I 100% agree with you. I misunderstood your point originally.
Family is incredibly fulfilling but only Jesus provides lasting and eternal fulfillment.
Exactly. Paul wasn’t giving lifestyle advice. He was dismantling the lie that fulfillment comes from marriage, status, or bloodline.
The irony: this person may not even be a follower of the Way, yet the evangelical church in the U.S. has absorbed a secular theology that treats marriage as salvation.
That’s the Pioneer Fund’s legacy https://stacker.news/items/1279533/r/jamalderrick — race science rebranded as “family order,” preached as Gospel.
Paul’s message was the opposite: identity in Christ, not reproduction or heritage.
The church stopped preaching resurrection and started preaching lineage.
