Certainly there will be things for us to do, but we don't have to follow the false beliefs of non-Christian.

There's nothing in the Bible about us being able to fly like a bird in God's Kingdom. Is it possible that we will nevertheless be able to engage in flying when we're there?

I obtain quite a bit of useful information from YouTube; for example how to
replace a microwave oven motor, resolve a computer issue, adjust an
electric guitar's intonation. and/or the proper way to position a lawnmower
for an oil change.

I also tour the world with YouTube, visiting amazing man-made wonders and
natural wonders too. I will likely never travel and get to see those wonders
for myself as they really are before I'm dead; but out ahead is coming a
one-thousand year era on Earth wherein I've no doubt there will be plenty of
opportunity to see everything in the next life that I missed in this one.

Rev 20:6 . . Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first
resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be
priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.

I suspect that God is keeping a massive, fully comprehensive library that can
satisfy all my curiosity-- an archive of information far exceeding the contents
of the great library of Alexandria. For example: how did the ancient
Egyptians build the pyramids? How did the people of Easter Island move
those massive stone heads into position? Is there an end to space; and if so,
what's on the other side? Things like that; but also nature's secrets too. How
did nature fashion those remarkable rock formations in Utah? Or carve out
the Grand Canyon?

There are many mysteries like those that I sincerely hope to find answers to
some day. But people in Hell won't be allowed access to God's library. They
will never get answers to their deepest questions about the cosmos; nor be
allowed to travel to all the exotic places on Earth that they missed in this life
before passing on to the next.

Another benefit to the coming era is safety. I will have nothing to fear from
either the human world nor the animal kingdom. I love to explore, but tend
to avoid places that might cost me my life. Well; in the future, I'll be able to
explore every corner of the globe to my heart's content and thoroughly
enjoy myself without worrying about hazards associated with the journey
like piranha, head hunters, deadly reptiles, predatory beasts, poisonous
insects, toxic vegetation, hijackers, terrorists, and/or bandits, etc.

One thing that prevents many of us from touring the world is old age. Well,
those of us who make the cut will be immortal, so that diminished capacity
will never again be a factor dictating what we can eat and drink, were we
can go, nor whether we can make it.

People on the wrong side of the afterlife are not only in terrible discomfort,
and existing in monotonous dismal circumstances, but they have no future
to speak of. They're on track to miss out on the pleasures of adventure,
discovery, and exploration; which are three very stimulating activities that,
just about everybody I've ever met would agree, make living worthwhile.

It would be awesome to time travel and visit many places and events!
Can you think of a time and place you’d like to visit?
Where and when in the history of mankind have things been so good that you’d want to want to pick such a time and place? There has been no good rulership in the history of mankind apart from brief periods of Israel’s good kings in Bible times….all the rest were horrible and incurred God’s anger and punishment. (1John 5:19)
When have there not been wars, pestilence, crime and violence? Wicked people have held rulership under the devil’s influence since the rebellion….resulting in more periods of woe, than of achievement, peace and happiness. Who today are truly happy, when everything is falling apart? All of man’s endeavors have led to sinister outcomes. His weapons becoming more heinous with each passing decade.

We are to look forward to the rulership of Christ and his chosen ones, where the wicked will be eliminated from existence, and God will take redeemed ones back to the beginning, for God to start afresh, with his government ruling over his people. (Rev 21:2-4; Daniel 2:44)

This earth was designed to be man’s permanent home…..originally, there was no need for any human to go to heaven. We were put here for a reason…..(Gen 1:26-31) That reason never went away.

I hope that I am selected to be the judge of the folks that changed the recipe for Mcdonald's chicken nuggets.
James and John wanted left and right hand seats next to Jesus in the Kingdom. They wanted positions of authority not positions of service. They also wanted to fry the Samaritans who were unkind to them.....the sort of thing men love to exercise but God's Kingdom doesn't consist of these values.

What will we do in God's Kingdom?

See the Lord God AS HE IS…Spirit!

Worship the Lord God.

Experience unimaginable Beauty.

Receive more of His Knowledge and Understanding.

BE utterly VOID of subjection to naysayers, wickedness, evil, fear, corruption, disease, sorrow, tribulations, wrath.


Glory to God,
Taken

Basically anything we want. Even though I don't have a verse to back me up, I think as Heaven as a place that has everything we have down here, only better. Heaven is a city, and what is a city if it doesn't have all sorts of attractions? I don't see why we would have something good down here but not up there.
