Learning more about Jesus & His life on Earth

Hi kids!  Are you getting ready for summer? While we wait, let me deal with a couple of questions that you have sent to me recently. So here goes...

1.  “Was Jesus married?” 
The short answer is....not! But why don’t we think that Jesus was married? Mostly because it is never claimed/mentioned nor even implied (suggested) in Bible passages, nor in other early church writings. We know that Peter and probably most of the disciples were married. We’re reasonably certain that John the Baptist was not married. We know that Paul the Apostle was not married.

I think that if we spent some time thinking about Jesus and his special mission on earth-- how important he was for us to be able to know God and to be saved, how would he ever have time to be married?!   What do you think?
