Origen says they did. But lets not have you get away with avoision just yet. Who are "they" in the Reticence of Jesus?


"They" are the dead. Which means everyone, excepting the three Nephites.
When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.

Provide the Biblical quote which shows that "they" does not refer to the Sadducees and their bretheren.

I already did, but here you go again:

When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.

Interesting that you provide no reference.

Here is Mark:
23In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

24And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

25For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

Here is Matthew:
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.

Exactly. They = the dead.

If that is so, then you should be able to quote the particular part of either of my Matthew or Mark references that shows it. Or perhaps you would venture to provide an actual reference of your own and not just something you could be paraphrasing?

But I think we both know by now your claim is dead. If you can provide an actual reference for your quote, you open up a whole new can of worms for yourself and it's also impossible to support your claim through my references. You're stuck and therefore, the Bible does not conflict with LDS doctrine on this (or any) issue.

BC:

Sure, direct quote from Mark, once more:

"When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven."

Once again, that's not a reference and it differs from the actual references from the Bible I gave.
