1 Corinthians 7: Singleness is better than marriage for kingdom service

Update - My Channel Has Been Restored! Thank you! (with Q&A) 00:24:52 – 00:26:52

Q&A on Christian celibacy and the Catholic Church sex scandal involving nuns.

Mike argues that 1 Corinthians 7 explicitly teaches that singleness is better than marriage for the sake of the kingdom of God — a point he says is rarely taught. If celibacy is devoted to serving the Lord without distraction, it is a glorious thing. However, he distinguishes this from people who mistakenly believe they are called to celibacy simply because they feel unlovable. He states 1 Corinthians 7 implies celibacy is a personal choice, not something God imposes.
