Or does their reward(s) vary based on how close they are to Jesus?
I'm going to take a guess that our reward varies upon first reaching Heaven but that, over time, we can all attain the same level of glory.
Let me make an analogy using the game Candy Land. In Candy Land, everyone starts at the beginning and, eventually, reaches the end of the trail and is declared the winner. Well, my guess is that, when we die, we go into Heaven and most start at or near the beginning. However, some Christians, who have exemplified what it means to walk in the footsteps of Christ, start further along the path of becoming one with God. The closer we get to God, the more we feel his love and glory, which is its own reward.
Any thoughts?
