What does the Bible say about being made ready for heaven?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that Christians are being prepared for heaven through the work of Christ, who is the architect of our salvation.

In Philippians 3:20-21, Paul emphasizes that our citizenship is in heaven and that we look for Christ to transform our lowly bodies into glorious ones. This transformation is part of being made ready for our eternal home, and it signifies that Christ does all the work necessary to prepare us. In 1 Kings 6:7, we are likened to stones that are meticulously prepared—made ready—before being placed in the spiritual house. This indicates that our readiness for heaven is not based on our efforts, but on Christ's sovereign grace and perfect planning.
