Scripture

Colossians 3:1–4 NIV

Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

Col:

1 - Since we are saved by Jesus, let's set our minds on things above since that is where he is.

2 - Set your minds on heavenly things not earthly things

3 - We are now citizens of heaven because of Jesus

4 - When Jesus returns we will join him in Heaven

Hebrews 11:16 NIV

Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

Heb

16 - They longed for Heaven and God was proud!

John 8:44 NIV

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

John

44 - The Devil speaks in lies he revels in lies he uses lies to lead you astray (Cant begin to imagine what heaven looks like)

Rev

6 - Satan will slander God and his dwelling place
