Seriously! When we get to heaven, which form of religion or whose theology from this life will God adhere to or be teaching? Which religion of form of theology will reign supreme in glory?
If you say that this is absurd, and silly, then I ask why we fight tooth and nail over religious beliefs of theological understandings and teachings in this life? A life that is actually like a vapor, soon to pass, and after we are gone, all that we held dear and near to our heart will, in fact, be of little consequence to those left behind! How much a change has there been in religion and theological foundations just since Luther or Wesley, or Calvin or anyone of significance has passed from this life and unto everlasting life? All that these men built their fundamental foundations on have given way to change, and today, their die-hard stance has softened and changed to accommodate the world left behind! In Eccll. 3:2 we are told, "For everything, there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:" Which would support change, here on earth, and that change would be applicable to even our religious beliefs and long taught theologies! In Psalms 102:26 we read, "They will perish, but you will remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away,"
The only thing that doesn't change is the Bible! In Hebrews 13: 8, we read, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." It is a fact that reading the Bible can and will, and even should change you; however, the truth is, the Word of God, like Jesus, per Hebrews 13:8 says, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."
So, which form of religious traditions or orthodoxy, or what theological foundation will we find heaven to be based on? In short: will there be theology or religions in heaven?
