I may be the only one...

I remember being a kid and wondering about the "afterlife" or whatever label you want to give it. I was taught that it would be paradise, nirvana, all that good stuff. Why wouldn't it be? God made it. Christ is in charge. How awesome?
Who would be there? All the good Christians. Now I know EVERYONE will be there eventually. I'm cool with that. Will we all recognize each other? Will I know I'm looking at my grandparents? My wife? My kids? Will we care who each other is? Will we be able to fly around the universe and explore the beauty that God has created? I hope so!
Does anyone here know of any Biblical examples or answers on this? Just wondering...just like when I was a kid.

Hey there Sorin!
I was so glad to read you post, it means that I am not alone in my struggles!
Honesty is something that I appreciate the more as I get older, it help others in their struggles too!
I hate it when people put on make up for the camera, it might look nice but it makes the rest of us feel worse about ourselves.
To quote an old Beatles song, "It's a fool who play it cool by making this world a little colder"
Don't worry Sorin it will pass!
my problem is if I overcome, I don't really want to rule and have responsability, I just want to continue to write music and have fun drinking beer and jamming with my buddies, but it's only in this life where school is the best years of your life!
1Co 13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
1Co 13:10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
1Co 13:11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
1Co 13:12 For now we see in a mirror dimly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
God adores you Sorin, you are the apple of His eye!
Ps. I wish there was a spell check!

MM,
PM one of the admins or moderators. I am a member of another forum with this software and there is spell check at the bottom of the page. Ask if we can get spell check, I know it would help me sometimes.
Sincerely,

Hi Captain,
Good to see your first post :)
That is an interesting concept you have there,
can't say I've ever thought of it that way :-[
Hi Marty,
I keep my dictionary close at hand :)
And you know I don't think will we have any responsibilities that we do not desire and enjoy doing to serve with Christ. Whether we will think of the responsibilty differently or have only the kind that we have natural abilities in, I don't know. But I believe what ever we are doing there in no way will be something we dislike. As Christ was given all power and authority in heaven and earth, I think we will have great power over the physical things and the spiritual realm as well. I would think that the judging of people and angels will be a joy to bring these being to the knowledge of the truth.
Maybe the way it will be, is that you will be sent to those you have something in common with, and you can relate to them and they to you?
Well just some thoughts :)
mercy, peace, and love
Kat

This is my first post, although I have been a lurker for some time now! Enjoying your loving and poignant words that continue to move me. Well, Jesus did say there would be no marriage in the resurrection, but, he never said we wouldn't have loves, companions, families and friends. I don't think God would show us such immense love for others, if it was not to continue and grow.
Your friend in Christ,
Lisa
