No remembrance

<< < (4/4)

Sorin:

--- Quote from: SandyFla ---Just thinking this morning ... People who believe in hell have to believe we won't remember some things in the next life. After all, how could we be happy in heaven knowing that some of our loved ones are burning in hell? My mom used to tell me that we won't remember those people.  :( It's just another way they twist Scripture.

Yeah but we know "those people" now, so who in their right mind... I take that back, who would want to worship a God that you know ( or think you know) will torture people like that. I mean do they not see how sick that is? I'd rather be in hell with my loved ones than in heaven without them.  :evil:

mustardseed:
It doesn't mean you won't remember your past life. You couldn't show mercy to others later if you don't remember what you've been through.

Rom 11:30  For as ye in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
Rom 11:31  even so have these also now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they also may now obtain mercy.

It means your sins will not be remembered by God.


Isa 43:25  I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake; and I will not remember thy sins.

Brett:

--- Quote from: SandyFla ---"That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy." - Isaiah 65:16-18

Does the part in bold really mean we will not remember our life in this world when the next begins? If so, of what use is the knowledge of evil in order for us to know good?

Good question. What about,

2 Corinthians 5:10 NKJV

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad .

This verse show that we will remember what we have done after the resurrection. It does not say in Isaiah about person (we) will not remember. God will not remember our sins. I think it is about God Himself of what Isaiah said.
