Day 30 | What Will Eternity Be Like?

1 Corinthians 2:9, “However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” — the things God has prepared for those who love him.”

Eternity will be spent with Jesus upon the new earth in unimaginable bliss.  The Bible teaches that we will see Jesus face-to-face and know Him as we know ourselves, 1 Corinthians 13:12.  This unending union with Christ will bring about the fullness of joy and pleasures without end, Psalm 16:11.

After our bodies die we will wait in heaven until Jesus returns to earth to destroy the Anti-Christ and his army, Revelation 19:11-21.  When Jesus comes back He will then set up an earthly kingdom to rule for 1,000 years.  Christians will receive a resurrected body and rule as kings and priests with Him over the people left alive after Armageddon, Revelation 20:1-6.  During this time the Devil and his demons will be bound and cast into a pit.

After the thousand-year reign Jesus will judge all creation (humans, angels, the Devil, etc) from a Great White Throne.  From there he will reward those who have served Him and cast into the lake of fire those who rejected Him along with the Devil and his demons.  Thus, the lake of fire will be the final place for all the disobedient, Revelation 20:11-15.

Then after the final judgment Jesus will remake the heavens (universe) and earth for people to dwell in.  Then for all of eternity we will be His children and He will be our God, Revelation 21:3.  Thus, the Bible teaches the Father and Son will share a throne next to each other in “New Jerusalem” and the Holy Spirit will be a tangible river following from the throne and His presence will be experienced everywhere we go, Revelation 21:1-5.
