Jesus Was Never Married. Why Don't Christians Emulate That? by chakula: 1:30pm On Sep 28, 2011
Why Christians Don’t Live Up To That Part As Well?

A respect and obedient  follower has to do with his master’s culture as well as espousal  teachings in which the master had laid it down and instructed those behind him to based their lives upon, my point here is Jesus never marry up to today, why Christians don’t live up to that part as well? I intend not to ersatz or detriment one’s belief just for the seeks of knowledge.

Which christians are you referring to?

Did Jesus ask people not to marry?

He attended many weddings himself, maybe you're unaware of that.

Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene. The anointing in with oil at Bethany was the first phase of his traditonal marriage to magdalene and wedding at Cana ,where Jesus was said to have turned wine into water, was second and final phase of their traditional wedding. Read those passages carefully with your eyes open, then ask any person who understand Jewish culture to confirm. The editors of of the Bible , having crowned him son god, went ahead removed all references to his education, his sojourn to Egypt, India, and Tibete; all in an attempt to rob him of his mortality and give him a god-like stature.

Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding

john 2:1


does the bridegroom also receive an invitation to his own wedding?

All christians without any exception should not marry in following the true Jesu ways and pattern of Jesus their master.

that is the right thing to do. otherwise all of you are darn hypocrite and the reason Jesus will to all of you ''get away from me, i do not know thee".


this will be a natural and quick end to evil way.

And don't blame the rest of us Christians who don't emulate Jesus. Afterall, you Muslims don't emulate Mohammed in marrying 9yr old girls. Or do you?

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-53711.0.html

[Quote]Well, Catholic clergies don't marry.

But of course you know this position of theirs is only a facade, a lie that they live. So much private sex is going on in the behind the convent. You as a Nigerian male should know that. The freakiest people is a toss up between them and the nurses [sorry nurses] and of course the doctors who can't help themselves.

Or do you?[/Quote]While you are not able to provide substantial evidence about this considering that Marriage is responsibility and Islam states that personal responsibility begins at the time of puberty, you will have to admit that even 9 years old is much younger than the 15 years the age the Islamic scholars states that puberty may begin in most people.

finally, considering that i am a heathen and an infidel [read Timothy, you will see the word infidel], you a believer in Trinity stating Jesus is your Lord God should not be taking the same position with Jesus as I take with a prophet [as] that you don't believe in. If you do, you are worse than a hypocrite in my eyes. you should abandon christianity if this is your attitude and quick lip servicing your trinitarian gods.

I don't know what is causing this long story. You were looking for people who emulate Jesus. Catholic clergies don't marry. Now you are hurling other insults on them.

Why do you try to remove the splinter in your brother's eye when you have beam in yours. I don't condemn muslims because I know that no matter how many of them are barbaric murderers, it cannot be all of them. Recently in Saudi Arabia, a woman was sentenced to 10 lashes of the cane for driving but do I condemn muslims for these, no. My friends and family in the north cannot go to church on Sunday because they are scared of being blown to pieces and you are here discrediting Christians for not emulating Jesus' marital status; the ones who are, you questioning their sexual status.

Muslims are dying in Somalia as a result of drought, Christians are trying to go in and help and islamic militants are not letting them in. They'd rather their fellow muslims died like animals. And you are here bashing christianity.

Why don't you look inward before pointing fingers?

Curiously, the bible does not mention the names of the celebrants of the wedding. That is very uncharacteristic of the bible, wouldn't you say so? Also, why would the son of a lowly carpenter and is mother, along with his desciples, be invited to a society wedding as described in the bible? And also, being invitees, why would jesus's mother be very active in such a wedding, unless, she was just playing her natural role as the mother of the groom?

It wasn't in the bible and, the Op have just said it because there is no noticeable respond that can outfit the question. And those raised question design by globexl also needs to be answer as well. But would they come up with reasonable answers? That is what I doubt.

are you alright? Why are u such a daft? Was that the question d op asked u? Stupidity is not God's plan for your life.
@op... Christ has a ministry that requires him leaving a celibate life, and he never condemned marriage.

Most people are tempted to forget that Jesus came to settle the rift between the hateful world and his loving Father and to bring depraved humanity back to God, his Father. Jesus meant business. . .hehe! and he would not be persuaded nor would he compromise his one and only global commission.#attkir

It is not uncharacteristic of the Bible not to ascribe names. This scripture is not the only one where names are not given in the Bible. The Groom and Bride were not important in this account ... it was Christ's turning of the water into wine (his first public miracle) that was the main focus of this account.

[b]John 2:1-10 - King James Version (KJV)
1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of JESUS was there:
2 And both JESUS was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
7 JESUS saith unto THEM, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
8 And HE saith unto THEM, Draw out now, and bear unto THE GOVERNOR OF THE FEAST. And THEY bare it.
9 When THE RULER OF THE FEAST had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knewwink the governor of the feast called the BRIDEGROOM,
10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. [/b]

Nothing in the scripture points to Jesus as the Bridegroom ....... only your 'suspicious' mind playing tricks on you cheesy cheesy

kip laffing at yourself, the holyspirit has been freely given to sustain them throughout their ministry, just as christ who came in human form and was never married.

A sincere respond from a good Christian, it was only priests that agreed upon what Jesus teaching is all about, but others would likely not obedient to him for practicing what he has never practice in his life time.
