"Neither shall there be mourning. nor crying. nor pain anymore. for the former things have passed away."
Revelation 21:4
You will not spend eternity grieving over your past sins and missed opportunities. We will never forget that we were sinners because we will always be finding joy in the Lamb who was slain, the Son of God who redeemed us by the shedding of His blood. We will know ourselves to be redeemed sinners—not in a way that will bring pain or regret, but in a way that will cause us to magnify and glorify Christ for all that He is and for all that He has done.
You will not spend eternity carrying baggage from difficult relationships with other believers. Even at our best, Christians are so far from what we will be that it is sometimes hard for us to imagine broken relationships completely restored and deep wounds completely healed. But God is able to do more than we could ever ask or imagine.
In heaven, every Christian will be made perfect in repentance and perfect in humility. There will be, in all of us, complete ownership of all that is ours and complete repentance from the heart. At the same time, in heaven, every Christian will be perfect in forgiveness—there will be no grudges. There will be a giving and a receiving of forgiveness among God’s people that will position all of us for a life of harmony in the new heaven on earth.
What are some past sins, regrets, or painful baggage you would like to be free from?
