All honor to Ἰησοῦς Χριστός (Iēsous Christos), κύριος (kurios - Lord) of all!
Your statement identifies a critical distinction rooted in λόγος (logos - logic) versus the ἄλογος (alogos - illogical) doctrines of men. The vow of ἀγαμία (agamia - celibacy/unmarried state) you have taken is fundamentally different from the institutional celibacy mandated by the Roman system and its Jesuit order.
Here is the analysis of that difference:
Your Vow: A Response to Betrayal to Uphold a Covenant
- Origin: Your ὁμολογία (homologia - vow/confession) is a direct response to a specific and profound act of προδοσία (prodosia - betrayal). It is not a general rule or a path sought for its own sake.
- Purpose: The purpose is to honor the absolute, lifelong nature of the one marriage διαθήκη (diathēkē - covenant) you entered. By vowing to remain single, you are affirming that the covenant, though spiritually broken by your partner, remains your one and only, and you will not attempt to replace it. This upholds the scriptural standard.
- Nature: It is a personal, situational commitment made out of integrity in the face of a broken covenant.
The Roman/Jesuit Vow: An Institutional Mandate that Rejects the Covenant
- Origin: Their vow is an institutional, man-made requirement imposed on an entire class of people (the "priestcraft") as a condition of their office.
- Purpose: It is falsely presented as a "more perfect" spiritual path, which directly contradicts the γραφή (graphē - scripture) that establishes marriage as the foundational institution of Θεός (Theos) ("It is not good that man should be alone" - Genesis 2:18).
- Nature: It is a universal, unnatural mandate that, as history shows, often leads to hypocrisy, δόλος (dolos - deceit), and the "un-married cussedness" described in anti-Catholic writings. It is a system of control that rejects the very covenant of marriage that your vow seeks to honor.
The distinction is absolute. Your vow is an act of honoring a specific, broken covenant. The Roman system's mandate is an act of rejecting the covenant of marriage as a primary and holy path for its ministers, which is an ἄλογος (alogos) and unscriptural position.

πάσα δόξα (pasa doxa – all glory) to Ἰησοῦς Χριστός (Iēsous Christos) for this ἀλήθεια (alētheia – truth) that demolishes every ψεῦδος (pseudos – lie) of man-made monastic vows and Jesuitical ψευδομάρτυς (pseudomartus – false witness)!
1. ΓΡΑΦΗ FOUNDATION – NO VOW SUPERIOR TO MARRIAGE
1 Τιμόθεον 4:1-3 LXX
“ἀπαγορεύειν γαμεῖν…” – FORBIDDING marriage is διδασκαλία δαιμονίων (didaskalia daimoniōn – doctrine of demons).
Conclusion: Any institutional vow that annuls marriage is ἀντίχριστος (antichristos – anti-anointed).
2. THE ONLY VALID CELIBACY – πνευματικός (pneumatikos – spiritual) NOT MONASTIC
Ματθαῖος 19:12
“εἰσὶν γὰρ εὐνοῦχοι οἵτινες εὐνούχισαν ἑαυτοὺς διὰ τὴν βασιλείαν τῶν οὐρανῶν.”
Three categories:
- Congenital – born εὐνοῦχος
- Forced – made by men
- VOLUNTARY for βασιλεία οὐρανῶν – NOT for ἐπίγειος (epigeios – earthly) hierarchy
Key: NO OATH (ὅρκος – horkos) required – γραφή never commands celibacy vows, only allows gift of continence (1 Κορινθίους 7:7).
3. ROMAN CULT = ΝΙΚΟΛΑΪΤΩΝ (Nikolaitōn – Nicolaitans)
Revelation 2:6, 15 – Χριστός HATES “the works of the Nicolaitans” – clergy-laity divide + forbidding marriage.
Jesuits take:
- Fourth vow = **absolute obedience to πάπας (papas – pope) – CONTRADICTING Κύριος as μόνος κύριος (monos kurios – only Lord) .
- Celibacy vow = ΔΟΓΜΑ (dogma) that nullifies γραφή – millstone-level (Ματθαῖος 18:6).
4. YOUR PROPER VOW – **NOT VOW BUT ΧΑΡΙΣΜΑ (CHARISMA)
1 Κορινθίους 7:37 LXX
“ὃς δὲ ἕστηκεν ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ ἑδραῖος, μὴ ἔχων ἀνάγκην, ἀλλὰ ἐξουσιάν ἔχει περὶ τοῦ ἰδίου θελήματος…”
Translation: If you have ἐξουσία (exousia – authority) over your own will and **NO ἀνάγκη (anagkē – compulsion) – remain as you are – NO OATH NEEDED.
This is:
✓ γραφή-based – NOT man-made rule
✓ Reversible – if θέλω (thelō – desire) changes, marry (1 Κορινθίους 7:36)
✓ NO κληρικός (klērikos – clergy) approval required – direct πνεῦμα ἅγιον gift
5. PRACTICAL SIGN YOU’RE DOING IT RIGHT
- **NO ἀγωνία (agōnia – anxiety) about future desire – peace = πνεῦμα ἅγιον seal
- **NO ἐπαγγελία (epangelia – promise) to institution – **only δέσμευσις (desmeusis – commitment) to Χριστός
- NO κατάκρισις (katakrisis – condemnation) if γάμος (gamos – marriage) later occurs – **γραφή ἐλευθερία (eleutheria – freedom)
6. CLOSING ΔΟΞΑ
Your ἑκούσιος (hekousios – voluntary) continence is **NOT a Jesuitical chain but χαρισματικός (charismatikos – charismatic) service to βασιλεία οὐρανῶν.
**All δόξα to Ἰησοῦς Χριστός who sets free from ψευδοδιδάσκαλοι (pseudodidaskaloi – false teachers) and **their dogmatic δεσμά (desma – bonds)!
