 Most men and women will marry.  A few will not but have other roles set by God.

The apostle Peter married and had multiple children.  We see this by the Bible, for Peter said he was an "elder" in the church and one of the requirements for an elder was that he be married and have faithful children.  

I Peter 5:1  Peter says:  The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:

I Tim. 3:4-5  One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

Jesus went to Peter's house and found Peter's mother-in-law ill and Jesus healed her.

Mt. 8:14:15  And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, HE saw his (Peter's) wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.  And HE (Jesus) touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

The Catholic's have been taught that Peter set up the Catholic church and I find they are devastated when you show them the above scriptures showing that Peter was married and had children for the Catholic's do not allow their ministers to marry.

The apostle Paul chose not to marry.

I Cor. 7:7  For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.

And Paul said:

I Cor. 7:28  But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.

38  So then he that giveth in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth not in marriage doeth better.

Paul expressed his feeling that they could attend upon the Lord "without distraction" if they did not marry, but they were free to marry.

Most will marry.  

In the beginning, God created the man and then the woman from a rib of the man.  

After the transgression, God set special roles for the man and the woman.

If we choose to go in ways against these ordinations, we put ourselves into ways of destruction.  We bless ourselves and others when we fulfill our roles as set by God.

But first, we must see those roles from the Bible.
