Stu tackles an uncomfortable question most Christians avoid: why would anyone actually want to go to heaven?Starting with 90s skateboarding culture and songs like "Heaven is a Halfpipe" and AC/DC's "Highway to Hell," Stu explores why so many people associate heaven with restrictive authority rather than ultimate freedom. The cultural zeitgeist has always celebrated rebellion—so why would anyone choose eternal submission to God?Using 1 Corinthians 13, Stu reveals the true nature of heaven: it's not about activities or autonomy, it's about being face to face with Jesus. Right now we "see through a mirror dimly," living by faith rather than sight. But in heaven, faith gives way to direct relationship—seeing Jesus face to face every single day.Stu doesn't shy away from the doctrine of hell, presenting it as potentially a place where people continue to reject God even in eternity, "gnashing their teeth" not in regret but in ongoing anger at divine authority. It's a sobering reminder that not everyone loves Jesus—and those who don't won't want to be with him forever.The challenge: if you find church boring or faith difficult, the issue might not be external—it might be your relationship with Jesus himself. Because when you truly love him, gathering with the kingdom becomes a foretaste of eternity.Part of our God, Why? series.

In this special episode on the For the Gospel Podcast, Costi Hinn sits down with Jeff Durbin to discuss eschatology from different perspectives. The conversation moves away from debate and instead explores areas of tension and common ground. The episode highlights how differing views can be addressed with clarity, honesty, and gospel-centered focus.

In this episode of the For the Gospel Podcast, Costi Hinn kicks off his new eschatology series by laying a critical foundation: before we explore timelines, tribulations, or millennial positions, we must first grasp the essential truth that Christ is coming again—visibly, bodily, and in glory. This isn't a fringe belief; it is central to the Christian faith and essential for our hope, holiness, and mission.
