Grieving the loss of my brother and sister-in-law's 8 week old "in utero" baby...I am thankful we can peacefully assume he/she is in Heaven, but it did make me wonder...are there any reasons to believe this "embryo" would be a fully developed human in Heaven? I am comforting myself with this thought, but I didn't know if there are any Scripture references to support it, or if the Puritans wrote about it at all, considering they lost so many infants themselves. It seems like an impossibilty for miscarried babies to remain embryos for eternity - but then, what about babies that die? Three year olds? Are we all one age in Heaven? Am I prying into the secret things of God? Just didn't know what was written about it, if anything. Thanks. (And I really don't know if this is the right forum for this question. It seems somewhat theological in nature.)
