Proverbs 10:30

Never be removed. Solomon was speaking primarily of the condition of the two classes in this life, though his statement is true also regarding the future life. Though the righteous are continually being removed by death, and all the righteous together will be taken to heaven for the duration of the millennium (Rev. 20: l), still they are as surely established as the inheritors and owners of this earth as if they had never left it. Their removal in death is only a sleep, their visit to heaven no more than a brief stay in the Father's house before they take up their abode for eternity upon the earth. This world has never really ceased to be their home (see Isa. 45:18).

The wicked have set their hearts upon a worldly way of life. Their ideal of eternal life is an existence in which they may live as sensually and greedily as in this present life. The sinner would not be happy in God's presence. Heaven would hold no pleasure for him. He is shut out by his own unfitness for the holy environment.
