What is Heaven going to be like for those of us who believe? I, and I know others, often wonder about this? Will we recognize our loved ones who went before us? For those of you that are the Bible Scholars, what does it say? I haven't found too much in there to give me a good idea which makes me think it will be so glorious that it is beyond description and comprehension in our brains.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

The Bible seems to be more implicit than explicit on this.
"I tell you, many will come from east and west and recline at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven" Matthew 8:11
This is the Father and his two sons being together so they recognize each other.

I'll answer your question with a question. Would it be heaven if we could not recognize those loved ones who have gone on before us?

I'll answer your question with a question. Would it be heaven if we could not recognize those loved ones who have gone on before us? I believe we do. I have to believe this like many others so I can cope with losing loved ones. I believe the next time I see my daddy he’ll look like he did when he was in his prime. Full of life and happiness. I know this.

I hope heaven is a dirt road that goes on for eternity. Otherwise, I'm gonna get real freaking irritated having to talk to all the Democrats up there.

I believe that: we will not remember our life on earth
not sure about remembering or recognizing loved ones
we are all children of God, will we all be children? Just a slight correction. We are all his creation but only those who make Jesus Lord are His children. "But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God". John 1:12

I have a lot of people that I love that I wouldn't want to spend eternity with... I honestly don't believe that any theories we as humans, living in the temporary created reality, come up with are going to be anywhere close to what Heaven is going to be like. I also believe that the way Heaven, as described in the Bible, is the best explanation that the people of the day, writing the Bible, could come up with. Same thing with the creation story. (Y'all can go ahead and draw and quarter me now, because Irishguy is not a literalist when it comes to the good ol' King James Version...)

1 Corinthians 2:9-10
Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him. But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit.
Romans 8:1-2 "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, for the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of Sin and Death"

Our human brains cant comprehend the greatness of heaven
. We will be filled with such awe and wonder at seeing God and Jesus and worshipping them, that trying to find loved ones will not be a part of the equation. Would I like to see past loved ones, you bet. Would I like for every day to be turkey hunting, fishing, beach going, eating whatever I want without gaining weight or causing cholesterol to go up, sure, but heaven will be about spending eternity with Yahweh. It isn't about seeing those that have gone before us.

Yes, we will recognize each other. Have you ever thought about our relationships in heaven. Would your son be your son? Would your dad be your dad. I dont think so. I believe we will remember them but our relationship will not be the same. Maybe what we will remember is the love we have for them.

Paul spoke 5 languages and after God showed him part of heaven he said he couldn't describe it with words. That tells me those that claim they've experienced heaven and describe it so easily are either lying or were hallucinating.
Come that time we'll all have perfect love for one another and while we may recognize family and friends we won't be concerned with our familial relationships any more. No more sickness or worry and no need to take care of each other. Just peace and harmony with all our brothers and sisters in Christ.
