"It says in the Writings that those married will be united together while in
heaven. I was just wondering what would happen in the following situation:
One spouse dies, and the other spouse remarries. Would the spouse who had
two husbands/wives be united together with both while in heaven, given that
there was no divorce? Would the two spouses of the same gender united to
their spouse also be united to themselves? How exactly would it work?"
Dear David,
Thousands of years ago someone asked Jesus that same question and He said
there would be no giving and taking of wives in the Kingdom of Heaven. Yes,
we might well have an eternal relationship with our spouses in heaven. In
fact we are likely to have a lot of eternal relationships and things like
gender and jealousy will be non-issues because those relationships won't be
limited by physical constraints.
warmest, Susan
