What's your take on Heaven? Will there be sin in Heaven?

[None]

Grace to you,

The answer is that sin will no longer be your nature. It will have completely been put off. You will be a new Creation.

Do you think God will still allow "Free Will" in Heaven? Because if he allows "free will," One would have to imagine that with free will comes the possibility of sin! Your thoughts please?

no, there will be no sin in Heaven...

[MorningGlory]

For it is in the tangle of our minds that we serve Him, and in our individuality that He must delight, since He went out of His way to make each of us unique.

Whether there is sin or not, I think Heaven will be quite a surprise to all of us.

I agree, horselips ( )! Sorry, your name makes me giggle. But seriously, He did go all out to make every single one of us unique and special (think of fingerprints and DNA) and I believe He did that for His own reasons. We will know why when we stand in His presence. And I am SO looking forward to the surprise of Heaven.

The premise of your statement is faulty. Man is free to do what he wills (I word it this way to make a point). Man in the unregenerate state cannot will to do good. By free will most imply that man can choose to do good as well as evil. This is contrary to scripture. Man cannot choose to do any good that would be acceptable to God.

To answer your question about heaven, there will be no sin in heaven. God cannot stand sin and will not allow it in His presence.

Cajunboy:::::Interesting......Also confusing? (This is contrary to scripture. Man cannot choose to do any good that would be acceptable to God. ) Could you first explain your statement in quotes. Then I would ask you to support you statement s above with scripture/verse?

Thanks for you input, but I would ask you to further explain!

Hi Cajunboy,

I would be glad to.

The idea that man has a free will that can choose good or evil is not found in scripture. The fall corrupted mans will as well as his mind. There is nothing of any value in man.

Ro 3:9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;

10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:

16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:

17 And the way of peace have they not known:

18 There is no fear of God before their eyes

Isa 64:6

very simple answer.... not much thought has t ogo into it.......

NO

there will be no sin in heaven..... God and sin can not co-exist....

light and dark can not be in the same place.....

love and hate can not share the same spot.....

after the 1000 year rule of Christ on the earth, satan wil lbe released for a short season, to try and deceive those that lived with Christ during the 1000 years......and there will be those that will turn from Christ.....

this is not heaven, but the earth that htis takes palce on.....

sin in heaven was cast out when lucifer decieded he was better then God.... and there will be no sin in heaven, not allowed.....

that is why the Word of God is specific to let us know who will and who will not share in the Kingdome of Heaven.....

Hi Mike, While I will agree with you to your "NO" comment, to say God and sin will not co-exist is not a totally valid statement. Allow me: Jesus is also God, is he not...God the son! Has Jesus stepped foot on the earth to not only be around sin, but HE also died in place of it?
