The people of Paradise enjoy a much better, but still incomplete, state. They anticipate the new heaven and earth, the glorified body to be received at the rapture, and—this may surprise you—they look forward to the arrival of the rest of the saints.
In Hebrews chapter eleven the author highlights the lives of Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and Rahab the harlot. He writes, “All these people earned a good reputation because of their faith, yet none of them received all that God had promised” (Hebrews 11:39 NLT). The writer surprises us by describing how the saints are waiting for the rest of us.
As wonderful as Paradise is, it won’t be complete until all God’s children are home.

Romans 8:5-6 (NLT):
"Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace."
Ephesians 6:12 (NLT):
“For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.”
Ezekiel 13:10 (NLT):
"This will happen because these evil prophets deceive my people by saying, ‘All is peaceful’ when there is no peace at all. It’s as if the people have built a flimsy wall, and these prophets are trying to reinforce it by covering it with whitewash!"
1 Thessalonians 5:2-6 (NLT):
"For you know quite well that the day of the Lord’s return will come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night. When people are saying, 'Everything is peaceful and secure,' then disaster will fall on them as suddenly as a pregnant woman’s labor pains begin. And there will be no escape. But you aren’t in the dark about these things, dear brothers and sisters, and you won’t be surprised when the day of the Lord comes like a thief. For you are all children of the light and of the day; we don’t belong to darkness and night. So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded."

John 11. I AM the resurrection!
30 Jesus had stayed outside the village, at the place where Martha met him. 31 When the people who were at the house consoling Mary saw her leave so hastily, they assumed she was going to Lazarus’s grave to weep. So they followed her there. 32 When Mary arrived and saw Jesus, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died.”
33 When Jesus saw her weeping and saw the other people wailing with her, a deep anger welled up within him,[f] and he was deeply troubled. 34 “Where have you put him?” he asked them.
They told him, “Lord, come and see.” 35 Then Jesus wept. 36 The people who were standing nearby said, “See how much he loved him!” 37 But some said, “This man healed a blind man. Couldn’t he have kept Lazarus from dying?”
38 Jesus was still angry as he arrived at the tomb, a cave with a stone rolled across its entrance. 39 “Roll the stone aside,” Jesus told them.
But Martha, the dead man’s sister, protested, “Lord, he has been dead for four days. The smell will be terrible.”
40 Jesus responded, “Didn’t I tell you that you would see God’s glory if you believe?” 41 So they rolled the stone aside. Then Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, thank you for hearing me. 42 You always hear me, but I said it out loud for the sake of all these people standing here, so that they will believe you sent me.” 43 Then Jesus shouted, “Lazarus, come out!” 44 And the dead man came out, his hands and feet bound in graveclothes, his face wrapped in a headcloth. Jesus told them, “Unwrap him and let him go!”
“He will cause deceit to prosper,…When they feel secure, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be destroyed, but not by human power” (Daniel 8:25 NIV).
Chapters 6 through 19 of Revelation describe in detail what will happen during the oppression by the Antichrist: famine, death, cosmic disturbances. The Jewish remnant will feel the full force of his anti-Semitic ire. Deception will be standard fare. I’m describing the darkest chapter of human history.
But I’ve not yet told you the good news. The tribulation? It’s going to happen. Satan’s henchman? He will be worse than anyone can imagine. But the wonderful news? If you are in Christ, you won’t have to face him. For by the time he arrives, you will be long gone in Paradise.

Jesus, in John 11....
“There are twelve hours of daylight every day. During the day people can walk safely. They can see because they have the light of this world. 10 But at night there is danger of stumbling because they have no light.” 11 Then he said, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but now I will go and wake him up.”
12 The disciples said, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will soon get better!” 13 They thought Jesus meant Lazarus was simply sleeping, but Jesus meant Lazarus had died.
14 So he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead. 15 And for your sakes, I’m glad I wasn’t there, for now you will really believe. Come, let’s go see him.”

Ephesians 2:8-9 (NLT)
“God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.”
Jesus, in John 11....
“There are twelve hours of daylight every day. During the day people can walk safely. They can see because they have the light of this world. 10 But at night there is danger of stumbling because they have no light.” 11 Then he said, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but now I will go and wake him up.”
