Eternity will be a time of intense, joyful activity—not boring idleness—as believers rule with Christ and enjoy the vast new creation.
Les Feldick repeatedly teaches that heaven will be a place of great activity and responsibility, far surpassing the best pleasures of this life. Scripture shows a vast new earth and a New Jerusalem with ample room, and the resurrected Jesus even ate with His disciples, demonstrating that eternal life includes real bodily involvement.
Revelation 21:1 — Describes the new heaven and new earth, the eternal dwelling place of believers.
Revelation 21:16 — Gives the dimensions of the New Jerusalem, showing its vast size.
Luke 24:42-43 — Shows the resurrected Lord Jesus eating bodily after His resurrection.
The Bible reveals that after the present earth passes away, John saw a new heaven and a new earth: “for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea” (Revelation 21:1). In that new creation, the New Jerusalem is described as a city that is equal in length, breadth, and height—twelve thousand furlongs on each side (Revelation 21:16). This shows a dwelling place of unimaginable size. In Luke’s Gospel, the risen Christ ate broiled fish and honeycomb before His disciples, demonstrating that resurrection life involves a real body and real fellowship. These passages point to an eternal existence that is physical, active, and spacious—not an ethereal, empty state.
Les Feldick is emphatic that eternity will not be a boring, idle sitting on clouds. He describes heaven as “a place of intense activity” and says God has no use for idleness. He pictures the new universe as “garden plots” for believers, where members of the Body of Christ will have responsibilities throughout God’s new creation and will rule with Christ in the heavenlies—not for a thousand years, but for eternity. Les also stresses that the new earth will be an extension of the kingdom economy, with tremendous production and activity, and that it will be so huge that no one will be crowded. He even teaches that believers may have a planet all their own to rule. He points to Luke 24 as evidence that we will be bodily involved and enjoy good things like eating.
No. Les says the old idea of sitting on a cloud with a harp and doing nothing is not heaven at all. He insists that eternity will be “a viable exercise” and a place of intense activity, but without the problems, tribulations, and sorrows we experience now.
Les pictures the new universe as “garden plots” for believers, with responsibilities throughout all of God’s new creation. Members of the Body of Christ will rule with Christ in the heavenlies, and the kingdom economy—with tremendous production and activity—will continue into the new earth.
Yes. Les teaches that we will not spend eternity in an ethereal, invisible soul state; we will be bodily involved and enjoy good things God provides, including eating. He points to Luke 24, where the resurrected Jesus ate broiled fish and honeycomb before His disciples, as evidence of bodily enjoyment after resurrection.
Absolutely. The New Jerusalem is 1,500 miles long, wide, and high, and the new earth will be huge enough to hold it and keep it in orbit. Les says there will be no cramping or “massing together” of glorified bodies; there will be ample room for everyone. Some believers may even have a planet of their own to rule.
The New Jerusalem's Size and the Vast New Earth
Les explains that the New Jerusalem is a cube 1,500 miles in every direction, proving the new earth must be enormous to hold it and give everyone ample room.
Heaven as Intense Activity
Les teaches that believers will be constantly busy in heaven; the best pleasures of this life are nothing compared to what God has prepared.
Duplicated Teaching on Activity
This clip repeats Les's statement that heaven will be a place of intense activity and that God has nothing to do with idleness.
Eternity Is Not Boring
Les counters the idea of heaven as harp-strumming monotony, calling eternity a viable exercise and a place of intense activity without present troubles.
Ruling With Christ in the Heavenlies
Les teaches that Body of Christ believers will have responsibilities across God's new universe, rule with Christ forever, and won't be limited by time or space.
The Kingdom Economy Continues
Les says the new earth will be an extension of the kingdom economy, with tremendous production and activity—not an eternity of idleness.
Ample Room in the New Earth
Les assures that the new earth is huge enough that no believer will ever feel crowded; some may even rule over a planet.
Bodily Enjoyment and Eating in Eternity
Les points to the risen Jesus eating fish and honeycomb in Luke 24 to show that believers in eternity will be bodily involved and enjoy good things like eating.
Revelation 21:1: And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
This verse establishes the eternal setting—the passing of the old earth and the arrival of a new heaven and new earth.
Revelation 21:16: And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
These dimensions are what Les uses to explain why the new earth must be enormous.
Luke 24:42-43: And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them.
Jesus' eating after His resurrection is evidence that bodily enjoyment continues into resurrection life.
No. Les Feldick says heaven will be a place of intense activity, not idle rest on a cloud. Eternity will be a viable exercise without the sorrows and problems of this present life.
Yes. Based on Luke 24, where the risen Jesus ate broiled fish and honeycomb, Les teaches that believers will be bodily involved in eternity and will enjoy good things God provides, including eating.
Yes. The New Jerusalem is 1,500 miles in each dimension, and the new earth will be huge enough to hold it and keep it in orbit. Les says there will be ample room, and no one will feel cramped.
