Protestants: Are people in heaven aware of what happens here?

[lucyenglish77]

I read a non-Catholic Christian’s post stating that people in heaven “have no knowledge of what happens on earth as you have none of heaven now.”

What do you think?

You know, I really don’t understand this statement.

“People in heaven ‘have no knowledge of what happens on earth as you have none of heaven now.’”

What about the saints in heaven? Don’t they pray for us?

Actually, I think people have some knowledge of what happens on earth. My RCIA sponsor once told me that the people in heaven are not dead but are alive.

To me, it sounds like the statement came from not a Protestant but from someone (maybe a deist?) who think that once you die, that’s it. You will never see that person again. The person just sit there into a vast of nothingness. In other words, there is no eternal life.
