The Catholic Church used to sell "Indulgences" that supposedly provided remission of sins and allowed entry into heaven. This practice has fallen into disfavour.
The early Christians believed that heaven was a physical place above the sky. It was easy to believe that there were pearly or golden gates. Now that we know what is above the sky, this belief can no longer be sustained. Christians now believe that heaven is a spiritual, not physical place. Gold, in the physical sense, could not exist in a purely spiritual place - although it is probably possible to imagine the appearance of gold in heaven. An atheist would not believe in heaven at all, so no golden or pearly gates.
The Golden Foretaste of Heaven was created on 2007-11-28.
Anything is possible.
No. The entire visible universe is physical, while heaven is not.
If there is a heaven then it is quite possible.
No, Earth cannot be seen from heaven as heaven is a spiritual realm separate from the physical world.
A:Heaven used to be thought of as a physical place just above the earth, so would have had physical limitations. Since the invention of the telescope, it can no longer be understood in those terms and is now thought of as a spiritual place or state. If heaven is real, it is simply spiritual existence and has no boundaries. Therefore it ought to be possible for heaven to accommodate all the people who will ever live.
big foot
Possibly, if heaven is real of course. And he is there...
The answer is yes! However, our thoughts will be without sin, meaning we'll never have a bad though or a lustful thought. According to the Bible, we'll be able to recognize people that have died before. Also the tree of knowledge heaven, and it would be kinda hard to gain knowledge without thinking. Well unless you were an evolutionist or something. They only pretend to have knowledge, but never really think! Haha.
Heaven is a definite place described in the Bible. Jesus IS there, but he is a physical being inhabiting heaven, He is not Heaven itself. Good question.
Uh ya
