Narnia is filled with witchcraft that the Bible condemns.
So I would not regard anything Lewis has to say about Heaven.
That’s exactly right.Narnia is filled with witchcraft that the Bible condemns.

Paul did not promote & glorify witchcraft & sorcery like CS Lewis.Sorry that is delusional. CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien was the modern St. Paul, you all got to much fundamentalism.

"Rather, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no heart has imagined, what God has prepared for those who love Him (1 Corinthians 2:9).” No matter what answer one gives, we are probably wrong. If we could visualize, repeat what we've heard, or imagine in our hearts what God has prepared for us, then Paul would not have stated otherwise.When we finally leave this earth and go to be with the Lord God Almighty unto the Heavenly Jerusalem
What do you imagine this place where He resides to be like?
When getting there will you have a lot of questions to be asked then?
Would it, to you, be possible for free-will to exist in this place with the Lord God Almighty?
Will we be able see Jesus Christ of Nazareth?
What do you imagine there will be to do here in this new place?
When pass on unto this place, will we receive a new body from our old one?
What do you say about animals being around in this place? Even pets from the past?
What you think about having your family with you?
Would you believe that some say you wont even be able to tell who each other were at one point (family)?
Please feel free to share whatever comes to your mind about this topic, it would lovely to hear the responses from each person who does!
Some say, there is virgins and other wives to be taken in heaven.
Some say, there is probably radical waves and oceans to be surfed along side.
Some say, there is cloud sitting, playing instruments and singing.
Some say, there is nothing but worshiping proclaiming to the Lord God Almighty day and night.
Some say, possibly if there isn't any ocean in heaven they might not even wanna be there!
“I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, whether in the body, I cannot tell, or whether out of the body, I cannot tell, God knoweth: such a one, caught up to the third heaven. And I knew such a man (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell, God knoweth), how that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.” 2 Corinthians 12:2–4 (NCPB)When we finally leave this earth and go to be with the Lord God Almighty unto the Heavenly Jerusalem

Sorry you have to lie about CS Lewis. Anyone who dioesn't like him is not worth their salt
Because an eternity of doing nothing but falling on our face and singing just doesn't sound all that appealing, and that's basically what the bible says about heaven.Anyways, getting back on topic:
When we think about Heaven, we should not go beyond what is written in Scripture. Speculation is only that. Speculation. What good will come of it? Can we imagine what we want Heaven to be like? Can we make something true about Heaven that is not true? I would say the truth of Heaven is a better alternative. Everything else is just fantasy or guessing. I am content with what Scripture says about it, and leave the rest as a mystery.
Remember our final destination is not heaven but the new heavens and the new earth. God is recreating this present earth and it will be better than the original we now live in because sin, the fall and satan will no longer be in the new one. Jesus will rule and reign in the new one as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. There will be no need for the sun because God will be its light. It will be beyong anything we can think or imagine. The New Jerusalem comes down from heaven to the new earth and its dimensions are 1500 miles squared. We can read about it in Revelation 20-22Because an eternity of doing nothing but falling on our face and singing just doesn't sound all that appealing, and that's basically what the bible says about heaven.

hope this helps !!!
The scene in heaven is during the tribulation period not during the new heavens and earth so that needs to be considered. In that scene its all about worship but there is a context in Revelation 4-5 prior to Gods wrath being poured out upon all mankind.By "heaven" I just mean the dwelling place of God. On the new earth, God dwells on the new earth, so that makes the new earth Heaven in that sense.
But the same thing. All the bible really describes is falling on our faces, singing, and worship. Without any speculations or dreams, eternity with God sounds monotonous.
I much prefer when people DO speculate, because if they can make it sound better, and it is said to be even better than we can imagine, then that is far more hopeful, than just falling on our faces around the throne singing HOLY HOLY HOLY until we beg God to not exist anymore.
Doing any 1 singular thing over an extended period of time is boring, even if you really enjoy that one single thing. Eat your favorite food every single meal of every single day and very quickly you'll be sick of it and not want to eat it again for a long time.
In fact didn't that happen to the Israelites in the time of Moses? They quite simply got bored of eating Manna every single meal of every single day?
I've never liked descriptions like that.
It sounds like we give up good things, things that God made to be good, they're just yanked away from us even if they were good.
First century people were scared of the sea, so no oceans? What about for the people who love the oceans?
No marriage, no children, that's the saddest one.

oceans and marriage, are a few of them. I also prefer night because I like the stars and the soft light of the moon over glaring hot light of the sun and daytime, I prefer the quiet and peace of evening and night time too, vs the hustle and bustle of the day. Daytime narrows our scope of creation, it limits what we can see to just our own planet, and one blinding light. Night time lets you see off into the vastness of creation that declares the glory of God. So night, is a good thing that God created, that in the bible, God takes away.you read it??
what good things are given up in that link's description of heaven?
water covers 75% of the Earth's surface - how much of it have you personally experienced?
We know more about the moon that vast sections of the ocean floor.
In the New Earth at lot more people will be living here - than do now at some point. Instead of being 75% devoted to fish and 25% to supporting humanity -- it will be more "balanced".
You got that from Matthew 22.
All the children ever born who died as a small child -- will be there as children in heaven when we get there - parents separated from their small child by death will be re-united with them in heaven and will be their for their 4th birthday, and 5th birthday etc. nothing missed. How can that possibly be "bad news"???
Mothers and fathers will raise their child in that perfect holy sinless environment. The child will not have known even a minute of the separation and pain endured on this Earth by their parent at the death of their child.
