Pregnant At The Rapture

I am six months pregnant. I was thinking about what would happen if I was taken in the Rapture today. Would I still be pregnant in Heaven? I believe that if I did give birth, it would not be painful at all. But if time does not exist in Heaven, then people could not age. So would my unborn child always be a child?

Q. I have a question that I am pretty sure is not covered in the Bible, but I was just curious about your thoughts on the matter.

I know that Heaven is a concept my mind will never be able to grasp while on Earth, but these are things I think about. I would really like to know what you think about this if you have the time.

A. Many students of the Bible believe that at the Rapture, in the twinkling of an eye your child will be born and immediately receive his/her resurrection body. Nobody knows the answer to the age question, but as you say, the process of aging requires the passing of time, something that doesn’t happen for raptured believers. Somehow I think that we’ll all be given an age that provides maximum blessing and enjoyment for us, according to our own unique personalities.
