Hey, Friend!

Exactly. There is absolutely no logical or biblical reason.

> "When you look at how vast the universe is, it seems to me that it might be God's intent that we go and fill it, and that probably requires more than those redeemed humans from this life who enter the resurrection."

Have you never wondered what we'll be doing for *eternity*?🤔 And, even if the current population of our planet were all redeemed, there are far too few of us! We must expand in order to subdue the rest of the universe.

I understand your discomfort; but, have you read my article?😯

Our endless future will NOT be "without marriage!" It will, according to scripture, be WITH and IN the ultimate, complete, *fulfilled* state of marriage... The TRUE marriage that God, from day one, intended all of our earthly marriages to be a model and a foretaste of.

I really appreciate your open and thoughtful discussion. As heirs and followers of King Jesus, our future is blindingly bright in every possible way.😃🚀😄💜🫂💖😆👍
