Are sealings for the dead possible?

I've plagiarised this post because I think it's an interesting discussion point

Are sealings for the dead possible??? DC 132 says No new

I always heard that if you didn't get married before you died, but you were worthy, you could be sealed to a husband in the after life.

But when I read DC132, it seems like you can't:

16 Therefore, when they are out of the world they neither marry nor are given in marriage; but are appointed angels in heaven, which angels are ministering servants, to minister for those who are worthy of a far more, and an exceeding, and an eternal weight of glory.

17 For these angels did not abide my law; therefore, they cannot be enlarged, but remain separately and singly, without exaltation, in their saved condition, to all eternity; and from henceforth are not gods, but are angels of God forever and ever.

If you add that to the Bible:

Mark 12:25
25 When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.

Where do get this idea that worthy people will be sealed in heaven???

Also DC 132:15 says

15 Therefore, if a man marry him a wife in the world, and he marry her not by me nor by my word, and he covenant with her so long as he is in the world and she with him, their covenant and marriage are not of force when they are dead, and when they are out of the world; therefore, they are not bound by any law when they are out of the world.

This shows that sealing for the dead can't happen.

So how does the church harmonize these scriptures with what they teach???

If DC 132 were true, then Mother Teresa and Paul the apostle would not make it into the highest part of heaven because they died sinlge. Some ho-hum mediocre by the book Mormon couple would out rank them in heaven.

It's a comfort teaching.
