Have you ever considered the question of whether we will recognize loved ones in heaven? It is a topic considered and discussed specifically in larger works by English Puritans (such as Thomas Watson and Richard Baxter), and by Dutch Puritans (such as Wilhelmus à Brakel) - but at least three American Presbyterians have written full-length books on the subject. And among the resources available at Log College Press is an article by J. Gray McAllister.
William Aikman - Heavenly Recognitions (1883)
John Aspinwall Hodge - Recognition After Death (1889)
Thomas De Witt Talmage - Heavenly Recognition (1897)
James Gray McAllister - Recognition in Heaven (1902)
If you have an interest in this issue, be sure to check out the works referenced above. According to the light given to us from Scripture, there is hope and comfort in the doctrine that the saints will know one another in heaven.
