Will we all speak the same language in Heaven? |
In Heaven will we all speak the same language? Will we all speak
English, Spanish, Russian, Chinese and every other language with an
infinite understanding of each of them? Will we all be the same race
and the same color? If there are different races and different colors
will any of us or any of our ancestors who bore prejudices against any
other race or color get to Heaven. Will God allow both Union soldiers
and Confederate soliers into Heaven? How about KKK members and Black
Panthers? How about Nazis and folks that believe in Judaism? How about
Native Americans and Pilgrims? How about members of the Spanish
Inquisition and anyone that lived in Spain who criticized the Pope.
Will those mounted to The Rack be there along with those who put them
on the Rack? I have a lot of trouble with my faith sometimes because I
have too many questions my preacher can't give me a decisive answer on.
Can anyone here help me out?
If the answer to all of my questions is, "As long as they believe in
Jesus everything will work out okay," is the answer then I have all the
info I expected to get, but I still feel a litttle confused about it
all.

P.S. I reply to email but don't check this addy as often as I would a
non-webmail addy. Spammers send mail to this addy regularly because
their crawlers find it unaltered in these newsgroups. What this means
-- if you want me to reply make sure your subject line is
distinguishable from spam. Something like, "Hey Jan, Someone Wants to
Meet You" won't cut the mustard; neither will, "You can be longer and
thicker too." If you don't know what that means you're lucky. : - )

Had 2 out of body experiences in my life (over 40 now) and met a demon
and Jesus the other time.
Both times the language that was spoken was thought language e.g.
telepathy. Not only do you understand each others thoughts, you know
the feelings behind them and it is hard/impossible to deceive or lie as
you would already know that when that thought came to you what the
thought was.

Okay, I apologize for asking a question that can't be answered. What
inspired my question(s) was seeing a credit card ad on TV tonight which
featured an angel in a funny skit and he was in a land where all the
signs were in Spanish. It got me to thinking.
What if all the signs if Heaven are in Spanish? I won't me able to read
any of them and not just from the brilliant glare from streets of gold
(as if gold is supposed to have some kind of monetary value in Heaven,
and what would Bill Gates care anyway since he can already pave his
properties with streets of gold if he chose to do so), but also because
I don't know Spanish.
So that got me to thinking what will happen to all the Chinese and
Japanese that were converted by Christian missionaries? Will they be
able to read all the signs in Heaven if the signs are written in
English? Or will there be no signs? Or no communication? Will it be the
same way in hell too? Will Hitler be able to understand Mussolini or
Stalin? Will Genghis Khan be able to communicate with Attilla the Hun?
Is it wrong to assume that just because they have pillaged and burned
they will go to hell?
Surely modern leaders that live in nations "under God" won't go to hell
just because they started wars on an assumption of the possible
existence of weapons of mass destruction, right? I guess since no one
has come back with a full report and only the teachings of Jesus during
the last three years of his life come close to explaining our many
unanswered questions I guess we'll just have to believe in Jesus, live
as decent a life as possible, and never kill anyone without the power
of the government supporting your actions so long as they are condoned
by a pope, Billy Graham, Confucious, or any other great religious
leader.
Maybe we should ask Osama? He and his followers claim to have all the
answers so will one of them please tell me, will only Muslims go to
Heaven? If this is true what about Jesus? Jesus wasn't Muslim yet my
Muslim friends tell me they consider Jesus a prophet, so will Jesus be
there? And if Jesus will be there what about Pope Paul, Mother Teresa,
and the Twelve Apostles?
My main point in asking is my failure to understand why men FIGHT and
KILL in the name of the God of their understanding? Throughout history
it hasn't just been Muslims killing Christians, during the Crusades
Christians went hundreds or thousands of miles out of their way to kill
Muslims. It wasn't even for oil because back then oil had no purpose so
far as we know now. So why?
Why is man in general so barbaric? And is hell just a reflection of the
barbaric tendencies of man? We dread it because we dread the worst of
what we see in ourselves and our fellow man. I think it is time for the
Second Coming now before we all destroy ourselves for not being able to
live civilly together on some common ground.
The WTC was a waste. Auschwitz was a waste. Rwanda was a waste.
Hiroshima was a waste. C'mon people, lets not even wait on a Second
Coming. Let's reform now, not because we have to but because we want to
do it. Live and let live. Love your fellow man. No fighting. No
weapons. No hate. Is that too much to ask?

Rascism is the destruction of races, wheras integration is trhe
salvation of races. I beleive there will be a hybrid one language
derived of the most common and plentiful type.

In other words we'll all speak Chinese since there are billions more
Chinese than W.A.S.P.S., eh?

There are no "races". There is only one race.
The human race.

Just humans. No dogs, right? How do we know they don't have a language
of their own that God can understand and they've already asked Jesus to
forgive their sins (biting the mailman, hiding my socks, chewing holes
in the wall, etc.)? I am imagining there won't be a need to eat in
heaven so we wouldn't have to worry about cleaning up after them.
By the way they said it will be harder for a rich man to get through
the eye of a needle, but I think it will be even harder for an
intelligent person who questions what he's been taught and can't get
any legitimate answers. Why are there no legitimate answers?
Okay here's one. If Moses got two of every species on the ark how did
he get two amoebas there since the bible doesn't report the use of
microscopes in the Bible? Were they able to live in the water okay
along with the fish? And how did they clean all the excrement off the
ship every day? Moses' family wouldn't have been enough even if they
worked around the clock (okay, sun dial). Was the ship cleaned and
sanitized every day by divine intervention?
