Sandpiper's Thoughts: Who goes to heaven?

Original post at http://sandpipersthoughts.blogspot.com/2012/11/who-goes-to-heaven.html

Someone told me the other day that the idea that everyone would go to heaven was sad.  She thought the idea made her life futile.

This is what I believe.  Everyone is a beloved child of God.  His ultimate plan, I think, is that everyone would join him in the Kingdom of God.  Far from it being sad that everyone would end up in heaven, it would actually be a time of rejoicing, as God's purpose and love for the world would be somewhat fulfilled.
