Jesus never insisted that you cannot be married to serve. In fact, He glorifies and praises the institution of marriage in His ministry. His first reported miracle was performed at a wedding feast. Jesus cherished and celebrated marriage.

"Jesus never insisted that you cannot be married to serve."

Jesus also ever insisted you have to be a priest to serve. " In fact, He glorifies and praises the institution of marriage in His ministry. His first reported miracle was performed at a wedding feast. Jesus cherished and celebrated marriage."

And of course, there are tens of thousands of married clergy in the Catholic Church both deacons and priests. That's what Matrimony is a Sacrament in the Catholic Church.
