My question though, is how do we reconcile St. Paul and St. Tomithy's teachings about priests being married?

That last part about conforming ourselves even now to the way we will be in the age to come, is good. I never thought of that. Thank you Jimmy for sharing your knowledge of the faith with us. BTW I thoroughly recommend Jimmy Atkins book "the fathers know best".

It makes sense why the Church has taught us this. I think it allows Priests to love everyone and not just one person, so it has a degree of selfishness to it.
