I think that it is a cool thought to think that our relationship to God and our fellow man will be better than a marriage/sexual relationship is here on Earth. I used to be shocked and appalled to think that there'd be no sex (implied by the thought that there would be no marriage between people) in heaven, but now I view it differently. I think we'll have an intimacy more intense and complete than sex with everyone there in heaven.
Is this based on anything Biblical? Not really.
I think it is sexy though, and it helps me out with the lust issue too.
I just think, yeah, my body is telling me that it wants to be with that person, but there is a decent chance that I'll have an even better relationship with her in due time. So, then I do not have to go on lusting.
What I am talking about is beyond sex though. Heaven will provide the culmination of all our wants... God, and it will fulfill that last unattainable want. Sex is definetly attainable so I have a feeling it will go "past" that.
This is all very new and fresh in my mind and not well tested, but I thought I'd throw it out there anyway.
What do you think?
