What so Great about Heaven????

What do you think Heaven is if it existed?

 

 

Is it really that great if it existed?

 

 

Would it be better if you just died and stop existing or exist somewhere/somehow for all eternity?

Re: What so Great about Heaven????

Would this statement be correct?  "As an athiest I dont believe that humans have a soul".

 

I cannot comment on that, but I can say "as a believer in God and Jesus, I don't believe that humans have a *soul".

 

*soul being what most so called Christian Churches teach is a soul - an immortal soul that flits up to heaven when a person dies.

Can someone tell me what a soul is? While they're at it, what's a spirit?

I see  one's "Soul" as the final contentment.

 

Edited:  And the "Spirit" as a conscience.

as in 'poor old soul' - a term of endearment referring to a man/woman - NOT to some invisible thing that resides in the man/woman.

according to an online dictionary:

 

 

1. the principle of life, feeling, thought, and action in humans, regarded as a distinct entity separate from the body, and commonly held to be separable in existence from the body; the spiritual part of humans as distinct from the physical part.

 

2. the spiritual part of humans regarded in its moral aspect, or as believed to survive death and be subject to happiness or misery in life to come: arguing the immortality of the soul.
 
3. the disembodied spirit of a deceased person: He feared the soul of the deceased would haunt him.
 
4. the emotional part of human nature; the seat of the feelings or sentiments.
 
5. a human being; person.
 
6. high-mindedness; noble warmth of feeling, spirit or courage, etc.
 
7. the animating principle; the essential element or part of something.
 
 
and then you have philosophical
and religious views:
