Baptists/How will we know each other in heaven?

Expert: Rev. Robert Woods - 4/13/2005


Question
How will we know each other in heaven. Will we actually recognize our relatives in heaven? Will our relatives be waiting there for us?  

Answer
Blessings and thank you for your question.

In Heaven, we will know each other, even if we didn't meet on earth.  Somehow we will have a heavenly knowledge that we don't have here.  I don't really believe our relatives are waiting for us.  I think being in the presence of Jesus is so wonderful that nothing else will matter to us.  

Blessings
