1 Corinthians 7:5-9

MNT(i) 5 Do not refuse one another, unless it is only temporary and by mutual consent, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again, lest through your lack of self-control Satan begin to tempt you to sin. 6 But what I have just said is by way of concession, not command. 7 I would that every one lived as I do; but each man has his own special gift from God, one this, another that. 8 But to the unmarried, and the widows, I say that it is well for them to remain as I am. 9 If, however, they are not exercising self-control, by all means let them marry; for marriage is better than the fever of passion.
