I want you to find where it says the Savior was actually married."

Have you ever read your Bibles? I must confess I have not read it for some time, but looked more to Him who rules on high, and to those who hold the words of life in the inspiration of the Holy Ghost; I look to them more frequently than to it. I have once memorized the Bible, and when any one quoted one verse, I could quote the next. I have memorized it in English, German, and Hebrew, still I do not profess to be very familiar with it now, yet the sentiments and spirit of it are in my heart, and will be as long as I live, and still remain when I am gone to another sphere. When does it say the Savior was married? I believe I will read it for your accommodation, or you might not believe my words were I to say that there is indeed such a Scripture.

We will turn over to the account of the marriage in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Yes, and somebody else too. You will find it in the 2nd chapter of John's Gospel; remember it and read it when you go home. "And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: and both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. And there were set there six water pots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the water pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, and saith unto him"-that is, the ruler of the feast saith unto the bridegroom, "Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now."

Gentlemen, that is as plain as the translators, or different councils over this Scripture, dare allow it to go to the world, but the thing is there; it is told; Jesus was the bridegroom at the marriage of Cana of Galilee, and he told them what to do.

Now there was actually a marriage; and if Jesus was not the bridegroom on that occasion, please tell who was. If any man can show this, and prove that it was not the Savior of the world, then I will acknowledge I am in error. We say it was Jesus Christ who was married, to be brought into the relation whereby he could see his seed, before he was crucified.

Doctrine Mormon Married Jesus

I speak of myself alone. I believe that Jesus was married, if he wasn't then he did not keep the whole law of Moses, thus he did not live a sinless life. According to Jewish belief if a person does not get married it is a sin. SO was Jesus married I believe that he was, to whom I do not know. Is there any evidence that he was married? He lived a sinless life, thus fulfilling the Law of Moses.

Christ was baptized, even though he was perfect and had no reason to. I figure he was married if not out of love, which I'm sure he had, out of example. He wants us to be married and have families, so I figure he married and had child/ren as well to show the world that it was what God has commanded. Remember the "Be fruitful and multiply?" And I'm sure that Jesus would have married before he was "fruitful" so I do believe he was married and had a child. Marriage and having children are both commandments of God, and wouldn't you think that Jesus followed all his Father's commandments?
Why they don't mention in the Bible plainly if he was married or not, is beside me. It could be for dozens of reasons. All I want to say is that I believe he was married and had a child or children. I believe he would have followed those commandments.

I have read the whole bible, and no there are no references to Christ being married but my seminary teacher at the time, who had been to jerusalem and studied jewish culture and whatnot told me that it was implied he was married because of some of the things he did and the status he held was usually held by a married man.

Here are a couple of very interesting little tidbits:

LDS Church Issues Statement Regarding "The Da Vinci Code"

However, there is this little piece from a non-canonical source:

Or this one:

Of course, it was only opinion when Elder Orson Hyde proclaimed, in great detail, that Jesus Christ was married, and President Brigham Young never called it false doctrine, and allowed the saints in attendance to come to the conclusion that it was true doctrine.

And, it is only opinion that Joseph Smith was identified as a direct descendant of Jesus Christ.

Why, can SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY? Why does the Church deny doctrines and principles that were taught so clearly in the 1900s? Is is ONLY a matter of trying to appear like the Catholics and Baptists and Lutherans and Methodists, so that they will LIKE us? Why do we deny the wonderful knowledge that was restored by Joseph Smith, and embrace the apostate practices and doctrines of modern Christianity? Are we scared that we might appear to be a "peculiar people"?

I am surprised the Church even bothered to issue a statement on the subject. I am also surprised that it did not come from the First Presidency. I am curious as to why more has not ever been 'officially disclosed' with regards to the marriage(s) of Jesus and I feel the disclosure of a Heavenly Mother or the Virgin Conception is taken into consideration when looking for an answer - it is either not relevant enough - or we are not worthy enough. I believe the "not worthy" part is more true. However, we all within this Thread have come to the realization that Christ did marry, does anyone still doubt?

I am really stumped as to why there was any statement issued. I am just as stumped as to why a couple of professors from BYU bothered to write a book about it. From all reports on the book, it appears to be an attempt to quietly deny the doctrine of Christ being married, without specifically making any sort of statement on the subject.

The Church teaches that marriage is an essential part of our Exaltation. Considering that Christ would seek baptism, why is it not logical to accept that he would also be married. It is true that no where specifically talks about Christ being married, but no where specifically talks about Him receiving an endowment, doing baptisms for the dead, or otherwise, but it does not mean it wasn't done. I believe the Saints are really not interested in this, otherwise the First Presidency would have issued a statement as in times past to clarify past doctrines. It will probably die down with the movie.
