Heaven and afterlife question for those who believe people live there in our physical bodies?

Question

This is only for those who believe heaven will be a physical place where people will live in physical bodies together with others also in their physical selves.
1. If a widow remarries and all three/four of them go to heaven how does this work out there logistically?
2. What are the ages of the bodies of people of different generations? eg. on earth,great- grandma died at 13, grandpa & grandma died at, say, 18 and 80, dad at 50, and children at negative 0.5 (miscarried), 10, and 100. When they meet each other in heaven how old will their physical bodies be, and will they age or be frozen in age?
3. Will physical/mental characteristics of the earthly body stay or change - short/tall, thin/obese, autistic/mentally handicapped; will Helen Keller, if in heaven, see and hear? Will the result of an undesired earthly mastectomy remain or that of a desired circumcision?

Answer 1

How long did it take you to come up with all that?

Answer 2

As far as age, my guess is that babies are given a resurrection body that is “fast-forwarded” to the “ideal age”, just as those who die at an old age are "re-wound" to the ideal age. I do not think there will be any children or elderly people in heaven. What is the ideal age? I do not know, again, this concept is not specifically biblical...i would guess around 30. Some guess 33 since that is approximately the age Jesus was when he died.

we aer not told exactly what we will look like in the next life, as to what age we will appear to be, nor if we will look thin or fat. But while many believe that we will bear some resemblance to what we look like now (based on the analogy each seed bears its own type of plant, i.e., a corn seed produces a corn plant) - we do know that in whatever ways our appearance or health has been altered as a result of sin (whether because of overeating or not eating right, hereditary malformations, injuries, aging, etc.), these traits will not be carried over into our appearance or health in the next life.

Answer 3

1. I think you missed part of the Marriage Vows.. Until Death Do US Part...

2. I believe that we will be resurrected with a perfected body, no defects, no disease marks, etc.. so I guess we'll look about like age 30 or so (don't really know)...

3. I think that our defects will be taken away.. our Physical body will conform to the shape and look of our Spiritual body.. I also believe that we ALL lived in Heaven with Heavenly Father prior to coming to Earth to get the gift of a Physical body.. and that we lose our memory of being there so that we can be tested.. but when we return our memory will come back and we will remember people that we know now and from that time also...

By the way.. Resurrection is the reason I don't believe in Reincarnation.. I only need ONE body... and Jesus Christ was resurrected.. and HE has a Physical body (even after going to Heaven and coming back)

Answer 4

The ones who go to heaven are given spiritual bodies that are invisible to us. Those whose resurrection is on earth will receive fleshly bodies. There is a standard age which all will attain to as set by God. We would be similar to how we are now, imperfections will be removed, ones who are blind will be made to see, those who are deaf will be made to hear, etc. We will be brought to perfection and there will be no more tears and pain, no mourning, no more sickness or death. If you are a survivor of Armageddon and are married and your spouse also survives, you will remain married. If a spouse dies and will be resurrected, if you wish to be with your loved one in God's new earth, you should not remarry.

Answer 5

HEAVENLY FIRST RESURRECTED FOR NEW HEAVENS AND EARTHLY FOR THE NEW EARTH

EARTHLY:
Job 19:25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: 26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: Gen.3:19; Acts 17:31; 24:15; John 5:26-29; Dan.12:2; Isa 26:19; Eze.37:12-14;
Job 34:14 If he set his heart upon man, if he gather unto himself his spirit and his breath; 15 All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust.
Psm.104:29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust. 30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth.
Rev.11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
HEAVENLY:
Luke 20:34-36; Mark 13:27; Heb.12:22-24; Rev.3:12; Rev.14:1-7; 20:1-6; The heavenly. John 6:39,40,44; 14:3; Michael of Jude 9; and Dan.12:1-13; end times is from 2500 to 2670 after Babylon World Empire #3 ends kings [ 606 BCE ]; Satan is cast down at Rev.12:1-12; at 2520 years after, and has a short time in the end time, Michael there to the caught up to be with Jesus at his second coming 1Thes.4:15-17; The final of the heavenly.

BIBLE IS BIBLE AND RELIGION IS RELIGION, WHICH IS TRUTH?

Answer 6

The mormons believe that it will only happen utnil we are resurected, and all bodies of all rightious people will be made perfect, no matter how they looked. (Fat, skinny, short, handicapped, cremated, or whatever happend....) A widow will only get to be with the one man to whom she is sealed to in the temple, or she may be able to choose. God knows. He will figure that out. Your second question is no one knows what age our bodies will be, the point is the spirit will be there... Don't worry. Pray about whatever bothers you, but God is number one, the big man upstairs watching you!

Answer 7

Isaiah chapter 35
Revelation 21:2-7
Ezekiel 37:26-28

Answer 8

1. after a person dies, there is no more marriage..they all belong to God and God belongs to them.
2. no one can know that for sure until they die and if they go to heaven.
3. no one can know that until htey go to heaven but i think that if someone was blind or deaf that they would be able to see and hear when they got to heaven..like if they had cancer or something, they wouldnt have that anymore once they were in heaven

i dont believe in physical bodies right when you die, i believe you have a soul, but i believe that after Jesus's second coming, then all the bodies will rise again and we will have our bodies again.

Answer 9

1A. In my church we have the ability to be sealed for time and all eternity. If I married 3 women, then divorced the first two, but was sealed to the third she would be the only one to be with me. If I was not sealed to her, it is unknown to me. Afterall, they usually state until death do we part. (I hate that)

2A. I believe we will about be returned to our best state. Somehow I picture 21 or so.

3A. Everything will be made whole again. If you are blind, you can see. If you are lame, you can walk. If you are fat, you will return to your best possible state. Etc.

Answer 10

In Matthew it says that we will be like the angels who neither marry nor are given in marriage.
We will be given spiritual bodies when we go to heaven.
