When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of all who had been martyred for the word of God and for being faithful in their testimony. They shouted to the Lord and said, O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you judge the people who belong to this world and avenge our blood for what they have done to us? ~Revelation 6:9-10
For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have fallen asleep. We tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet him ahead of those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the Christians who have died will rise from their graves. ~I Thessalonians 4:14-16

And therefore in each of these, human nature will be brought back by the resurrection of the state of its ultimate perfection, which is the state of youth, toward which the movement of growth is terminated, and from which the movement of degeneration begins ~Thomas Aquinas A.D. 1225-1274

Then Jesus was approached by some Sadducees religious leaders who say there is no resurrection from the dead... Marriage is for people here on earth. But in the age to come, those worthy of being raised from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. And they will never die again. In this respect they will be like angels. They are children of God and children of the resurrection. ~Luke 20:34-36
W hy will there be no marriage in heaven? W hy will there be no marriage in heaven? For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. This is a profound mystery but I am talking about Christ and the church ~Ephesians 5:31-32
