| David Jay Jordan's Who's married to 'Who' in Heaven Down here on Earth, we are always wondering who will be married to who once we get to heaven, but doesn't the Lord say we are all going to be married to Him, then. Isa 54:5 For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. And if we are all together His Bride, the Bride of Christ, then aren't we also married to each other, because we are One. So that's surely who we married to in Heaven, Jesus .... It's straight forward and simpleif we love Him as our first love. And yet the scribes and pharisees tried to trap the Lord with their tricky questioning about this very subject. They asked who a widowed woman would be wed to in heaven when she had been married seven times and been widowed seven times and the Lord replied Luke 20:34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage: Luke 20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: Pretty strong words from the Lord Right, saying we aren't married to each other in heaven, but like the angels, we shall be married to Him and His Service there. For we shall all be One and not two or three or millions but ONE in heart and spirit. John 17: 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. Jhn 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: Jhn 17:23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be madeperfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me And so who can be married to the Lord in heaven, anyone whether married or single own here Right ?. Marriage here can teach you, how to love Him better there, but isn't necessary ? he doesn't seem to differentiate His bride according to their age or marital status down here. He doesn't seem to care if they have been divorced seven times from their worldly husbands or been widowed seven times from different husbands as long as they turned to him with all their hearts and souls. Right ? And yet in this present church world, if people aren't married they are looked down upon as being a little less Christian than those that are married. Singles are accepted but not equal with the married congregation members even though Paul seemed to favour the enuchs and those that weren't aligned with other realationships..Because Paul, figured all should be as he is, single and dedicated strictly to his husband the LORD. He had only one person to please and yet the church says, our worldly marriages are equal and even above our marriage to the Lord. But how many of them were truly put together for the Lord and secondary to the Lord, and in service to the Lord. Very few …Right ? So surely there is neither married nor single in the eyes of the Lord, just as there is neither male nor female in the Lord. Nobody can justifiably put anyone else down just because they are NOT married here on earth. For whether they are single or divorced or young or inexperienced, or oriented differently from the majority, or for whatever reason, doesn't everything depend ONLY on our hearts and NOT on our so-called status with others.. And basically, doesn't only the Lord know our hearts. Therefore shouldn't we watch out how we treat the widows, and the divorced and the singles, and all the other so called least of the Lord's brethren. For shouldn't we be treating them with the respect in equality that they deserve, because we don't want to judge or condemn or falsely accuse one of the Lord's wives do we ? The bridegroom might not be to pleased with us, Right ? In My Opinion David |
