For years I've mulled over the words in the Bible that we won't marry nor be given in marriage in heaven (Matthew 22:30). And I've wondered even more, now that my wife has gone on ahead of me. We've already been saved over 65 years...will we be able to hold hands, or hug, or even kiss, in Heaven?
I finally decided to just go ahead and ask God about it, and you'll be surprised as I was, that apparently all of the four types of love can be in Heaven. Maybe I should name them again, in case they've dimmed since you last saw the list. There are "Storge," which is family love; Philia, or friendship; "Agape," unconditional God love, and "Eros," romantic love. That last one is the one I've wondered about.
And so, moving along...there won't be any disappointments in Heaven. God created us, and our bodies will be as they are now, except that they'll be sanctified. The Bible is clear that we'll be with our family and friends, we'll eat and drink and live in homes He has built for us.
So what else will be involved. Reverend Billy Graham had an interesting thought in his book, "Angels." I'm quoting him as he says, "The Bible also teaches that angels are sexless. This may indicate that angels enjoy relationships that are far more thrilling and exciting than sex. The joy of sex in this life may be only a foretaste of something that believers will enjoy in Heaven which is far beyond anything man has ever known."
I'm thinking that God has a Plan that all will love and enjoy. All part of the Promise that we'll get for living for Him while here. Another reason for choosing Heaven, instead of getting what's left; the bottomless pit.
