Going to heaven is not the hope of the believer, and Timothy Alberino breaks down exactly why that idea is closer to gnosticism than anything found in scripture. The real gospel of Christ is not about escaping to a spiritual realm after death. It is about something far more physical, far more personal, and far more extraordinary: the redemption, reconciliation, and complete restoration of mankind to sonship in the family of God.
In this teaching, Alberino walks through the three-part arc of the gospel: we were purchased back from condemnation (redemption), restored to fellowship with the Father (reconciliation), and will be physically remade at the resurrection to the original genetic blueprint of Adam (restoration). He unpacks why the parable of the Prodigal Son is the perfect portrait of this entire story, why being born again means literal physical resurrection and not a moral reorientation, and why the primary theme of every apostolic letter is the resurrection of the dead, not going to heaven.
If you have ever felt that the gospel is far bigger than what gets preached from most pulpits, this teaching puts every piece of the story together. The hope of the early church was not heaven. It was resurrection. And there is nothing more extraordinary in scripture than that promise.
