Last week my 3rd Graders and I were learning about Jesus' resurrection, and the hope of eternal life that he gave to all mankind (John 3:16). This lead to a discussion about heaven. Since the questions were numerous, I asked my students to record them for me; I said that I would attempt to search the Bible for their answers. Please pray that I will answer their questions correctly... or simply say, I don't know!
Here are their questions about heaven and death...
How big is heaven?
When you go to heaven do you build your house?
Can you get married in heaven and have a kid?
Do you wear clothes in heaven?
Can you choose your skin color in heaven?
Will you lose your skin color?
If you die when you're a baby will God let you go to heaven?
When you go to heaven will you know your family?
Will you have new moms, dad, brothers or sisters?
Will you have wings and fly?
When you go to heaven do you see other people who went to heaven?
Is there everything on Earth that is in heaven?
Do you rise again?
Where does your soul go?
When you die do you go directly to heaven?
Are there birthdays in heaven or anything that includes parties?
