Is there sex in Heaven?

• Wishful Thinking

Christianity Today's website makes a touching attempt at being reassuring.

Of course. Sex is part of our divinely designed humanity. It is transformed, not removed, in Heaven. We will be "like the angels" in "neither marrying nor being given in marriage," according to Christ's answer to the Sadducees (Matt. 22:30), but not in being neutered. Sex is first of all something we are, not something we do. I do not think we will be "doing" copulation in Heaven, but we will be busy being ourselves, and that includes being men and women, not genderless geldings.

What Will Heaven Be Like?

well,well well.I think that there is sex in heaven,what do you think?it may sound like an abomination.sex from my own perspective is not only a communion of two flesh,but also of two souls.sex is phenomenon that transends the physical into the spiritual establishing a bond that is stronger than any chemical bond.it is more spiritual than physical,despite it gives an impression that some physical needs are satisfied.In heaven we are the bride,and christ is the groom.such a relationship is what exist between we and him,which is compariable to a man and his wife.despite there will be no physical union between,but some spiritual communion will be experience which will be same as the satisfaction derived from physical sex but in a higher dimension.No marriage is complete without sex,so since we are married to christ there must be such a communion.

assigning physical traits (sex) to what may be called a soul... i can only say that it seeps with an alterior motive.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Is there sex in Heaven?. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
