Jesus spoke a lot about the Reward in Heaven. I'd say that among the most discussed issues by Jesus, in the GOSPEL, there are: 1) Reward in Heaven 2) Risk of Hell 3) Importance of prayer (and Lord's prayer) 4) Influence of Satan in this world 5) Jesus divinity and mission 6) Second Coming What are the most discussed topics by Christians today, if we had to write down a list? As you know, there are countless verses (in the Gospel) for each topic mentioned above, but focusing on the reward in Heaven, the question is: is it still an hot topic in your opinion? Is it often preached by "pastors"? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOURCE Here are some verses in the Gospel (in which Jesus always uses the future tense): "Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven:" (Jesus on basically almost all the beatitudes, Matthew 5: 1-12, Luke 6:20-26) "It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions." (Matthew 24:46-47) "Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 5:19) Parable of the talents or minas (Matthew 25,14-30 Luke 19:12,17) "Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father." (Matthew 13:36-43) "However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven." (Luke 10:20)
