| 0:00.0 | Does Luke 20 versus 27 through 36 teach that people who are married on Earth won't be married |
| 0:06.4 | anymore in heaven? I feel sad that my husband and I might not be together still in heaven, |
| 0:11.9 | totally understand this. Look, I'm married now for 11 years and I get it. Like, you know, the |
| 0:23.9 | the idea of us not having our special relationship would just be like the weirdest thing. There's like a |
| 0:28.5 | the, yeah, it's just weird. That would be strange, but here's what Jesus says. There came to him |
| 0:35.2 | some Sadducees, those who deny that there's a resurrection, and they asked him this weird riddle. |
| 0:40.0 | I'll summarize it. Basically, they're like, teacher, this woman, she married seven different guys, |
| 0:44.4 | who's husband is she going to be in the afterlife? And they're trying to say that therefore there is no, |
| 0:50.9 | there is no real afterlife. Ha ha, here's a tricky question about the resurrection, and you can't |
| 0:54.9 | answer it so therefore there is no resurrection. And then Jesus answers them and says, the sons of |
| 0:59.9 | this age, Mary and are given in marriage, this age, this time we're in now, but those who were |
| 1:04.2 | considered worthy to attain to that age, that's the resurrection and to the resurrection from the |
| 1:09.6 | dead, neither Mary nor are given in marriage. That's interesting. Now, you might say, so you don't |
| 1:19.5 | marry in the afterlife or in the new, I say afterlife, but that makes you think of a disembodied |
| 1:23.6 | state. Jesus is talking about the final state, like we're all resurrected. We have a new heaven and |
| 1:27.0 | new earth revelation, the inter-revelation talks about this. He's like, in that state, you could say in |
| 1:31.3 | that state, like we're not going to have additional marriages, if you die single, you stay single, |
| 1:36.0 | but that's not the context. Jesus is actually saying this in response to which husband that she |
| 1:41.4 | did have in life, will she have in the resurrection? And he's just like, there won't be, that's a |
| 1:48.6 | non-question. There's no marriage, there's no giving in marriage. They cannot die anymore because |
| 1:53.6 | they're equal to angels and their sons of God being sons of the resurrection. Then he goes on |
| 1:58.2 | and built another really cool Old Testament, biblical case for the resurrection and the afterlife. |
