Re: [TruthTalk] Jonathan's Book Review (Discussion)

DAVEH:  I'd appreciate how you believe in this matter, Kevin.  Do you believe it would have been sinful for Jesus to have had children?

 

FIRST of all it was the god of Mormonism who put A&E in a strait where they must sin. This is contrary to the NATURE of the God of the Holy Bible. Therefore they can not be the same God!

 

SECOND It is just sinful to claim that he did have children. Jesus never sinned.

Here are just a few reasons Why Jesus could not marry.

 

Marriage was not disclosed as the Fathers will for the Messiah in the OT

Many OT prophets were Single so they could devote themselves to God

In Luke 9:23 Christ spoke, And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me." By BIBLICAL definition you cannot be a disciple unless you forsake all. Matthew 19:27-29 Luke 14:26-33.

HE WAS NOT AN INFIDEL

Since jesus had no place to lay His head Luke 9 "Son of man hath not where to lay his head."

He could not have a wife & Child as that is a denial of the faith.

1 Tim 5:8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

 

JESUS DID THE FATHERS WILL NOT HIS OWN

John 5:30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.

JESUS himself TAUGHT a EUNUCH LIFESTYLE (could he teach and not partake?) : MT 19 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

JESUS CARED FOR THE THINGS OF THE FATHER NOT THE THINGS of WORLD

Luke 2:49 I must be about my Father's business?

Paul said "It is good for a man not to touch a woman. �I say therefore to the UNMARRIED and widows, It is good for them if they ABIDE even as I. �But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you. � 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: but he that is MARRIED careth for the things that are of the WORLD, how he may please his wife. �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." (I Corinthians 7:1,8,28,32-33)

Jesus fulfilled this He had No entanglements  "No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 2 Timothy 2:4

HOW COULD HE HAVE A FAMILY & THEN: JESUS called people to leave their families, jobs, income, and even to sell all, give to the poor, and follow Him Matthew 4:18-22; 10:9-10; 19:21; Luke 9:57-61; 14:26-33

JESUS DID NOT BURN  Paul taught that marriage was provided "if you cannot contain," and that "it is better to marry than to burn" I Corinthians 7:2,8-9.

JESUS CHOSE THE BEST Marriage is God�s acceptable state for those who have no power over their own will in sexual matters. Getting married is doing "well," while staying single is doing "better" I Corinthians 7:37-38

DAVEH:  If that were true, then when God commanded Adam and Eve to populate the world, would the Lord have been commanding A&E to sin?

That is a good question Dave. "Command A & E to Sin?" Lets see if we can find out Be back soon.
