No. We don't know that at all.
EVERYTHING we do will be about worshipping and glorifying God. Doesn't mean we will sit around all day singing praises, just that EVERYTHING we do will be by His Will. Doing His Will IS worship.
AS for sex in heaven? I don't know. It seems unlikely to me. Since there is NO marriage in Heaven, you'd have to believe God is cool with going around and having sex with everyone.
Also, it's unlikely we would even have a sex drive at all. since that is God ordained and designed for procreation.
But no eye has seen, nor mind imagined what God has prepared for us. I'm thinking it probably isn't sex, but something MUCH better.
Actually, scripture commands us not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers. Incest is physical, not spiritual. Scripture is also clear that there is no marriage in heaven. Remember, biblical marriage is the physical act not a ceremony.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.
Mankind is the pinnacle of God's creation...and created to do two tasks: live and work. (Gardening and subsequently farming)
And now we get to add another element to the real world of Heaven which is timelessness. (As opposed to this temporary world scheduled for demolition)
Much like there is a huge difference between a line of code in a computer and human beings so is the difference going to be between our lives in heaven versus what we live in here.
There will be perfect efficiency in Heaven....meaning that there never will be any waste. (No toilets or sewer or handwashing)
A new world...completely different set of rules. So don't get caught up in designated professions or tasks for when you get there.

you can always try hell and see if that's better LOL. maybe there will be sex parties there.
I noticed you had been away for a while.Is that why I hadn't seen you around?
open threads started by JohnB; for I have realized that no matter what the thread is titled it will always somehow end up being about sex
I don't even know how I ended up in this one
You would think that at his age he could find something better to do....

Something that was not NSFW.
Jesus said there was no marriage in heaven, he didn't say there was no sex. GOD created sex and so many of you want to ban it in heaven. You have a very narrow view of what heaven will be like.
Nothing in the bible says they don't procreate. That is something man has made up. Genesis 6 says the Sons of God were attracted to the daughter of MEN....it's not the daughters of Seth, it's the daughters of men.
JohnB is completely obsessed with sex; it's all he thinks about. He's never going to change; if people are sick of his sex, sex, sex all the time, in his mind it's their problem not his.
My only question is how long is this going to be allowed to continue. What's the spiritual benefit from it? How does sex in heaven or whether Adam and Eve had sex before the fall contribute to anyone having a closer walk with Christ? When does it stop being a subject of Biblical relevancy and become perverted and inappropriate?

You completely neglected the points about how sex would even operate.
Since there is NO marriage, are you saying God would allow/arrange for you to have sexual intercourse with potentially millions of different people? You actually think this is what Heaven will be like? One big orgy?
Ya know, there is ANOTHER religion that tells it's adherents that 72 virgins await them in Heaven.
Or would you have ONE person, that wouldn't be called your wife, but maybe Heavenly significant other/domestic partner?
It's foolishness John.
Why would they have sex outside of marriage then? And with who?
Lets try this AGAIN, there is no marriage in heaven. Jesus said there is no marriage, he did not say there is no sex. You and others are the ones putting in that restriction.
Have you been to heaven? Again, you're applying laws meant for the earth to what happens in heaven, a place you have never seen or been to.
John, the Scriptures make it clear that sex outside of marriage is sin... does it not?
So where are you going with this?
it's about Earth.
nowhere in that Scroll is Heaven mentioned in relationship to human pleasure.
Your THREAD, the TITLE, you created, is about HEAVEN. and the argument you present is [[ONLY]] about Earth.
where in the world did you ever think God adopts things on Earth for His Heavenly Kingdom?
in fact, that is literally the very opposite and backwards thinking of literal Reality.
get over it, no "SEX" in Heaven!
