Will marriages continue in heaven?

I hear people talk about how they look forward to being reunited with their loved ones and even meeting people they did not get to meet while alive? Will your spouse/partner/SO be on your VIP list? Or will you kick them to the curb to be with another? Or is being single the way you want to spend life eternal?

Nah, y’all be married to jaysus. No Homo.
Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
It is a simplistic idea of heaven to extrapolate corporeal reality to the ethereal plane.
And really, heaven is evident right here and now.
The chances of meeting people that you haven’t met while alive are slim.
We are with 7 billion now, and there are over 100 billion people in heaven.
Good luck finding them (no Facebook there…).
Of course there’s always a slight chance of running into your ex.
@rebbel
You would assume that heaven has a matchmaking service, like an online game.
Imagine being reunited in a combat map with your ex wife, and all the women you cheated on her with.
Til death do us part. Sounds like no.
@ragingloli I see what you did there (purposely or not).
No.
Heaven is for joy. Everyone supposedly is loved equally. A marriage would elevate status. Status in heaven doesn’t do that. Besides, of most marriages, only one partner would make it to heaven.
Heaven and hell are what you make of your time here on earth.
The embodiment of anthropomorphic apotheosis predicates eternal bliss.
Although the saying I’ll see you in hell also rings a bell.
No. That’s what hell is for.
I think the Bible says you will recognize your loved ones and be reunited with them. I don’t think that it says you will still be married, but that you will know who they are. Elizabeth Taylor was married 7 times so her Heavenly life will be very busy
I think of all of the Mormons who were married and sealed in this life, and later divorced, then remarried to someone else. They might spend all of eternity in a far distant part of their planet, as far away from all of those “loved ones” as possible.
“Until death do us part”
It is right in the vows.
What do people in Heaven do? Is the concept of marriage in Heaven even meaningful?
My mom took me to church the day I turned one week old, and every Sunday thereafter for nine years. Whenever the family moved, we missed a Sunday or three, but pretty soon there we are, checking out churches.
One fine day, after I’m grown on my own, and have my dd214, she tells me she hopes Christianity is wrong, because she’s scared of hel, but haven sounds boring, just peace and happiness all the time.
@Lost, you asked what people in heaven do. I hope they take turns spinning the spit people like my mom are bound to.
Seems to me, that would vindicate her.
