The "context" of the question is about Marriage and how a Man and a Wife should be conducting themselves in the Marriage covenent.\n\nIt is extended out here as a reply to the deciple about even getting married or having a relatiionship.\n\nIt was the custom to make eunuches of the male childern that could be used around the palace and other important houyseholds of the leaders who took them "Captive" in battle or as Daniel was with shadrack and his buds.\n\nOthers were not born into this world with a developed desire to be married or drawn to enter into relations with anyone in particular female or otherwise just content to have some form of companionship or brotherhood family relationship.\n\nOthers again make themselves one, so as to not be encumbered by intense relationshiups so as to free themselves to consentrate on doing the work of the Lord and how they can please him alone.  Ditto for the Virgin Women till death . . .dying to self and worldly pleasure and living or letting the Lord live through them.

I'm sorry, but I can't understand what you're trying to say. Can you rephrase you question?

to say Jesus was married. would be to say that he couldn't handle the humanly temptations he had. the bible says that God will not give anyone any temptation they can not with stand. so that would say that Jesus was thinking of sinning. which is blasphemy so there you go it is a lie and a heresy to believe it.

What the hell did he say?

It means to understand that something is based on reason. Therefore words from the bible were written as known to man from words of "Jesus" and the viewpoint is not exchangeable.

cheri_da_rn: he meant carpentry!\n\nI wonder, was it before or after he got married to Mary Magdalene? You couldn't really hold it against the guy if he was already married and THEN found out that he was supposed to be the Messiah, and die on the cross, etc.

Do you notice that Jesus first tells the man that all he need do is keep the commandments?  But the man carries on, feeling that it won't be enough for some reason (even though Jesus just said it would)?  He feels he's still lacking.  Jesus tells him what he must do 'to be perfect'.  Not what he must do to gain eternal life.  I don't know about you, but, I have too many other people in my life to take care of to be 'perfect'.  Even as much as I admire Jesus.

Jesus is quoting from Psalm 82.  The exact line he's quoting is: "I said, 'You are "gods"; you are all sons of the Most High.'  But you will die like mere men; you will fall like every other ruler."  It does not mean human beings are literally gods, but that everyone who hears the word of God and takes it to heart contains the Spirit within them.

Jesus addressed this idea in John 8:\nThe teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?" ... When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground. At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."\nI think the passage speaks for itself.

To other people, sincerely say, "I'm sorry."\n\nTo God, pray saying, "I'm sorry." \n\nIf you need more help you might pray an Act of Contrition like: \n\nMy God, \nI am sorry for my sins with all my heart. \nIn choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, \nI have sinned against you, whom I should love above all things. \nI firmly intend, \nWith your help, \nTo do penance, \nTo sin no more, \nAnd to avoid whatever leads me to sin. \nJesus Christ suffered and died for us. \nIn his name, my God, have mercy. \nAmen \n\nWith love in Christ.

I think Christ meant everything He said.  The fact that we don't listen...now there's the problem.\nWhat if we LISTENED to everything Jesus said?

Answer is quite long so hope that u will read it. \nU are MISINTERPRETING Jesus' meaning in this passage since a sound rule of exegesis is to interpret scripture in light of scripture. Once this is done, we discover the true meaning of Jesus' words:\n\n"The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 'If you are the Son of God,' he said, 'throw yourself down from here. For it is written: "He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone."'\nJesus answered, 'It says: "Do not put the Lord your God to the test."'" Luke 4:9-12\n\nIn light of this passage, Jesus was not telling his followers to go around picking up snakes or drinking poison. Christ's point was that no matter what the enemy tries to do in thwarting the efforts of the believers, he will never succeed. This is based solely on the promises of Christ that his authority rests upon all true believers to accomplish his will in our lives:\n\n"'The seventy-two returned with joy and said, 'Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.' He replied, 'I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.'" Luke 10:17-20 \n\nThe Holy Bible proceeds to document how Jesus' promises in Mark 16 were fulfilled in the lives of true believers:\n\n"When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking in his own language. Utterly amazed, they asked: 'Are not all these men who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language? Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs-we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!' Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, 'What does this mean?'" Acts 2:1-12\n\n"The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon's Colonnade. No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people. Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number. As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter's shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by evil spirits, and all of them were healed." Acts 5:12-16\n\n"God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, so that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them. Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, 'In the name of Jesus, whom Paul preaches, I command you to come out.' Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. [One day] the evi

In Matthew 27:42\n\n"He saved others, but he can't save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him.\n\nThat's the closest I can find.\n\nYou probably typed in the wrong statement?
