Will We Lose Our Personalities in Heaven?

Will We Lose Our Personalities in Heaven?

Will We Lose Our Personalities in Heaven? from Randy Alcorn - EPM on Vimeo.

Many ask if we will lose the particular personalities, interests and passions God has given us in this life. Randy Alcorn responds with a question: why would we? Yes, in Heaven anything sinful will be removed. But if God made our personalities, then individuality is good. In Heaven He makes us who we are, just better. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

We shouldn't think that in Heaven we will lose our individuality and be absorbed into some mystical "All" as Buddhism believes. To make this point, Randy Alcorn quotes Bruce Milne who asserts that the individual selves that were worth God saving through Christ will continue in the life to come.
