    Actually, nobody goes to heaven when they die (according to the bible). Everyone must wait until judgement day when all the graves, etc, open and we all face judgement at that point. This surprised me when I first learned it because it goes against all the Christian culture I’ve ever been taught and experienced.

    So grandma isn’t currently in heaven no matter how good she was.

      That’s a huge relief that perhaps my grandparents haven’t seen my embarrassing moments after all.

      and judgement is not “brought back to life just to be sent back immediately”… no, it will be a good span of time to live without evil on the earth…
