Subject: Do you know people in heaven? |
Bible Note: Hoping for what is known only from earthly experience is hardly a quality example of truly wondering what heaven is like! I sure hope you are not under the impression that you have given scriptural evidence to back up your idea that your pets and loved ones will be known in heaven. My observation is that you talk lots about your belief's but you don't evidence these so they can be shared by someone else. Mysteries are mysteries. By the way which position is truly embracing the "hope of glory and mystery of godliness", the one that wants heaven inclued knowns from now or the position that doesn't know who will be recognizable or not and doesn't care? Which position is most consistent with the gospel of grace, the the (first) example that wants specific things to be part of the experience or the (second) example that hopes for God only, and that by faith. An experience is what heaven will not be because experience is in time and space. When we are in eternity we will be outside of time and space in dimensioned history. The whole thing is upside down from our current thinking. How could it really be any other way... |
