       And, not only will we be with God, but we will be with fellow human beings, many of whom we have cultivated and developed relationships with in this life. We will have relationships abounding. Many of our relationships will be with those people we knew on the earth, who were saved, and even people we helped lead into relationship with Christ. Those people will be truly joyous for us because we will know that we partook in God’s work to bring that person to himself. That’s one reason why our prayer and witnessing is so important now because we can gain friends for eternity. In our relationships, we won’t be able to recall any sins that had taken place while we are on the earth. They will be perfect, as we are perfect. Any tension or problem that hasn’t been able to be resolved in this life will be completely resolved and gone in the next one. There won’t be any strained relations at all, which is a really great thing that God has done for us. The writer of Hebrews has told us that God has said, “For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more” (Hebrews 8:12, ESV).
