Families can be eternal. Families can be sealed together forever and that is gods purpose for all his children. here is a great link to some info.

I know that if I live the way God expects me to and try to live his commandments, and I teach my children to live righteously then we will have the blessings of being an eternal family.

Answer 2

The passage "what you bind on Earth is bound in Heaven and what you loose on Earth is loosed in Heaven," does not apply to marriage. It applies to beliefs and practices, it is a rabbinic term. If an apostle requires gathering for prayer on Sunday, as they did in the New Testament, rather than on the Sabbath, then Christians are bound in Heaven as though God himself compelled it on Earth. Likewise, the second meaning of binding and loosing is the power to bind or forgive a sin. You are mixing passages that are not meant to be mixed.

Answer 3

No.



There is no "only" in that passage.

Per your email to me:

There is no "only" in the passage you are quoting.

Matthew 22:29 Jesus answered and said to them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. 30 "For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels of God in heaven. 31 "But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."



Anyone who is part of the resurrection and hopes for heaven, Jesus makes it clear that there is no marriage in heaven.



Secondly, there are no apostolic marriages today. The apostles did not pass on their office (read Acts 12:1-4) at death, it is clear in scripture that the apostles were a limited office for the foundation of the church, not the continuance (Ephesians 2:20 "having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone")

Answer 4

The only Marriage in Heaven is the Bride of Christ;

No



Mark 12:25

For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.



Matthew 22:30

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

We are the "sons" of God.



Galatians 4:6

And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

If you will notice in Matthew 22:23-28 the Sadducees came trying to catch Jesus. They came to corner him, to put him on the spot.

The Sadducees did not belive in the resurection and here they were trying Jesus. (Much like we see unbelievers do on this site.)



"They" are the ones who have gone to heaven, the "sons" of God, the righteous. No one else will make it to heaven. We shall be glorified and be "AS" the angels. Not an angel but like them.



This does not only mean it will be just men but refers to all as sons of God, both men and women.



John 1:12

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
