Why are some Christians taken to heaven to be with Christ? Rev. 20:6, RS: “They shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years.” (Since they are to reign with Christ, there must be people over whom they reign. Who are these? See Matthew 5:5 and Psalm 37:29.) See also the main heading “Born Again.” Will those who go to heaven be returned later to the earth to live forever here in Paradise? Prov. 2:21, RS: “The upright will inhabit the land [“dwell on earth,” NE], and men of integrity will remain in it.” (Notice that the scripture does not say that such upright people will return to the earth but that they will remain there.) 1 Thess. 4:17, RS: “And so we [Christians caught away to heaven] shall always be with the Lord.”
