There's this guy from the Alliance Hmong church asked me if I ever gonna get married. All I did was shrug my shoulders - meaning I'm not sure and I'm not planning to. After that, he went on persuading me that I should be like my oldest brother when he got a wife and children. Well, he doesn't know what the heck I've gone through a lot of relationSHITS with girls' BS.
Marriage ain't the true calling for me. He surely doesn't have the common sense of what scriptures in the Bible say about marriage law and its consequence. There's no point in arguing about the subject. Plus there's no point convincing him he's in the wrong position causing me to sin. For instance, a type of "sin" indicate whenever my spouse goes on an adulterous spree while I stay home not knowing she has an affair with other men. So if I decide to divorce her on my own terms (feeling resentment toward her infidelity) and I go find another wife. Then that means I've sinned adultery, right? No matter what I say to that egghead, he won't deny he's an idiot even though he claiming he's a full-fledged Christian.
Here are the passages that idiot forgot to go back and check upon:
1 Corintians 7-117 Sometimes I wish everyone were single like me—a simpler life in many ways! But celibacy is not for everyone any more than marriage is. God gives the gift of the single life to some, the gift of the married life to others.
8-9 I do, though, tell the unmarried and widows that singleness might well be the best thing for them, as it has been for me. But if they can’t manage their desires and emotions, they should by all means go ahead and get married. The difficulties of marriage are preferable by far to a sexually tortured life as a single.
10-11 And if you are married, stay married. This is the Master’s command, not mine. If a wife should leave her husband, she must either remain single or else come back and make things right with him. And a husband has no right to get rid of his wife.
Matthew 19:11-1211 But Jesus said, "Not everyone is mature enough to live a married life. It requires a certain aptitude and grace. Marriage isn't for everyone.
12 Some, from birth seemingly, never give marriage a thought. Others never get asked - or accepted. And some decide not to get married for kingdom reasons. But if you're capable of growing into the largeness of marriage, do it."
