Ascension of Jesus ChristThe Transfiguration of Jesus Christ Beatitudes Sermon on the Mount of Jesus Christ Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God
FIRST question set.

"Eye has not seen, ear has not heard...." (what is in store for us in heaven). Why does Heaven have to be such a mystery? How come the souls can't tell us on earth what to expect in heaven? Sometimes it seems we humans have cooked up for ourselves this wonderful panacea that awaits us, and it looks like we are setting ourselves up for disappointment.

We don't have every want and need satisfied on earth, so why should everything be satisfied in heaven?

SECOND question.

If people do good deeds on earth, will they have a reward in heaven compared to those who don't do good deeds?

Will it make any difference if someone is rewarded in a land where all your needs and desires are met?

Are people brought closer to God as their reward?
