Adam & Eve cauz I got lotsa questions.
Satan or the snake in paradise, for the same reasons as Adam & Eve.
God cauz I want to know why he created anything if he was already perfect.
Unless it is because He missed something?
Then again, if God did miss something He couldn't be perfect.

Since I am going to be serving them, I will add one more to the list. So here goes; Adam, to ask him what it was like in the beginning; Abraham, well, just because of who he is; Moses, to find out what it was like on the mountain with the Lord; and David, to talk to him about his trials he faced; and finally Peter, and this would be to find out what it was like to be a disciple of Jesus. It would certainly make for an interesting conversation. Could we serve them ham?

Mary. I would love to talk with her about what it was like to be Jesus' mother.

There are too many to mention, but Mary is at the top of my list.

I'm having a hard time coming up with only 4. I'm getting ready to run out the door right now, so I don't really have time to give a lot of details as to the "why", but here's the list...I will try to narrow it down later :

Moses
Solomon
Paul
Silas
Elijah
David
Judas (Yeah, I know, strange choice, but I believe he fulfilled prophecy and that shouldn't be held against him. )

Default My 4...

Peter - to ask how it was to walk on water and follow Jesus

Noah - to get answers about how he built the ark and dealt with the animals

Joseph - to ask how Jesus was like as a child and how he dealt with being the earthly father of God

John - (the baptist) because he seems like a really great guy who would be very enlightening .

... but could Lazarus stop by for dessert ? I'd like to know what it was like to die for three days and then be brought back to life from the human perspective. Just curious, ya know...

Poncius Pilate, Mary Magdelene, Joseph , Satan, Salome and Solomon could make for an interesting evening. I know that's six, but heck if I am going to bother cooking , might as well feed more...

Abraham because he had such great faith
Mary because I would like to more about Jesus as a child
Moses because the Bible calls him a friend of God
Job because through all his trials and tribulations he was always faithful to God.

And since Jesus is there, so is God.
