*1 Tim 4:1-3 ~ Now the Spirit manifestly saith, that in the last times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to spirits of error, and doctrines of devils, 1 Tim 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy, and having their conscience seared, 1 Tim 4:3 Forbidding to marry, to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by the faithful, and by them that have known the truth.

Eph 5:21-33 ~ Being subject one to another, in the fear of Christ. Eph 5:22 Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord: Eph 5:23 Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of his body. Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be to their husbands in all things. Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church, and delivered himself up for it: Eph 5:26 That he might sanctify it, cleansing it by the laver of water in the word of life: Eph 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any; such thing; but that it should be holy, and without blemish. Eph 5:28 So also ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself. Eph 5:29 For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church: Eph 5:30 Because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. Eph 5:31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh. Eph 5:32 This is a great sacrament; but I speak in Christ and in the church. Eph 5:33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.

Mt 19:12 ~ For there are eunuchs, who were born so from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, who were made so by men: and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven. He that can take, let him take it.

Jer 16:1-4 ~ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: Jer 16:2 Thou shalt not take thee a wife, neither shalt thou have thee sons and daughters in this place. Jer 16:3 For thus saith the Lord concerning the sons and daughters, that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bore them: and concerning their fathers, of whom they were born in this land: Jer 16:4 They shall die by the death of grievous illnesses: they shall not be lamented, and they shall not be buried, they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth: and they shall be consumed with the sword, and with famine: and their carcasses shall be meat for the fowls of the air, and for the beasts of the earth.

1 Cor 7:8 ~ But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.

1 Cor 7:32-35 ~ But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God. 1 Cor 7:33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided. 1 Cor 7:34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband. 1 Cor 7:35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.

1 Tim 5:9-12 ~ Let a widow be chosen of no less than threescore years of age, who hath been the wife of one husband. 1 Tim 5:10 Having testimony for her good works, if she have brought up children, if she have received to harbour, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have ministered to them that suffer tribulation, if she have diligently followed every good work. 1 Tim 5:11 But the younger widows avoid. For when they have grown wanton in Christ, they will marry: 1 Tim 5:12 Having damnation, because they have made void their first faith.
