The Eternal State of the Saved
Beyond End TimesSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the eternal state of the saved based on his interpretation of scripture. He asserts that the eternity of heaven is unthinkable for non-Christians, and even the happiness of the rich and famous pales in comparison to that of the saints. While some may hold the view that death is an unconscious state, Gregg argues that Jesus and Paul spoke of death as sleep, indicating that it is not a permanent state. He highlights that the eternal state will involve the worship of God, learning and discovering new things, and the possibility of being rewarded for one's sacrifices on Earth.
