3.       Heaven Is The Place Of God’s Full Glory
“As I looked, thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was as white as snow, the hair of his head was white like wool, his throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him…” (Dan 7:9,10). See also Acts 7:55.

“After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne.
