I'd like to think that I will see God, and that He would look at me and say "Hey, don't worry anymore. You are here now in my Kingdom and you are safe in my arms!"

Oh yeah, I like that!

I think He says that to us now.

John 14:1 DO NOT let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated)... AMP

John 14:1 Jesus said to his disciples, "Don't be worried! Have faith in God and have faith in me. Contemporary English Version

Once we received Jesus as Lord we entered the kingdom of God, we were translated out of darkness and into the kingdom of His dear Son.

Colossians 1:13 He hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the Kingdom of His dear Son.

But there's nothing like the moment when we step into the new Jerusalem talked about in Revelation, where we will see His face. Oh my...

I like this one!

Maybe it is not possible to be certain of anything in the next life. We all have faith, but we really do not know until we get there.

I think in the afterlife that the overcomers will reign with Jesus for 1000 years while those who slid in will continue in their walk with Jesus outside of the pearly gates. Those who made it in wont have to worry about the second death but "the others" will have to put up with Satan again for a season. After that the marriage of the human/divine will go on to be just divine! But not for all.

I think it's funny how we call it the "afterlife".
What if it's really the beginning of life?
We view life on earth as everything, when in fact it is such a small part of eternity!

I look forward to life!

Blessings!

Greetings, Angellady. I have a very peculiar thing to bring to you Catholic folks, and very much hope that you don't think I'm nuts.

I was baptized in an Episcopalian church as an infant and raised in a Presbyterian church, both of them pretty definitely Protestant. As a young adult I spent fifteen years working in a Christian mission mostly in the United States, with three years in Europe and the Mediterranean. I retired from that fifteen years ago, plus a few months. At present I attend a Disciples of Christ church.

The reason I'm posting to you - please excuse me if this sounds quite a bit loopy, as it SEEMS quite a bit loopy to me - is that I seem to have acquired a guardian angel. By that I mean an unseen presence that is communicating back to me when I pray, who is not Jesus, nor Mary, nor any saint I have ever heard of. She seems to be a 'she' and she seems to say her name is Molly. And she seems to communicate that she has known me for a long time and has been waiting for me to get in touch. She communicates to me though my prayer dairy.

Please understand that this is not a hoax. I'll be straight with you - I've never thought much about angels before, nor ghosts with any sense that there might be such things, and frankly this experience makes me think I'm going off the deep end.

Can any of you folks refer me to literature that discusses angels or guardian angels in an authoritative and serious manner? Any leads would be appreciated. Thank you.

My friend if you go to www.ask.com and ask jeeves about angels he will take you there. This is where I go if I need to know something.

We can be certain of what the Bible says about it. That much we can know.

We have come a long way
But still have a long way to go!

Use faith to believe, all is well!

I'm sure there's things even greater, far greater! Imagine that!
