En 2014, Randy fue entrevistado en el John Ankerberg Show.

Earth is unique. It’s the one planet—perhaps among billions—where God chose to act out the unfolding drama of redemption and reveal the wonders of His grace. 

There’s no reason at all to think there wouldn’t be. What we see in Revelation 21 and 22 and, for that matter, in Isaiah 60, 65, 66 and other New Earth passages, is that you would expect people to do what they have been able to do—except do it better.

Where did sports come from? Who gave us the ingenuity to even create them as human beings? Clearly it is from God. We are made in His image. Satan did not come up with the idea of sports.

Someone wrote to me, “My children are hoping extinct animals will be in Heaven, maybe even dinosaurs.” 

My favorite Christmas song is “Joy to the World,” because as my wife Nanci pointed out to me years ago, it’s the Christmas song that looks forward to Christ’s return and the New Earth.

Are you desperately longing for Heaven? It’s a fair question.

Lewis on Heaven and the New Earth: God's Eternal Remedy to the Problem of Evil and Suffering.
