Heaven Is Real
"...by Mary Kathryn Baxter..."
Background
After 30 nights of experiencing the depths of hell, Mary Baxter was shown the realms of heaven. Here are some breathtaking glimpses of the beauty and joy that await every believer in Jesus Christ.
Gates of Heaven
On the 31st night, she was again visited by an angel and was supernaturally transported from her home to a gate of heaven. There were angels with triangular-shaped wings that glistened with the colors of the rainbow. Two very tall angels were guarding the gate and they had swords in their hands. She was allowed in after the angels had review a book that contains her life history. The book had a gold cover and words printed in gold with her name stamped on the cover.
The gate was made of pearl. Inside the gate, the whole atmosphere was filled with beautiful music. Singning also surged across the landscape and seemed to envelope everything and everyone. In the city, citizens of heaven were seen dressed in robes and their faces beamed with joy and happiness beyond compare. They were people from various nationality and age.
Every saints seem to be constantly occupied with some activities. Diamonds are given to soulwinners on earth to be used for his mansion each time he wins a soul for God. There is room for everybody in heaven.
Tears in Heaven
In heaven, there are rooms that are used to keep tears. Each room radiats holiness and power. Inside, they are lined with crystal shelves and the walls glowed with light. On the shelves were many bottles. Under each sparkling cluster of glass-like bottles was a plaque with a name on it. There were many such bottles in the rooms. There were also books lying on an elegant table.
Inside a room, a man who appeared to have been glorified, was attending to the books. Every now and then, angels would bring a small bowl containing tears into the room. The tears were from a specific person on earth. The man would then pour the tears from the bowl into a specific bottle belonging to the same person.
He then picked up one of the books on the table and opened it. The pages were completely blank. The man then poured a drop of tears from the bottle onto the first page. Immediately, beautiful words, elegantly handwritten appeared on the page. Each time a tear fell on a page, the whole page of writing appeared. These are tears from the saints of God on earth as they cry to God.
"The most perfect prayers are those that are bathed in tears that came from the hearts and souls of men and women on earth."
The Three Heavens
The First Heaven:
The atmospheric heaven which is around the earth. This is where the birds fly and the winds blow, where the showers, storms, mists, vapours and clouds are formed. (Refer to verses Acts 1:11 and John 17:1)
The Second Heaven
The space which encompasses the sun, moon, and stars.
"Blessing I will bless you and multiplying I will multiply your decendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore." (Genesis 22:17)
"And take head, lest you lift your eyes to heaven and when you see the sun, the moon, and the stars, all the host of heaven, you feel driven to worship them and serve them, which the Lord your God has given to all the peoples under the whole heaven as a heritage." (Deuteronomy 4:19)
The Third Heaven
The destination of the righteous, however, is beyond the atmosphere and the starry skies. this place is what the apostle Paul referred to when he wrote; "I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven." (NIV Ref 2Cor 12:2)
The Throne of God
God's throne was "high and lifted up" (Is 6:1). Coming out from under the base is the River of Life which flowed in its beauty and purity. The glory of God over-shadowed the throne. It seemed that lighting, thunder and voices were all around the throne. There's also a rainbow arching above and around the throne.
"From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God." (NIV ref Rev 4:5)
