Preaching in Heaven


Same as in  earth, there is also preaching in heaven, for children,  guided by their faithful mothers.  If the children left earth earlier than their mothers,  they are taken cared of by angels.


"I see," said David, "we are coming near the children’s spiritual Polytechnic.  Can you hear them singing?" "Oh, most distinctly," and yet, the place was still out of sight.  The streets were thronged with the little ones, usually in company with the angels or faithful mothers or those having care over them.  They all seemed so joyous and their laugh of hilarity and joyful conversation bespoke perfect contentment and satisfaction, and yet we knew that much the larger number had left their parents in the earth; but there is no grief nor sorrow in heaven.  If all mothers in earth could only see their children whom they have lost, as they really are, they would weep no more, but make every provision needed to soon follow them to those mansions of light"


Many older people were among them.  Some were parents conducting their children.  Some small infants were carried by the angels, or precious women had them pressed close to their bosoms, for their infant feet had never learned to walk.

At last our chariot halted just near the great entrance, where it seemed countless throngs were pouring in, and of all this great host none had been within the compass of the heavenly domain but a short time.  Children soon grow to maturity in heaven.  Your little babe, dear mother of earth, which left you many years ago, is now with its harp of gold singing and praising God in all the maturity of its manhood or womanhood.
