- The Time Is Short
Hisashi Okada
Bible: 1 Corinthians 7:29-35
- But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
- And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
- And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
- But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
- But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
- There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
- And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
