It also implies that heaven is not limited to spirits like angels, but can be accessed by human beings as well.Rate this question:

- A.
We could control our own behavior for the sake of social order.
- B.
Life itself would be a sufficient reward for good living.
- C.
Law and order would be more possible.
- D.
Our belief in sin, repentance and reward would be in vain.
- E.
It would prove there is a God.
Correct Answer
D. Our belief in sin, repentance and reward would be in vain.Explanation
If there were no heaven nor hell, the Christian belief in sin, repentance, and reward would be in vain. The concept of sin and the need for repentance are central to Christian theology, as they are believed to lead to salvation and eternal life in heaven. Without the existence of heaven and hell, there would be no ultimate consequence for one's actions, making the belief in sin and repentance meaningless. The idea of a reward for living a good life would also lose its significance if there were no heaven to strive for.Rate this question:

"Heaven" is described as having streets that are paved with gold; gates decorated with many pearls; and a heavenly choir of ever-singing angels, according to the book of Revelation.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The statement is false because the book of Revelation does not describe heaven as having streets paved with gold, gates decorated with pearls, or a heavenly choir of ever-singing angels. While the book does mention these elements, it is in reference to the New Jerusalem, a city that descends from heaven to the new earth, not heaven itself. The description of heaven in the book of Revelation is more focused on the presence of God, the absence of pain and suffering, and the eternal life of believers.Rate this question:
