Not necessarily. When we read scripture it says that Christ in his resurrection body was able to walk through solid mater. The door was locked yet he entered the room. We know the Godhead ate with Abraham before they destroyed Sodom. We can entertain angels unaware. The angels that are under chains left their habitation. Satan can come as a angel of light. This language all denotes the ability to change ones body.

To be able to do this such as the case of Christ in a physical body walking through solid mater. What your body has is the ability to change it's density on a sub atomic level. In other words make your atoms pass through or by other atoms. The angels bodies from scripture have this ability and our new body one like Christ says from scripture it is one like the angels.

To stand in the sun such as scripture says will happen upon the return of Christ the ability to traverse in our natural realm such as fly in the sky anything we imagine angels do and are not harmed nor affected. To be able to do so as a solid object in other objects. To be able to do so what is needed is the ability to change you density. Be able to be hard as diamond or light as air in a manner of speaking depending upon the scenario.

Such a body would have no need for what we know as bodily functions. The problem we have with energy is that it leaves by products as certain molecules or atoms can't be changed so we have by products left over that is waste. So man seeks for clean energy which is the elimination of by products. With nuke at this point being the cleanest even though we don't fully have a 100% conversion into energy. Why anti mater is a interesting prospect to science because it will have a higher yield and why so little is needed because of a conversion into energy on a higher scale.

So all that to say our new bodies could very well contain the ability to change the atoms while inside of us into a form that we can use 100% for energy so that there is no by product or waste. Which is all we would need is the ability change things at a sub atomic level which Christ walking through a solid object does show that for a solid object to do so then you have manipulation at the atomic level. Which would then account for angels being able to shape shift. So if this in fact what those bodies will be able to do then it eliminates any need for our present bodily functions of shedding the by products and waste.

Many of us believe that UFO's, alien sightings, and such are just fallen angles changing form. So it would appear that there is a ability to change ones density or form on a atomic level so do not think it would be all that much harder to do to a object one has eaten to break it down on a atomic level and have full yield on a energy level or be able to do so with whatever we would do with those atoms in a body that clearly seems to have that ability. Anyway that bodily ability would eliminate having to pass waste and by products.
Interesting hypothesis, but it doesn’t exactly confirm or deny what I am seeing. On this particular subject, we have bits and pieces of information from the Bible as to what a glorified resurrected body is and we can deduce and make inferences, but that isn’t conclusive. Sometimes what we think the logical outcome of something should be just isn’t the reality.

Speaking of science, you’re using a scientifically logical approach and a bit New Testament literature to determine what a resurrected body can or cannot do. It might be right, it might not be, (and science proves itself wrong many times) but the fact of the matter is Jesus ate food post-resurrection so one should also logically conclude He had some reason for doing so. That means He had waste as well or else the food vaporized into thin air?

I’m not a big fan of creating fancy theories to shoehorn a doctrine into the Bible. Food is for eating and body nourishment, that’s really about all God made it for so I assume Jesus honored God with using His body precisely within the intended parameters of God’s design.

So personally I still think it’s possible that if someone was married prior to the resurrection they may have a wife or husband post resurrection.

That is just it God is the ultimate scientist and mathematician. He says his ways are above our ways. However, he also says that there is a simplicity in his ways that confound the wise. He is orderly and what we know today, that we call science is orderly and logical. God is God no denying that but once things are revealed either natural or spiritual there is simplicity to them and order. Which is what he says.

There are rules that are set forth by God that rules both the natural and the spirit realm. What is incredible when we think of it is he by the creation of man through Christ will marry these two realms. For now we have two sets of rules for each. Take for example time. Time as we know is change. In fact absent time could be no salvation. When God created our natural realm he created with a set of rules outside eternity. I say eternity because when we look at how God defines eternity he defines it as change. The same yesterday, today, and forever. I am the Lord thy God I change not.

The sprit realm is one of eternity and eternity has no change. Your will in heaven be done here on earth. As we know anyone who is to be saved has to do so here on earth. As when they hit the after life the eternal or spirit realm that is their condition for eternity. So salvation must be accomplished here on earth where God has set rules that unlike eternity change is allowed. The creation points to how change is the core or foundational to our realm. The evening and the morning where the first day. On the 4th day we have the creation of celestial bodies that mark the seasons and of course the changing of time. Just like time was before us and was already in operation when we received our first watch. Such is the case with the beginning of creation time was present and now man had a watch to keep time on the 4th day. Same as time in existence before us when we received our first watch it was nothing more than the ability to keep time. Which again time equals change an change is needed if you are to have repentance. As we know eternity doesn't allow change because it is governed by God and there is no shadow of change in him.

As God is self existing the rules of the spirit realm exist in such a manner as they are the sum total of what he is as they exist by him and reflect who he is and his glory of who he is. We are the anomaly but will come a day when all will both the natural realm and the spirit realm will be married to reflect who he is. Just as we were created to image God so will all his creation once again as intended.

The natural realm will exist but under rules of the eternal. In other words time will be no more as the veil that separates the two worlds will be no more and there will be access to both and they shall be married and exist imaging God as his intentions for his creation is to do just that.

