DO YOU BELIEVE THAT IT IS GOD'S WILL FOR ALL MEN/WOMEN WHO DESIRE TO BE MARRIED TO MARRY?? SEEING THAT WE LIVE IN A FALLEN WORLD WERE THE WOMEN OUT NUMBER THE MEN HERE IN AMERICA AND BIGOMY IS AGAINST THE LAW... HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS ESPECIALLY WHEN THE MAJORITY OF MEN/WOMEN HAVE CERTAIN INNATE AND LEARNED URGES BEFORE COMING TO CHRIST?

It's optional.....1Cr 7:7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.1Cr 7:8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I...1Cr 7:9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn...
thanks sister
I have often wondered about this. I used to think that when Genesis records, "And for this reason shall a man join himself to a wife" that this was almost a command, but then the Apostle Paul says, "It is not good for a man to touch a woman," or get married so I really don't know. I kind of feel that when God gives you a desire that is not contrary to His stated will He will make a way but I have been waiting for like 34 years so I don't know. I have prayed about this and have yet to receive an answer unless no answer is an answer. Further, let me dispel the notion that it is the men who choose their wife. It is not. If the woman refuses the man nothing can impel  her otherwise and God will not abrogate her free will.
I brought this topic up mainly my brother because I believe that there are those who should not marry. I feel like people who don't want to be married are sometimes stigmatized. Some of these people who have no desire to marry are more in touch with themselves than those who desire to marry. Marriage is a gift from God just like being single. The problem comes when a brother/sister doesn't realize this and marry anyway with disastrous effects. By the way, I met a man yesterday who was an official at a little league game. He was married  in December at the age of seventy. So there is still hope for old timers like you and me. lol
