The answer to the question above is the second option: heaven is a place of eternal joy, light, and leisure. This is the theme of the poem "Heaven" written by George Herbert. In this poem, the speaker is actually a man who is living on this Earth. This focuses on the man's way to heaven's door and that the only mediator between him and God is Jesus Christ.
