What does "glorified being" refer to? I think this is tricky...If it means a saved person...then literally, his or her descendents might still fall...but their sin does not come from any glorified being.

What I mean is this: when we are Raptures, Christ gives us glorified bodies. If we can still procreate (I see no reason why we wouldn't), is our offspring also glorified?

That seems what puritans believed...but that is not always the case...it was often used as an excuse to exclude those who didn't have religious parents, while a lot of descendants of the Puritans could still enjoy full membership at church despite of their little interest in the spiritual aspect. Children do not always spiritually follow their parents, though they do have better chances.

Angels neither marry nor procreate and so will it be with glorified beings.

Matt 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

Luke 20:35-36
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:
36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

Why would a glorified body want anything to do with a body thats not glorified?
If two glorified bodies are sinless how could sin be passed down?
Who says glorified bodies will still procreate? There is no evidence of sexual activity in heaven.
Seems a moot question.

Starfield is correct, sorry it took so long to comment! Since we will not be given to marriage when we receive our glorified bodies we will not procreate.

My question now is,.. Who the populates the Earth in the Millenial Kingdom? Sin has to come from somewhere since there are those who rebel inwardly during His reign and at the end of it rebel outwardly with Satan.

Yes, we are Pre-Millenial, dispensational, Pre-wrath, 6 point Calvinists.

Just for reference, Alan Kurschner is not my Dad. He is a great Author that my Dad and I are close to.

okay...thanks for pointing that out:)

i'll keep watching to see if there's any (any at all) documentation on a future 1,000 years - what happens during it and what it is for.

your question about glorified beings procreating is good start i guess.
there's no resolution to it of course.
but it's an excellent place to eventually find out why the 1,000 years is impossible.

but not to derail your thread (unless it was ultimately about a future millennium).

there will be no procreation in our glorified bodies. Scripture says there will be no man or wife in heaven.

It would be those left when Christ returns. He who endures to the end will be saved.. And enter the kingdom with Christ. They will procreate.

Technically yes. Since the Church will be reigning with Christ in His Kingdom, my question is how does sin get introduced into this Kingdom?
