Would You Be Happy in Heaven?

People who don’t know the Lord Jesus as their Savior will say that “they want to go to heaven.” A little thought would convince them that they are wrong. They dread the thought of meeting that holy God. They are not even happy in the company of a Christian who is living a consistent Christian life; they much prefer the company of those, like themselves, who are absorbed in the business and pleasures of this world.
No unsaved person would ever be happy in heaven. He would be there, fully conscious of all his sins, exposed by the light and glory of that place. He could not stand the searching light of the presence of a holy God, but would find no place to hide from Him.
How is it with you? Have you received the Lord Jesus as your own Savior? Have your sins been washed away by Him through His atoning death? If your answer is “Yes,” you are fully fitted for heaven and will be one of that happy company there.
If you must say “No” to those questions, then you cannot enter heaven, for Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” You are lost, and your destiny is the blackness of darkness forever.
But it is not too late! Our time, this little moment of time we are living in, is called the day of God’s grace, and He pleads with you to change your doom as a lost sinner to the happy life in heaven, His home, as a true child of God.
