Grand Entrance!
"Then God will give you a grand entrance
into
the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ."
2 Peter
1: 11
Each year, the Cannes Film Festival brings the world’s
greatest movie stars to the French Riviera where they
walk down the famous red carpet.
What happens to the carpet after the festival is over?
It is cut up and made into handbags, hats, and slippers.
For a cost, You can have a hat made of material walked
on by the world’s celebrities.
You won't walk with the stars on a red carpet, but you
will
walk with the angels down golden streets. Various
translations render 2 Peter 1:11 in different ways, using
phrases like lavish reception, glorious welcome,
triumphant admission, and grand entrance.
Heaven is a place of ultimate rejoicing, a wonderful home
where we know all our brothers and sisters in the Lord. It
will feel like home, and its love will fill the air.
The fact that God
wants us all to live in heaven with Him
shows us how much He loves and cares for us. Thank Him
today that you can feel calm and safe in the knowledge that
He has provided an eternal, perfect future for us.
"Now, my fellow sinner, you are as welcome to Heaven
as Jesus was.
Your sins would have forever kept you
out; but on the accursed tree He took those sins away."
