Can Loved Ones in Heaven Look Down on You?
The question of whether loved ones in heaven can look down on us is a deeply comforting and sometimes controversial topic. Many people, like the author of this article, find solace in the idea that their loved ones are still with them in spirit, offering support and encouragement from the heavenly realm. The Bible offers some intriguing insights, with passages like Hebrews 12:1 describing a “great cloud of witnesses” surrounding us, which some interpret as those who have gone before us, cheering us on in our spiritual journey.

However, the article also points out that there are differing opinions on this topic within Christian circles. While personal experiences and stories like those shared by the author suggest the possibility of loved ones watching over us, the Bible doesn’t provide a definitive answer. Instead, it emphasizes God’s omnipresence and the comfort He provides, ensuring we are never truly alone. What do you think? Can our loved ones in heaven look down on us?

Tobit, acropyoha.

A relative came from heaven to help Tobit. He lost his sight and had problems. Yes, I believe God under circumstances would allow it.

I really liked the story of Tobit.

Me and my dad were talking about a similar topic the other day. We both realized that heaven may not be an actual place (like, you can’t reach it by going up) but a whole different dimension. Our basis for that was the story of Elisha and the Assyrians. There may be angels standing right outside of our rooms, windows, doors, etc. protecting us from demons. Freaky, right? :fearful:
