This has probably been brought up a few thousand times. Acording to the bible and the majority of the Christians i've talked to insist that our purpose in life is to serve and honor God. That Heaven is an eternity serving God in Heaven. Does anyone have thoughts or want to try and explain this

don't worry, heaven will be nice. I think serving means about the same thing as it does for us on Earth. When we serve God we live our lives for Him and such, and basically that's the same thing in heaven. I really doubt we'll spend every second bowing down and singing. If that's all God wanted us for then He wouldn't have done any of this, meaning bothered with this big elaborate plan and having free will. He would've just made us robots.

When we do bow down to Him in heaven it will be because we want to.

I think if God saves everyone, he wont be having a problem with people willingly following him.

I don't remember the dude, but it was a great rant. Think about it, if we all were saved, especially the people who thought that there is no heaven or hell, think about the immense love you would have for god after that. If love and service is what god wants from us and what happens in heaven, he should save us all.
