From a letter written by the apostle Paul,
with Sosthenes,
to believers in Corinth and everywhere:
Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife. 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 this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not; And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away. 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. There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.-1 Corinthians 7:27-34***The Israelites descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, and Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel). While in the plains of Moab, Balaam the seer learned that blessing the Israelites was pleasing to the Lord God. Approximately 400 years after the Israelites killed Balaam, David was born into the tribe of Jacob's 4th born son Judah. Over a decade after David was born, Samuel, the priest, prophet and judge from the tribe of Jacob's 3rd born son Levi, anointed David to reign as king, according to the command of the Lord God. When David was 30 years old, he began to reign only over the tribe of Judah in the Promised Land. When David was 37 1/2 years old, he became the 2nd king to reign over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land, the land that the Lord God promised to give to Abraham, and Isaac, and to Jacob, and their descendants. David revealed that praising the name of the Lord God and magnifying the Lord God with thanksgiving is pleasing to the Lord God. Solomon was the 2nd child born to David and Bathsheba. After Solomon became the 3rd king to reign over all of the Israelites, Solomon pleased the Lord God by asking for an understanding heart to govern the Israelites and distinguish between good and bad. Over 600 years after the Lord God revealed to Isaiah the prophet that eunuchs who observe the Sabbath and choose whatsoever pleases the Lord God will be rewarded with a place in the house of the Lord God and an everlasting name, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Approximately 30 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by Mary's relative John the Baptist, from the tribe of Levi. Jesus having prayed, the heavens tearing open, the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus. The Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. Jesus fasted for 40 days and nights and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus to be the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world. In Galilee, Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites. Jesus told a group of Israelites that his Father, the Lord God in heaven, does not leave him alone because he always does what pleases his Father. Less than 3 1/2 years after Jesus was born, Jesus was betrayed, arrested, crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, and returned to heaven. The apostle Paul (Saul) was an Israelite from the tribe of Jacob's 12th and last son Benjamin. In a divinely inspired message Paul sent to believers in Corinth in ancient Greece, some cares of married and unmarried believers were described.-Genesis, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-25:18, 27:12-23, 31:1-54, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel 1:1-3:21, 8:1-31:13, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, 7:1-40, 2 Chronicles, Psalm 69, Isaiah 56:1-12, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, 6:1-8:4, 9:1-31, 11:19-28:31, 1 Corinthians
