Will We Know Each Other in
Heaven?
If we won’t know each other…
Do we still have our identity after this life?
What about our memory?
Matthew 17:1-8[4] Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You wish, I will make three tabernacles here, one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
Romans 14:12
[12] So then each one of us will give an account
of himself to God.
Luke 16:19-31
[23] “In Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and *saw Abraham far away and Lazarus in his bosom.
Luke 16:19-31
[25] “But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that during your life you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus bad things; but now he is being comforted here, and you are in agony.
Why Do We Wonder?
1) What about us becoming spiritual?
1 Corinthians 15:50-51[50] Now I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does the
perishable inherit the imperishable. [51] Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be
changed,
1 Corinthians 15:44
[44] it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.
But: This does not teach an identity shift!
2) What about there being no marriage?
Matthew 22:30
[30] “For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are
given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
But: The relation of marriage is ended, but not the memory of it.
3) What about knowing those who won’t get
to heaven?
But: We know God can comfort us.
What We Find: Descriptions
of Heaven
Genesis 25:8
[8] Abraham breathed his last and died in a ripe old age, an old man and satisfied with life; and he was gathered to his people.
2 Samuel 12:23
[23] “But now he has died; why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
John 14:3
[3] “If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.
Luke 13:24-30
[29] “And they will come from east and west and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.
Heaven is a place of reunion
and being together!
“Faith is the Christian’s foundation,
hope is his anchor, death is his harbor, Christ is his
pilot, and heaven is his country.”
