If you read somewhere (I don't recall it right now) in the Bible, it says that The Lord knew all of Us before being born!..So We for sure existed before coming to this earth!...\n\nIf you ask me as a personal question I believe we are souls, Angels, and that we are being tested in this Earth to see if we deserve to be with The Lord (Jesus) for the rest of eternity!...\n\nI think Jesus is doing a cleansing in the "universe-heaven" after Satan was expelled from heaven (remember he was God's favorite angel and was in charge of the music, but he tried to be better than God)!..It's a plan, it's a process!...I think when God put all of humans in this earth, He somehow erased our minds so we can't recall anything but once We "die" has humans!...\n\nI think We are souls, but We're also Light!...

no, the bible says His ways are above our ways, talking about God. There are somethings we wont know until we get to heaven.

Yes 100%. I have eternal life and I know that I will be with the Lord Jesus Christ in heaven when I die because I have made Christ Lord and Savior of my life and I have grown closer in my relationship with Him.

Regardless . . .  you get to be with Jesus. How glorious will that be? Can't wait for whatever happens, I will be in awe of that day.

Yes, I have met someone that has so much in common with me.  It's as if we have known each other for years.  We have the same beliefs, values, and morals.  Our family life is similiar.  I think that you can meet a friend almost any where.  It's not some hard to fathom idea!  I believe everything is orchestrated by God, and if it's meant for your paths to cross; then you'll meet.  Even if it's miles away, and a unseen face!

In heaven, we aren't married or given in marriage anymore.  So, neither of you would be "with" her in the sense of being married to her.  That's one reason why, in marriage vows, we say "till death do us part".  Death severs that relationship permanently.  You'll still know and love each other when you get to heaven, but not in a romantic or sexual way anymore.  No one will.

That's a good question. According to these people, you have to have a personal relatioship with jesus to get into heaven

>>Will we have any memory of what took place on earth? \n\nJesus taught that we will have memory of our life after death. Jesus told of a certain rich man and a beggar named Lazarus who when they died one went to hell and the other to heaven (a.k.a. Abraham's Side), respectively. In this passage Jesus alludes to the knowledge one has in the afterlife as to memory of the previous. The following is the account, notice specifically verses 25 and 28:\n\nLuke 16:19-31\n19 "There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. 20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores 21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 "The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham's side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In hell, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he called to him, 'Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.' 25 "But Abraham replied, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.' 27 "He answered, 'Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my father's house, 28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.' 29 "Abraham replied, 'They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.' 30 "'No, father Abraham,' he said, 'but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.' 31 "He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.'"\n\nAbraham, in verse 25, told the rich man, "Son, remember that in your lifetime," alluding to the fact that the rich man could remember his former time on earth. Then in verse 28 the rich man responded with concern for his family by saying, "for I have five brothers," exposing his knowledge of his previous time and current affairs of life on earth. If Jesus is to be trusted, then it seems as if Jesus believed that people have memory of their life on earth even after they pass into the next, whether heaven or hell, and so we can conclude that they do.\n\n\n\n>>What i mean is, could u go to heaven and be happy knowing that your family is destined to spend eternity in hell being tortured? or will we simply not know our family from anyone else? what do you guys think?\n\n\nThe Bible speaks of "torment" and not "torture" in hell. Which at first glance may not seem to be a big difference but is significant when you see what each word originally meant. Torment in the greek is the word Basanos and literally means a condition of retribution, toiling in distress. Whereas torture in the greek is Tumpanizo which means to beat (like a drum or tympany) to death and is used to describe the believers of God who were beaten to death for their faith in God (Hebrews 11:35).\n\nTo be in hell is to be in eternal distress (torment), under judgment and wrath from God because of His perfect justice. Basically, receiving what has been duly earned because of our sins (breaking God's commands). If one were to go to heaven while his family went to hell, there would be no sadness, but perhaps pity, for their plight since it will be after God's perfect judgment. They will receive punishment to the degree of their works done while in the body. 2 Corinthians 5:10 says, "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, t

I think when god comes back our heart and souls will know. We will feel it from head to toe.

There is no way to tell until u are there. Heaven is gonna be a new world, with mansions and streets of gold. It's way better than what the mind can think of.

To touch many peoples lives, our life on this earth is like a second compared to the future we have in Heaven which is eternity...so BE GOOD!

Thank goodness, yes we will!  Then, we live again for eternity!  So, don't fear death, as Jesus conquered death.  Go to church, learn about Jesus, and find salvation.

If we knew that we would be here eternally, all people  over the world would be totally different. The idea that we are finite beings, seems to work out well for most of us. I personally would love to know that, through all of my efforts, that I will be in that final number. I want to be infinite and meet with the Lord because I followed his rules and treated my fellow persons with respect. I am a happy person because I am justified in the Lord. God Bless.

A resounding YES! The reason we haven't met them is quite obvious, really. The incidents of life as we know it are so far apart that it would take more time for them to reach us or for us to reach them than any given life form in the universe has. In other words, we will all die and all trace of our existance will be long gone by the time any other beings got here. Take it from an alien!

The moment we die we'll know.
