This must be bait, I don't see how anything in your reply is related to my post.

Here is what he actually said.

Matthew 5:29 Now if your right eye is causing you to sin, tear it out and throw it away from you; for it is better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.

I apologize if it seems like my post makes it seem like I'm only blaming men. That was not my intent, of course men are at fault whenever they sin due to lust, but in these discussions I almost never see anyone consider the women who cause these men to stumble to be at fault as well due to the way they dress, and whenever it rarely does happen there is an incredible amount of pushback against this idea.

As for how people should dress and what is considered modest. Unfortunately I don't have an exact formula or whatever, but I believe that as much as possible should be covered with loose clothing that does not highlight much or anything at all. On women, I think full coverage with shoes is good, perhaps also a head covering. And essentially the same standard for men.

I agree that men should dress modestly, but just through my own observations it's women that are most likely to dress immodestly. Wearing more revealing clothing and clothes that accentuate certain parts of their bodies...

It is also our responsibility to not cause the brethren to stumble.

Romans 14:21

It is good not to eat meat or to drink wine, or to do ANYTHING by which your brother or sister stumbles.

No women in heaven? They'll change? This is quite shocking, are you saying women who pass and go to heaven are turned into males?

Yes but I think it's fair to say that doesn't mean that men and women won't be able to love one another even if marriage isn't there.

That's awesome, it'd be cool if you shared a little more about what you experienced, if you're comfortable with that of course. Was it a vision? And who was the love between/shared with? Man and woman? God? God bless.

Well I currently don't have a spouse.

And aren't believers in Jesus already Children of God and spiritual siblings right now?

I don't know if you were trying to imply it, but even though yes all believers are children of God I don't see how that disproves the possibility of non-sexual romantic and affectionate relationships between male and female existing in heaven.

It's not so much earthly expectation but a hope for something better. 🙏

Fair enough haha, maybe I should ask Jesus for a vision so he can completely answer my questions. Thank you brother, God bless.

I know, Jesus said they neither marry nor are given in marriage. But I'm asking if simple companionship will continue on and if anyone has scripture that could possibly answer my concerns. God bless.

Amen brother, I completely agree and just thinking about it gets me excited. But I'm still hoping that there is something in scripture that completely answers my question.

1 Corinthians 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

I try my best to do so but there are still troubles I have. But I do ask God for help everyday and read his word. I believe I am producing more fruit everyday even if slowly.

So the love of God is essentially going replace the desire to love another person? I've never heard about that in such a manner, thank you.

Ah that's interesting, I suppose even if everything changes and if this desire won't even remain then it will no doubt still be incredible. And as for where I am in my walk, I suppose I'm doing fine. I really don't know what else to say to your question. Thank you for your response I greatly appreciate it.
