Jesus’ Testimony of Heaven

← All sermons

Summary

The sermon draws on Jesus’ own words about heaven, the dwelling place He has gone ahead to prepare for those who belong to Him. Because almost all of the on-screen text in this service could not be recovered clearly, the message is treated here mainly at the level of its title and theme rather than in specific detail.

What can be said faithfully is that the sermon holds up Jesus as the reliable witness to heaven, since He alone has come from the Father’s presence and can be trusted to tell His people what is true about the place He is preparing for them.

Essential truths

  1. Jesus testifies about heaven as one who has come from the Father's presence.
  2. Heaven is a real place that Jesus has gone to prepare for those who belong to Him.
  3. Because Jesus is the one testifying, His people can trust what He says about heaven.
  4. Confidence about heaven rests on Jesus' own testimony, not on human speculation.

Encouragement and challenge

Let Jesus' own testimony about heaven anchor your hope, rather than uncertainty or speculation.
