How did you come to that conclusion? (angels were created from the dust of the field)
My conclusion is that they were not created from the dust (DNA) Men as in mankind . Not administering spirit kind. They were here before day six.
Genesis 6 King James Version (KJV) And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
No daughters of angels
A few reasons. The one below more direct.
Luke 20:34-36 Young's Literal Translation (YLT) And Jesus answering said to them, `The sons of this age do marry and are given in marriage, but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the rising again that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage; for neither are they able to die any more -- for they are like messengers -- and they are sons of God, being sons of the rising again.
No number to keep tract of, all that the father did draw did come.
Remember the church is called the bride in respect to mankind "men and woman" as one new creation . What we are is not what we will be.
For neither are they able to die any more . The lamb book of life the elect will be fulfilled on the last day . No commandment to be fruitful and multiply.
Another, the whole Church, Christ bride is considered the "mother of us all" as a segregate womb . Paul typified as a mother labored as in birth pains until Christ was formed in Timothy. Paul planted the incorruptible seed that could never die. God caused the growth
Paul again acting as a mother espoused Timothy as a chaste virgin bride to Christ our husband.
2 Corinthians 11:2For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
Yes no need for it.(his bride ) He is the spiritual seed. Flesh and blood could never enter the new order it has a life span in dying death comes.
Different things. Like the whole Christianity today is considered the "mother of us all" a segregate womb. We are as new creatures the bride, redeemed mankind .God puts no difference between us. Neither the male or the female has the incorruptible spiritual seed by which we are both born again after.
If there will be no adding or subtracting to the Elect who will never die why look to increase the number?
OP As the bible says yes. People just competely ignoring revelation here...the wedding supper of the lamb anyone?
When the saduccees asked about the seven brothers marrying that one wife who all died one after the other and left no children they were being a little facetious. If It was me answering might have rolled my eyes and answered isnt marrying seven brothers seven times enough for one wife. But what Jesus was getting at is we'll be as the angels which means we wont be having children...Jesus also admonishes the saducees for not reading their bibles....this story is retold about 3 different times in 3 gospels.
Ok for the unmarried Paul does give a lot of advice in corinthians if you care to read and also says virgins are happier unmarried and single. Why because I dont know about you but raising children is a lot of trouble God knows. And if you female, well! If its not the death of you the labour pains are excruciating.
It is not for me to interpret the Bible for anyone you will do well to read youself and come to your own conclusion on the matter. However I just want to encourage you you not really missing out on anything if you dont marry in this life as Lord knows Jesus did not marry either.
And ive just known so many people that entered into a marriage hastily and regret it, they are repenting at leisure. Even if one marries and is happy there comes a day when your spouse will die and you become single again if they die before you! Being a widow isnt easy!
But you see If you know Jesus then you know and have assurance of true love for eternity.

What makes you think that the number of the elect will never increase? In the book of Isaiah it says that gardens will be planted and homes being built. Seems pointless to me if there will never be children being born. Why plant a garden and build a house if you are the only one that will be eating the food and living in the house? I'll just sleep in a tent and eat my veggies out of a can and avoid the hassle of planting and building.
I was a widower too. No, it's not easy and it is a lonely existence, that's why I remarried.
As I have stated in previous posts, marriage is a valid contract between God, a man, and a woman, and is enforceable until the death of one of the consenting parties. Since there is no longer death in heaven and in the new earth there will not be what would be considered marriage in the traditional sense. The thing about angels is that it is not known whether or not there are male and female angels and their physical and spiritual nature is not explicitly stated. It does appear from Genesis that angels have been known to create children. It is also inferred that angels, or at least some of them are male because of the masculine names that are given. Who is to say that there are not female angels too? I certainly hope that this is the case.

I will peruse your blog thread and continue the fascinating character study that you are sharing with the members of this site. It would be nice if more peeps were as open and honest as you are as I really try to get to know who the members are and what they are about. I try to be open and honest in the portrayal of myself as well through the countless number of posts I have written. It was through my posts that allowed who is now my wife to see who I really am. Needless to say she was quite interested. I got to know her through her posts too and saw that she was a wonderful spiritual woman of the Lord. Her name is JesusLives. We met on this site and have been happily married for over 4 years.LOl i gotta run its a beautiful day i cant waste it i gotta walk.
