Hey do you think there's technology in Heaven? Whenever I see painting portraying Heaven it always has angels flying around with harps and other musical instruments. If God is the Alpha and the Omega why did he not include technology (the electric kind, not ancient tools and that kind) into his perfect world?

Take a look at the first chapter of Ezekiel (as well as the rest of that book) and see if you don't recognize some pretty advanced technology in there.

Then jump back to Exodus and read the description of what Moses sees on top of Mt. Sinai, when he takes the elders up there for a little lunch on the lawn, with God.

Then go back to Genesis and see if you can figure out what generated the first rainbow in the sky.

And then there is that mysterious Christmas "star".

To wrap up your biblical technology study, go to the acts of the apostles, and see if you can tell what created the winds and thunder, and pillars of smoke that hovered over Jersusalem on Pentecost, and later stopped by to pick up the Blessed Virgin Mary in revelation 11 & 12.

Paintings are stupid if you think about it, really!!!
I took a year of ART history. I love art and can draw.
But, if you just take a painting at face value without looking into the meaning symbolism, then one must conclude that paintings especially religious ones are of the most stupid things in the world.

You need to study the time-period of the art work and the symbolism.

I my opinion, those Angels should have been flying around with Toothbrushes and coffee

Dude, God has amps cranking up praise music that our minds can't wrap themselves around. Remember in 2 Corinthians 12 when Paul wrote about a man who had a vision of heaven and heard "inexpressible things, things that man is not permitted to tell"? (verse 4) I think the reason that man or anyone else would "not be permitted to tell" such things isn't because they are secret and we aren't entitled to such knowledge (we will find out for ourselves someday anyway if we persevere in the faith), but I think this verse is saying that what that man saw absolutely cannot be put into human words. Our earthly knowledge and language cannot describe the things of God because they totally defy words. Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 2:9 that we have absolutely no clue and cannot wrap our minds around or even imagine what God has planned for us (Pastor Chad's paraphrase). It will make perfect sense to us once we've experienced it, but even then we will totally stand in awe of God. In technological terms, it's going to be an upgrade we never imagined. :-)

Won't need it, won't want it. The paintings you see are just that...paintings aka guess work. Read what the Bible has to say about Heaven. On earth gold is considered of tremendous value and beauty. On earth our streets are paved with cement, rock, brick, oil products, asphalt. This is what we drive our dirty car tires on...Not too pretty and not so valuable. In Heaven the streets are paved with GOLD Beautiful, valuable gold.. That alone is just a glimpse of the beauty of Heaven. And that's just the streets! I think other things technology etc. will follow the same way. I don't think we need to worry about it.

JOHN 1
3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.


Yes there is technology in heaven but God is greater in such a way that we don't need to use technology in heaven.

It is meant to be used here on earth as a tool to grow closer to God... such as using computers to help feed the hungry. Bringing people and countries together to bring cultures together and changing our way of life for Godly things such as kindness and love and peace.

I don't believe there will be a need for such frivolous things in heaven like, televisions and DVD players. There will be so much to do there and things we haven't experienced before. I think we will all be to busy being close to our loved ones who left and everything that we enjoyed in the flesh, won't be something that we will enjoy there because we will have a glorified body.

I have a feeling that not only did God inspire men to write the bible but also that He inspired men to invent and that all technology we see today in the world was in inspired by God through imaginations and dreams, ideas and visions. In heaven there could be things we have never in our wildest dreams could imagine or comprehend.

Heaven runs on God, not electricity.

NOTE to Johnny: Apparently you are acknowledging God with your claims, yet you state your source to be atheism. Absurd.

What will you do if you find they already have Playstation 46?

You'll have some catching up to do. (And you'll have to bust out some cash and buy your RF gaming suit.)
