It’s common to hear people say, “We don’t understand now, but in Heaven we’ll know everything.” One writer says that people in Heaven can “easily comprehend divine mysteries. Is this true? Will we really know everything in Heaven?

From The Ishbane Conspiracy by Randy Alcorn, Angela (Alcorn) Stump and Karina (Alcorn) Franklin  Dear Foulgrin,I’m pleased our favorite holiday’s coming up in a few weeks. Halloween! It’s official, Foulgrin—these vermin now spend more money on this holiday than any other except Christmas.
