“At the center of the world to come is the promise that God will be there. Heaven is almost synonymous with God Himself.

That’s because all its glory flows from His direct, unmediated presence.

The presence of God makes heaven a world of more: more happiness and more holiness, fullness of joy forever, an eternal world of love.

And the presence of God makes heaven a world of no more: no more sin, no more sorrow, no more pain, no more death, and no more tears because God will wipe them away and make sure there is no more reason to weep again.”

–Matt McCullough, Remember Heaven: Meditations on the World to Come for Life in the Meantime (Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2025), 16.
