ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 7 v29

THE TIME HAS GROWN SHORT. AMBROSIASTER: Paul means by this that the end of the world is coming soon. Given this fact, believers should not worry about having children and instead should dedicate themselves to the service of God. For there will be many unprecedented pressures on them, and many will fall into the devil’s trap. No one among us who has a proper fear of the pressures which the Savior predicted will want to be caught like that. COMMENTARY ON PAUL’S EPISTLES.

MARRIAGE IN THE END TIME. SEVERIAN OF GABALA: If married people are supposed to live as if they were single, how is it possible not to prefer virginity? PAULINE COMMENTARY FROM THE GREEK CHURCH.

BEGET SPIRITUAL CHILDREN. CAESARIUS OF ARLES: Those who practice physical sterility should observe fruitfulness in souls, and those who cannot have earthly children should try to beget spiritual ones. All our deeds are children. If we perform good works every day, we shall not lack spiritual offspring. SERMON 51.3.
