(((((Dear Sns)))))
You touched my heart!
It's really sad that the Watchtower with it's own unscriptural man-made doctrines is able to sucessfully mislead many. They discourage independent thinking, but that goes contrary to the Bible's teachings!
ACTS:17:11:" Now the latter were more noble-minded than those in Thes-sa-lo-ni'ca, for they received the word with great eagerness of mind, carefully examining the Scriptures daily as to whether these things were so."NWT Christian Love, AAF
Hi Awakened......
LUKE 20:35:"but those who have been counted worthy of gaining that system of things and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage."LUKE 20:36:" In fact, neither can they die anymore, for they are like angels, and they are God's children by being children of the resurrection."
Can you really go by those scriptures considering that Angels were so horny that one third were willing to suffer eventual death for some nookie?
If we become like the Angels will it be the horny ones?
Thanks for clarifying that! I had actually forgotten about all that! Dang! If they were all resurrected, now wouldn't *that* be a scary scenario?

I came to the same conclusion as Oracroth when the wool was removed from my eyes. The Sadduccees were asking who the woman would belong to. Jesus said that she would not belong to any of her previous husbands. They would be like the angels, having only Jehovah as their head. At the time of ressurrection they would not be given in marriage to anyone. They did not ask about future prospects of marriage only about their narrow minded trick question.
By the way this brings up the question about where Jesus' audience thought the woman was to be resurrected?

AAF,
Yes, once again the Watchtower is proven wrong and does not understand scripture as you show.
There are only two ways to enter this new system which additional texts will verify. One is to be resurrected. The other is to be changed. In both cases the resurrected or changed person will still be human but will put on immortality as our present mortal bodies cannot inherit this new system as you call it. The fantasy that some will simply walk in by surviving a great holocoust improperly called Armageddon is simply another Watchtower lie.

Doesnt the wedding vows state, until death do us part, which clinches it for me....
They are at liberty to meet the bridegroom - neither married (to another husband - a word who is head of the house) or pledged to be married (mind made up - even studying perhaps?).
Either virgins (maidens), 'widows' perhaps, or like the Samaritan woman, they have no husband like they did before - words that were unchaste, or that are simply dead. The woman answered him, "I have no husband."
In their question, the example the Sadduccees used was that the husbands (and note also that they were brothers) were indeed dead.
God is the God chosen by the living, not by the dead.
I can just imagine Jesus smiling and saying, 'Are you following me?'
No because if brothers and sisters marry thats incest.
Well picked up Barry
