Bible Question: Paul also said that if any man be contentious we have no such custom, and also Paul also said he would that all men would be as him "single and not married" so on that note may you should not be married either, and since I don't know you; you might be keeping that commandment, however I choose not to keep that commandment but choose to be a married man, and that's not a sin just like long hair will not sent me to hell, and if your going to judge me Because I have long hare, all I can say is I'm really glad your not GOD, and if God has chosen to put his wonderful holy spirit on me and bless me with such wonderful piece of mind with the knowledge that when I Kick the bucket I'll have eternal life, OH! but wait a minute, maybe God should check with people like you first to get permission for me to be blessed in that manner. |
Bible Answer: Roots, Note, what Paul spoke of being like him was not a commandment. 1 Corinthians 7:6-9 (NASB) 7:6 But this I say by way of concession, not of command. 7:7 Yet I wish that all men were even as I myself am. However, each man has his own gift from God, one in this manner, and another in that. 7:8 But I say to the unmarried and to widows that it is good for them if they remain even as I. 7:9 But if they do not have self-control, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn with passion. But it could be that statements such as this "OH! but wait a minute, maybe God should check with people like you first to get permission for me to be blessed in that manner." would be considered contentious and would seem to me 1 Corinthians 11:17 would be applicable! 1 Corinthians 11:17 (NASB) But in giving this instruction, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.
