I may (will not) be in the front row but I'm guessing I'll find out in the near future. I'm Purdy good on keeping the 10 commandments in check.
I don't need ANYONE to talk to me and try to decipher what was written in scripture.
They read the same words I read.

I'm curious, and being serious about this question. Does the Bible actually say that when we die, that we go to heaven? I guess the first thing would be to establish, is there a Heaven? How big is it? 15 hundred miles long and 216 feet high Rev: 21: 16 ,22

Pretty sure Enoch got a tour of heaven Is it your thought that since Enoch was taken alive to Heaven that he will be one of the two witnesses who will be brought back to witness in Rev 11:6 and since he never died the first time ( flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God) will be killed and resurrected in verses 11 and 12?

Is that Heaven or just The New Jerusalem which is only part of Heaven? Yes and I believe it comes down out of heaven to the earth.

I belive that Elijah and Moses will be the two witness in the last days. They were both sure there at the transfiguration on the mount.

1500 miles long by 216 miles high seems awfully small for eternity for the amount of people that have been on the Earth thus far.
Maybe not a lot of people will be in Heaven.

If you are judged you are not saved. Only those not found in the book will be judged and then thrown into the firey pits! Didn't earlier post on this thread u didn't believe in life after deatg6 I didn't say I did believe in life after death. I just stated maybe there isn't anything. That doesn't mean I'm not a believer in christ. I am. When my heart was stopping and starting I had this sensation and peacefulness that is undiscribable. Is there life after death? We're all gonna find out but I'm with ya, I want to be prepared just in case there is!

Man, some really fantastic responses here. I’ve never read the book of Enoch.. pretty much because none of the Bible’s Ive ever owned never had it. Supposedly it’s been left out because no other books in the Bible can support it ( from what I understand, and there are those wayyyyyy smarter than me) . I do believe heaven and hades are very real.. Ive said to a few folks that I’d rather be on the floor.. eating crumbs at the feet of JESUS under the mighty banquet table.. than being in the eternal darkness. As mentioned earlier,,,, John Burke… who did a podcast… also has a book called “ imagine heaven “.. I’m about midway through the book and it’s really fascinating. Some of the stuff these folks describe are really interesting… there’s folks who have had really great experiences and there are those who went south…and they describe it as being extremely horrifying.
I really do recommend it… My dad’s last words just seconds before he passed was “ I’m ready “ he was definitely talking to someone,,, someone that no one else in the room saw. I guess I’d like heaven to be a little place in the backside of heaven,,, with a little cabin,,, a crystal clear lake full of fish aching to be caught…. All the hounds that I have had been lucky enough to have,,, and all my friends and family who I’ve missed or will be following me afterwards joining me.
Stand by your principles, Stand by your guns, and victory complete and permanent is sure at last. Abraham Lincoln

I think it's gonna be great and we will be with Jesus in the new heaven and the new earth.
And i will dwell in the house of the LORD forever!
That's enough for me. I don't get too spun up about some of the lesser details.
What from Christ that soul can sever, Bound by everlasting bands? None shall take thee From the Strength of Israel's hands.
