The unmarried priesthood

ETPH:

And not once do we see, "don't have pleasure with your wife". And not once with the command of the children is there a command on how many to have, if any.....it's just IF they have children, siding on the fact that most married people do.

So, you also discard and reject 1 Cor 7:32-33?

If not, where do you apply it?

1 Corinthians 7:32-33; 35

King James Version (KJV)

³² But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

³³ But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife....³⁵ And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.

Sincerely,

De Maria

The unmarried, focus upon the Lord

LG:

1 Timothy 3:2
King James Version (KJV)
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

So, you're pitting one verse of Scripture against another?

1 Corinthians 7:32-33

King James Version (KJV)

³² But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
³³ But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.

We accept both. Apparently, you deny and reject 1 Cor 7:32-33.

Sincerely,

De Maria
