If God wanted more children, wouldn?t he generate them like a pre incarnate Jesus? Not weak bags of flesh. What is a glorified body of a believer supposed to be? Is it ontologically superior to a human body? Can such a being do things a normal human can?t? Is it beyond human imagination (including your wildest dreams)?

Sometimes, I hope what we can do in our dreams (flying, etc) is a foreshadowing of a future existence and God is possibly giving people a preview of what?s possible in another life? Just my speculation.

Our Father's plan is flawless. It has been devised within Himself and is being outworked in precise detail to His satisfaction.

"Earth's crammed with heaven, and every common bush afire with God, but only he who sees takes off his shoes."
Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?

The mill of God grinds slowly...but it grinds exceedingly fine.  Wait patiently for your redemption and glorification.  It will be worth the wait.
Socrates taught Plato.  Plato taught Aristotle.  Aristotle tutored the son of Philip of Macedon.  This boy grew up to become Alexander the Great, largely by slaughtering a lot of people.  That's philosophy.

Jesus spoke the Truth.  He blessed the poor.  He healed the sick.  He even raised the dead.  He died on a cross for us, lived again, and came back long enough to tell us to love one another.  That's religion.

YHVH = Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand = Jesus

Unity Founder Charles Fillmore used to say that we would indeed fly in the future, and he believed it.
