His father married 13 wives with 53 children, so this is not surprising coming from him. 1 Corinthians 7 and states that polygamy is unlawful; and that one man is to have but one wife, and to keep to her; and that one woman is to have but one husband, and to keep to him and the wife only has a power over the husband's body, a right to it, and may claim the use of it: this power over 60 Likes 10 Shares |

Modern men style of polygamy differs, they want a woman who can take care of herself so he can go ahead and marry another one with the peanut he's contributing at home. This is what Yul Edochie wanted to do to his breadwinner wife (as confirmed by Yul's father Pete Edochie) . How can a woman be responsible for more than 85% of the success of the home and you dare want to add another wife and make her fund your polygamous life? Yul hit head for ground sha. 31 Likes 3 Shares |

God1000:There is no where in the whole of 1 Corinthians 7 that it is mentioned one man is to have one wife. I think the issue is that you are either deliberately or ignorantly misinterpreting the lexical ambiguity in 1 Corinthians 7:2 [KJV] which states that:

God1000:We didn't attend the same school, I have my own school that I attended, and you have yours. So if I say I have my own school I attended, does that mean I was the only one in the school? If I tell my friends I can't stay here, I'm going back to my own house, does that mean I'm the only one who lives in the house? Come to think of it, "my own house" doesn't even mean I own the house, it just implies that I have a legal right to use the house. So 40 people can call a house their own house as long as they're legal occupants of the house. That's the lexical ambiguity I'm talking about. Jesus never condemned polygamy, most of those in the bible who seemed to condemn it were the overzealous converts who were not even with jesus and tended to apply their personal beliefs in most of their teachings. Some of the greatest icons in the Bible were polygamists, such as Abraham, Solomon, David etc And they're all already in heaven while you are here talking about unimportant things like polygamy instead of focusing on the actual teachings of christ like repentance, forgiveness, love etc 203 Likes 23 Shares |

thesicilian: Okay, maybe you should read Ephesians 5:31 for more understanding and clarification Yes the Old Testament allows polygamy but doesn’t encourage it, the new testament on the other hand emphasized more on one man -one wife 21 Likes 1 Share |

God1000:It's the same story bro. The Bible does not condemn polygamy. Polygamy is the teaching of man. If it was that important, Jesus would have taught about it. A lot of the disciples taught what they thought was right, not what Jesus taught them. At a point (Acts 10) God had to personally come down from heaven and correct Peter about the issue of unclean meat and refusing to preach to the gentiles. What makes polygamy a sin? That a man pays the bride price of 2 or 3 women according to tradition, before taking her home with the consent of her parents, why should there be any law against that? Is that not what we were practising before the white man came? Are you saying all our ancestors who practised polygamy will go to hell? But that David, Abraham, Jacob etc will all be in heaven? What kind of logic is that? If you're going to convince me that polygamy is a sin, you'll have to show me where it was expressly condemned. 144 Likes 16 Shares |

The Bible is so volatile and contradictory that most people literally cherry pick whatever they want from it, it support everything you want Imagine the constitution of a country been this inconsistent, volatile and contradictory; the country will always be in chaos As terrible as the bible is the Qur'an is even way worse off Imagine a book that allows people cherry pick to the extent that they can blow themselves up (if they can do that to themselves imagine what they can do to you and your families) kidnap kids in school (like in chibok) and so many others unspeakable atrocities Same quran and some Muslims are just very great people, down to earth, pose no security threat and generally good people Same book but different cherry picking, nothing else could define volatile 53 Likes 7 Shares |

God1000: Don't waste your time explaining to people who already know what they want to do and are just looking for a way to justify it. Anyone that wants to marry 100 wives should please go ahead, it won't change the fact that the Bible is clear on it being One man, one wife. 24 Likes 3 Shares |

Hmm. This man absolutely deceives his congregation with his very clear lack of Biblical knowledge. Prophet Isaiah was married to one wife with children, Isaiah 8:3. Prophet Jeremiah was strictly forbidden to get married. Prophet Elijah has no such record of his marriage to any woman. Ezekiel was married, but no information about how many wives. This confusionist must be referring to Moses and Abraham only. He tried to justify his father's marriage to several woman. Who knows how many women this man married himself? 10 Likes |
