Can evil exist in heaven?
No?
Well then how can we love God in heaven, if we can’t chose to sin?
Isn’t that basically us being forced?
If we aren’t presented with the oppurtunity to sin, then do we have free will?
If we don’t have free will, how can we chose to love God?
Can you sin without a demon influencing you?
Would Adam and Eve have sinned if the serpent hadn’t influenced them?
So can you do something wrong if you aren’t influenced to do it?
Is it wrong if you don’t know it is?
Just some thoughts from Small group last night. I don’t know if you’ll be able to answer them. I can only guess at some of the answers.

sEE THAT IS ONE OF THE HARDEST THINGS TO C… WELL I HAVE THOUGHT BOUT IT ALOT AND ONE THING IS… in heaven i dont even think that we would think about thata. C here it is doubt and such that even puts that thought into our heads. But we were created to worship God… and in heaven that will b exactally wht we will b doing.. we already made our choice.. the choice of a lifetime.. and after we die there is no going back on that choice.. death is thee greates adventure.. well besides actually living here on earth.. does this kinda make sence?? hmm well .. yah

wow, I chose a bad week to miss!
haha
ummm… personally, I don’t think that God forces us to worshiip him in heaven, but I still don’t think it is possible to sin, because… I just… don’t think you could sin! I mean, you are standing before the one who is mightier than anyone else,…. ever! I think that the only thoughts on our minds will be about praising God.
I think you can sin without a demon influencing you… demons don’t have to influence you. However, it depends. if you are talking about “would Adam and Eve had sinned if the devil did not influencec them” or whatever.. no I don’t think they could, I don’t think Sin was in their vocabulary. haha.. ok it was, but they had NO desire to do it. However I think WE can sin without a demon influencing you because we have been introduced to sin many many many times in the past, we know EXACTLY what it is, and how to do it, why? becouse we have all pesonally done it in one way or another.
and that kinda go’s back to the first question. In heaven, there WON’T be a devil to tempt us, it will be like… Adam and Eve, only with a bunch of people, and the way it SHOULD have turned out…. and hopefully some clothes. hahahahha
I don’t think sin is wrong if you don’t know it is. I remember saying a bad word when I was younger, and I got in al ot of trouble… but I didn’t know why, because I dind’t know it was a bad word. lol. dictionary.com defines sin as:
any act regarded as such a transgression, esp. a willful or deliberate violation of some religious or moral principle\
deliberate. That word should stick. Those who are sinning, most likekley KNOW they are sinning, and they are doing it deliberately. I did not say a bad word on purpous (i was five haha) I heard it on a cartoon (sad story) and decided to say it.
I don’t know if ANY of that made any sence, but It makes sence to me! hahha… yea lol.
