No, sex is not a sin. There are ways to do it sinfully, but that's true of pretty much everything. On its own, It's not a sin at all. In fact, it's one of the greatest gifts we have received from God!
As for whether or not it exists in heaven? We don't know. We know that Jesus said that there will be no marriage or giving in marriage.
But that doesn't mean there's no sex.
I've heard it described this way. And I like it. When we are a child, if we wanted to imagine the greatest activity or experience we could, it would always include eating candy. Because eating candy is just the funnest and most enjoyable thing we can think of. So what couldn't be better if you add candy?
And then we become adults and we discover that there are things that are way better than having candy. And so we're not nearly as interested in it.
In other words, we want candy because we have nothing greater to compare it to. We want sex in heaven because we have nothing greater to compare it to. But if heaven is greater, if the experience of being united with God is greater than sex is, then just like a child who sets aside the candy we would be an adult who sets aside the sexual because we are fulfilled by something greater than we can imagine.
So I guess you could conclude it this way. Either there is sex in heaven, and it would be better than any we have ever had on Earth. Or there is something even greater than that in heaven, and we will be more happy and more satisfied than we have ever dreamed.

Honestly, none of us will ever know what heaven looks like (at least, no-one will live to tell the tale). Sex outside of marriage is a sin according to Catholics and since marriage ends when one of you does, the concept of the sacrament itself likely wouldn't be feasible as you're already dead to begin with in heaven, making the act of sex in heaven fundamentally sinful.
This all assumes that the rules written down are also true. I'm not too sure about other religions, but that's how it would work for the Catholics. Sorry to disappoint 😅
Sex is not a sin. Having sex outside of marriage is a sin. Having sex that isn't the opposite sex as God intended it is a sin. Doing that with a person your not legally married to while still married, even legally, is a sin. Having sex with your family members and blood related that isn't your spouse is a sin. And yes, that includes animals which is bestiality. Sex with self: masturbation and porn is also a sin.
Sex won't be in heaven. Sex is of a desire that God placed in us to be fruitful and multiply with procreation. It's suppose to worship the Lord. When you die, you won't need it because in heaven your already one and complete with the Lord. You need no food, drink, etc, because your body is new and now made perfect. It is only temperary in this life. And one shouldn't think and be perversed of it and what is of God's Holy domain.
OMG! I HOPE IT'S NOT AND THAT IT DOES!!

Sex on itself is not a sin.
In most religions (the orthodox approach at least, not the reformist ones), or at least, the most widespread religions:
- It is a sin if it is done outside of marriage
- It is a sin if it is rape
- It is a sin if it is done between 2 people of the same gender
- It is an aggravated sin if it is adultery.
Otherwise, sex (at least in my religion Islam ) is a blessing and something that is very good in a married couple.
And I don't know about other religions but fortunately sex exists in heaven.Sex itself isn't a sin. The act itself is quite neutral. So what is a sin? It's anything that pushes you away from God. Sex can do that. It can also bring you closer to God. Or have no affect at all.
So is there sex in heaven? Certainly. Some would say not, because they have the idea that everything having to do with matter and our material existence must be corrupt and an offense to God. That is patently absurd.
So what about sex does God like? It brings more people into the world, which is essential to his goals and plans, but it also is a powerful way to cement relationships and solidify loving homes. It can be used to break down relationships too, in which case God would not approve.1) No mainstream abrahamic faith has ever thought that sex was in and of itself sinful the only one that did was the Shaker sect within Christianity, and natural selection took care of them, as it would with any group that banned sex. the only thing that's ever been debated is what sexual acts are and are not permissible. While different groups have had differently sized lengths of banned acts, they've all agreed that there is in fact a right way to go about it.
2) let's say you're explaining the act of sex to a child, and they ask if you get to eat candy while you do it. of course, you say no, since one has far more enjoyable things to concern themselves with. the child then decides that they don't ever want to have sex if they can't eat candy while they do it. This is exactly the sort of position an angel would be in if you asked them if people get to have sex while they're in heaven.sex isn't a sin at all. you're just not suppoest to fuck people outside of marriage, which is interesting if you look at it sociologically.
because back when the bible was written, it was basically a scocial norm to be married if you have sex. so the earliest age you could get married back then was 13.
so then if you had sex outside of marriage, it was assumed that you're having sex with someone younger than 13... so the biblical idea of "sex outside of marriage" assumed "pedophilia". that's why it's a sin in the bible.The Bible says that Adam and Eve were ashamed of their private parts. Considering that porn hardly ever censors anything, not to mention the shameless acts happening, I think keeping in mind that people act by their own choice (as the Bible says it's God's plan) I guess the way we humans do view sex isn't necessarily the way it's viewed in Heaven. Therefore I believe that no matter how we do view it, if we've been created by birth and therefore by sex had by a man and a woman, you couldn't say it didn't exist in Heaven.
sin is quite simply anything done that isn't in faith.
But whoever has doubts is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin. (Romans 14:23, NIV)
It's an interesting subject as a person of faith in a higher power In the past I have struggled with my ''fleshly desires'' commonly thought of as bad but at the same time God given, I have settled somewhat in if it makes me feel good and doesn't directly hurt others how can it be bad in God's eyes if it isn't in my own human eye's.Sex is not a sin, depending on how and who you do it with. Sex is a gift from God believe it or not. The reason it feels so good is because it is good. There is a reason for it. However, like all things, there are certain healthy ways to do it vs. Unhealthy ways. I'm sure that unexpected pregnancies and STDs would happen less if sex happened less frequently and only with people we have been with for a while and we wanted to be with vs a one night stand lifestyle for example.

