During this time of lent and now good Friday and the approach of Easter, our Lord has risen and spoke of heaven on the cross. For those who lack faith or don't believe in heaven, I pray for you since without faith in Christ or in Heaven, you have no future or reward to look forward to. Read John 3-16
Heaven is real! My prayer for all people is that they believe it and put their faith in Christ and his teachings. Don't let MAN and/or dogma lead you astray.
