The marriage season is here! From now through June ‘love is in the air’, as the song goes, and most if not all of us will know someone who’s getting married sometime soon. Share with your Mormon friends that indeed, God does sanction and bless marriages between a man and a woman. Marriage, however, doesn’t carry on into the hereafter. When we get to heaven, we’ll be there worshiping Jesus, not our spouse! The ‘families are forever’ plan is absolutely unbiblical to its very core. Jesus said you can’t worship two masters (Matt. 6:24), furthermore, God said He is the only God in Isaiah 43:10-11. The entire reason for marriages in heaven is for the husband to become a god, and the wife to become a goddess. According to the 2 passages cited here, how will the ‘families are forever’ plan work?
