How old will I be in heaven?

[tonychanyt]

My guess is thirty-something, as Jesus died and was resurrected at 33.

Philippians 3:

20 But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.

1 John 3:

2 Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.

But heaven is a timeless eternity. The age 33 is symbolic. Rather than focusing on a specific age, it's more accurate to say we'll be in an ideal, perfected state - neither too young nor too old. We will be meek (Mt 5:5) and innocent like children (Mt 18:3).

A great, very original question !

I like your guess as well ... but I will admit it indeed sounds like a guess ... Maybe our new body would somehow resemble our ideal state as a human being health-, looks- and heart-wise ?

I think that's a good age also! I was a stud back then at least in my mind.

Our glorified bodies, I think, will not be represented by any age. We will be changed.
