Do you have a mirror polisher for me?1 Corinthians 13:12
12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known.

If Jesus has prepared a place for you, you won't need a material polisher, you'll simply close your eyes, and in the next twink, you'll be on the other side of that mirror and experiencing everything you couldn't before.Do you have a mirror polisher for me?
I don't imagine myself asking Him anything. Why would I need to? Only to bask in His love, to be in His presence, that will be enough.Recently, God thought I should watch a movie titled, “Have a Little Faith,“ and I am glad He did.
The story follows the faith journeys of a number of people, with excellent lessons along the way for them and us.
An intriguing question was posed at one point: after you die, if you had 5 minutes with God, what would you ask Him?
Well, I am still unsure with what that would be. Only 5 minutes?
Unsettled Biblical or theological questions?
Unsolved history or science questions?
Questions about the future?
Anyone have a ready, burning question or two?
Blessings.
Exactly!Surely we can ask God anything we want now - I have asked him loads of questions over the years, isn’t our prayer life a conversation with God, why would I wait until I had died !

If You Could Have a 5 min. Conversation with God . . .
Why would the devil do these things to us? What exactly is his motive?
What you said is reasonable, but I have my own opinion. Here is my biblical basis.The devil wants you dead because He envies the fact that we have a relationship with God, and he lost this.
He is "cast out" and we are "the family of God".
So, the verse says...>"who can stand before ENVY".......in other words.. envy is a type of inner jealously that borders on hatred.
Consider this verse.
Lucifer said......"i'll exalt MY THRONE above the Throne of God".
So, we see that Lucifer had a throne, had tremendous power, authority......position, but wanted MORE, because of his greedy pride, and he lost everything, and was cast out of Heaven.
So, he ended up on earth, and watched God create : "man in our image"... (God like), with power, authority, dominion, and Satan had none....
=Envy, Jealously, hatred...
So, He hates Mankind, because God gave to us what He wanted most of all....."equality with God"... yet he wanted even MORE.
And He hates Jesus, because He knows who He was before Jesus was born, and He knows that Jesus is God's offer of "come back to the Family" for everyone........and So, the Devil hates this.........because of envy.
All I would say is "At Last I'm home" and cry a lot.
I am already very thankful TO GOD , HIS CHRISTI don't believe I would ask him anything either. I would just be thankful I made it.![]()
satan has only one motive . TO STEAL to KILL and DESTROY .What you said is reasonable, but I have my own opinion. Here is my biblical basis.
The Gospel of Mark 16:15
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
I think if the words here are not misinterpreted,
Satan may has the same relationship with God as we do,if satan is not a fool,satan could understand it.So Satan is jealous of our relationship with God that not to know where to begin telling.
If Satan wants to be as God, I don't know where to begin telling too. Did God only make man in the image of God ? Mark 16:15 But the scripture here says preach the gospel to every creature.
I don't think Satan wants to be more than God.
So I can't figure out what Satan's motive is.
This world is not HOME . forever with THE KING CHRIST JESUS WHO SAVED US , THAT BE HOME . sing to the LORDAll I would say is "At Last I'm home" and cry a lot.
Just my own ideas, but I'm thinking that when God created the angels, and seraphim, and cherubim, the one who was the highest was enjoyed his exalted state. But when God created the "mud people", the one who was the highest of the angelic realm realized that this was all about them, these ridiculous and soft creatures made from dirt, that they would be elevated to be with, and be like God. Instead of himself. And envy took over. Not them, me! I! I will be like God! I will be, not them!!What you said is reasonable, but I have my own opinion. Here is my biblical basis.
The Gospel of Mark 16:15
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Yes!Anyone have a ready, burning question or two?
You would not be able to ask those questions, because you won't be in Heaven. You have to know Christ is this life to ask a question. Believe me, in Hell, those questions won't matter. Yes, Christ is the only way. John 14:6Yes!
1. Are all the religions (Buddhism, hinduism, Tao, Sikhism, Zoroastrian, muslim etc...) all ways to heaven or what? or is Christianity the Only Way?
2. if some people end up in hell, can't You just set make Yourself known and set them free?
if I am in heaven that means I must know Christ. I agree Christ is the Way. but I was going to ask God if there was any other religion that had a Christ that had a different name.You would not be able to ask those questions, because you won't be in Heaven. You have to know Christ is this life to ask a question. Believe me, in Hell, those questions won't matter. Yes, Christ is the only way. John 14:6
