No

 

[Harry123]

No

“No” what?

“No” there is no sin …or “no” the bible doesn’t teach it (in which case there theoretically might be sin)?

 

[TimothyH]

No sin in heaven.

***But nothing unclean shall enter it, nor any one who practices abomination or falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life. *(Revelation 21:27)

[edward_george]

Heaven is not a place in the usual geographic sense. It is a state of being in union with God. Sin is incompatible with the goodness of God. Sin lessens or cuts off union with God. So there could be no sin in heaven.

[Angela77]

Souls do not enter in to Heaven until they have been purified so that they may be in union with God. So we sin lots on earth, then, provided we haven’t died in a state of mortal sin, we go to Purgatory, where we are purified. Once we’re purified, we’re done with sin and it’s onward to Heaven from there. So that’s why there wouldn’t be sin in Heaven—because you’re ready to be with God.
