I have a question. If our resurrected bodies are like the angels, NO gender, how can Mary be a queen?

Where do you get the notion that our risen bodies will have no gender (sex)? Jesus, after the Resurrection, was clearly a man. Mary Magdalene took him for the gardener. The disciples on the way to Emmaus recognized him as a man. (They would never have walked along talking to a strange woman!)

Jesus said that, in heaven, there will be no marrying. It is only in that sense that the risen will be "like the angels."

Right, Matt 22. No marriage. Why get married? Just took the logic for not marrying to the farthest and don’t have any reason to believe angels have gender. What happens when you are “given” in marriage?

In all the references I have read about those people who are in heaven, none refer to sex. Nations, languages, etc but not age or sex or any other details.

Galatians 3, if in regards to no longer being under the law and being neither Jew nor Greek nor male nor female, why would I be a male or female when resurrected?

We’ll see! All knowledge passes away and all things are made new. If it fits for your theology then just make sure that no one else is on that throne. It is just me and Jesus on my judgment day.