Sex outside of marriage is a sin.
St. Matthew reports Jesus saying "... in the Resurrection, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but will be as the angels in Heaven" (Matthew 22:30). With that being the case, one would have to wonder why, if someone is eternally basking in the glory of God, they would even be thinking about sex. I think that sex is not a sin, it is considered a sin only if you have sex outside your marital life. It is possible that sex exists in heaven or maybe we just ascend into higher beings beyond such earthly desires. But we can't be sure, i mean humans procreate pretty much every where.
Heaven is described in many ways, the crystal sea, the cubic city, cherifim and serifim, contains both the tree of life and the tree of knowlage, seven gates, .. But after using an entire book to attempt to explain what he saw... He admited that you will not understand untill your there
Sex isn't a sin. Religions just have rules around it so people dont act stupid and have babies indiscriminately and so disease doesn't spread and kill everyone in the village.
You won't have a body in heaven so sex won't really be an option. The good news is without your body you won't have any urges either
I am an atheist but I answered your question with my knowledge of religion from my upbringingGod created sex, it’s not a sin. Is there sex in heaven? You’d have to read the Bible on that one, I’m guessing it’s not needed. God tends to like to do the opposite of what the world does for example we value gold however in heaven the roads are made of gold which means it’s not that valuable. From that mindset sex is probably treated the same
WE ARE HARDWIRED WITH DESIRE, ATTRACTION, AND THE BODY DESIGN TO BE SEXUALLY ACTIVE. IF ITS SUCH A SIN... Y THE HELL ARE WE MADE TO DESIRE AND GAIN HEALTH BENAFITS FROM SEX.. A CAR IS DESIGNED TO BE DRIVEN, LIGHTS TO GIVE LIGHT.. WE ARE BUILT TO SURVIVE REPRODUCE AND LOVE... SO NO.. NO SIN JUST CUZ SOME EXTREMEST PRIEST DESIDED TO GET STUPID WITH RELIGION
I don't entertain the existence of gods. Who knows if there is an afterlife?
So I reject the idea that sex is a sin. Sex is natural and the fact that it is enjoyable makes it desirable.
The only thing I think is wrong is harm to others.There is no sex in heaven , or drugs, or alcohol, no women's rights, no black lives matter, sorry but all that is what will force God to end things here.
IN hell , there will be no sex, alcohol, drugs either. And some of you people are going to wish there was drugs.Sex itself is not a sin. The first commandment of God was that the humans should be "fruitful and multiply".
There won't be any sex in heaven because man will be like the angels.Heaven doesn't exist except in the fevered imaginations of those who believe in fairy tales. Grow up. When you die its all over. Lights out. Nonexistance.
Well, Sex won't be required in Heaven.
It's also mentioned that nobody will be given in Marriage to another in Heaven.
Sex is a Gift from God to us as Earthly people.
Sex is only a Sin when it's outside the parameters of His plan.Sex does not exist in heaven. Sex is a primal (animalistic) behavior, I would assume that angelic/spiritual beings don't feel the need to engage in that kind of behaviour.
