天堂 - 基督徒永恆家鄉

Heaven is a reality, not seen by eyes of flesh, but made known by revelation and received by faith.

Archibald Alexander

天堂是具體的,非憑肉眼可見,而是藉啟示得知,並憑信心得著。

Heaven is a prepared place for prepared people.

天堂已經為預備妥當的人準備好了。

In our first paradise in Eden there was a way to go out but no way to go in again.  But as for the heavenly paradise, there is a way to go in, but no way to go out again.

Richard Baxter

在伊甸園,我們的第一個樂園裡,有一條出去的道路,卻沒有再次進入的道路。而在天上的樂園裡,有一條路可以進去,但卻沒有一條路可以再出去。

A dog is at home in this world because this is the only one a dog will ever live in.  We are not at home in this world because we are made for a better one.

Vancer Havner

一條狗活在這世賓至如歸,因為這就是它唯一生活之處。我們在世上不會賓至如歸,因為我們本就是受造為一個佳美之處。

Those that are acquainted with God and Christ are already in the suburbs of life eternal.

Matthew Henry

那些認識上帝和基督的人早就住在永生的郊區了。

My whole outlook upon everything that happens to me should be governed by these three things: my realization of who I am, my consciousness of where I am going, and my knowledge of what await me when I get there.

Andrew Carnegie

我對發生在周遭的事情的看法取決於這三件:我對自己的認知,我對將往何處去的體會以及當我在那邊將會遇到甚麼事情的瞭解。

We shall not rest from our work but from our labours.  There will be no toil no pain in our work.

Robert Murray M'Cheyne

我們不要停止我們的工作而是要停止我們的勞苦。在那兒,我們的工作不會辛勞與痛楚。

When I get to heaven, I shall see three wonders there - the first wonder will be to see many people there whom I did not expect to see; the second wonder will be to miss many people whom I did expect to see; and the third and greatest wonder of all will be to find myself there.

John Newton

當我到了天上,我會看見三件令我驚訝的事情,第一、許多我沒有料想到會見到的人居然在那裡;第二、不少我以為會在那裡的人卻沒看到;第三,也是最令我訝異的,我居然發現我在那裡。

Heaven is not all rest.  On the door is scribed: 'No admission except on business.'

Augustus H. Strong

天堂可不是無所事事的。在天堂的大門上貼著:「閒人免進」。
