NO. Jesus was still man and He of course didn't like pain, but in the end He would WILLINGLY do His Father's will. Jesus could have summoned a league of a 1000 angels and could have gone to heaven right then, but He loved us and wanted us to have a way to get to heaven. Jesus came down to save us, because it was His Father's will.

Ah, I see you had David in mind as the purest.  I was thinking, Adam, inasmuch as, before he sinned, he was the purest man.  Scriptures indicate that Joseph overcame this temptation for two primary reasons:  he understood the principle which led to the law that came later (the law against adultery/fornication) and he understood and put into action the need to IMMEDIATELY flee from fornication.  David failed in this respect.  Instead, he allowed desire for Bathsheba to grow and take root in his heart.  Jeremiah says the heart is more treacherous than anything else and is desperate.  David's heart became desperate and led to his greed (desire out of control).  [A shame, really.  If David was feeling a little, shall we say, anxious, he already had a few wives who could have satisfied his desire.]  Joseph fled the scene before such a thing could develop in his heart.

Jesus actually ran his own escort service out of Nazareth and his twelve disciples were actually his posse of prostitutes that were rented out to King Herod's bi-sexual henchmen.\n\nJesus was gay, but celibate. True story.

1st, none of us were there. 2nd, we are unaware of ppl's sex lives here on earth today,so, why would Jesus discuss what happens behind closed doors. 3rd, there is no reference in the Bible to prove if He did or didn't. He was human and Divine. A tough combination, that's why God chose Jesus and not any of His other children to die for the sins of the world.

to say Jesus was married. would be to say that he couldn't handle the humanly temptations he had. the bible says that God will not give anyone any temptation they can not with stand. so that would say that Jesus was thinking of sinning. which is blasphemy so there you go it is a lie and a heresy to believe it.

Jesus was a perfect man in mind and body.  All the portrayals I have seen of Jesus are hard to look at, scraggely hair, skinny,sunken in cheeks. That is not perfect. We know he had to have been well built to endure the beating he took before his death. It's hard to imagine what he looks like but I believe that since he was a perfect man he was beautiful beyond words.

Sounds like you have already made up your mind on this one.  How about educating yourself on the subject first.  JPII was a brilliant man and many times there are very good reasons behind things we do not understand.  Try reading Christopher West's "Theology of the Body" which is a work that discussed JPII's Wednesday audiences where he spoke of the beauty of human sexuality.  (BTW, why would WOMEN need access to condoms, they do not have a penis!)

The Scriptures counsel: “Deaden, therefore, your body members that are upon the earth as respects fornication, uncleanness, sexual appetite, hurtful desire, and covetousness.” (Colossians 3:5) Is one who practices masturbation ‘deadening his body members as respects sexual appetite’? On the contrary, he is stimulating the sexual appetite. The Bible urges that one avoid the thinking and conduct that lead to such problems, replacing them with wholesome activity, and that one cultivate self-control. (Philippians 4:8; Galatians 5:22, 23) When earnest effort is put forth to do this, such self-abuse can be avoided, with benefits mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.\n\nMasturbation is an unclean habit. (2 Corinthians 7:1) However, the Bible does not class it with serious sins such as fornication. In fact, it does not mention it at all. Therefore, a lapse into masturbation would hardly be unforgivable. Viewing it as if it were beyond forgiveness could actually be dangerous; a youth might reason that there is little point in trying to overcome the problem. But Bible principles indicate that a Christian should put forth strenuous efforts to fight this habit. (Colossians 3:5)\n\nA youth asked: “Is masturbation an unforgivable sin?” Masturbation is not mentioned at all in the Bible. The practice was common in the Greek-speaking world during Bible times, and several Greek words were used to describe the practice. But not one of these words is used in the Bible.\n\nSince masturbation is not directly condemned in the Bible, does this mean it is harmless? Absolutely not! Though it is not classed with such gross sins as fornication, masturbation is surely an unclean habit. (Ephesians 4:19) The principles of God’s Word thus indicate that you “benefit yourself” by strongly resisting this unclean habit.—Isaiah 48:17.\n\nThough sexual offenses such as premarital sex (fornication), homosexuality, adultery, and bestiality are plainly condemned as gross sins in the Bible, masturbation is not mentioned. (Genesis 39:7-9; Leviticus 18:20, 22, 23; 1 Corinthians 6:9, 10)\n\nThe apostle Paul, however, did not let his desires become like a harsh master. On the contrary, he wrote: “I pummel my body [fleshly desires] and lead it as a slave.” (1 Corinthians 9:27) He got tough with himself! A similar effort will enable anyone to break free from masturbation.

