If there were no heaven....
...promised to us in the Bible. If the Bible never mentioned hell. If God never promised walls of Jasper, gates of pearl or a street of Gold. If the Bible never mentioned a lake of fire or "hellfire and damnation". If at the end of this life there was nothing but death. No afterlife. None.
If... Would we still serve God if there was no heaven to gain? Would ywe live like the devil if there was no hell to shun?
Are we following Him for the loaves and fishes He gives? Do we follow Him for His promises, or out of sheer love for His gift of salvation provided for us at Calvary?
Are we just followers of Jesus, or are we really His disciples?
Just musing...
