Matthew 22


"For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like the angels of God in heaven."  v.30

Read chapter 22.
A lot of people use this verse to say there's no marriage in heaven but is that really what's being said here?  We don't know how the angle's marriages work so that doesn't help us much.  When men marry it's typically a guy choosing a girl to be his wife.  When given in marriage it's usually the parents arranging a marriage for their daughter.  So could we assume that God will take over the bringing together of a man and woman that would be a perfect fit unlike our tangles marriages today from man choosing?  After all Adam and Eve were married before the fall so wouldn't the time of the resurrection in the kingdom be similar to the time before sin in the world?
