Paradise - African style - ThePianoGuys

1 Corinthians 2:9     (NIV)
“No eye has seen,
    no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived
    what God has prepared for those who love him”


ThePianoGuys did a great job on this one...as usual

I suppose paradise is a relative term, e.g. I love the ocean but my mother is terrified by it.

What is "Paradise" to you? When I was a little boy my dream of heaven was that of swimming in a bowl of chocolate pudding. That has changed a little over the years. Heaven to me now would have to be an endless slice carrot cake & a cup of coffee. haha

You see...the definition of Paradise is personal and relative to your likes, dislikes, experience, dreams, etc.

Heaven is a real place.
A destination for some very very special people.
It is the future home of a particular group that for millennium have wandered the earth as homeless pilgrims, strangers, and sojourners. As children of God, our home is where He is...and our joint-heir...Jesus Christ.

Our future residence will have extraordinary amenities. Our discomfort here is due to our birth right from the Father, our relationship with Christ, and our affiliation with the body of Christ, the church.
Our heavenly home, is in part, our reward and resort...for all eternity
Its description is....
                        .....Luxury is not the word
                             .....Neither is it opulence
                                  .....Indulgent, Palatial, none of these apply. These are worldly descriptions and rooted in pride, wealth, greed, & arrogance.

Its description is....
In the language of a Resort Vacation GUIDE...
...From the landscape to the architecture
...From the clientele to the itinerary
...From the schedule to the key note speaker
...From the fashion to the buffet
...From the concierge to the transportation

It is simply...
It is...
Its just......well.....

PARADISE
