Nobody is saying marriage is forbidden bac.
But its not a good idea to be unequally yoked either. Many women are saved after they marry and have children for the childrens sake, its not really the mother that Gods priorty but her child because the young child depends on her, especially if the unbelieving dad has left.
I have seem that happen with many women.
Bac you have a tendency to take many scriptures out of context and not look at what they really talking about.
Men are the ones that, if they are to take a wife, need to marry her i.e stick with her faithfully till either dies. Its not saying dont do this. Marriage is a covenant. Many people just live together or fornicate until they split up.,,that isnt marriage.
Paul also said married women will have trouble in the flesh..but he wil spare us (the gory details). In corinthians letter.
In timothys letter Paul was talking of women who are married, that are saved in childbearing. Hes not saying single women are saved in childbearing. Cos single woman cant bear children if they dont have a husband, can they. And they dont need to be subject to their husbands. But if they are married, they do. Paul also tells them to show good works not show off how rich they are with gold and pearls.
This is the same Paul who wrote to the corinthians on how it was good to be single and women were happier if they were left that way!
Ok will shut up now. Just remember, not every christian is married. Not because they are forbidden to, but because they want to please the Lord without distraction. Jesus never married. Neither was Paul. God knows why!
