Ok..is this true or not? A christian married to a non christian........?

Question

WILL NOT REMEMBER THEIR SPOUSE ONCE THEY GET TO HEAVEN?
I JUST READ SOMETHING TO THIS EFFECT IN ANOTHER QUESTION AND AM WONDERING IF IT IS TRUE AND WHERE CAN I FIND THE REFERENCE TO THIS IN THE BIBLE?

Answer 1

not true

Answer 2

If you want to look at what Jesus said about heaven and marriage, just look up Mark 12, 18-27 where he answers the Sadducees when asked about who a woman would be married to in heaven if she was married more than once. Specifically, verse 25 says "For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven." Basically, what he's saying is that you aren't married in heaven. You will recognize people that you know here, but will not have a "spouse". Will we remember anyone that didn't make it to heaven? That's a good question, and I don't know the answer to that. But I can't imagine that God would erase every memory that included someone we knew that didn't go to heaven.

Answer 3

That might be a variation on something they read in the Bible. How anyone has this information, I have no idea. If you're not a Christian, you might not get into heaven and won't be seeing your spouse any longer anyway. Getting into Heaven implies that you're a Christian and you'd be seeing them and they'd remember you, right? I'm a Christian but answers like the one poeple gave you irritate me.

Answer 4

Religion is not about rules and regulations. IT is about what is in your heart when you make decisions. If someone loves someone, you will never be punished for it. Why are we like this? Yes it is true, you break a commandment, that is bad. But, everything else is game as long as you have goodness in your heart when you make that decision. Some of the most Christian people that I have met in my life have been non-Christians... something to think about. They were good people just because they were good people, not because they thought it would get them into heaven. More people should think like this. Good luck in your quest, God will not turn his back on anyone that lived their life with Christian values. You can save 1 million lives, but if you did not have a pure heart when you made the decision, it will not be rewarded. Understand?

Answer 5

Unless someone has been to "Heaven" how can anyone answer that question? I do not see the connection between someone being a different religion and you having a bad memory in "Heaven". If you have friends and neighbors that are of a different religion will you not remember them as well. Organized religion is there to scare; they do not want you to talk to people to talk to people outside your cult or you are going to hell. Expand your mind, read about all religions, even the small pagan Earth based ones, worship the world around you and ALL of the people in it and you will have a happier life.

Answer 6

I don't believe that for one second. I TOTALLY believe that me an my spouse will know each other but not in the biblical sense ;) I can't see God making us forget one another. I know that we will separate at physical death but spiritually we ALL are one..the body of Christ. I don't think that we will not know each other. There was a scripture where there was someone in Hell and wanted to warn his family about Hell because he went there and didn't want his family members to go there. And that is in one of the Gospels. So if the person who went to Hell can remember his living family members then I am sure that we will be able to remember our family members in Heaven. Isn't that what we all cling to when we lose our loved ones that one day we will see them again in Heaven?

Answer 7

When the sadducees were trying to trick Jesus with the "what if" question about the woman married seven times and widowed seven times Jesus said in Heaven there is no marrying and giving in marriage. That is really the only thing I can think of right now unless you count where one will be taken and one left behind. Also He will wipe away every tear from our eyes.... if your loved one was in hell and you were in heaven it would be heartbreaking and since He is so very tender to his own I would think probably that is the truth...but I can wait and just keep praying for my loved ones.

Answer 8

I have heard that no one will be married in heaven...don't know where in the Bible it says it, but I believe it's in the Old Testament. I don't like that idea, but if my spouse wasn't in heaven and I was, I'd be pretty sad that he wasn't there. And there is no sadness in heaven.

So it makes me wonder if we will remember anything from this life in heaven. If our loved ones don't make it there, how can we be totally happy?

Answer 9

Absolutely not true. When you get to Heaven you will have
the mind of Christ. In other words you will be a super genius.
If anyone asks you a question, you will always have the best
answer. 1 John 3;2.
I Corinthians 13;8a, Love never fails.

Answer 10

Read Luke 16:22-26. and Rev21:4 Pay attention to Luke 16:26 where is says between us and you there is a great gulf fixed. and Rev Neither sorrow nor crying neither shall there be any more pain for the former things are passed away . One of the fromer things is the memory of all of your loved ones who did not make it, if you could remember them there would be great sorrow and just above it says NO more sorrow

Answer 11

This is a very complicated question with MANY answers depending on where your faith is, and how strong it is...but the last answer is the easiest...scripture says "there will be no sorrow in heaven" and to know your loved one isn't there would bring sorrow, but if you are an atheist you won't be there anyway....so the point is mute.
