So where do we read in the Bible that we will be eating in heaven?

A glorified body is not a superhuman corporal body.

Jesus ate after his resurrection. He is both body and spirit and those that are saved will be too.

the Bible says no one will be married in heaven & you won't be able to get married either.

Maybe because in marriage you are bound until death of yourself or your spouse. There will be no death in heaven so therefore there will be no marriage. That is not to say that there will not be physical, intimate, romantic relationships in heaven.

Not marrying. But, we'll have glorified BODIES. I doubt we'll be walking around without our genitals. What are we going to be? Smooth "down there"?? Why?

Now, how would it be done, I do not know. No marriage, so how would it exist? But, there is a lot about Heaven we do not know. Most of what we know is that it will be "perfect", which seems to be open to very subjective interpretations.

We'll have bodies... we'll enjoy sensual things like music and food and amazing sites... why would sex, the highest form of physical pleasure, be denied in Paradise of all places?

Anyway, we'll all find out soon enough.

I fully agree with your estimation.

He did, that was here on earth to prove who He was and His reality, I do not think that can be extrapolated to heaven.

Sounds like "Brave New World" (hedonism) to me not Heaven.

Matthew 22:29-30 KJV
Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
[30] For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

Immortal yet recognised,
Thats definitely Karlon
And there’s Tourist

1 Corinthians 15:49-53 KJV
And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
[50] Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
[51] Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
[52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
[53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

Hard to do that when you're screaming in pain. The Bible definitely mentions weeping and wailing.

Weeping and wailing is regret, not torture!

This is representational language of truth, or do you think there will be an actual marriage/wedding with a wedding night after the feast?

Marriage supper... fruit trees in Revelation... And Jesus ate with His disciples after the resurrection. Plus, God is going to "restore" "all things".

There is the literal and the abstract and you seem to be confusing them.

You go on about sex in heaven, and sex in general quite a bit, tell me if Jesus is the bridegroom is this a sexual relationship?
Do you see how not correctly understanding scripture has dire and very problematic implications?

No, because YOU misunderstand what I'm saying in a really bizarre way.

These are you words.

Show me the statement in scripture about eating in heaven that is not figurative language?
Let's start there
Tell me maybe I missed it.
