Matthew 19:12
For there are men who, from birth, were without sex: and there are some who were made so by men: and there are others who have made themselves so for the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to take it, let him take it.
1 Corinthians 7:1
Now, as to the things in your letter to me: It is good for a man to have nothing to do with a woman.

1 Corinthians 9:5
Have we no right to take about with us a Christian wife, like the rest of the Apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
1 Corinthians 7:26
In my opinion then, because of the present trouble, it is good for a man to keep as he is.
1 Corinthians 7:32
But it is my desire for you to be free from cares. The unmarried man gives his mind to the things of the Lord, how he may give pleasure to the Lord:

But because of the desires of the flesh, let every man have his wife, and every woman her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:3
Let the husband give to the wife what is right; and let the wife do the same to the husband.
1 Corinthians 7:4
The wife has not power over her body, but the husband; and in the same way the husband has not power over his body, but the wife.
1 Corinthians 7:5
Do not keep back from one another what is right, but only for a short time, and by agreement, so that you may give yourselves to prayer, and come together again; so that Satan may not get the better of you through your loss of self-control.
1 Corinthians 7:6
But this I say as my opinion, and not as an order of the Lord.

So that having every grace you are living in the hope of the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;
1 Corinthians 12:4
Now there are different qualities given to men, but the same Spirit.

And this was John's answer: A man is unable to have anything if it is not given to him from heaven.
Ephesians 4:7
But to every one of us has grace been given in the measure of the giving of Christ.
1 Timothy 4:14

Acts 26:29
And Paul said, It is my prayer to God that, in little or great measure, not only you, but all those hearing me today might be even as I am, but for these chains.
1 Corinthians 14:5

1 Corinthians 8:13
For this reason, if food is a cause of trouble to my brother, I will give up taking meat for ever, so that I may not be a cause of trouble to my brother.
1 Corinthians 10:29
Right and wrong, I say, not for you, but for the other man; for the fact that I am free is not dependent on another man's sense of right or wrong.
1 Corinthians 10:30
But if I give praise to God for the food which I take, let no man say evil of me for that reason.
1 Corinthians 14:11
But if the sense of the voice is not clear to me, I am like a man from a strange country to him who is talking, and he will be the same to me.
-----

In all things I was an example to you of how, in your lives, you are to give help to the feeble, and keep in memory the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, There is a greater blessing in giving than in getting.

So my desire is that you take me as your example.

1 Corinthians 7:10
But to the married I give orders, though not I but the Lord, that the wife may not go away from her husband
1 Corinthians 7:11
(Or if she goes away from him, let her keep unmarried, or be united to her husband again); and that the husband may not go away from his wife.
1 Corinthians 7:12
But to the rest I say, and not the Lord; If a brother has a wife who is not a Christian, and it is her desire to go on living with him, let him not go away from her.
1 Corinthians 7:13
And if a woman has a husband who is not a Christian, and it is his desire to go on living with her, let her not go away from her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:14
For the husband who has not faith is made holy through his Christian wife, and the wife who is not a Christian is made holy through the brother: if not, your children would be unholy, but now are they holy.
1 Corinthians 7:15
But if the one who is not a Christian has a desire to go away, let it be so: the brother or the sister in such a position is not forced to do one thing or the other: but it is God's pleasure that we may be at peace with one another.
1 Corinthians 7:16
