It is true that after the Resurrection we will live in a relational state of esoteric equilibrium where all relationships are the same?
This mean we are to love our spouses just as we are to love God and our neighbors. Love all at equal levels.

Some people say this ideal of equilibrium fits more in with a pantheistic worldview where all is god and upon death we are diluted into this Great Energy.

What do you all think?
 
What the revealed written Word of God says about the life after this one is that no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived" -- the things God has prepared for those who love him-- and also we are told that we will not be given in marriage, and that our tears will be wiped away, there will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. We shall have a life more abundant through faith in Jesus' sacrifice upon the cross, where He poured out His righteous blood unto death to pay the sin debt of the world due to His great love for us :)
 
There will be no marriage in heaven,for all the saints will be a soul with a glorified body,so they are all the same essence and no difference between them,and all spirits go back to God who gave them.

That is why Jesus said they will not marry in heaven,but be like the angels,for the angels have no gender,but are all the same essence.

So the people that were married on earth,will no longer be married in heaven,for the flesh is put off,and they are the same essence,which people can only marry while in the flesh,for there is a difference between them,and the only thing that separates a man and a woman is the flesh,the spirit and soul are the same,and they will put off the flesh,and the glorified body is all the same with no gender.

But when the resurrection happens the saints will still remember this earth,and heaven,but when they get to the New Jerusalem,the new earth,and new heaven,the former earth shall not be remembered,or come to mind.

So when the saints get to the New Jerusalem,the final destination of the saints,they will not even remember they had a spouse,and they will not remember anything concerning the earth,never knew it existed,and it will never come to mind,and all they will know is the New Jerusalem,and what they observe there,and will know nothing of anything else,and the same with the angels,they will not remember anything either.

And that is because it is a fresh start,and rebellion will never come up again.
 
Charles Spurgeon, considered by many to be the greatest preacher in history, had avery interesting and unique perspective on this issue. He writes, "I expect to see and know all the saints, to recognize them, and rejoice with them, and that without the slightest prejudice to my being wholly absorbed in the sight of my Lord. Let me explain to you how this can be. When I went the other day into a friend's drawing-room, I observed that on all sides there were mirrors. The whole of the walls were covered with glass, and everywhere I looked I kept seeing my friend. It was not necessary that I should fix my eyes upon him, for all the mirrors reflected him. Thus, brethren, it seems to me that every saint in heaven will be a mirror of Christ, and that as we look upon all the loved ones, gazing round upon them all, we shall see Christ in every one of them, so we shall still be seeing the Master in the servants, seeing the head in all the members. It is I in them, and they in me. Is it not so? It will be all the Master. This is the sum total of heaven." Spurgeon saw no problem in loving one's mate forever, for it would not be a conflict with loving one's Lord supremely.

We will love and be loved perfectly. There will be no "equilibrium" as there will be no opposing forces to balance.
 
I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me,just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.You are my friends if you do what I command you.

I can see by your question, that you have not had God's Spirit pay you a "visit". Elstwise, you would not have need to ask such a silly question with such words! G'luck in yer searching/s!
