There is no hate or ill will in Heaven, so I don't think that would be a concern.

No, but I don't claim to be perfect either. Its tough being Christian because what Jesus asks of us goes against human nature.

The response was to what Islam/Mohammed offers one in Heaven. Are you saying that Jesus doesn't offer what you want in heaven? (The things you are talking about here are earthly things, and are largely prohibited or restricted by Islam as well).

There is no possible way to link that Hebrews scripture with God making clothes for A&E beyond reading waaay too much into the account.

Perhaps then you'd care to explain why Jesus' daddy created us with that pesky human nature in the first place?
