Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither. – C.S. Lewis

The Gospel gets people to God
The gospel is not a way to get people to heaven; it is a way to get people to God. It’s a way of overcoming every obstacle to everlasting joy in God. If we don’t want God above all things, we have not been converted by the gospel. — John Piper
Christ’s death is the Christian’s life. Christ’s cross is the Christian’s title to heaven. — J.C. Ryle

Your reward in heaven
Blessed are you when others revile you. Rejoice and be glad for your reward in heaven is great.
Little faith
Little faith will bring your soul to heaven, but great faith will bring heaven to you. — Charles Spurgeon
You’d be bored to tears in heaven
If your heart takes more pleasure in reading novels, or watching TV, or going to the movies, or talking to friends, rather than just sitting alone with God and embracing Him, sharing His cares and His burdens, weeping and rejoicing with Him, then how are you going to handle forever and ever in His presence?
You’d be bored to tears in heaven, if you’re not ecstatic about God now!
— Keith Green
