| It might be that resurrection does not mean eternity, but regardless, here's my question:If your wife is not your wife during the resurrection, are your children your children? Might it be that every bond--marital or blood--is done away with the in resurrection?And your children are your children, it's seems somewhat untoward to have children in what would seem to be something akin to an out of wedlock situation. |

| Aaron,We are on the wrong side of the Resurrection to answer that question. We are limited in our understanding by our finite minds when it comes to the eternal nature of life after the resurrection. We do not have all the information about heaven yet (we know in part), but at the Resurrection/Second Coming we will see what its all about. |

| Finally, the moment I FINALLY will get my act fully together and be a perfect husband...that's no longer an option. It seems to me that this indicates that marriage is seldom the bliss that many claim that it is or should be, but is rather a carnal, fleshly convenience that will be done away with when we are perfected. In fact, it might be that our imperfection is what makes us see the need for marriage.No wonder Paul said that those who marry will have trouble in the flesh. |

| I don't think this view is reasonable when we consider the things we do know about marriage. For example, we know that children are a blessing from God, and that they cannot be born in accordance with God's standards through anything but marriage. We know that the command to be fruitful and multiply cannot be obeyed without marriage. Therefore, it does not stand to reason that marriage is just some carnal convenience. The Bible says that he who finds a wife finds a good thing. |

| If marriage is an honorable institution designed by God,and if God is 100% pro marriage,why would He dissolve marriage in the next life? Are we to assume that marriage is one of those former things that has passed away “Hell will be filled with people that didn’t cuss, didn’t drink, and may even have been baptized. Why? Because none of those things makes someone a Christian.” |

| I would think the question Jesus was answering about marriage in heaven would give context to understanding the nature of our resurrected body as well as the New Heaven and the New Earth. In this life you may have just one God ordained marriage, or you could have more than one, depending on circumstances. To enter eternity with God the spiritual condition of your wife (wives) does not factor in, its your relationship with Christ that matters. Now the Mormons teach the wife/wives of the Mormon man will have to wait in the grave until her/their husband calls her/them out. Then she/they will be eternally pregnant so they may populate the world they will be gods over. My wife says that would not be heaven to her.The Muslims say they are going to have sex in heaven a lot (you know the promise of many virgins for the faithful and martyrs). Not sure where that leaves the Muslim wives, but I'm thinking in Muslim heaven there will be a shortage of virgins (we are already seeing that shortage on earth these days).For Christians, we have some instruction/teaching on the nature of eternal life in heaven, but its the One who sits on the Throne whose going to fill in the missing details. |

The Bible says that he who finds a wife finds a good thing.We are not told how marriage will look in the resurrection. But we will err if we make guesses about it through any lens other than what we do know about marriage. To say that those who marry will have trouble (in the context of a church suffering immediate persecution) is not the same as saying that marriage is somehow wrong or an accommodation for our sin. |
