100% agree. Anything I get too stuck on, I put into that category.
Especially a lot of stories from Genesis. I would like to know the “rest of the story” like Paul Harvey used to say.
If we are in heaven will we care who shot JFK, what Hillary did election night 2016, or was the 2020 election stolen?
I can’t locate the source but I clearly remember reading in a narrative about attacks on Jews that a Jewish woman said in response to someone asking how God lets these things happen to innocent people:
“On Earth there are no answers. In Heaven there are no questions.”
Some of us will.................😉
Tempted and tried, we’re oft made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long;
While there are others living about us,
Never molested, though in the wrong.
Refrain:
Farther along we’ll know more about it,
Farther along we’ll understand why;
Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,
We’ll understand it all by and by.
Excellent post! The gap is to be filled with faith.
I have long believed that we are put on this earth to accomplish something. What that something is is not our privilege to know in this life. When we have accomplished whatever we were sent here to do, that’s when we will be called home.
I do my best and the rest I leave up to my maker.
If I get to heaven, I will be too happy to be worried about the answers.
Most people will be fortunate to HAVE some questions.
Seekers - Keep A Dream In Your Pocket Extended Fan Version
Keep a dream in your pocket and a song in your heart
Keep the lamp of your learnin' burnin' bright
Keep your eye on your horizon and a smile on your face
As you travel down the highway of your life
Don't listen to those voices that say it can't be done
They build walls where there was never one before
No, there's nothing that can stop you, nothing that can drag you down
If you keep lookin' for that ever-open door
So if you follow your dream to the end of the road
Taking care not to let it fade away (not fade away)
If you follow your dream and you follow it well
It will lead you to the promise of a bright, shiny day.
Great way to put it.
That is correct. Point is, make sure one makes it to heaven. I don’t believe there will be answers in hell.
When we get to heaven, we’ll realize our questions are too stupid to ask.
As I have been discussing the Bible with a muslim fellow, one of his stumbling blocks is, how can there be a triune God? As he puts it, ‘How can God have a partner?’ I explained that there are things in the Bible that I ‘comprehend’ and there are things that I must ‘apprehend’. I cannot understand how there can be One God in Three Persons, but I ‘apprehend’ that it is true.
Will we know ‘everything’ when we get to heaven? Not necessarily but we won’t care, being in God’s Presence for Eternity.
There are questions we now have, especially about the corrupt, that I don’t think we will have in Heaven, because the answers we want for those types of questions are usually related to our desire to see the corrupt “get theirs” -— not a typically Heavenly emotion. We will see the corrupt dealt with at The Judgment, but I don’t think we will be rejoicing at that, either, since, like Jesus, we won’t want even one to perish, though it be inevitable. We will all rejoice to see the devil and his demons be plunged into the lake of fire, though, as the source of all evil.
I also don’t think all the petty things we now worry about, will even come to our minds, in Heaven. The questions I think I might have, about the universe, the interpretation of certain Biblical texts, and other great unknowns, may or may not come to mind, then. Otoh, we will be taught, there. I wonder about what?
Will we? We think so but Job actually got to question God directly. His answer? Who are you to question Me! I’m here may be some answers we. ever get but need to take on trust.
