Heavenly Conundrums (poem)

Everybody wants to go to Heaven,

But nobody wants to die to get there.’

About Heaven, there’re some kinks in our thinking,

Points in our reasoning where we may stumble.

Like kinks in a chain, let’s call it, ‘kinked think-kink’.

Can you recognize your thoughts that seem muddled?

Heavenly conundrums...

• Since evil will keep us out, we think ‘good’ will get us in. It won’t.
• We all wanna go there, but fearfully resist getting in when our ‘ride’ shows up.
• We love democratic freedoms, yet look forward to serving a global, iron-rod monarch!
• We wanna go to Heaven, but all of Heaven plans on coming to Earth!
• We rely heavily on Earth’ GPS to get us where we’re going, yet we shun Heaven’s GPS (God’s Prescription for Sin) to get us there.
• We insist on knowing where we are down here, yet long to go where we don’t know, other than ...somewhere up there.
• We anticipate Heaven, yet procrastinate in doing what it takes to get in.
• We love Earth’s multi-colored rainbows, but are unaware of Heaven’s uni-colored rainbow.
• We enjoy having sex, yet wanna go to where they’re having none!!!
• We fear ghosts and spooky things, yet want to be filled with The Holy Ghost, and do what some regard as kooky things.
• We want Heaven to wash our sins away, yet we’re grovel on Earth’s entertainment highway of every sin imaginable.
• Heaven designed our spirit to be taught by our thoughts, yet we’re taught spirit is naught.
• We imagine Heaven, yet we resist how Heaven imagines us!
• We like beautiful and expensive gems, and understanding the meanings of names, yet Heaven promises us a name that no one knows but Jesus and us, written on a white stone.
• We are easily bored doing the same ole things, yet we want to go to Heaven where we will be doing the same things, like praising and worshiping God, forever.
• We enjoy changing our looks in many ways, yet Heaven offers us an un-changeable, immortal body forever, dressed in glory Light.
• Some folks say, ‘I can’t imagine, and don’t wanna live forever’, yet Heaven says ...everyone will, saints and sinners ALIKE!!! 
• Some folks say, ‘When you’re dead, you’re DEAD!’, yet Heaven says your soul and spirit will never die, plus, we’ll ALL get a new, immortal body to spend either in a glorified zone on a new, Eternal Earth, or in the damned, judgment zone - the eternal lake of fire. 
• We say we want to go to Heaven, yet, just like Adam and Eve, we love ‘eating apples’ that will keep us out.
• We live pretending money is our god, yet wanna die pretending God is.
• On Earth, we insist on places having multiple emergency exits, yet want to go to Heaven that has only ‘One Way’ in.
• We so enjoy our genders, and even try to switch sides, yet want to go to Heaven where there are NONE, and all humans there are called, ‘sons’.
• We imagine a blissful retirement in Heaven, yet fail to imagine our likely real work in The Millennial Reign, co-ruling with Jesus an unruly world full of ‘great tribulation’ survivors and their offspring….for a thousand years! 
• We live as-secular-as-secular-can-get, yet want to go to a place that is as-spiritual-as-spiritual-can-get. Imagine that!
• We live on Earth as unholy as possible, yet want to be ‘wholly His’ in Heaven.
• We trick, lie to, steal from, and protest governments down here, failing to realize we saints will be the government in The Millennial Reign! Thus, life now is our training ground! 
• We shun and resist big government down here, yet fail to realize it is mere practice for the coming, biggest government ever, The Lord’s global, Millennial Reign, in which we will be His vassal kings.
