When we are restored to our nature before the fall of man,

I believe that our estate will be better than before the fall. Both estates are innocent of sin, but in the restoration we will not want to sin and will not sin. It also seems that the familial bonds will be redefined, Adam had a wife, but Jesus says there is no marrying or giving in marriage in the resurrection. No doubt our reasoning ability will be vastly enhanced without sin and narcissistic emotional motives. We know our bodies will not see corruption and the things that were dangerous will not longer be a threat. I speculate that we will wear garments to signify the covering of the righteousness of Christ rather than be naked like in Eden. It is a mystery how developed our intellects will be and what access to knowledge will be available.

Interesting things to ponder to be sure.

I’ll admit to having a problem with my spouse not being my spouse in heaven. It she was special enough to share my experiences here with, I would want to spend eternity with her at my side.

This is simply one more question we’ll have answered in time.

I don’t fret over it.
