Jesus first speaks of marriage. He makes it clear that what God put together as one flesh, no man can separate. There is no room for divorce simply to marry another. There is no room for pre and extra affairs. If you are incapable to do so, than marriage is not for you, and going against this is doing so at your own peril. Jesus warns them, it is better that they not marry.
Jesus also talked about those who decided not to marry. It may be because they chose to do so, or it may be because they were forced to (probably by a past tragedy in their lives). Jesus made sure we're aware of the beautiful reason... for the sake of the Kingdom of heaven.
The world teaches us to have sex for pleasure, or that celibacy sucks. Jesus reminds us that whatever your state of life is, not having God is a "dead life", for He is the source of life. Married? Learn and share God's love through your family. Single? Learn to give yourself to the world with a smile. Be Jesus to the people around you, and be blessed immensely!
