Let us rejoice and exult and give him glory, because the wedding celebration of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.
Will we all be women?
No I know, it means God will have he's people.

I don't think the scripture is talking about putting an end to sex. I think it's talking about many many things.

You know sex outside marriage is frowned on by God. It is called fornication.

1 Corinthians 6:9
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,

There is no sex (as in the act) in heaven but we will still be who we are, male and female.

the bride is metaphorical we won't be women and honestly I don't think we will have sex in heaven as that is a fleshly desire we won't have bodies of flesh in heaven we will have spiritual bodies

Something I want to note about this, is that right there means women stealers.
Not sure where you got that from. Fornication comes from the Latin "fornicati" which was used in the Vulgate to translate from the Greek "porneia". Most modern versions simply translate it as "immorality" today but essentially it is linked to idolatry as many pagan rituals involved sex.

The spiritual body is a flesh body, just not mortal flesh. Jesus had that body, and could eat and be touched etc.

I think there is marriage on the new earth
Yes, after Jesus stomps the head of Satan into the ground and defeats his armies with the sword of His mouth, there will yet remain some survivors in the earth. They will have children while those who were snatched away to meet the heavenly.believers in the air, will be having no more children.

Philippians chapter 3 at the end is a description of our bodies at that time.

BUT i DOUBT WE WILL BE HAVING SEX IN HEAVEN THOUGH


I agree because there will be
No sin in our glorified bodies.
Only marriage that will exist is to the Lamb of God. Anything different would be adultery if it were even possible. I see no reason why it would/ could be.

Seems to me that God blotting out our memories so we are not aware that are loved ones, especially children and spouses are not with us is a form of lying.
And remembering loved ones who did not qualify for heaven will not ruin heavenly joy,
because the justness of God's judgment will be fully understood,
so saints will share His grief or regret that some souls effectively chose to be destroyed in hell after justice is achieved.

It would certainly ruin my heavenly joy. In Revelations it says that there will be no more tears. There certainly would be if loved ones didn't make the cut. That goes for my pets too. Yeah, blot out my memory and pretend that they didn't exist. Lying.
