In LDS Doctrine one does not have to be married to reach the Celestial Kingdom.

Please explain...or is the word "sealed" another definition, or substitute for "married" in LDS doctrine?

[Rameumptom]

Sealing is a more general term that includes marraige but also can cover other priesthood ordinances. Sealing in the Bible was a power given to the Apostles that what they sealed on earth would be sealed in heaven.

Marriage on the other hand can be done with the sealing power. When it is done in the temple is called the "new and everlasting covenant of marriage". When it comes to marraige in the temple, "sealing" and "marraige" are used interchangeably in lay terms (even by Mormons) but there are some differences in how the terms should be used technically.
