>"Be fruitful and multiply"
Jesus didn't have any kids and did SR his entire life, why does the bible tell us to multiply?
He also says
>John 17:14-16 – "They are not of the world, even as I am not of it."
So why should we have kids when we are not of this world?

Jesus has ~3 billion living children and ~5 billion living adopted/step children.

Then why don't you just go out and start building an ark?

Not every commandment, blessing or prophecy ever given in the bible applies to a christian today (though we can learn from them all). A very simple concept to grasp, but requires studying to discern what goes and what doesn't in every dispensation.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15)

Hahaha, that's so funny.
Jesus had many wives and his disciples all were married with at least one wife.

Chapter and verse.

Paul's antibatalist rants are pretty much in the book specifically to explain this.. .

He wasnt saying that to you, he was speaking to your cells. Jesus wants your cells to multiply aggressively (cancer), he probably had cancer himself but it didnt affect he cause he was constantly healing himself.
Why did Jesus turn water into wine? Water is unlikely to cause cancer but alcohol is a group 1 carcinogen, its cancer certified.
Why didnt Jesus teach anything about medicine? To stop people from fighting cancer
Why did Jesus walk on water? He wanted to
The moment we cure cancer is the moment Jesus will descend to trigger the apocalypse

We don't know much about Jesus' life, but the thing is that we must multiplying and being fruitful seems to go hand in hand. Not being of this world very probably shouldn't be taken literally, but who knows.

don't think about it bro. just listen to saul the mass murdering jew and throw away the rest of the bible all u need is love and hope

It was a blessing, not an order as some protestants say.
The same blessing was said to animals, who are not rational thus not able to follow orders.
