Who thinks that Jesus Christ was married with Mary Magdalene and why?
920807
The Word of God is the only TRUTH in this messed up world. It does not tell me that He was married to her,so I choose to believe the Bible and I am blessed because of it. He came to die ,to be our redeemer. That is the only reason. He did not come to get married and have a family. He did what He came to do and I am so glad. I am the redeemed and I will someday be there with Him because I choose to believe the TRUTH which is Jesus Christ. The only TRUTH. It is only a lie from the enemy saying that He was married to a woman that had demons. They don't know that Jesus is Holy and everything has to be holy for Him. We will not be judged on knowing what the holy grail is, we will be judged on [if we know Jesus or not in our heart] if we gave Him our life or selfishly kept it for ourself to waste.

no marry is jesus's mother and is not in the trinity god sent jesus into her to bear as a child the christ. The trinity is god the father the son and the holy ghost. SO yeah there's your answer.

Jesus had a half brother named James.  He wrote one of the books in the bible.  There is no proof Jesus was married, that was a made up fact to promote a book and a movie.

According to the gnostic scriptures (mentioned in the DaVinci), Christ did not have a wife (christ is god; christ-force; cosmic christ; son of god; ineffable mind, logos, the highest AEON), but Jesus the man was married to Mary Magdalene.

I think there is a possibility that Jesus got married and had children but as for Religious groups covering it up - no.

The Secret Gospel of Mark (not part of the official Christian canon) implies that Jesus had a sexual relationship with Lazarus. \n\nWhether Jesus was gay, or had children with Mary Magdalene, is all just speculation. We really don't know anything about Jesus beyond what's written in the gospels...and the gospels were written long after Jesus' death.

It wasn't an affair. They were married. And even if he did, why is everyone always picking on Jesus? Seriously, everyone's always trying to prove that he was bad or worng or didn't exist or something. If people want to believe that Jesus is the saviour, then let them. Why are people that choose not to believe so concerned about Jesus?

I agree, Jesus could not have gotten married and had a child.\nJesus was only sent here for the purpose of teaching the deciples and spreading Gods word to many, and as a sacrifice to die in our place  for sins.\nJesus was a sacrifice without a spot, it is mentioned, that the mesiah was clean of sin.\nThe Davinci Code is yet another example of swaying from the bible to tell biblical untruths, to create a stir, and to make money, I would not be involved in such blasmophy.

well christianity was established by peter one of the disciples of jesus.  and thus came into existence vatican and the roman catholic church.  according to the bible jesus christ was unmarried when he died and mary magdalene was a prostitute.\n\nbut there is an alternate theory on which dan brown has based his book.\n\nthis other theory says that jesus married mary magdalene and they both even had children and their descendants are alive till date.\n\naccording to this theory jesus wanted mary to be his successor to establish his church and propagate his preachings and not peter.  it is also said that the roman catholic church has made a number of attempts to kill the descendants of jesus and mary

There would be nothing wrong with Jesus having a wife and even children. He would not have violated His perfectness because marriage then was a very sacred thing. Most marriages at that time were arranged and it is quite possible that to hold with the customs of the time Jesus may have had an arranged marriage.\n\nWhether or not He was married to Mary Magdeline is a topic that will be discussed for many years. There is some evidence in the Gospel of Mary that she may have been because Jesus told her things that He did not tell the other disciples. It also says (indicates) Jesus kissed her on the mouth, not done except to a wife at that time.\n\nThose who were chosen to assemble the Bible as we have it today had hundreds of letters and gospels to choose from. Because they wanted to make the Bible masculine they choose mainly those books that carried out this wish of the early mainly Catholic church. They required all the other writtings to be destroyed. Thank goodness they are slowly finding some of the copies that did not get destroyed such as the "Dead Sea Scrolls" and now the most recent Gospel of Judas.\n\nAlthough the De Vinci Code is basically a fictional story, I beleive the reason, especially the Catholic Church is so opposed, the occurances depicted is because it is closer to the truth than they want the people to know. The church has always tried to control the people by fear; something that I have always disliked. By making many things that were not sin into sin they could make the people pay to have forgiveness of these "sins". The church was able to fill their coffers easily in this way and some churches still do this today.\n\nTo me Jesus is a very real person and He is my Savior, but I do not hold with any church because of they way they have lied to their people over the years. You don't have to go to a church to be a Christian...All it requies is a belief and a love for Jesus. there is no other requirement.

