Sexual desire comes from our fleshly state. It won't be desired in Heaven. Nothing that the flesh desires here will be a desire in Heaven. only to worship God. That's it.
But what about after that? We will have fleshy bodies again on the new earth. Grant it there won't be sin. However I am not sure if sexual desires are 100% considered a sin. After all if we are to have children on the new earth (assumption obviously) wouldn't that mean we need sexual desire?

Because without the desire our "parts" would not get ready for intercourse in order to make the children. I know I am being all theoretical and stuff lol. Either way sex at that point is something I wouldn't really be caring about.

The Bible says Heaven will consist of us glorifying and worshipping Christ for eternity. It's about Him, not us, so our fleshly needs will play no part, but we won't even have a flesh, we will be a spirit, there would be no sexual desire anyway.
Ecclesiastes 7:16 "Do not be overrighteous, neither be overwise-- why destroy yourself?" And another thing concerning sex in the resurrection; read Ecclesiastes 3:14 "I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him" If you still think that there won't be sex in the coming age then read 1st Corinthians 7:7 "I wish that all of you were as I am. But each of you has your own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that" Whether its the gift of sex or the gift of celibacy its final and for all eternity. Just read Romans 11:29 " for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable" Yes Jesus did say that in the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage. However what Jesus said concerning this matter rather more conceals rather than reveals. Apostle Paul wrote to one of the churches that we know in part and prophecy in part. One other reason I believe that there will be sex in the resurrection is simply because God revealed all this to me. The Holy Spirit revealed to me that in the resurrection instead of marriage men will have concubines. I may get kicked off this website for sharing the hope and joy God gave me but I don't care. I'm happy and I know what's waiting for me when I die.

Just pondering on this since last night. If God in the beginning created Adam and Eve to be perfect and it was to be heaven on earth before the fall, how would the human race have been created if there is going to be no sex in heaven? yet there had to of been sex in the garden of eden if we were to be created without the evil.

So in God's perfectly created world before 'sin' would God of allowed sex in the garden, yet I have been told there will be no sex in heaven. :)

1. The garden of Eden was on Earth. (Genesis 2:8-14 tells us it's rough location)

2. God told Eve that childbirth would be made much more severe because of her sin. So, I'm sure they would have had sex as is natural between a husband and a wife. God created with them with bodies created for that purpose, part of God's natural creation. In Genesis 4:1 Adam makes love to his wife but this time she conceives. I believe it is stated here that they made love so that no one jumps to the conclusion that God made other people. He made Adam but he formed Eve. God made no one else.

3. There is no sex in Heaven. We will be like the angels. No marriage to each other or sex, etc. See Matthew 22:30
