Will infants who die continue to be infants on the New Earth, or will they grow up? Will everyone appear to be the same age at the resurrection?

Whether or not Heaven operates outside the scope of earth’s time sequence, clearly the inhabitants of Heaven track with events happening in time (Rev. 2-3).

Clearly, since the Holy Spirit is a member of the triune God, He will be present for all eternity, no doubt taking an active role in the creation and among God’s people. However, the Bible doesn’t specifically answer the question of exactly what His role will be.

In Heaven there will be one marriage, not many. That marriage will be what earthly marriage symbolized and pointed to, the marriage of Christ to his bride. So we will all be married—but to Christ.

The current Heaven is in the angelic realm, distinctly separate from earth (though likely having more earthly qualities than we often assume). But the future Heaven will be in the human realm, on earth.

Ultimately, it all comes down to this: Any attack on hell is ultimately an attack on the God who created it, and the Scriptures that describe it.

“Let temporal things serve your use, but the eternal be the object of your desire.” Thomas a Kempis

Part of the issue is why should we be working on something now? Because this life is a limited opportunity to make choices to follow Christ in a world that is opposed to Him.

The reason I don’t address activities about the intermediate state is because there are not a lot of details given to it.

While there may be others we don't know of who God has created or will create in the future, we know the following will be in heaven...
