Ok ~ Random question.....
IF the concept of heaven is believed by one to be the final "resting place" where all your loved ones eventually show up to be together again forever and ever (Unless they've done something really bad and you believe that they'll be or already in hell)..... What do you think happens when a spouse passes away say before the age of 50 or even 60.... and the other spouse eventually remarries??? ..... What do you think happens then? If maybe the spouse that passed away is waiting patiently in heaven for the day to be reunited with their significant other .... then say the significant other and their new spouse live another 20 years together before they pass away.... Who does the spouse that lived and re-married "go to" when getting to heaven? The original spouse who has been patiently waiting (And say they were married for 20+ years too), Or the latest spouse? 

From what the Bible says about it, it says there will not be marriages or those kinds of relationships in Heaven. You won't be reunited with spouses to be paired up in Heaven. Everyone will be connected like family, but not married or connected that way.

So you could have multiple ex partners, it wouldn't matter. You'll know each other but that's it. It also says that old things and ways will cease and be no more, everything begins anew. 

Here's the scripture, I forgot which one it was and had to look it up. Lol

Matthew 22 ternational Version
At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven. 

So everyone in heaven is promiscuous? Like a big swinger party? 

I'll take a shot at the "spiritual" question. In the spiritual world, relationships are not as we think as human beings. There's an understanding that surpasses all social constructs. The spirit exists as an entity that loves unconditionally.

Your human conflicts or worries are not reasons to not love.

There is a peace that surpasses the peace experience of this life. There is a blending with all other spirits in a relationship of understanding and love.

Physical limitations and boundaries no longer exist. 

So even one's children will supposedly be like just some random person, but not their child ~ Or parent, etc.... ??? 

The Bible tells us, "At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven" (Matthew 22:30). This was Jesus answer in response to a question concerning a woman who had been married multiple times in her life ?whom would she be married to in heaven (Matthew 22:23-28)? Evidently, there will be no such thing as marriage in heaven. This does not mean that a husband and wife will no longer know each other in heaven. This also does not mean that a husband and wife could not still have a close relationship in heaven. What it does seem to indicate, though, is that a husband and wife will no longer be married in heaven.

Most likely, there will be no marriage in heaven simply because there will be no need for it. When God established marriage, He did so to fill certain needs. First, He saw that Adam was in need of a companion. "The LORD God said, ?It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him"? (Genesis 2:18). Eve was the solution to the problem of Adam?s loneliness, as well as his need for a ?helper,? someone to come alongside him as his companion and go through life by his side. In heaven, however, there will be no loneliness, nor will there be any need for helpers. We will be surrounded by multitudes of believers and angels (Revelation 7:9), and all our needs will be met, including the need for companionship.

Second, God created marriage as a means of procreation and the filling of the earth with human beings. Heaven, however, will not be populated by procreation. Those who go to heaven will get there by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; they will not be created there by means of reproduction. Therefore, there is no purpose for marriage in heaven since there is no procreation or loneliness. 

From what the Bible says about it, it says there will not be marriages or those kinds of relationships in Heaven. You won't be reunited with spouses to be paired up in Heaven. Everyone will be connected like family, but not married or connected that way. So you could have multiple ex partners, it wouldn't matter. You'll know each other but that's it. It also says that old things and ways will cease and be no more, everything begins anew.

Sounds like the entry sign to the Branch Davidian compound. 

So even one's children will supposedly be like just some random person, but not their child ~ Or parent, etc.... ???

The idea that they are "your" child is a social construct. The idea that they are worthy of everyone's love to the same depth is a spiritual concept. 

So even one's children will supposedly be like just some random person, but not their child ~ Or parent, etc.... ???




Not a random person, a family member. The connection will be there. You'll know each other (supposedly) and there will be the love. After death and in the new world that is spiritual, everyone will love and be loved and God will be like everyone's Father. Family.

Spiritual beings now, under different precepts, that were once dominated by the physical world.. 

Better question:

Will Bruce Jenner be a man? Or can he dress in drag in Heaven also? 

The idea that they are "your" child is a social construct. The idea that they are worthy of everyone's love to the same depth is a spiritual concept.






Lol! In this society it IS your kid if you birth it and raise it! That's nature, not a social construct. 

My Mom was wondering this. My Dad passed away 12 years ago and she doesn't want to remarry. I wouldn't either. My Husband and I went into deep conversation about this. He asked me if i would remarry if he were to die. He felt the same way..he said I better not lol :) I believe that we won't fully know everything about Heaven until we get there. I'm sure God has kept some of the mysteries of Heaven a secret. I do know that we will still have a deep love for our spouse and see everyone the way God sees us. 

In this society

I think that's the operative word Sag. Society. 

I believe that we won't fully know until we get there. I do know that we will still have a deep love for our spouse.


You have no idea really. You may want to still have that love but you don't know that you will. 

I wouldn't either.

That's entirely your choice.

I know person's who loved another person deeply for a long time. The grief was palpable and long lasting.

A couple of years later, chance brought another person into the picture. Their level of caring is different from their former relationship. It is deep and fulfilling as far as I can tell.

I think humans are social beings and a love that only weeps is not celebrating life. 

Look, people, God isn't stupid, he'll work that out!! LOL. He knitted together the solar system, he's not going to be hindered by our stupid versions of love. LOL

We will ALL be nice, all the time. Whatchamacallit and Mr. Mark will be best buds. LOL 

I meant we won't fully know about Heaven until we experience it. I know for a fact we will still love each other and know/love our children. 

Whatchamacallit and Mr. Mark will be best buds. LOL?

Lol! 

This reminds me of the movie Over Her Dead Body .. LoL 

;) Thank you for all the good answers! Just a random thought I had today ..... And last time I had a religious / spiritual random thought, I went to visit a Rabbi, a Priest and a Pastor.... (Sounds like a start to a good joke!).... Didn't get any earth shattering answers when I went.... Just different opinions... which sufficed for that time.... And with the luxury of the internet these days, I figured I would just get some opinions / insight here instead of schlepping all around town to find 3 spiritual leaders that I could go to ask this question ..... :) Thanks again! XOXOXOX 

The bible says it's ok to remarry if your spouse passes away. Till death do you part. It's divorce that He doesn't like.
