1 | Do those in heaven know what's happening | Heb 12:1 | kalos | 661 | ||
Do those in heaven know what's happening on earth? ...Some teach that our deceased Christian loved ones can see us from heaven. They frequently cite from Hebrews 12:1, which says: "Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us . . . run with endurance the race that is set before us." ...They interpret that to mean our departed loved ones watch us like spectators do in a stadium, seeing our every move and cheering us on. While that may seem comforting, is the Bible really teaching that? |

2 | Do those in heaven know what's happening | Heb 12:1 | jg8ball | 672 | ||
I don't think that this was meant to be interpreted that way and since there are no other passages that mention that we are watched from Heaven (at least none that I am aware of), I would tend to interpret it more as way to mention all the great and faithfull people mentioned in the previous chapter. Although I don't think this verse talks about it, I am posting a question about a similar topic in reference to a tv show called "Crossing Over". |
