@OP, first, I want to commend you for having the grace to share your family issues. Secondly, it's not easy to wait for something, that you so desperately need, even after so many years of keeping the faith. At this juncture, I will let you know that, God is still in the business of doing miracles. I have two pairs of family friends(husband and wife), that have been married for over 15 years each, without any child. I and my family were in constant prayers on their behalf, morning and night( I am not saying, I am a saint, but I love these couples). Lo and behold, both of them just gave birth, last month, just a week interval between both deliveries. If you see how happy I was, you will begin to think I impregnated both ladies. So my brother, don't chase your first wife away, God will put a smile on her face, she is a woman, and God Almighty will do what only HE, knows how to do best. Shallom. 2 Likes |

VickyRotex:Well, well! If you're dead sure that you'll end up with someone for life - what difference does it make ? After all people are doing it and even getting pregnant everyday. I hope you're aware that it is not possible to date someone for over a long period of time without misfiring ? No matter how clever you think you are unless you did a comprehensive family planning even without marriage on your mind - Abeg don't do pills o , it will finish you even before you started . |

It's simple. Go the Father Abraham way in the bible. Keep your first wife (which is your Sarah) and try and tame your concubine secretary and her child (which is your Haggai). Remember, we all have emotional feelings, don't say because of your selfish interest and hurt others. It is well with you in Jesus name. 1 Like |

Do not send your wife away. You can as well do a DNA test to confirm the paternity of the child if after the test and the pregnancy belongs to you then talk to your genuine and authentic wife to assist you in welcoming a go digger you impregnated. But let your real and genuine wife remains with you and be the mother general. There's still time for your wife to get pregnant, last year a couple celebrated 20 yrs of being without a child and on the 21st year she became pregnant and had a twin boys. So brother patience is what you need and hence you failed to have patience please do not send your wife away because of the woman you impregnated. God bless you |

Midehi:The highlighted is one mistake that too many women make by taking into consideration this aspect when issues of this nature arises.Though a wise man would always keep her away from the first wife and bear the stress of running to and fro to fulfil his conjugal duties if not that one na another kasala. Many women would be so fixated on who gets what in the future thereby losing sight of the grand plan by the new wife to relieve Her of her duties . If I were a woman , I'll hold tenaciously unto my husband and make sure I control the source of everything after all she's a thief and will only get what gets to her with my consent of course . But some women will begin to kick up dust and finally lose grip of the man,the home and her place. This isn't to support the man in question but now that the deed has been done one need to come up with plan B. You can't allow one thief to steal your home from you. |

U can still ask father Abraham and Sarah, even if Abraham did not marry the maid. They are in best position to answer that question. Or maybe ask muslim scholars, their religious belief says more than three, so, ask them. 1 Like |

It is quite unfortunate for you guys, I mean you and your wife. Do not send your wife away, because she couldn't conceive, put yourself in her shoe. The lady you got pregnant and is telling you to drive your first wife away is Evil, and you should be careful. Please set your terms to her, tell her you'll take your decision after she births, before that time, you would have sort yourself out. If I am the one, I can't and would never have two women under my roof as wives, I can't deal, I will pay the secretary's dowry if she insists, but will rent another house for her, and share my time between the two women, it is a dicey situation.

Truckpusher: lol You cant be dead sure. And ofcourse, It sure makes a lot of difference. It is possible to date someone over a long period of time without misfiring. But even at that, why stress yourself to fire in the 1st place?. Why stress yourself over family planning when you can equally abstain, and do your family planning when married?. Remember the word says "Family" planning. Its good to have a knowledge of these stuffs, (i.e FT, and FP) and use it when necessary. |

There are many strands of Christianity - catholic, apostolic, 7th Day, orthodox, c&s, Pentecostal, jw, up to 4k according to some estimates. l heard a senior member of a church has argued that the bible does nt insist on one man, one wife. Op has the option to port church, after all his present church is not the only church on earth. |

