Yeah, I know, I have posts to respond to...but while I was looking up passages for my response on the Heavenly Mother thread, I came across this. I never put these two passages together before:
So marriage is really part of the law for living on earth, and only applies to life on earth. Why else would Jesus give "they can't die" as the reason why people don't get married in heaven?
the law is binding on a person only as long as he lives? For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage.for they cannot die anymore, because they are equal to angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection." (Luke 20:34-36)
