Heaven: Spirits without bodies fit Platonism not Christianity.
Of all the misconceptions we have about Heaven, which is the most destructive? That’s a difficult and important question to tackle. Someone asked: Do you really believe we will eat and drink in the afterlife? Yes! But many Bible-believing Christians would die before denying the doctrine of the resurrection—and yet they don’t fully believe it. Some Christians don’t understand what resurrection means. They really believe they will spend eternity as disembodied spirits. God’s revelation concerning the resurrection and the New Earth—our forever home—eludes them. A Christian university professor wrote, “I was floored and dismayed to discover the vast majority of my students don’t believe in the bodily resurrection.” Some evangelicals even believe we become angels when we die. If I could eliminate one belief about Heaven, it would be the heresy that the physical world is an enemy of God’s redemptive plan rather than a central part of it.
