Celibacy?

[Our Echelon]

man, how do i know if i'm supposed to be Celibate or not?



the Apostle paul talked about it being a gift from God.


It's a Gift man. Only those who have it will be it.

 

[FireQuest]

Yes, those who are called to live their life in celebacy will know in time as they seek God's face on this matter. However, I believe that very few are called to be celebate over the course of their lives since He wants the generations to continue to come to pass(especially Godly generations). Has Father God called you to be celebate all your life? Seek His face, friend ,and await His good answer for you. Then do as He leads! God bless you in all your ways!

 

[TheAJKMan]

One way of knowing is the next time you see a beautiful woman take note of your reaction to her and the internal dialougue. If there is any kinda sexual thought/conotation to it, you are probably not called to the celibate life. I know I am not

[JPPT1974]

l would rather be celibrate if I remained
A bachelorette for life than not celiberate
And make some huge mistakes that could
Come back and haunt me for life.

Matthew 19:12 "Only those whom God helps. Some are born eunuchs, some have been made that way by others (like in the accounts of Esther), and some choose not to marry for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven (like Paul). Let anyone who can, accept this statement."

Isaiah 56:3-5 ..."And my blessings are also for the eunuchs. They are as much mine as anyone else. For I say this to the eunuchs who keep my Sabbath days holy, who choose to do what pleases me and commit their lives to me: I will give to them, in my house, within my walls, a memorial and a name far greater than the honor they would have received by having sons and daughters. For the name I give them is an everlasting one. It will never disappear!"