As far as sex and digestion goes the problem would be for sex you need blood as it is blood that fills up a erection then sustains a erection. Which our bodies will not be flesh and blood but flesh and bone. Blood is also needed for digestion and it is blood that carries the nutrients for food throughout the body, which again our bodies will have no blood. Also a woman's natural lubrication comes from her sweat. Which after the fall we learn that man shall work by the sweat of his brow. So would appear that such a function is the aftermath of the curse. However those two are needed in a sexual act to sustain the act as well as to lubricate so there is no friction. So we would have to solve for friction absent a key component. As well as we would have to solve for the sustaining of such a act absent the key component which is what blood does to sustain the act. As well as for food we have to solve for digestion absent a key component again in blood.

I find God logical and if those components are not present in our next body I find it would be like was said it does not appear what we shall be but we shall be like him. So since we are gonna be like him does Christ need to digest food and does he need to have sex for pleasure? I don't believe so and since we are gonna be like him and the order of balance restored where we will image or reflect God by becoming like Christ. I find that our purpose will be to show forth his glory and his wisdom and majesty by being a creation that has his fingerprints all over it and reflects the glory and majesty he is. Which I have come to this conclusion by looking at who God is and knowing his plan is that we are like him or we reflect him and looking at it as how God explains who he is and the logic God truly is and how his creation can be explained in mathematical and understandable ways. Since this is what he has done and he does not change do not think what is part of the old will be part of the new.

However, I do agree with ya bro I am trying to piece together absent data so have to conclude as I did with the data I have. Which part would be that we are pottery he created to carry out the will of the master. Sexual immorality falls into a category of rebellion against the intended natural use God declared. If you are one like myself and others who believe that fallen angels had sex with human women as Jude would point to as well as Peter. Their punishment was for a act that they were not created for. As well as homosexuality again is a act not created for and rebellion against God. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft reason being is that witchcraft is demonic it is occultism. Occultism is dealing in the demonic realm. Satan and the demonic realm rebelled against God that was there sin and so again show's the logic of God how rebellion is the same as witchcraft because that is a sin of the demonic world, the occult world, the world of witchcraft. So just find God logical and don't think he will violate who he is as that would be impossible as that would make him a liar. So anyway not sure if it makes sense but trying to not go long to go into more lengthy detail but be as brisk as possible. Anyway always enjoy a discourse or convo with you as there is always a lack of pride and strife in the interaction. Wish you a great Friday and blessed weekend my friend.

As well not sure even going into more detail if it would not be just a more lengthy circular conversation on my part. So have the last word my friend and again have enjoyed yet again another discourse with you. Peace my brother.

YES! There will be plenty of sex in Heaven, BUT it will all depends on what TIER you’ll be.
If you’re on tier 3, no sex for you.
But on tier 1 you’ll have sex all day long.
These threads about Tiers of Heaven and the materialistic approach of it are some of my favorites in this forum for many reasons.
Thank you friends.

Marriage is not required to have sex. Look at Genesis Chap 6. When the Sons of GOD saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, they took for themselves wives. These fallen angels had sexual desires.

I dont think we will need to reproduce in the flesh or have carnal desires in heaven

Our heavenly bodies will be perfect, and it may be there will be 'no male, nor female' all will be one in Christ

The joy we will experience will be for eternity and will have no side effects lol it wont be like sex that only lasts for so long.

will there be sex in heaven? Perhaps not as we might know it on earth but there will be love!

I get the impression some people really should switch to that religion where you get 72 virgins.

I also might clarify, I believe sex consummates a marriage. In other words, marriage isn’t marriage unless there is sex. Sex is what becoming “one flesh is.”
I agree completely. re: Jacob wound up MARRIED to the wrong gal (surprise) by having sex with her.

A related question is, are there bathrooms in Heaven??? There's talk about eating in Heaven, which generally suggests by-products thereof.

The Sadducees asked an interesting question about marriage. (Matt 22:23-32) So from this it seems not, BUT!!!! What about the angels in Genisis 6:1-7 Now after Jesus came and died and rose did, he fixes the angels so they could no longer have sex?? It seems from Matt 22 that he did. But you can decide for yourself.

I remember long ago before my ministry I had gone to a Baptist camp meeting, there were about 20 people who went, about 8 females and the rest male, there at least on my part was no thought of having sex, because all were with one accord in looking to move Jesus on our behalf, which on the second day he did!

About four of us departed from the rest to praise and sing to the Lord, suddenly after about 5 to 10 min the rest came to where we were saying we heard singing from a multitude of people!!!

Where is the rest of the people who were also singing?? As they joined us some began to speak in other languages!! LOL The Lord moved, and in heaven where he dwells with us in the flesh, I cannot believe anyone is concerned about having sex. But hey!!!! I could be wrong!!! LOL, I saw how many hoped there would be. Very interesting!!

The "joining of flesh" = MARRIAGE

The Rules were different in the Old Testament (Because of the hardness of your hearts Mat 19:8). God apparently KNEW what a MONSTER SEX was to humans, and without the Holy Spirit indwelling to CHANGE us, it wasn't going to be controllable.

rules change all the time.
You can marry 600 wives (King Solomon?) or you could just have one. Or you could fornicate and have sex and NOT marry the one you had sex with. The NT woman with five ex husbands wasn't married to the one she was living with....

I don't think this question makes sense like the Saducees were always asking Jesus strange questions like this...

Muslims believe some very strange things about the afterlife as do Mormons. Like heaven is some kind of orgy for men.

Where everyone has sex and nobody ever gets pregnant, as if that does not even happen after you have sex lol.

If there's sex in heaven, there will be lots and lots of babies right?

One way to know would be to see if there are any storks in heaven.
