Frequently Asked Questions:
I was just wondering if a baby stays a baby when God takes it to Heaven?
Or does it automatically become of a certain age? Or does it grow up in Heaven
to a certain age. I miscarried about 22 years ago at about 12 weeks. My niece
just miscarriage at 7 months. When we get to Heaven will our babies be babies
or adults?
The Bible does not give complete details of how we will look or be in heaven, but it does give a few ideas. Age will not matter: there is not the same sense
of time we have here as in eternity. The saved of God are given a new body fit
for life in eternity (I Cor 15), and there we are "known as we are known".
1Cr 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
When a Christian 'walks' in the Holy Spirit, we are given understanding and can 'see' what we cannot 'see' at other times-- clarity in an idea, the needs of another etc, and although it is not a literal seeing , more often than not, it is with understanding and assurity. We will know each other in Heaven. A well known radio pastor, Chuck Smith, in response to a similar question once noted that we will 'not be more stupid in Heaven than we are here". ---we will know one another but not bare the same relationship to one another: one may discern this by the answers Jesus gave regarding marriage and re-marriage in which he noted that in heaven none are given in 'marriage': it is a real place, Heaven, but it is not of the same nature as earth, nor will our bodies be.
You will have full joy in reunion with the children you have lost: you will rejoice when you see them, and will live with them in the presence of a Loving Lord and Savior if you are dwelling in Him, and He in you. Heaven is for the saved of God, those who come His Way, through the atoning work of the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, the Way, the Truth and the LIfe. When we have received Him and walk in Him, Heaven is assured for us, and we will have that joy of reunion with those who have gone on before.
We often draw pictures of Jesus holding a baby to give an idea of the Love of the
Savior for the little ones, and the site explains on the page God and Your Baby ,
that they go fully to Heaven with the greatest assurance we can have from Scriptures.
God is more merciful than we are: our journeys can be from a a few minutes or
less to up to 100 or more years, but each life counts and is precious to God,
and each is used in the plan of His reign and Kingdom. Your baby is held
in His love and care. You will see them again.