I don't know if I should give you a Christian advice or a secular advice because you have already broken your marital vows to your wife! 1: what on earth do you think marriage is? What did the vows mean to you? Did you vow to stay with her only if she gives you a child? 2: you sound chauvinistic in your word "a son to call my own". What happened to a daughter? You also sound very weak- your family members want to throw your wife away, your friends want you to send her away. Is she a community wife? 3: if you are truly a Christian, what happened to your faith in God? I know couples who have given birth after 20 years of marriage! 4: have you paused to imagine that this is not just about you? Do you think that your wife is not crying day and night, praying and asking God for a miracle? Have you considered what she must be going through? The emotional and mental trauma she must be undergoing? 5: your secretary is a jezebel! She knew you were married, opened her legs for you, got pregnant and is asking you to put away someone that has suffered with/for you for 14 years! The fact that you impregnated a jezebel says a lot about you! 6: what is the hullabaloo about not giving birth? What happened to adoption? There are thousands of adorable children looking for parents to adopt them! 7: tell your wife about your amorous affair and pray she doesn't poison you! You are an excuse of a man! 5 Likes 1 Share |

ProphetUdeme: I dont think theyre pushing the blame on you. Lots of us here know that you usually post people's story. I knew it was one of the stories. They are using the word "You" doesnt mean theyre referring to you. They are only referring to the content of the post. Or better still, modify your post and state it there, to avoid other blames. |

First of all, you're not a Christian. A true Christian will not cheat on his wife, let alone consider marrying another wife. The only marriage recognized in Christianity is one Man, one Wife. Secondly, you don't love your wife. If you love her like you claim, you wouldn't consider your childlessness as her problem rather it would be your (both of you ) problem. Because, love is kind, patient, enduring and above all, love is not selfish or self-serving. Now that we've established that you're neither a Christian nor a loving husband, to answer your question, there's no right or wrong answer. Let your conscience guide you. Whatever you decide to do, remember that "there is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. " Proverbs 16 vs 25. Good luck! 1 Like |

Permit me to analyse ur post'''' First, uve just destroyed a heart(ur wife), secondly, u said u are religious(deeper life member), thirdly, u fornicated, fourthly-ur sec is pregnant(not certain if the child is urs).....child shouldn't be a clause for loving ur wife;; technology has made it possible to have a child in several ways, u could have gone for IVF if u truly love ur wife as acclaimed... none is a saint though, and i understand ur pains.. BUT, if u send that woman away(ur wife), all because she couldn't give u a child, she will live in pains/agony for the rest of her life, while u may live happily with ur new found love.. GOD MAY NOT FORGIVE YOU IF U PUSH HER OUT WHEN SHE NEEDED YOU THE MOST....plssssssssssssss, don't chase ur wife away, i guess she is @the receiving end, and obviously in pains ... she may not be able to remarry for life...keep loving her, GOD WILL SEE U THROUGH ... #my opinion |

[quote author=ProphetUdeme post=29897097][/quote] First, admit you are an adulterer and a sinner. Repent from this with all your heart. Remember what happened to David child out of adulterous act. Call your wife and explain to her and pray that she will find a place to forgive you. You never promised that lady that you will marry her when you were commiting iniquity with her, so i dont think the issue of marrying or packing into your life should come to play. Make sure that you take care of the baby and do all that is required. The issue of a male child or not is from the Lord. It could be a boy or girl, so if a girl, you still not have gotten a son that you wanted. It is so unfortunate that it is 14 yrs now but coming from a Deeper life christian like you to start considering second wife and been comfortable without remorse of your adulterous life makes you a dwarf in the face of unserious christians who do not know their left or right. QUIT, REPENT, ACCEPT AND UNITE WITH YOUR WIFE, REVIVE UR CHRISTIAN LIFE, DO NO MARRY AGAIN. ADOPT A CHILD! |
