Joan's husband died. They had been friends since childhood, gently but very deeply in love with each other.
Tim had loved Joan from afar for many years, might even say he was devotedvto her. He did not rush into things but supported Joan when she needed and they became closer and closer friends. Eventually they married, they were getting on and the mutual support was valued.
Both were killed in a tragic car crash, not of their causing.
On passing into Heaven only one thought was in Joan's mind, she could now rejoin her late husbsnd, her first and only true love. But whst would that do to Tim?
No matter what his feelings of support for Joan was he to lose her and duffer from that loss?
Or should Joan forgo reunion for Tim's sake?
Or would Heaven make sure that both their needs were unnecessary? Or find a way to satisfy both? Or . . .?
Wonder what Christians would answer . . .

Re: A Christian dilemma
I think this is essentially the Pharisee challenge to Jesus. Nice guy that he was, he simply evaded a perfectly reasonable question by saying that things were different in Heaven from on Earth, Unfortunately, this evasiveness does not seem to prevent his followers from believing in his infallibility and divinity
Re: A Christian dilemma
Indeed, animist. It just goes in the too difficult pile, but God can solve it perfectly!
