I was speaking carefully with them, as I had work upon them, and when they rebuked the chil-
dren who were brought to Me, I told them not to rebuke or stop them coming to Me for of such
was the kingdom of heaven, it was of those that were not lewd.
The apostle Paul answered also carefully at the beginning of My church when asked by
those that joined the clean teaching and said: «It is good for the man not to touch a woman;
nevertheless, to avoid lewdness, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have
her own husband, for they who have come together for a long time are tempted by satan for
their incontinence». But the restrained one does not want this law for he is clean. Oh, it has
been so on earth since the man’s falling. The one who cannot restrain, that one is getting mar-
ried, as when choosing between fire and marriage, marriage is better than fire. This is the law
for those who cannot restrain and are not free. My apostle sought by all means to give laws
against disorder over the churches, but he was saying: «Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek
to be loosed. Are you loosed from a wife? Do not seek a wife». And he also said: «Let they
who have wives be as though they had none, as the fashion of this world passes away». And
he also said: «He that is unmarried, is anxious for the things that belong to the Lord, how he
may please the Lord. But he that is married, is anxious for the things that are of the world,
how he may please his wife and thus he is divided». And he also said: «The unmarried woman
or the virgin is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy, both in body and in
spirit. But she that is married, is anxious for the things of the world, how she may please her
husband». And to all these he added: «I speak this for your own profit; not that I may cast a
snare upon you, as I advise you for that which is comely and decency, and that you may
attend upon the Lord without distraction; for I speak, not the Lord».
Amen, amen I say to you, sons which carry My word to the nations of the earth: I did
not tell the man to get married. The marriage, which man set among the mysteries of the
church, is not a mystery but a pain for Me, for the man gives his body up to incontinence by
marriage.
«Meats are for the belly, and the belly for meats, and God will destroy it and them.
The body is not for lewdness, but for the Lord; and the Lord is for the body». This is what My
apostle said to those who wanted to follow Me; and he also told them: «Your bodies are the
members of Christ. Do not make of your bodies and your members, the members of a harlot,
for he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her, for as the Scriptures says, the two will
be one flesh; and he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him». Amen. And also we
went on telling them: «Flee lewdness. Every sin that a man does is without the body. But he
that commits lewdness sins against his own body. Do not forget that your body is the temple
of the Holy Spirit Which is in you and Which you have from God, and you are not your own,
for you are bought with a price. Your body and your spirit are God’s; they are a house of His
glorifying». Amen.
Oh, sons joined unto Me, oh, it is hard for a teacher until he puts a whole teaching upon
the man subjected to the teaching, upon the man who starts to learn from God. Behold how
much the apostle Paul avoided it until he could tell the man to flee lewdness, which is sin inside
the man’s body, in respect to other sins which are done without his body. I did not t ell the man
to get married and those who perceived it said: «Lord it is no use for a man to get married».
And I answered them: «This is a word to be hidden, and is for those to whom it is given to
perceive it». When I was at the wedding from Cana, I made the couple one spirit with Me for
they joined onto Me and did not take the sin in them. Behold, I did not tell the man to get
