Summary This treatise argues that the children of the resurrection contract no marriages because marriage is a mortal covenant whose own term is death, and the resurrected can no longer die (the 'for' of Luke 20:36). Families and love are not abolished; agape, which never fails, replaces the covenant that once guarded it. The Kingdom contains two orders: deathless resurrected saints and mortal nations, among whom weddings still occur (Jeremiah 33:11; Ezekiel 44:22).
