Quote:
That Paul believed that the rapture and second coming could happen in his lifetime can be seen why he taught it was better to be single.


Sid, you're reading something into the Scriptures that is NOT there....the very charge your ilk makes against Catholics.

Even so, you're reasoning for the single life being the better choice works since EVERY generation for 2000+ years now thought they were the ones to see the 2nd Coming of Christ.

God bless you
