Author Post « Previous Thread | Next Thread » HEMISPHERICALHEADS Ceremonial Kernel Registration Date: 06-07-2003 Posts: 2,324 Location: Motor City Something that bothers me?        On a more serious note.. I've often heard , and also read in scripture that once we are in Heaven we will have no need for our spouse's. That sort of bums me out if it is true..She is my soul mate and I really could not imagine living without her for the rest of eternity. I'm not talking about worshipping her. Any other insight on this? 07-03-2003 15:35 Mark Moderator Registration Date: 03-18-2002 Posts: 9,525 Location: Grand Encephalon - Words have their place but live what you say God can have His way when you hit them with Love I asked a similar question on another thread about spouses in heaven. __________________ But never, never pin your whole faith on any human being: not if he is the best and wisest in the whole world. - C.S.

The first one married and died, and since he had no children, he left his wife to his brother. 26The same thing happened to the second and third brother, right on down to the seventh. 27Finally, the woman died. 28Now then, at the resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven, since all of them were married to her?" 29Jesus replied, "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God. 30At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 31But about the resurrection of the dead--have you not read what God said to you, 32'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'[1] ? He is not the God of the dead but of the living." 33When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at his teaching. That's what Jesus had to say about it. So make of it what you will... __________________ Seek Justice 07-03-2003 16:45 Squidzit Platyhelminth Registration Date: 05-14-2003 Posts: 6,235 Location: Be the change you wish to see in the world It's not always what WE want to hear. __________________ "Why a four year old child could understand this... run out and get me a four year old child, I can't make heads or tails of it." ~Groucho~ 07-03-2003 16:48 dennis Ubique Epoque Registration Date: 09-19-2002 Posts: 13,303 Location: In not-quite earth, in not-quite heaven.

Yes I like that..Well it's not really that I like it , but I can relate to it. But , my humaness does not want to accept it. It is very difficult to digest.

I would gather that I would know her in heaven for eternity, it's just that the relationship would be much different? 07-03-2003 23:17 Ron E Platyhelminth Registration Date: 03-12-2002 Posts: 5,610 Location: Central Ontario Canada Does it do things any good to think that whatever the goodness you have found in your wife will be dwarfed in heaven by whatever the replacement is? The relationship now is just a poor shadow of the relationships in heaven? Wow, We say, "Come, Lord."

Think of how good He is to us here, and that, in spite of the sinful world we live in, we notice and rejoice in it. Heaven's gonna be, well, out of this world. Which is what's going to make it so wonderful. __________________ The opinion expressed is that of the participant and does not necessarily reflect that of Mr Dan Amos.

That is very hard to take if you really think about it. We cannot fathom the replacement. That's why everyone "can't wait" to see their spouses and relatives in heaven. We love them to the depths of our souls in the best love we humans can comprehend, and to not have it the same in heaven just doesn't seem right. That's why so few realize or ignore the verse. __________________ But never, never pin your whole faith on any human being: not if he is the best and wisest in the whole world. - C.S.
