  • 1 Cor 7:25-34 : 25 Now concerning virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give my opinion as one who, by the Lord’s mercy, is trustworthy. 26 Because of the present distress, I think it is good for a person to remain as they are. 27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek a wife. 28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Yet those who marry will face troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this. 29 This is what I mean, brothers and sisters: The time is short. From now on, those who have wives should live as if they do not. 30 Those who weep, as if they did not weep; those who rejoice, as if they did not rejoice; those who buy, as if they did not possess. 31 And those who use the things of this world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away. 32 I want you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord’s affairs—how he can please the Lord. 33 But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife. 34 And his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs. Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world—how she can please her husband.
