How does god solve this problem?

[Russ Campbell]

Matthew 6:19-26
WHAT TO SEEK AND WHOM TO SERVE
What is in our inner life which answers to the eye of the body? Some have said that it is the intellect; others the heart. But it is truer to say that it is the inner purpose and intention of the soul.
When our physical eye is in an unhealthy condition, the image is doubled and blurred. To use a common expression, it has a squint, such as affected the noble face of Edward Irving, the noted English clergyman. We are told that as a babe he was laid in a wooden cradle, in the side of which was a small hole through which he watched what was going on. This distorted his vision through life. So we may look two ways at once.
The endeavor to serve God and mammon, to stand well with both worlds, to lay up treasures on earth and at the same time be rich toward God, is a spiritual squint. John Bunyan tells of Mr. Facing-Both-Ways, who kept one eye on heaven and the other on earth; who sincerely professed one thing and sincerely did another. He tried to cheat God and Devil, but in the end cheated only himself and his neighbors.

Daniel 10:1-21
THE VISION BY THE RIVER
This chapter gives a glimpse into the great conflict which is always in progress between heaven and hell. For three weeks the radiant Being who came to Daniel as he prayed and fasted by the great river, was withstood by the mighty fallen spirit, who was concerned with the destinies of the kingdom of Persia; and it was only when he was succored and reinforced that he was able to accomplish the divine errand, Dan_10:13. What a revelation is here-that probably each heathen country is ruled by some wicked spirit in the high places; that the fight is at times almost overpowering even for bright unfallen angels; and that the blessings which are ours are sometimes delayed because of the storms that sweep the ocean through which they come. Perhaps by our prayer we are able to throw an ounce-weight into the scale, and turn the battle. How reassuring the touch of that hand and tender the address of that voice. Who cannot be strong when strengthened by the right hand of God? Go forth into the fight of another day! God holds thy right hand. Be true and strong; thou canst not fail!

A great many claiming the title missed the memo about change. They prefer to justify their old actions and continue them by saying it's ok now because they are new.

Too true. They do not know what they are missing out on.

I was just thinking, when most people are on this planet they turn a little mean because things aren`t quite as they should, but in heaven when they enter, how can you be 100 % sure they won`t kick you in the face or something when sleeping becuse of this, how does god solve this problem really? I know heaven is supposed to be good so they`ll behave better, but let`s say one of them have a bad day … exactly my point, you can`t really trust people 100 % even in heaven

Here on this planet think of us as a symbiote and a host. The symbiote is a soul and the host is a semi independent body and spirit.(it has it's own will and needs) When the soul repents the symbiote goes to heaven. while the spirit and the body die. Those parts that die a slaves to sin it is the part that wants to hurt people and kick them in the face. When we get resurrected the body spirit and soul are one meaning that part that wants to do God has full power in doing good. the parts that where slave to evil die and are not apart of the new body.
