I believe in God and that he put his son Jesus Christ on this earth so that those who believe in him and ask for his for forgiveness of their sins may have ever lasting life in Heaven. I 'll admit that I am not a student of the Old or New Testaments of the Bible. So my question is, how do you envision the Kingdom of Heaven to be?

I think our minds can't envision it. If Moses was in the presence of God while getting the 10 Commandments and came down off the mountain glowing I don't think our peanut imaginations has that capacity.
Advice? Wise men don't need it. Fools won't heed it.

The Bible references Heaven a lot. John Chapter 14 verses 2 and 3. In my father's house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. (3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself. That where I am, there ye may also. Heaven is paradise as Jesus told the thief on the cross. Luke 23 verse 43. Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise. Throughout the bible heaven is referenced as a place where people go who have trusted the Lord Jesus Christ has their savior. The bible says Heaven is a joyful place, a beautiful place, and a wonderful place to be. The Bible calls a Christian's death a graduation. Leaving this world for a much better place! Side Note: As far as what Heaven would look like, that I do not know. I do know that I have fished in some of the most beautiful country in the world and that God created it. I would think that Heaven would be somewhat like that.

I don't have a particular picture in my head of how it must look, but the fishing would always be awesome!

If you believe the Bible then you know Heaven has streets and what they look like. You're referring to the New Jerusalem which shall descend from heaven to earth (Revelation 21:21 ) . This "city" will be the primary residence of God and His Saints . "Heaven" is much more than walking down golden streets . The fact that our most prized metal is under foot should help us understand that the Glory of living in His presence will put all our other aspirations to shame . I can only imagine .

Keep in mind we will have physical form. So my grandfather died at 52. My grandma at 94. How does that meeting go? I’m serious. I’ve never understood in what form will we be in?
