Matthew 19:11-12

¹¹“Not everyone can accept this word,” He replied, “but only those to whom it has been given.

¹²For there are eunuchs who were born that way; others were made that way by men; and still others live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”
