the Lord tell us, not to desire the things of this world. To put your eyes on spiritual things..........


why do you all have wifes or husbands? For you all know that it is a fleshly desire, and it is not spiritual and not in heaven.
I mean you do not even care about him or her when you get to heaven....you just want to get to heaven......not even thinking about tresures.

Why are you asking such nonsensical questions? There is nothing material in loving your spouse. The bible says that men should love their wives as Christ loves the church.

A Christian lady visited the prisoner who senselessly killed her husband with forgiveness. She gave the guy a bible. He grow to be so crushed that he became to Christ and later became a pastor, purely previous to the Dec twenty 6th 2004 huge ocean tidal wave that took out 11 coastal international locations, some Buddhists had burned down 24 Christian church homes, After the devastation those Christians went around helping those Buddhists to their entire marvel. Do Atheist mothers and dads tell their toddlers to no longer cry while somebody dies because of the fact they could be crying over soulless maggot nutrition (in accordance to their ideals)? If no longer, that is hypocritical.

Well for you maybe for christians God is talking true.

For believers Jesus make difference between the flesh and the spirit. And for us, when we go to heaven we do not have flesh either, so even if someone wants something psychical in heaven nobody can.

That does not mean a human being does not fell sexual attraction, that means that it can be controlled, like everybody using clothes or choosing a moment to make sex, for example. Even without sex, that does not mean you are not a human beign. We are not our sex, we have more things to do or think about.

There are indeed christians thinking along the same lines you do and they do indeed not get married -apostel Paul meantions these kind of christians too. These days some of those people decide to be living as monks.
The others (should) put god as their FIRST love, meaning if their wife would want to seperate them from god they would leave their wife.
Thats why god wants christians to get married to other christians so that nothing interferes with that first love and they still as a couple can become one flesh.

If it's so fleshly, why does Paul recommend that a preacher have a wife?

God said to make families and fill the earth with people.

What about people who are not saved and have families and later believe? Shoul they leave their families?

I think you are the fleshly one.

We are supose to love for God is love. Marriage isn't just about sex. It is about love. The family arrangement was instituted by God. HOw do you know but what people will live on this earth as Jesus said, "the meek will inherit the earth"
Here we will have fleshly desires. Many old couples who live together stop having sex but they always love.

In the first 3 chapters of Genesis, God gives the newly created man two gifts: marriage and the Sabbath. Would you say that one is earthly and one spiritual, both earthly, both spiritual, or both? Secondly, when man sinned, did God say He was gonna take one of those gifts away?

Solomon says, "rejoice with the wife of thy youth." Proverbs 5:18

Try grammar and spell check, maybe then you can get this to make some sense.

Matthew 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Doesn't sound like God is suggesting that we are not to marry.
Our Bodies are the Temple of the Holy Spirit, it is within that we store up future treasure.

Getting married is actually biblical.. Check your bible and you ought to care if your family goes to heaven because (1) you love them (2) you are accountable for them.
What makes you think we just don't care about our family going to heaven? Why should we have bible studies and fellowships if we don't care for them... I think you have to see the 2 sides of the coin before you judge..And heaven is a treasure... and I don't think we have the right to question God's commands...

First, check your grammar on this question. It sucks. It hurts to read it, because it makes me want to throw up. Secondly, your question is totally nonsense. You are allowed to love people as a Christian. Nowhere does it say that people have to give up their love of other people to get to Heaven. In fact, God says to love one another.
