What does it mean to be 'meet for heaven'?

Answered in 1 source

Being 'meet for heaven' means being spiritually transformed and conformed to the likeness of Christ.

To be 'meet for heaven' (Colossians 1:12) signifies the necessity of inner transformation and holiness. It implies that believers are being sanctified and conformed to the image of Christ, which prepares them for eternal fellowship with God. The conflict between the old and new natures is recognized, where the believer longs for deliverance from sin. This sanctification process involves a desire to mortify sin and to cultivate holiness, reflecting the inward change that makes one fit for the eternal state of glory in heaven.
