I wanted to help someone with an advice question about a death in teh family, and I thought I'd explain a little bit of what the bible says about Heaven.. Only, I couldn't find any descriptions! Yeah, I found some for the new city of jerusalem God will make later, but nothing about the current heaven.. help?
Signed,
don't know where to stand... (link)

It's true that the bible doesn't offer a whole lot of description about heaven, most is found in the book of Revelations. And Saint Gasoline, "And if God DOES change men into perfect beings when they enter heaven, how is that compatible with God's supposed gift of free will? If free will is so valuable, why would God ultimately deny it in favor of perfection?"
The only people who will be getting into heaven are the ones who CHOSE to accept Jesus as their lord and savior.
And most of the christian holidays were placed to coincide with pagan holidays by the early catholic church to discourage the drinking and orgies that usually took place on said holidays.
Sorry for the tangent. All you need to know about heaven is that it will be better than anything that we can possibly imagine.
