The Bible tells us, “At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven” (Matthew 22:30). This was Jesus’ answer in response to a question concerning a woman who had been married multiple times in her life – who would she be married to in heaven (Matthew 22:23-28)? Evidently, there will be no such thing as marriage in heaven. This does not mean that a husband and wife will not longer know each other in heaven. This also does not mean that a husband and wife could not still have a close relationship in heaven. What it does seem to indicate, though, is that a husband and wife will no longer be married in heaven. There is likely no purpose for marriage in heaven since there is no procreation or loneliness.

NO marriages in heaven. Jesus said that when the Pharisees were asking who a woman would be married to in heaven if she had more than one husband on Earth.

People do not marry in the kingdom. It is an institution solely for this time and life.
It may well be that there is no distinction in regards to male and female in regards to an incorruptible body.

Those that get there will be as brother and sisters. No more parents, husbands or wives. Everybody equal.