This is only a theory. The facts that we know is that he was single during the time that was recorded in his life. Biblical history tells the story of Jesus as a child and then goes straight to him performing miracles later in life . Theres a big age gap that wasnt recorded so officially no one knows. My advice is take american best sellers as un-researched bedtime stories

Here is exactly what Jesus went through for us, because He loves us that much. It is a decriptive narrative by a physicion of Jesus crucifixion. After you read it, You have to clearly realize that what Jesus did for us was out of total and complete endless love for each and everone of us....\n\nA medical doctor provides a description of the crucifixion of Jesus. \n\nAfter Jesus was brutally beaten and scorged with the cat of nine tails beyone human recognition, the cross is placed on the ground, and the exhausted Jesus is quickly thrown backwards, with His shoulders against the wood. The soldier feels for the depression at the front of the wrists, not the palm of the hand. He drives a heavy, square wrought-iron naiil through the wrist deep into the wood. Quickly he moves to the other side and repeats the action, being careful not to pull the arms too tightly, but to allow some flex and movement. The cross is then lifted into place. The left foot is pressed backward against the right foot, and with both feet extended, toes down, a nail is driven through the arch of each, leaving the knees flexed. the victim is now crucified. \n\nAs He slowly sags down with more weight on the nails in the wrists, and not on the hands as believed and depected in pictures and on crosses, excruciating fiery pain shoots along the fingers and up the arms to explode in the brain--the nails in the wrist are putting pressure on the median nerves. As He pushes Himself upward to avoid this stretching torment, He places the full weight on the nail through His feet. Again He feels the searing agony of the nail tearing through the nerves between the bones of His feet. \n\nAs the arms fatigue, cramps sweep through His muscles, knotting them with deep relentless, and throbbing pain. With these cramps comes the inability to push Himself upward to breathe. Finally, carbon dioxide builds up in the lungs and in the blood stream, and the cramps partially subsided. Spasmodically, He is able to push Himself upward to exhale and bring in life-giving oxygen. Hours of limitless pain, cycles of twisting, joint-renting cramps, intermittent partial asphyxiation, searing pain as tissue is torn from His lacerated back as He moves up and down against rough timber. Then another agony begins: a deep, crushing pain begins deep in the chest as the pericardius slowly fills with serum and begins to compress the heart. \n\nIt is now almost over. The loss of tissue fluids has reached a critical level. The compressed heart is struggling to pump heavey, thick sluggish blood into the tissues. The tortured lungs are making frantic effort to gasp in small gulps of air. He can feel the chill of death creeping through His tissues. Finally, He allows His body to die. \n\nAll this the Bible records with the simple words, "And they crucified Him" Mark 15:24 \n\nFor those of you who can read this graphic indepth description, of how Jesus willingly gave up His life, so you can have eternal life, but still reject His free gift of salvation by refusing to accept Him for this sacrifice. You will not only have to live with that choice, but will surely die by it as well. \n\nIf you wish to accept Jesus as your savior today, take one minute of your time and say this prayer... \n\nHere is your way to obtain salvation. \nIf you want to accept Christ, you can ask Him to be your Savior and Lord by praying a prayer like this: \n\n"Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. Please forgive my sins and give me the gift of eternal life. I ask you in to my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior. I want to serve you always." In the precious name of Jesus, amen

because he was human, he got temptations and everything, and it was worse for him because as the christ, it would be his first real experience of pain. Besides, look at the human race, were a waste of space, why should he go through all that for us? WOuldn't u hide, they are going to whip you and nail you to a cross, come on, you arent going to walk right up and be like "ok, here i am", at that time he was human, remember that

Your connection to Him will indicate whether your sexual practices are ok or if they are against His will.  Most deviant or sexual practices done in excess are against His will.  You will be firmly notified by extreme anguish and disconnection if your practices do not comply with what He allows you.\n\nA quote by my guidance counselor:\n\n"God also gave us our sexuality, knowing full well that it can get us into trouble. "\n\nBe wary , and be careful.  Focus more on serving Him through prayer and worship and serving Humanity by performing good deeds for those in need or volunteering your time.  You will no longer feel nasty or in a bad mood.  His glory is uplifting.\n\nYhwh bless you,\nCheryl

Well apart from being Jesus' love, Mary was a disciple and she was one of the inner circle. She was extremely intelligent, and many considered this unusual and didn't like her for it. I think much injustice has been done to her. The Catholic church has admitted that calling her a prostitute was an error (bible doesn't say this either), and now she's a saint. But she must be more than a saint and time will set things straight.

Well, that would make him more human than divine (or, at least, in some people's minds, detract from his divinity).  For pretty much the same reason, the Catholic Church upholds the idea that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a perpetual virgin.  (They state that she and Joseph never consummated their marriage.  To have had siblings would have made Jesus too human.  People would have pointed to the mortality of the siblings as arguement that Jesus was merely a human philosopher.)\nAlso, a belief system that would have allowed for such an idea as the marriage of Jesus and Mary Magdalene would have set up a complicated sytem of privilege.  Claimants of descent from Jesus would have caused huge political consequences, if such claims didn't otherwise doom the religion early on.\nIn short, such a belief would have complicated the religion.

Greetings,\n\nThere is a huge hole in the life of Jesus as documented in the Bible. That time between 12 and 30 is ample time for many things to happen. When you consider the age of adulthood was 13, he could have had a family. He even would have had time to raise several children to adulthood in that time. \n\nHe could have done all this without sinning. Marriage is not a sin. The psalmist said a man who gets a wife receives favor from God. Jesus certainly had God's favor. Sex is not a sin. Surely it is implicit in the commandment to be fruitful and multiply.\n\nHowever this is all just so much conjecture. Personally I think we are left with the space in Jesus life on purpose. So that we can relate with him right where we are. Left to imagine how Jesus might have related to the circumstances we are in. If it is sinful, he would have no part in it.\n\nI do not know if Jesus was married. He was the Son of God regardless. \n\nI do know that he died and was resurrected on the third day, and he is my savior. He can be your savior too. Pray that the Lord might reveal himself to you, spend time in the Bible, and invite Jesus into your life. Accept the gift of salvation.\n\nGod Bless,\n\nRobert
