While we know that the Father has commited all judgment to the Son (John 5:22 KJV), but we also know that we - God's congregation of saints - will be doing the judging, at least in some sense. Christ said to His disciples that in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of...

In eternity will we ever see God the Father's "face"? I'm hoping to stay out of the debates of God having a face as we understand it. Its more of a question of how close our interaction will be with the Father. I'm certain we'll never be disappointed in whatever God grants but I struggle to...

I told my toddler today that God is in heaven. He asked, "Where is heaven?" I didn't exactly know what to answer, so I replied that it is where God's glory is. Maybe a more specific question is, "Where is Jesus' physical body located at this time?" How would you respond?
