but we are free in space, upon inversion (death) you are composed of what you have recorded (Book of Life), space-locked, but are time frame free to re-engage those recorded time frames. Just you don't have body anymore so you can't alter space (or anything in it). But this is you after you have died is that conscience you hear all the time, trying to tell you what you need to record. After all you know what's best for you. Especially the you after you have died and now know what's "on the other side". |

Actually, many us will spend a lot of time traveling back into famous moments in history. History has much to teach us still. Not what is written in the books but what is written in the actual lives and hearts of the people who lived it.
Work. Wrong.
Fun. Yes
Music. Yes
Art. Yes
Nature. Yes
Bodies. Yes, yes and yes.
Love. Always and forevermore.

The Door is what you must record at the intensity of being an Object, not just the level of hope or faith.
The Door must be real as the air you breathe. But to get the Door, you must want it more than the air you breathe.
Through the Door, while here alive, you will commune, if you choose and permit. Takes work to kill off all the distractions away from the focus.
Instructions are provided in the here and now, through such communion. Many keep trying to convert those instructions from the language of the Spirit into human words over thousands of years... and it just doesn't work. I'd say millions have tried. Some come closer than others to be accurate. Most not. Me either. I suck at this big time but I know what I possess (the Door) as millions of others do. |

Ohhh. "Duality". "Distraction." That explains it. [rolling eyes]
Yes. You do need scripture. Anything less is unacceptable. All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness;" 2 Tim 3:16
Satan does what is allowed to him by God, as evidenced in Job 1:10. However, what Satan is really asking is for God to remove Job's protection before attacking Job, since Satan already knows Job has a strong hedge of protection around him. How would he know this unless he already has attacked Job? The very character of Satan proves that he disdains authority and is not one who would truly seek permission. Job was hedged about by the Lord—Satan couldn’t get to him without the Lord first removing that protection. So Job asked.
Any other place you try to get to know God besides the bible isn't the truth and is human opinion only.

I'd rather cruise the universe in astral form, taking naps in the heart of stars, looking for inhabited worlds etc.
