How Are Spirits Made?

[Dr. Mom]

But is this no blood thing a mystery or a misstatement? If we are to assume that human physiology continues in a perfected state, then leaving out a critical ingredient seems more a misstatement. Did someone just make this up?

Moksha-

You're missing something valuable here. HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY is just that- human. Being human means we're in a mortal state of existance in the eternal perspective of life. You can't mix human physiology with a perfected body.

If the bible is used in conjunction with with book of mormon for clarification, why does the bible state in Matthew 22:30 and in Mark 12:25 that

25Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:

26Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.

27And last of all the woman died also.

28Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven? for they all had her.

29Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.

30For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

31But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,

32I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

33And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine.

The bible states we will not remain married in heaven, therefore there will be no physical sex in heaven. Sex would be a distraction from praising God, and that is what we are to do in heaven.

Here is the LDS interpretation of that, from the Dec 1986 Ensign, "Joseph Smith and the New Testament" ( http://lds.org/portal/site/LDSOrg/menuitem..._&hideNav=1 )

"The doctrine of eternal marriage as outlined in the Doctrine and Covenants sheds light on Jesus' answer to the Sadducees concerning the final status of a woman who had been married seven times. 'In the resurrection whose wife shall she be of the seven?' they had asked. The Lord's answer, as given in Matthew, was: 'Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.' (Matt. 22:23-30.) In a revelation recorded on 12 July 1843, the Lord explained that unless a marriage is sealed by the power of the holy priesthood, the marriage ends with death. If it is sealed, however, men and women might eventually qualify for eternal lives-the everlasting continuation of the family unit. (See D&C 132:1-25.)"

Jesus only had the law of Moses to base his answer on. So denied eternal marriage based on his reading of the law. But since the law and its rules have been abolished he could contradict his mortal self and the law.
