Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

(1Co 7:8) “I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. (9) But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.” Context: to burn with lusts. Why better to remain unmarried? A single person can spend more time in the Lord’s service without guilt or obligation to another. Either way, we are to serve the Lord to the best of our ability.
