re: Random thought about Heaven - how old are you up there?

How will the widow or widower who gets remarried issue be handled? Does he get multiple wives in their prime up there?

There was just a movie where a WW2 widow remarried, lives with the guy 50 years or whatever, she dies and gets to heaven and both her husbands are up there like WTF.

Didn’t watch it because it looked like another retelling of the common modern trope where “woman finds loophole to be with two men without breaking any rules”, but it does pretty much play into your question.

Based on my understanding of the Bible marriage is a human thing and isn’t part of our experience in heaven but that will probably not sit well with many people.

Do you have other children?

Yes, I have 1 other, an 8 year old son.
Hard trying to keep his life normal and trying to gauge how he is dealing with it all.

I tell myself every morning on my drive to work, that she is better off where she is. She is in no more pain
She had a rare form of epilepsy, so she suffered from apneic seizures, as well as developmental delays (couldn't walk, talk, or eat)
She was on 8 different seizure meds, as well as a feeding (G) tube, 3 different therapies a day, etc...

If there are no animals in heaven then explain where Jesus will get his white horse from when He returns? Rent it? Steal it?

Sorry to hear this brother, that's a pain that just can't be measured.

When you see your daughter again she'll appear in her perfect form in alignment with the lord, as you will to her, just as Jesus was after the resurrection. What that exactly that "glorious body" is, well we're just not supposed to know that yet.

Philippians 3:21 contains the promise that Jesus “will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.” After His resurrection, Jesus was recognizable for who He was. His body was transformed, but it was still His body. The same will hold true for us in the resurrection.

I don't believe that children who die will remain children, they will have advanced to an older adult age, because we will all be aware of our heavenly surroundings, and that we are there to worship and exalt the Lord

I don't believe you will know the family you had on Earth. That would be pretty disappointing to not see your dad and think Darn, dad's burning in hell.

I really hope mine is the one I had before I got old, wrinkled, and lumpy.

I assume you can be whatever you want, like a magic force ghost.

If the afterlife exists, in no way can we comprehend in our human brains. I hate when religious types try and describe it as gold roads, green grass, etc. All earthly things

I seem to recall Mormon theology says aged in the physical prime of one’s life.

Mid to late 30s

I’d be in for that age forever if I could get it.
