MARRIAGE AND SINGLENESS - BOOK OF ACTS LESSon #7


Sermon Notes

Date of Sermon:    March 10, 2013

Main Idea:      Marriage and singleness are both gifts from a loving God
  
Key Verse:     “I wish that all were as I myself am. But each has his own gift from God, one of one kind and one of another."    1 Corinthians 7:7

Bible Reading:     1 Now concerning the matters about which you wrote: "It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman." 2 But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband. 3 The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 5 Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6 Now as a concession, not a command, I say this. 7 I wish that all were as I myself am. But each has his own gift from God, one of one kind and one of another. 8 To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single, as I am. 9 But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
