(The Christian Post) Randy Alcorn has objected to the claim of some that when people go to Heaven, they will forget everything about their previous life on earth.
The author of the bestselling 2004 book Heaven penned a column for Desiring God detailing misconceptions about the afterlife.
In particular, Alcorn took issue with the claim that people who go to Heaven will not remember anything about their former life on earth, labeling it a “Hindu, not Christian” idea.
“You will be you in heaven. Who else would you be? Since we’ll give an account of our lives on earth, we must remain us, and our memories will have to be better, not worse,” wrote Alcorn.
