In the New Earth there could be the essence of marital relationships with the actual institution of marriage?

I would like to have informed views on sexuality in after the Resurrection. Studying Matthew 22 deeper, it appears to me that this passage says that in the resurrection we will not “get” married. Not that we won’t “be” married. Currently, men marry and women are given in marriage. possible that we won’t get married, but will be in a state of perfect oneness (a state of marriage without having to enter into covenant.)

When we get to the New Earth we will live life the way God intended when He first created the earth and all it contains, with Jesus as King and Eve completing Adam. He gave us the command to rule the earth, multiply and fill it. Scripture seems to support that we will do all that on the New Earth. Surely He did not create us with the desires we have food, drink, knowledge, wisdom, love, work, accomplishment, adventure, sex, children just for this short stay on the cursed earth, but for all eternity. And why should sex and children be the only desire he ordained in the garden, but left out of eternity?

What do you think?
 
In Matthew 22:30 Jesus says “they shall neither marry nor are given in marriage”

This is really not the least bit ambiguous, you hoping for some loophole?

Jesus answered this question to the Saducees, who asked if a man had a wife, the man died, and his brother married the wife, then this man died and another brother married the wife (and this repeated until all seven brothers had married her and died). (she Must’ve been tough on the husbands I guess, sending them all to early graves :). ).
They then asked Jesus, “Who will be her husband in Heaven, since all 7 brothers married her and had intercourse with her (though no children were born).”

Jesus.replied; "She will be wife to NONE of them. Because in Heaven people are not given in marriage and do not give (have intercourse) in marriage, because we will be like the angels who do not give (have intercourse) nor are given in marriage (have intercourse in marriage). "

It says in Revelation that satan deceived a third of the angels of Heaven and dragged them to Hell to be his demons. Then it says that the empty thrones of the angels in Heaven are to be filled with the souls of mankind. And when all those thrones are filled by human souls, then mankind will CEASE to multiply and the time for the New Jerusalem will be ready. Intercourse was only an order for the Population of the Earth from Eden up until the time that Heaven will be filled with the saved souls to take the thrones the empty third left behind.

The New Heaven and New Earth will feature complete chastity like the angels. And all the saved souls will be there.
