Answer 1

If they are still all alive - then cherish every moment with them because you never know when thier time will come to pass over.

We all grow old (if we're lucky) and die, so we get to spend a long "lifetime" with our loved ones before we or they, pass over.

I doubt you have ever lost anyone that you truly love and that you really want to be with forever. You may think differently if (God forbid) you were to lose your loved one/s.

I lost someone and i just want to know they are ok wherever they have gone and that hopefully we will be reunited some day. It may sound stupid to you if you have not experienced grief yet - but grief is wretched. My beliefs provide me with comfort and is helping to heal the pain....but each to thier own. My beliefs work for me.

Jesus is just one prophet from one religion. All people from all walks of life and religions from the beginning of time, and who accept God, pass over onto the other side in a spiritual form when they die.

Heaven as you call it; is what I would call a spiritual state of consiousness. No, we have no need for material things when we are there and they do not exist there anyway. It is a place for advanced spirtual learning but you are not a spiritualist so with due respect, I would not expect you to understand this concept presently.

You are obviously asking yourself these questions for a reason - and this is good - that is why we all have the gift of free will - you should research more and make your own mind up about what you do or do not believe.

Answer 2

1. I believe in the restoration of an earthly paradise not heaven. So, it is not hard for me to imagine seing my Mom, Grandma, and Grandpa live again. We eat and be merry again

2. Heaven exists. But, it is only for the spirits and some humans called by God to rule w/ Christ.

According to the Bible there will be a resurrection of the bad, the good, and yes--the caveman. It would be fun having them around.

3. Those who died before Christ--like Noah, Moses, etc--will be resurrected here on earth. I'd like to talk to them. They could give me info of where really was the ark, or how did Moses feel when the Red sea was split wide open.

4. In heaven, there is no beer. That's why we drink it here. Horse racing is done here, not there.

Answer 3

Those are a lot of questions. It's great for you that the only people that you'd want to see in heaven are your grandparents. I've lost a lot of people that I loved, that I can't WAIT to see again. BUT the main reason I serve God is this:
I want to be where He is. I want to be in a place that is peace, joy, wonder, illumination and beauty, because that's what God is.

As for the rest of your questions, I just don't know, I really don't. I don't think anyone really does, even though there are a lot of theories.
I don't know what people do in heaven...but I don't suppose it would make any difference what they do or do not do. Heaven, I'm sure, is a peaceful, and content place. The Bible says that there is no sorrow there, no reason for sorrow, and the people are happy. So I imagine that whatever IS there makes people happy.
For me, being in the presence of God would be enough.

Answer 4

your blessed with a family but, what would happen if your wife and children died. You will just have a short number of years with them. Or that when you die, you can live forever with them in the next life. Wich do u think is better. both added up or just one life with them. And don't worry about people in the past. Because our cavemen were Adan and Eve. They knew God. There is no such thing as a brain-less human, that wouldn't make us human at all becasue if so there would be no chimps because they would had all evolve to us. Yes maybe Adan and Eve were ugglier than anything on earth, but they were humans.

Answer 5

Depends if you are talking of eternal heaven or the Material Heaven. There is a material heaven (part of creation) and an eternal spiritual world. Only people who are completely finished with the ups and downs of material existence go to the eternal one. The material one is for those who have good Karma. Hell is for bad karma (no one goes there eternally though) and earth is for a combination of both good and bad (Karma is reaction to your previous actions. So if one wants to get rid of all Karma one has to Chant the names of God (Krishna Allah Jehovah etc.) and purify ones karma and quit sinning. If one thinks or says Gods name at time of death they will go to the eternal heaven where there is no more birth death old age or disease. We are not these bodies we are spirit souls though we have spiritual bodies. for more info to to http://www.stephen-knapp.com get the book How the universe was Created and our Purpose in it.

Answer 6

You wanna go to heaven because God's been working on it way longer than He ever worked on Earth, and look how cool Earth is! God only knows the hearts of those who lived before Jesus. Some believe they went to a type of purgatory for a while. Good luck figuring out what heaven'll be like, but it WON'T be boring.

Answer 7

I think that we have lived many lives, and we are the same soulsm as the cave men.
I think animals cross over, not bugs n crap.
I think everyone goes to heaven even the worst of us. I just think we cannot find our way there, we don't want to go, or we don't know we are dead.
When you pass you lose your heavy weight, and all your pain. I think there is lots to do on the other side. I think it is all for your soul.

I think we are in hell. Maybe we did something in our past life that made us go to hell. Maybe we have to keep coming back till we get it right. As long as we are selfish, and don't care for eachother we will come back.

You never know.

I do know that I want to go I am tired of holding up my heavy *** head, and I am so sick of the bullshit. Humans are stupid as can be.

Wait does that make me an alien?

Answer 8

what about when all five of you are dead. neither them nor you can live forever in this body.

anyone who has ever had faith in God and faith that he would send a savour to the world as he promised adam and eve while he was telling them their punishment for disobeying him.will be saved and go to heaven for when jesus died he took all the sins of the world. john 3 v16 says whoever beileves in God's only begotten son will be saved. it does not say they have to live after jesus birth or death. for example noah and abraham were saved and adam and eve probally were too.

as for what we will do in heaven other than worship God i don't know.

Answer 9

In your mind you dont see heaven as overcrowded only the people that has gone before you that you know and you are lead to believe that they are waiting for you and you will love them.animals as well.
I just think thats its what you are brought up to believe its a bit of brainwashing really.But we dont see it that way.
Only after we are gone will we know that question!!
OR NOT AS MAY BE THE CASE
When the time comes for us all that might be it ,no afterlife nothing.
We will never know.

Answer 10

Heaven is a place that God created for those who accept and believe in Him... so thats where the believers will go... as for the unbelievers, they will go to a very real place called hell..

The ONLY way to get out of going to hell is
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved... Acts 16:31
Heaven is a place where believers and angels will praise and glorify God forever.. AND No, they won't have beer....

I'll be praying for u, and know this, God loves you!! :)
