1Ti 4:3 Forbidding to marry...

If a man wants to marry, he does not become a Catholic priest. No one is forced to become a Catholic priest. Those who choose to do so knowingly and willingly make that sacrifice out of their love for God.

Only a priest is forbidden to marry … in violation of the word of God.

There are sects of the Roman Catholic Church which do allow married men to become priests but not to become bishops. I met some from Ukraine.
