1 | In Heaven will we know each other as now | 1 Cor 13:12 | followerof christ | 184802 | ||
In Luke 16:19- Jesus tells the story of a certain rich man and a beggar named Lazarus. The rich man being in hell tormented and in need of water still tries to bully Lazarus into serving him, which shows after death he hasn't changed much at that point. He also recognizes Abraham a man he most likely would not have know during his life. So I submit this for your thought that this passage shows us that (although these men had not been in heaven) they were still familiar to each other. Their physical attributes had not changed so much they were beyond being known to each other. Lazarus was no longer poorly dressed and hungry, and the rich man no longer wore purple, their positions changed but Lazarus knew who spoke to him and the rich man still wanted to be served. Also, after Jesus returned and appeared to Thomas, He said to touch the wounds on His hands so although they were not bloody sores they were still there and the only time He was not recognized was when He blinded the eyes of the people. So from these examples I would conclude that in Heaven we shall have a few less wrinkles and the extra pounds will be gone, those things that were broken will be restored but we will not physically be so different from here. In Genesis God the Father said Let us make man in our image, He made us to look like Him. Later He says Before the foundations of the world were framed I had a plan for you a plan for good not evil and plan to bless you. That being true why would He change you in Heaven when He already made you to look like Him? He already made you who He wants you to be. Spring is about to begin and soon buds will be on the trees, when you look out the window consider this so far science has proven there are 7 million different shades of colors our eyes can detect even though our brains don't over load because of the multitude of them. Our Holy Father made color because He loves us so much that 1 wasn't enough. Before the earth, before time, before everything we know He created you so that He could love you and be loved by you. Why would He want to change you now? |
