Heaven is his home, but it cannot contain Him. He fills the universe.

Today's scripture references are 1 Corinthians 3:11-14 and Revelation 4:9-11.

This morning we continue in our serries on Heaven

We are challenged by Philippians 2:3-5. "Don't be selfish; don't try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourself. Don't look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had."Nate digs into how we live this out and challenges us truly look at ourselves in the mirror, are we truly living with the "same attitude that Christ Jesus had." This what it means to be a citizen of Heaven.

“Heaven is God's Home. He has invited us to come live with Him.” 

At the perfect time, God sent Jesus into the world. Jesus brought with Him the Kingdom of Heaven and He left it here while encouraging us to pursue, receive, proclaim, demonstrate and pray it. The Kingdom of Heaven is within us and we are here as carriers and dispensers of the robust domain of heaven, sharing it throughout the whole world before the end comes.

"Above all, you must live as citizens of heaven, conducting yourself in a manner worthy of the Good News about Christ. Then, whether I come to see you again or only hear about you, I will know that you are standing together with one spirit and one purpose, fighting together for the faith, which is the Good News." Philippians 1:27Nate breaks apart this verse and challenges us to examine our lives, to reflect on are we truly living as citizens of heaven?

The Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven, isn't just sharing about the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. It includes the presentation and demonstration of the nearby and accessible domain of heaven that includes love, peace, joy, healing and freedom to all receive and enter it.

But gives us hope knowing that "And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns." Philippians 1:6

What you sow in faith today speaks in heaven tomorrow. In Part 2 of Erecting a Memorial in Heaven, Pastor Corey Erman continues the story of Cornelius showing how a lifestyle of consistent prayer and giving can open doors for supernatural visitation and divine direction. Heaven is watching and responding.To support this ministry and help us reach the nations with revival visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RiverWPB.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or text GIVE and any amount to (855) 968-3708.

In the final episode of the series on heaven, Greg and Cory explore the eschaton—the ultimate end of God's plan, where Christ returns to renew creation as the New Heaven and New Earth. They unpack the biblical parallelism between Genesis 1-2 and Revelation 21-22, where God restores communion between Himself, humanity, and creation, fulfilling our deepest longings for belonging. Drawing from Scripture, the Catechism, and saints like Irenaeus and Teresa of Avila, they emphasize that our destiny isn't a disembodied heaven but a redeemed creation where we live bodily with God forever. The sacraments, especially the Eucharist, offer a foretaste of this reality, making Catholicism's physicality a compelling draw. Greg also references a prior standalone episode, Will We See Our Dogs in Heaven? (#319), for those curious about pets in the afterlife. Join them for a profound, hopeful vision of eternity that transcends clichés and anchors our faith in God's redemptive love. Support this ministry so more people can consider Catholicism!

Heaven remembers what you do in faith. In Part 1 of this powerful message, Pastor Corey Erman teaches from Acts 10 on the life of Cornelius, whose prayers and giving rose as a memorial before God. Learn how your obedience, generosity, and devotion make eternal impact and draw heaven's attention. “Your prayers and your alms have come up for a memorial before God.” – Acts 10:4To support this ministry and help us reach the nations with revival visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RiverWPB.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or text GIVE and any amount to (855) 968-3708.

Greg and Cory delve into the radical Christian teaching of the physical resurrection of the body, a cornerstone of Catholic eschatology that sets Christianity apart from other worldviews. They explore how the resurrection restores humanity to God's original design in Genesis, uniting body and soul as seen in Christ's own resurrection. Contrasting this with prevalent cultural and religious ideas—like Gnosticism or modern transhumanism—that prioritize escaping the physical, they highlight why the body matters to God's redemptive plan. Drawing from Scripture and tradition, they discuss how the incarnation necessitated a physical savior to heal our flesh, making the resurrection central to the Gospel. The conversation also touches on how Catholicism's sacramental nature reflects this truth, celebrating the material world God created. Join them for a thought-provoking look at why the resurrection is not just a future hope but a transformative reality shaping our faith today.

Episode 395 is Part 2 of Highway To Heaven (1984)   "Highway to Heaven part 2" When Mark Gordon's investigation starts getting too close, Jonathan must reveal his true identity and purpose to Mark in order to successfully complete his assignment.

Many expected the Messiah to come as an all-conquering king, yet Jesus came eating and drinking. Throughout the gospel, he was always going to, at, or coming from, a meal, and would even eat together with sinners and tax collectors. This highlights a critical part of Jesus's ministry, that of fellowship, or “koinonia” in Greek. By spending time with people, he allowed them to feel a sense of attachment and belonging, which is a far more powerful and genuine motivator than threat or force. Similarly, we should also embrace fellowship, and through "koinonia" bring light to the darkness in people's lives. --- Scripture: Luke 5: 27-33 Jesus Calls Levi and Eats With Sinners 27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. “Follow me,” Jesus said to him, 28 and Levi got up, left everything and followed him. 29 Then Levi held a great banquet for Jesus at his house, and a large crowd of tax collectors and others were eating with them. 30 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law who belonged to their sect complained to his disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” 31 Jesus answered them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” Jesus Questioned About Fasting 33 They said to him, “John's disciples often fast and pray, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours go on eating and drinking.” Luke 7:33-35 33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.' 34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.' 35 But wisdom is proved right by all her children.”

In Part 3 of this powerful teaching, Ps Kevin dives deeper into the nature and character of Heaven, revealing how its essence—light, justice, holiness, and divine order—contrasts sharply with the systems of the world. From the fire of God's holiness to the governmental structures of Heaven and the power of the blood that speaks, this message is both a revelation and a call to alignment. Learn why judgment flows from love, how the mercy seat reflects God's heart, and how Heaven responds to sin. This is a blueprint for those who want to live aligned with Heaven's standard.

Ministry without fatherhood is motion without multiplication. In this final installment, Prophet Leon du Preez brings a deep prophetic revelation on the character of heaven through the lens of sonship and spiritual government. Learn why most churches only touch the soul, how brokenness creates capacity, and what separates borrowed glory from authentic mantles. This message is not for spectators — it's for those who want to carry heaven's DNA. Prepare your spirit for impartation.

Greg and Cory explore the three destinations awaiting every soul after the particular judgment: heaven, hell, and purgatory. They unpack Catholic teaching on these eternal and temporal states, using Dante's Divine Comedy and Scripture to illustrate heaven as perfect communion with God, hell as eternal separation, and purgatory as a remedial journey to holiness. Addressing misconceptions, they clarify that purgatory is not a “second chance” but a purifying path for those destined for heaven. Join them for a vivid, accessible dive into what awaits us beyond death, grounded in the Catechism and Catholic tradition. Support this ministry so more people can consider Catholicism!

If you're one of the many people who think heaven will be boring, think again. Well, when we get to heaven, we'll be doing far more than sitting on clouds and strumming on harps. We'll be worshipping and working. But more than anything we'll be experiencing the eternal, uninterrupted presence of Jesus Christ, and all the joy and pleasure that comes with it. Stay with us now as Ron moves ahead in his series, “Heaven: The Father's House and My Eternal Home.”  

Back in the seventies, a man named John wanted us to imagine there was no heaven. Today, we'll see what a different John has to say. Well, contrary to the imagination of John Lennon, heaven is a real place. And according to the Apostle John, God will one day create a new heaven, along with a new Jerusalem. Ron gives us a glimpse, but only a glimpse, of this new heaven and new Jerusalem next. You'll have to leave the rest to your imagination.
