How Accessible Will Jesus Be to Each of Us on the New Earth?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

When I taught a theology of Heaven class, I was asked, “How accessible will Jesus be to us on the New Earth?” On the one hand, Jesus is a man, and man is finite and limited to one location. On the other hand, Jesus is God, and God is infinite and omnipresent.

Several years ago I shared on my blog about Christopher Yuan’s story of God’s grace, and his deliverance from homosexual sin.

Randy visited First Baptist Church in Leesburg, Florida, where he spoke on the subject of heavenly treasure: “You can’t take it with you, but you can send it on ahead.” He talked about having a right perspective on the things that God has entrusted to us, as well as the joy to be found in giving.

Is It God’s Will to Always Heal Us?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

The basic problem with the health-and-wealth gospel is that it is man-centered rather than God-centered. When approached from the prosperity posture, prayer degenerates into coercion, where we “name it and claim it,” pulling God’s leash until He comes through. We attempt to arm-twist the Almighty into underwriting comfortable, suffering-free lifestyles.

What Is the Good Life?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

People define the good life in different ways, but everybody wants to live it. After all, what’s the alternative? Living a bad life? A pointless, guilt-ridden, or miserable life? We’d all choose the good life any day, and yet we often don’t understand how to make it happen.

What Can Death Do to Us?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

“To die will be an awfully big adventure,” says Peter Pan. But it will be a wonderful, big adventure only for those who are covered by the blood of Christ. Those who die without Jesus will experience a horrifying tragedy. Of course, dying is not the real adventure. Death is merely the doorway to eternal life.

I wrote 50 Days of Heaven by selecting the material most suitable from my book Heaven for a devotional, then rewriting it in a different style. Why write different sized books on one subject? Because they’re designed to reach different audiences with varying interests and preferences.

Happiness: Good News Worth Sharing

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

Charles Spurgeon loved to connect the gospel and happiness: “There is nothing that more tends to strengthen the faith of the young believer than to hear the veteran Christian, covered with scars from the battle, testifying that the service of his Master is a happy service...”

How Mothers Shape Future Men

article - Abigail Dodds Randy's blog

I think this article by Abigail Dodds is wonderful. Having raised two daughters, I’m deeply grateful for our sons-in-law, and their families who raised them to be men of character and faith. And now Angela and Karina are the moms of our five grandsons, who they are raising to know and love Jesus.
