will exist the same way as you do now in Heaven. To be in a corporreal form in Heaven? You're body exists on this plane. Does your soul have legs? Does it need to it? How can you justify the assumption that you will exist in heaven forever? Especially as a human!

Phantom limbs can still feel pain.
Perhaps our souls have legs. Or perhaps our brain is just programmed to be in human shape. Or maybe out spirit is set in human shape.
Just some thoughts. I can be just as wrong as every other answer to your question.

Well I don't believe that souls will have a corporreal form in heaven. I do know that everyone has a soul/spirit/energy. It is in a very abstract form. So after one dies the corporreal form goes away and your left with the soul/spirit/energy. It goes places...could be heaven, could be here, could be many different places. Now since there is no real way to know it all exists in heaven forever until you die...that is something people believe in on faith. Made up or imagined as some may put it.

A) You got no idea WHAT Heaven's like. Neither does anyone else, so how can you state so categorically that human bodies cannot exist there?
B) Christ's body was glorified and when He rose to heaven that there body went with Him.
C) Revelation makes it clear that there will be a new heaven AND a new earth. Earth without material lifeforms is nothing but a big, bare rock. Big deal! There will HAVE to be lifeforms, glorified, but still lifeforms on that new earth, including US. And since the technical definition of heaven is not a place but a being with God, well, I guess He'll walk among us as He used to do before we got so full of ourselves.

A belief in God and in Heaven does NOT mean that I believe that I will exist the same way as you do now in Heaven. Don't base your assumptions about Christians on your own "understanding" of them.

The New Testament teaching
The New Testament contains several statements that confirm that the wicked will die-permanently. In Matthew 7:13-14, in exhorting His disciples to choose the way that leads to life, Jesus states that the end of those who do not choose life is destruction. He contrasts that path with the way of righteousness, telling us "narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."
Romans 6:23 is one of the best-known verses of the Bible. Yet many people either overlook what it plainly says or read into it an entirely different meaning. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
This verse plainly tells us two crucial truths. First, the punishment of the wicked is death, not a life of eternal suffering in another place. Second, we do not already have eternal life. It is something God chooses to give us. We see from this verse that a fleshly human being has nothing about him that is immortal; God must give eternal life to us through our Savior, Jesus the Messiah. In 1 Timothy 6:16 Paul also tells us that God alone has immortality.

God is a bit more genius than that. Our bodies will reunite with our souls at the end of the world in the last judgment so that we can fully enjoy both body and soul in the Splendors of Heaven or suffer fully body and soul in the miseries of hell. Nothing is impossible with God.
How can the Miraculous Staircase in the Loredo Chapel in New Mexico stand without a central support? It defies our human laws of gravity and yet it stands there without falling upon itself. God is not bound by human laws.

We won't the Bible says that we will receive glorified bodies when we get to heaven. We will be not know the limitations that we know down here on earth. My sould doesn't have legs. I think the other question has a typo in it. Therefore, I can't answer it. We will exist in heaven but not in a corporeal sense but in a spiritual sense.

I don't believe I will exist the same way as I do now. I believe Heaven is a state of being. We won't be human there, we'd just be in the presence of God as a spiritual being. We don't have any physical parts, we just "are".

Believing in "Heaven" doesn't necessarily mean that you believe you will have a body. For some, Heaven is believed to be a new state of being, one that experiences a more substantial relationship with the creator.

Belief in God is Faith. It is an acceptance of a pure relationship with your Creator.
You don't justify or assume that you will exist in a place called heaven - You only goes along with your faith that your Creator shall take care of you wherever He desire you to be cause you know that your God is all-knowing.
Thinking or expecting what you would look-like in your next life would only be a waste of time and energy.
