Who will be married to who?
YellowStone:
Hi everyone,
I have always had this question and I do not think it will ever be answered in this life; however, an email to Ray and his response has prompted me to ask anyhow. :)
Will We Know Our Loved Ones
In the Dark asked:
Do you have any scriptural proof that we know our loved ones in our future life? Does one scripture exist to prove this? I would like to hear it.
Dear In the Dark:
What I marvel at is where did the idea ever come from that maybe we WOUND'T know our loved ones in our future life? Where and why would anyone ever come up with such a question? When we go to sleep at night, will we recognize our mate and children in the morning when we awaken? I am just floored by the absurdity of the question. Where did such a question ever come from?
Will we remember our own name in our future life? Will we remember that we even lived before? Maybe we will be a different person and even we ourselves will not know who we are? Will we remember whether we were a male or a female? Will God even know who we are? I'm sorry, but to me the question is beyond bizarre.
Of course we will know our loved ones, and we don't need a Scripture for proof of it. Matt. 8:11; Luke13:29--We will not only now our loved ones, but we will know people we didn't know in this life. Matt. 22:28-- People will know who there WIFE was. Matt. 19:28--the Apostles will all know each other, etc., etc., etc.
God be with you,
Ray
So here is my question. My wife's first husband was killed and now she is married to me. :)
Which of the following do you think will happen:
1. My Wife will have two husbands
2. The first husband will have my wife as his
3. I will be the husband of my wife
4. My wife say's to her self, what was I thinking and marries another.... :) :)
Or all of this pointless in regard to this:
Luk 20:34-35
34. And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: 35. But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
So does that mean that love and marriage, families and relatives are no longer?
Does this mean that their are neither husbands and wives, then the need for both to compliment one another in order to become whole. This has unforseen implications:
Eph 5:23
* For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
Since there is no more marriage then does this mean that the husband is no longer the head of his wife; if so then is Christ no longer the head of the church?
Are you still with me :)
Perhaps there is no more marriage in order for there to be no more husbands and wives and similariliy, there is no more church at least in the way we see the church today.
Like I said, perhaps these questions cannot be answered; however, because we all long for our future with God, surely I am not the only one who has considered such thoughts.
Lot's of love to you all,
Darren

Darren,
You answered your own question, and supplied the scripture... Pointless :) :)

Hi Darren,
The way I'm thinking is you have to look at the order of things... to marry is for the humanity in this age.
From the 1000 year reign and forward, those few in the first resurrection will be ruling with Christ, the elect will then be married to Christ. The rest of the world during that time will still be in their earthly body, but this world will undergo profound changes when Christ returns... what does that all in-tale? Will there still be marriage and child birth and all involved with that. It doesn't say in Scripture that I have found, but the next age is for "judgment."
John 5:29 and come forth— those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation(G2920).
Strong's
G2920 by extension a tribunal; by implication justice (specifically divine law): - accusation, condemnation, damnation, judgment.
If this age is for the process of good and evil for the people born into it and then the next age for the judgment of those. Will there still be marriage and more births?
But of course God gives everybody back their own spirit and memories... it's a new body we will receive, but we need all the memories of what we learned in this life and all else. So I do think we will know everybody. And will will have to give account, what use would that be if we couldn't remember what we did? Anyway hope that helps.
mercy, peace, and love

Hi all,
Just popped in and seen thread.
The way i see it is, we will be spiritual "bodies". Love will reign. Love will be what heaven is all about. Marriage on earth now (is a shadow) to prepare us,to be a bride (husband or wife) , for Jesus coming to claim us. It is easy to love those that love us, what chastening, tribulations and teachings on earth by the HS is all about, is agape love.
God Bless Us all

Prosizz:
I am not sure if I completely adhere to kat's argument. It sounds to me like a new doctrine. How do you presume that while christ is reigning with the elect, they rein in spirit while other are in body and continuing their lives, giving to marriage and being married? I am not sure if I miss something here. Is there any scriptural proof of what you are saying?
Or is it just an assumption?
Christ right now is spirit, satan and demon are spirits, the father is spirit. and the chronology is Father, son and the rest. Will Christ and the elects as spiritual beings cannot rule over other spiritual beings as God, spiritual being is ruling over other principalities and power in the heavenly places which are spiritual being? My confusion is the assertion that the elects and Christ rule over human being. Perhaps there are scriptures I am not familiar with that support Kat's posting.
I will appreciate any help.
Thanks.
