  1. Heaven - #1 Heaven – Looking forward to it?

  2. The importance of looking forward to heaven: • If we don’t we’ll settle down in this life too comfortably.

  3. Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. 16 For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17 The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever. 1 John 2:15-17.

  4. ‘To endeavour to obtain for myself as much happiness, in the other world, as I possibly can’! Jonathon Edwards

  5. The importance of looking forward to heaven: • If we don’t we’ll settle down in this life too comfortably. • If we don’t we won’t have the motivation to persevere through the difficult times.

  13. "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
