Will there be food in heaven to eat?

[Rania]

I would like to hear what others have to say also. Let see, I like steak, but there will be no animals in Heaven, let alone the slaughter of one. Heaven has no soil, so I guess vegies and fruits are out. Guess that would also eliminate any possibility of grains and the like. If there is going to be food, it must be what ever God drums up!

Where in the world did you get this idea? No soil in heaven? No vegies and fruit?

You are standing on what will one day be a new earth in it's perfect state. That will be heaven.

That, my dear friend, will be the new earth. It may seem like heaven to us now, but it is not Heaven. When we pray to our Father which is in Heaven, I'm 100% positive it's not Detroit or LA or any other place on this earth.

And whatever He "drums up" will be literally, "out of this world". It will be the most magnificent feast we have ever had, for He does not treat His kids shabbily. BTW, what does a glorified body need with food anyway? By definition, it is imortal. Jesus asked for food in His glorified body not because He needed it for sustenance, but to prove to His disciples that He was not just a ghost or an appariation, but was, in fact, there in the "flesh" so to speak. He was real, alive, and present with His disciples that Ressurection day. The best way to prove this was to ask for some food and consume it in front of them, something a spirit or a ghostly apparation couldn't do.

I do realize that Jesus was just asking for it to prove that He was real...I guess I was just trying to make the point that it is possible to eat something phisical with your glorified body. So would it be logical to say that if God created it to eat, obviously among other things, would that not be something we would be doing in heaven? That is where I am trying to go in this thread. I guess this is like one of those qustions that children ask, "What is heaven going to be like?" You know...just cerious type of thing.

Totally agree. So in heaven without the glorified body, just our spirit man, we can not eat anything...but when we get our glorified body, chow time?

kittyjo - The Word of the Lord is our bread and the honey is the sweet sound of heavenly praise to Him.

There is a lot of symbology in the bible...do you think Rev 19:9 "The marrage supper of the lamb" is symbolic for anything?

II Shiloh 10:16, there will be chocolate in heaven. It grows on trees and the angels will pick it for us and bring it our mansions.

This is hilarious! I must warn you Shiloh my friend...The bible is very clear on what happens to people that add to God's word

[Trusting Jesus]

First, if there is chocolate, I hope it won't make me gain weight.

Second, there will too be animals in Heaven ...... at least cats....... howelse do you make the harp strings?

Third (on a more serious note) there will be the marriage supper of the Lamb.

Fourth, welcome Rosielee!

Jesus ate food - fish sandwiches - in His resurrection Body in John Chapter 21, and the Bible says that one day "we'll be like Him." But, alas, no one can guarantee a StarBucks!

Hey yeah. Good point Arthur...I forgot about the fish He ate.

I know I will probably get a lot of frowns on this one, but I am not a big fan of coffee so no starbucks in heaven will be fine with me.

Pastor Walter Snyder said:

"The various pictures of the marriage feast, including those in Matthew 22 and 25 and Revelation

19:7 also indicate the possibility of eternal banqueting. While this "feast" may be figurative,

speaking of a great festival or celebration, we can't discount the possibility that God intends for

us to actually eat and drink, just as our first parents did even before the Fall.

Ultimately, while some Scriptures indicate at least the possibility of eating in the hereafter, we

cannot know for sure. We do know that we will have physical bodies in the resurrection and if

these will need food, God will provide better than we can imaging. What this might be, we'll leave

up to His perfect will and knowledge. Any food God will give, whether spiritual or physical, will

be the best beyond imagination."
