Question and Answer
Will there be wealthy people in heaven?
Yes. All of us! Every redeemed human being in heaven will be wealthy in the “heavenly” meaning of wealth (2 Cor 8:8–9). What I mean is this: every person in heaven will be wealthy in the sense that they will be free from the power and presence of sin. We will also have a glorified body through which the Holy Spirit will act without hindrance (Rom. 8:23; Phil. 3:20–21). Sin will not taint our lives in the slightest way, allowing unhindered fellowship with the triune God and with one another. The spiritual blessing and wealth that are ours right now in Christ will be experienced in a fullness of joy beyond anything we have known or experienced in this life (Rev. 22:1–5). Certainly, we will be wealthy!
