The Devil is in the Void
Will we be able to recognize family members when we enter the unseen? That is an easy one. Of course, we will we each see each other the exact way we saw each other in another, other than the present tense we want, time.
This one is harder. What if we would want to see someone in heaven who is not. Now if we wanted to see one's faithful dog in heaven, that is easy enough, but if they had not accepted God, what then?
A heaven without one's loving faithful forgiving dog is not much of an heaven it would seem to me. I listened as an eleven year old boy was told from the pulpit that he could not. Why? Because a dog has no soul.
I was incensed! I should not, but I was. That preacher did not have as much love as any dog I would say. Twain said it more cleverly, how there was more

But what about a loving mother for her unbelieving son? Now I am getting too close to the nitty and the gritty. We are all going to be born, I believe, after this embryonic life born tabla rosa, to what we believe, what then?
My view is to accept the fact I do not know the answer for everything. I may later on, but at any rate, not now, and likely not even then.. I am happy with everything God comes up with because He knows the eventual entire circumstance, since He spoke it that way.
And since He always starts in love I expect everything to turn out there, after all His words will not return to Him void.
