Amberon11:If God wants man to marry one wife, why did he not stop Jacob? |

If God didn't want Adam to eat the fruit, why did he not stop him? RuthlessLeader: |

Amberon11:I don't know. That is why I am an atheist. How can an omnipotent and omniscient god who is all loving allow his child to do something like that? |

There is something called free will and God doesn't interfere with it. That is why people like you spend hours insulting him everyday and yet you're still alive. That is why you can go blow up a place and kill people, it is your choice. That he allows all these happen doesn't by any stretch of immagination disprove his existence. RuthlessLeader: |

Amberon11:Free will? So because of free will, God allowed Adam to doom all of us? Would you allow a rapist to go to the school your daughter goes to so that he can lure and kidnap her all because of free will? Because that is what God did by letting Satan enter the garden to tempt eve, you know? |

Would you allow your house boy insult you every single day for long hours while doing nothing about it? That is what God takes from you. RuthlessLeader: |

Amberon11:What? Didn't God say we were his children? Why would a loving father allow a rapist near his naive children to be easily lured away and kidnapped? |

asuustrike2009: I like intelligent replies. This above ^^^^ is one. But I have some issues with. Abraham, a Prophet and Friend of God can never take a concubine not to talk of concubines! The Bible clearly recorded that Abraham took a wife every time the name Hagar and Keturah came up and I will show you now. You can fact checked any references I give in my post. 1.16:3 And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife. Genesis 2.25:1 Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah. Genesis Now, in the Bible reading further down, you will see references made to both noble Ladies as Concubines. You can't be a wife and a concubine to the same man. Those concubine references were made by bigot Jewish hands simply to show that they were the only blessed Children of Abraham. |

Amberon11: It is not what I said but what the cold hard fact of history says. The dude was never a Jew as you can't name him after a grandson's name\alias |

There are excess women in the World, what exactly is the Christian Doctrine concerning the excess? |
Re: Can A Christian Man Marry More Than One Wife by Amberon11: 5:16pm On Jul 29, 2018 |
Abraham was a Jew. Any other thing is not fact but fiction. Lukuluku69: |
Re: Can A Christian Man Marry More Than One Wife by Lukuluku69(m): 7:12pm On Jul 29, 2018 |
Amberon11: 14:13 And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with Abram. Genesis The bible says he was Hebrew! |
Re: Can A Christian Man Marry More Than One Wife by Amberon11: 8:29pm On Jul 29, 2018 |
He was Hebrew but his religion was Judaism as the religion of the hebrews is known today as Judaism. The Jews trace their origins to the ancient hebrews so yes Abraham was a Jew. It seems you have no knowledge of what you speak about. Lukuluku69: |
Re: Can A Christian Man Marry More Than One Wife by Lukuluku69(m): 10:41pm On Aug 01, 2018 |
Amberon11: Now listen before you throw words around about someone being knowledgeable or not. The Bible called Abraham a Hebrew: meaning a man or someone from beyond the River Euphrates which is the Plains of Mesopotamia in present day Iraq. Do Jews ever have their dwellings in Mesopotamia pre-Abrahmic era? I know it is a tough job weaning folks like you from years of indoctrination. The best we could is to lay the facts on the Table and hope "perchance they will reflect" |

Go educate yourself before spewing thrash. A quick Google search will cure your ignorance. Wean yourself from your God-obsession first dumbo. Lukuluku69: |
Re: Can A Christian Man Marry More Than One Wife by Lukuluku69(m): 10:36pm On Aug 02, 2018 |
Amberon11:I guess I must have touched a nerve for you to have use the word Dumbo. I will let that pass. Google? A whole lot of Research were done before Google and people are Still doing that. My God-obsession? We all are obsessed with something. Thank God I am obsessed with Him. You know it is kinda funny for someone who tagged someone with a name that came into existence some 100 years after the person lived. Discerning readers can tell who the Dumbo really is! |

doyinbaby:YES it does! If you believe the Genesis account of creation you'll notice that God created ONE man and ONE woman,that's the standard the Creator set for humans to have PEACE.Genesis 2:23,24 After Adam and Eve asked God to step aside and allow them make decisions on what's GOOD and what's BAD,many of their children started doing things in contrary to God's standard(Genesis 4:19) but God allowed them until the arrival of HIS son who now directed all those who wants to live forever in PEACE back to the standard God set IN THE BEGINNING! Matthew 19:3-9 Notice that Jesus kept emphasizing on THE BEGINNING! |
