What Is Heaven?

 

What is heaven like?


The spirit realm is a hive of activity.  It is occupied by hundreds of millions of spirit creatures "who carry out [Jehovah's] word." - PSALM 103:20, 21; DANIEL  7:10.


The Bible describes  heaven as being brilliantly lighted.  (1 Timothy 6:15, 16) The prophet Ezekiel received a heavenly vision marked by "brilliant light," while the vision of heaven that Daniel saw included "a stream of fire." (Ezekiel 1:26-28; Daniel 7:9, 10) Heaven is holy, or clean, and beautiful. - PSALM 96:6; ISAIAH 63:15; REVELATION 4:2. 3.


The overall impression that  the Bible gives is awe-insiring. (Ezekiel 43:2, 3) Nevertheless, it is not possible to comprehend heaven fully, since the spirit realm is beyond our senses.
