There was a twang of sarcasm in my post. (In relation to another Christian who has previously put forward that proposition).

You quote the bible for sarcasm?

Elvis Presley was a very remarkable individual. He had millions of fans.

Will he be treated better in Heaven than 'average' people?

Does Heaven consider such things?

Yes. He gave back to the world and thats what counts at the pearly gates

If Heaven existed, and you went there, (unlikely), who would you want to meet?

@chaney3

Karl Marx and Benny Hill.

Benny Hill???

Only people who secretly adore women's boobies like him.

I am flabbergasted.

“For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind."

Isaiah 65:17

This sort of shows that the great things done on earth, for all selfish and worldly
reasons are nothing more than like moving the chairs around the Titanic as its
sinking. Its the lasting things that matter, as we brought nothing into this world
and will take nothing out of it, so what are the important things? What are those
things making one rich towards God?

Job 1:
20 Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head and fell on the ground and worshiped. 21 And he said, “Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return. The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.”

Luke 12:20-21 English Standard Version (ESV)
20 But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ 21 So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”

So, love your neighbour while on Earth, forget all about that love when in heaven?

There will be an accounting for all that is done on earth good and bad. Heaven is
a Kingdom where Love is King, it will be the motivation for all that is said and
done. Its a matter of priority, what is important there needs to be important here
too, but not everyone behaves that way.

Will the love a son has for his mother still be remembered when both are in heaven?

I say yes. 100%

If I was a Christian, and believed in a perfectly loving deity, I would agree with you.

Don’t know, I imagine the transformation from corruptible to incorruptible with love being the lone motivation within all will dwarf all here. I don’t know what will be lost, but our nature changes I don’t see how that can be done without loss. I trust that anything taken will swamped by all given.
