“The heavens declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1). So too do the accomplishments of mankind whom He created in His image, and made to reflect his glory.

Adam and Eve were perfect when they were in the garden, but they sinned. Will we be able to sin again in the coming life? Randy Alcorn answers this question from Romans and Revelation. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

In this clip Randy Alcorn explains several verses that are often misused to try to argue that we will have no need for things such as eating and drinking in Heaven. He finishes with an excerpt from C.S. Lewis' "The Last Battle," which describes how the food in Aslan's Country (a representation of Heaven) is far better than anything tasted on this earth. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

Wayne Grudem in his "Systematic Theology" wonders why so many Christians insist on understanding the descriptions of Heaven symbolically. In this clip Randy Alcorn quotes Grudem to make the point that enjoying things like eating and drinking, bike rides, etc. in this life are not wrong. So why would it be wrong to do those things in the life to come? Will we spend every moment in Heaven worshiping God on our knees? Or can we ride bikes in Heaven to the glory of God just as we can here on this earth. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

In other clips, Randy Alcorn points to our aversion to thinking we will really eat and drink in Heaven, but here Randy shows an example of the over-spiritualization of eating and drinking from the NLT translation of Luke 14:15. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

It is easy to think what we do on this earth doesn't matter because Heaven is unearthly. But Randy Alcorn suggests that our whole perspective on the importance of things now changes when we understand the reality of the New Earth. Suddenly, things in this life such as trees, laughter and service matter because this life is the beginning of a life that will continue without end on the New Earth. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

In this clip Randy Alcorn points out that eating and drinking are often thought of as inherently bad because they are part of this physical world. But that is really an idea that comes from Platonism. In Luke, Jesus says that getting to eat at the feast in God's kingdom is a blessing. From this Randy argues that there is no reason to think that we will only eat and drink in a spiritual sense when in Heaven. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

Yes! We have heard from several youth pastors who have created ways to use this book with their students. One wrote to us with this account:

I think when you look at what’s happening at schools and life in general, and with children being abducted, these are things that every parent is going to ask.

First, we need to define sin nature. The “nature” of a person or object is commonly thought of as its essential qualities or attributes; that which makes it what it is.
