Without God there is no good. The
origin of good is God; the nature of man is evil. If God is good and man is
evil then without God there is evil.
Psalms 16:11 says “In your presence is the
fullness of joy” As humans we tend to look for joy in all the wrong places, we
think that love from others will bring it, or when that doesn’t work sometimes
people try momentary joy from drugs or alcohol or sex. But although it may
bring us temporary satisfaction in the end we are left joyless. Only in the
presence of God is there found “fullness of joy”.
If heaven had no God then it would be just as evil, sad and
sin filled as earth is. It would be like a kitchen without food, a veggie
burger with just bread and lettuce, a book without words, modern art,
contaminated water, a race with no runners, drugs, and a fly with no wings…
basically it would be pointless. Because there is no heaven without happiness.
And he is happiness. He is the very definition of happiness, because without
him there is no true joy.
Without God, heaven would be hell
because the definition of hell is complete separation from God.
