First 90 secondsR. C. Sproul· Soundbite0:00
We hold on so tenaciously to life in this world because we haven't really been convinced of the glory that the Father has established in Heaven for His people. Our greatest moment will be the moment that we walk through the door and leave this world of tears and of sorrow, this valley of death, and enter into the presence of the Lamb.

[classical music] We can find ourselves so distracted from what really matters in life. We're bombarded with breaking news every hour and smartphones that alert us with messages every minute. As a result, we're consumed with the here and now, and have little time to consider eternity. Hello and welcome to this Saturday edition of Renewing Your Mind. I'm Lee Webb. Even if we don't think about Heaven, there are so many misunderstandings. What will it be like? Clouds, white robes, harps? As we come to the final message in this brief series from R.C. Sproul's extensive Foundation series, we come to a message on the believer's final rest. Because this is the final message, today is your final opportunity to request the entire 60 message study on a special edition DVD and a copy of Dr. Sproul's book, Everyone's a Theologian.
