Reunited In The Afterlife

[Canary42]

Does a re-married widow end up as a heavenly bigamist ?

[nailedit]

Unless you have to go and ask your pastor/vicar/priest/elder/etc first??

[Old_Geezer]

The phrase is, "to death us do part", so a widow isn't married and can't become a biggermiss.

 

Besides her past husband, fed up with perpetually playing his harp and singing God's praises may have opted to be reincarnated by the time she goes.

So what happens if you go up to  'heaven' and both your husbands are there?

My great-grandmother was buried with my great-grandfather and her 2nd husband!

Three of them in the same grave!

Thank you for an entertaining thread. While my OP was perhaps a trifle flippant, it is something which as a very young lad in the Forties gave me serious concerns (I was still gullible enough at a tender age to believe all the religious propaganda so prevalent in those far off days) when my Mum, widowed by WW2, remarried.  "What will happen in heaven" was a real worry to me then.

Some wouldn't consider it paradise if their spouse was there

There's only one way to solve this...

[Barsel]

Doug, did you see my post at @23.57?

I wondered if there had been fisticuffs in the grave.

[sandyRoe]

If a murderer killed another killer and they both ended up in hell would both need to watch their back as they went about their daily business or would there be more to worry them?

[Barsel]

sandy, wouldn't they have already burned in hell?

[Old_Geezer]

Possibly both, until they decide to leave any hell they'd created for themselves.

[sandyRoe]

Barsel,

True they'd be burning in eternal hell fire, but that wouldn't stop one of them lifting a charred femur and battering his enemy from their previous earthly existence.

 LOCUST- I have read all your comments and I am completely confused in your answers because the Bible does not recognize how as a place of torment or destruction. to put my answer to you I will ask one question in the   the  bistsh & foreign bible society  King James old  Version ACT 3.27 , Jesus so-called after his death went to Hell. now is this place the hell you are talking about fire and torment or the common  grave because Jesus was a perfect man and he died for three days in the common  grave and it took his father to god almighty to resurrect him from this common grave ????   After Consulting many other bibles this verse in Acts 3 27   has been deleted ,new modern Bible has not got this verse in it.The dead are unconscious and so cannot feel pain. “Neither work, nor reason, nor wisdom, nor knowledge, shall be in hell.” (Ecclesiastes 9:10, Douay-Rheims Version) Hell s not filled with sounds of pain. Instead, the Bible says: “Let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave [hell, Douay-Rheims].”—Psalm 31:17; King James Version (30:18, Douay-Rheims); Psalm 115:17.
