3. To Possess God Is Enough For Heaven.
hide text
Such a relationship is the great proof of immortality. Christ and Sadducees.
The true glory of heaven is in fuller possession of God: no doubt other things, but these subsidiary.
The Reward is God.
The idea of recompense ample and full for all sorrow. More than adequate wages for all work.
That final reward will show how wise the wanderer was, who left his father's house and' looked for a city.'
God is not ashamed to be called their God.Christ comes to us-offers Himself.
Think of how rich with Him, and oh, think of how poor without Him!
Which will you have on earth?
