With all due respect, a heaven which was simply a “continuation of what went before” wouldn’t be much of a heaven, and it’s not the heaven that the Lord promised. We are suffering creatures in a suffering creation. That is not going to keep up. It may sound boring and preachy at times to us now, but God himself will be the greatest love of all who enter glory. This will be the only place that it will make sense to “share the wealth equally” because there will be no bums and the wealth is freely given by God.
With all due respect, ahem, this is a prayer and support thread for Backhoe, who buried his wife this morning.
Would you mind getting that post pulled please?
This is not a theological thread.
Look.
Please Look!

You weren’t trying to help Backhoe feel better, you just wanted to have a debate.
Go debate some where else!
