Q: In heaven, are we all equals? What exactly does that entail?

A:  In essence, we are all equals as we are all sinners and only enter heaven through the grace of Jesus Christ.  However, the Bible does talk about different levels of rewards.

Revelation 22:12 says,

“Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done." 

This indicates that Jesus will reward each person differently.  This is not a matter of salvation (every believer receives this), but it shows us that there will be a time that all will essentially reap what they sow.  Exactly what those rewards are are unknown. 

And so although all Christians are granted eternity in heaven, not all Christians are the same in a sense that some simply believe, but others believe and DO!
