When we get to heaven, will we remember our lives here on Earth, such as relationships with our siblings, husband, wife, etc.?

Sincerely,
Kodak Moments

Dear Kodak Moments,

Yes.  Even those in torments remember their lives and families after death.  The story of Lazarus and the rich man shows that the rich man awoke in torments and remembered his brothers (Lk 16:27-28).  We have every reason to believe that after we die, we will still remember who we are, the relationships we have built, and the lives that we have touched on this planet.

Jesus, in His resurrected/glorified body, ate food (Lk 24:41-43).  This seems odd that He would hunger.  Will our bodies, after the resurrection, need nourishment?

Sincerely,
Where’s The Beef?

Dear Where’s The Beef,

Jesus’ resurrected body was a normal human body.  He even told the disciples that His body was the same flesh that went into the grave; He told them He was not a spirit or an angel (Lk 24:36-40).  Jesus arose from the grave with a physical human body and proved it through multiple appearances over the course of forty days (Acts 1:3).  The body Jesus appeared in after His resurrection was still made of flesh and bones and even bore the nail marks from His crucifixion (Jhn 20:24-27)… that is why He needed to eat.

Is seeing a person's aura of the devil?  The reason I am asking is because there was a young boy at our church who told us in his testimony that God had given him the gift of seeing a person's aura.  Thank you.

Sincerely,
Wigged Out

Dear Wigged Out,

That young boy has either been coerced into delusion, or he was purposefully lying.  The Lord teaches that the devil uses lying wonders and false signs (2 Thess 2:9).  For centuries, false teachers have professed that they could perform miracles… and they have always been wrong.  The miracles that were performed by the apostles in the first century were verifiable, visible, and obvious.  The ability to see someone’s “aura” is invisible, unverifiable, and mysterious.  This young man isn’t telling the truth.
