What is the new world is like?

[whbae]

Mrs. White"s book called "Heaven" describes about new world.  I am not sure they are in real sense or figuratively speaking.  For instance, everyone enters heaven is given a golden harp and one carries around the harp on one's hand all the time to  praise the Lord any time.  This sentence means to me a burden, of course, I don't know how it is to carry around a purse in one hand for woman all day long. Then, she also mentioned that there is no birth or marriage.  This means that John and Marry, a married couple here on earth have to live separately if both are saved.  I  thought a new world is a restoration of the OLD EDEN where Adam and Eve were living together as a married couple.  I can understand there is not birth because the new world would be filled with population unlike the old Eden.   I do not believe that anyone has clear cut answers to my questions but,  I am thinking aloud to see if anyone has any kind of opinion.

Not sure that she means that we will carry it around 24/7?? I'd really have to read the passage to see the content. Could you give me the page that this is on? Thanks!

I think those that are married will definitely be together. Not sure about those that have remarried what happens to them?? I would imagine those that have remarried will go back to there first spouse?? But am not positive!!

You got that right, not sure anyone really can answer that till we get there.