Actually there is no credible evidence from the original Gospel texts that would indicate that Mary was a whore, prostitue, or women of ill repute.  Many of these references where translated in the middle ages, not conicidentally at the time that the Church was consolidating its power after the vacuum created by the fall of the Roman Empire.  Many theological scholars believe that Mary was in fact a close (maybe even closer than Peter) disciple.  As too your question about Mary being Jesus' houswife. There is no credible evidence, either scriptual, archeological, or historical that would indicate that Mary was involved in with Jesus in any other copacity than a close friend, disciple, and follower

Bible doesn't specify what the carpenter built, was it furniture or boats? Why mention it? Same thing, Jesus was human and it was normal to be married, so why write about something that is obvious? Even the gnostics, who wrote that he loved her, didn't mention any details at all. If the writer's intention was to only make Mary look like Jesus' wife, then she (gnostic writers were mainly females) would have added details. They didn't because it is irrlevent, it's the "love" that is important and that's all. However note that the gnostics married spiritually, the marriage ceremony was sexual intercourse. Note also the wedding mentioned in the Christian bible... it was "on the third day" (significance?), the groom always provided the wine (Jesus turned water into wine there [this is symbolical, not a miracle]). Then, who is "the disciple whom Jesus loved"? Why does the writer not simply say who it is? If bible is "word of God" then the reader has a right to know. Why the mystery? The reason is because the gnostics were all about "hidden knowledge", that is how they wrote. Gospel of John is the most "gnostic" of the synoptics. No time left, but yes there is more than enough evidence to support that the Magdalene was Jesus' consort.

All these people who are saying that Jesus had siblings and that Mary & Joseph had relations after he was born are relying on the KJV text.  This is a flaw in the translation.  The Bible says that Mary & Joseph had no sexual relations until his birth -- but the Greek word (unlike the English) is very different.  A more correct translation would be that prior to his birth there were no relations with no implication of what occurred after that.\n\nAs for the brothers -- the Greek word actually  means "close relative" and could be applied to a cousin as well.\n\nThe reason that Catholics believe that Mary stayed a virgin all her life are two-fold.  The first is that they did not use the KJV, so never ran into that particular translation problem.  The second is that in the Catholic Bible there is text where Mary worries about being married because she made a vow to God that she would remain a virgin.  Catholics believe that any vow made to God by the mother of Jesus would be kept -- therefore, they believe that she must have remained a virgin.  Protestants do not have this text in their Bible -- because Martin Luther decided it was not inspired by God.\n\nWhat do I believe?  Oh -- I not only believe that they did not have a sexless marriage, I believe that Mary was not a virgin when Jesus was born.\n\nSomeone up above said something about the siblings of Jesus not being immacualtely conceived.  The Immaculate Conception does not refer to virgin birth.  It refers to the Catholic belief that Mary was born without Original Sin.

The new guy has obviously been influenced by the _da_Vinci_Code_ or other, similar works that posit that Jesus was married (most likely to Mary Magdalene), and likely had children through that union.\n\nThere are a couple verses in the gospels (depending on your translation - I'm looking at the New International Version) where Jesus is referred to as having brothers; I'd look specifically at Matthew 13:54-56, which says \n\n"54 Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. "Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?" they asked. 55 "Isn't this the carpenter's son? Isn't his mother's name Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? 56 Aren't all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?"\n\nWhile scholars have argued that "brother" might actually mean "cousin" or "other close male relative", the text wouldn't directly support that.\n\nThe wife and children thing can't be disproved Biblically - but neither can it be proven.  Some take the absense of direct reference to a wife as proof, while say that any man referred to as a rabbi/teacher would need to be married to have that status (as per the culture of the time).  Either way, there isn't anything that can be used definitively either way.

Try a book called Holy Blood / Holy grail. It proposes that the "Grail" is actually the bloodline of Christ as opposed to a cup. Many persons believe this especially as Mary Magdelene was "written out" of the bible as a disciple by the early church. Presumably to suggest that women had no place as leaders in the early church. As with all of these theories they are just that. The DaVinci Code is a work of fiction about the protagonist trying to verify this theory and should be taken with a pinch of salt. However the underlying theory is very much debated and real.\nI do, however, believe that Jesus (as an individual) did exist so it is reasonable to assume he did marry and have children as he would have appeared VERY odd in those days as an unmarried individual. Whether he was the son of god or not...that's up to the individual.
