Maybe being a spiritual state of being the ideas of placement and location won't be a consideration.

Or maybe we will simply "know" of one's presence and be able to find them, like having an internal "awareness" of sorts.

I'm sure greater minds might have far deeper ideas.

Aquila?

Hey, eternity gives more than enough time to get around to see everybody.

I think the issue here is finding your loved one. And what if you're loved one didn't make it? You'll have no recollection of that loved one. How then will you know to look for a loved one?

If you have no recollection of a person you wont be looking for them.

I dont believe angels have to "go looking" for people. We shall be like them. Therefore we wont have a problem finding any particular person, either.

That's exactly my point. Hypothetically, let us state you had a loved one that you thought was saved, but for some reason didn't make it into heaven. You wouldn't know that he/she made it, correct?

A better question is how would we know who made? Would god download that information into our memory? That's highly unlikely. Who would I search for and who made me aware of whom I should seek within a multitude of people? I don't know whether angels are all knowing. From my understanding, only God is omniscient.

Why wouldnt you know whether or not they made it? Is Judgment Day a closed chamber session?

Rev 21:4
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.


If you entered heaven and discovered the family member(s) you thought were saved ended up being lost for eternity, wouldn't that thought bring you tears and sorrow?

According to scripture, there will be no sorrow, tears, or pain in heaven. I can only assume that you'll be unaware of who was lost for eternity, otherwise you would experience crying, sorrow, and pain in heaven, which scriptures state will no longer exist in heaven.

The only other method of not feeling pain and sorrow in heaven is becoming numb to the fact that your family members didn't make it. Don't we desire that our loved ones be saved while they're alive on Earth? Why would our mentality change to, "ahh they deserved what they got" after we enter heaven, after discovering they're lost for eternity?

Plenty of people experience sadness, pain, grief, loss, etc, and eventually stop weeping and grieving, without them either forgetting or becoming "numb".

It is entirely conceivable that the saints will accept the righteous judgments of God, which is to be expected in fact since converted persons have and continue to lay down their wills and desires to prefer the will of God be done, as they believe His decisions are the best.

Wiping away tears doesnt mean wiping away memories.
