Sex is an animal response to physical stimuli for procreation
Seeing that we will be spiritual creatures, the idea of animalistic procreation won't even enter into your thoughts. We will be new creatures not driven by carnal instincts and desires.
__________________ Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
How did
"I came that you might have life, and more abundantly""
turn in to
"I can't wait to die, and go to Heaven?"
So, bb, what do you think will happen after you physically die? Will your consciousness find itself "somewhere else", even if that is perhaps not a physical location? Will that "somewhere" be better than this "somewhere"?

Well, "No one knows where they go when they die," so I don't try to guess. And "Lazarus and the rich man" tells us that the A to part II is also open...while the extremes are presented, I know we tend to think in B&W, and I think it is a bell curve. Strictly imo, there.

You don't try to guess, really? Not even about that "place" Jesus said He was going to prepare (*)? The house with many mansions? No speculation on what that really means (if it's not a real house with many mansions -- maybe "suites" is a modern word for it?)
After that part, I don't think I quite follow. A to part II? Open? Bell curve? Oh, you mean some will be at one of the extremes, but most will be somewhere in the middle? Not as many tears? Streets paved with aluminum? Nice Stetsons instead of crowns, maybe?
* And remember: if it were not so, He would have told you!
