Bible Question (short): No marriage b/c we are bride of Jesus? |
Question (full): Matthew 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. Mark 12:25 For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. Luke 20:35 but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage. Jesus says that after resurrection, nobody marries. Is that because we, male or female, are the bride of Jesus and all of us already have a husband, Jesus, so it doesn't make sense for us to marry anyone else (of course, including sex with any human)? Relationships with the Lord will replace those with a human spouse. We desire to be resurrected (or raptured), unite with Jesus, reign with Him, and spend eternity with Him, but it appears we are very much ignorant of the life in the Kingdom of God that comes with our resurrection. A major reason might be the Bible is silent about it, but we focus too much on the earthly life issues. Anyhow, it looks very sure that there will be wonders after wonders in the Kingdom of God because the life there is very much different from that now and that we will be so excited and busy to learn about and enjoy every of them. |
