That is because those who read it are largely ignorant.

They are also self-serving. Otherwise they would always consider everything in the Bible in its appropriate context

thesicilian:

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 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

God1000:
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

E get wan certain prophet wey marry a 5 year old pikin con knack her wen she dey 9 year old as if dat wan no do am hin con marry d wife of hin adopted son come tell hin followers say hin GOD revoked d adoption naim mek hin marry d woman

princefunm:
The Law that God gave the Israelites stipulated that Kings must have only one wife.

Even though God permitted polygamy, it was never his will. When he made a wife for Adam he made only one.

As a Christian though, the standard is one man one wife.

The Bible clearly stipulates this as a requirement for those who are overseers or leaders.

If the leader of a so-called Christian church is verifiably polygamous, then it simply means that he was unfit to lead.

Its very simple and clear.

It also makes him adulterous by bible standards.

Stop dodging question. Where in the Bible did Jesus asked you to Marry one wife and one husband? Drop fact and not what other prophet wrote in your bible. Those David, Abraham, Solomon that married many wives in your bible, did God condemned or punished them? You’re not to marry 2 wives but una get almost 5 to 6 girlfriends. Dey play. You lorn the hard way

And I thought it was Isaac who married Deborah at 3 years old

Or Joseph the old man of about 90 who married the mother of your god at 9 or 12.

Christianity stinks

You can't have common sense and be a Christian.
It's impossible.

You can not also not be a hypocrite and be a Christian.

Even in this your contradictory and stupid debate where different Christians are in confusion and have different opinions on a subject pertaining to your evil beliefs, you will still drag Islam into it.

APOSTLECHUMA:
GOD IS INFINITE AND DOESNT ACQUIRE NEW KNOWLEDGE, NEITHER DOES HE CHANGE HIS ORDER OF DOING THINGS. WHEN HE CREATED THE FIRST MAN, HE ONLY MADE ONE WIFE FOR HIM, NOT TWO. AFTER THE FALL IN EDEN HOWEVER, EVERY THING SHATTERED, WITH NOTHING REMAINING IN THE ORIGINAL ORDER IT WAS MADE, WITH MARRIAGE INCLUSIVE. POLYGAMY WAS PERMISSIVELY INTRODUCED JUST LIKE DIVORCE BUT NONE WAS GOD'S PERFECT WILL. WITH THE COMING OF CHRIST, EVERYTHING WAS RESTORED TO ITS ORIGINAL ORDER INCLUDING MARRIAGE AND EVEN DIVORCE, WHICH WAS INTRODUCED BY MOSES OUT OF THE HARDNESS OF THE PEOPLES HEARTS, WAS ABOLISHED. THE ONLY CONDITION PERMITTED BY CHRIST UNDER WHICH A MAN CAN PUT AWAY HIS WIFE, IS FOR FORNICATION, NOT ADULTERY. WHEN JESUS PREACHED THIS IN MATTHEW 19, THE JEWS REPLIED HIM THAT IF THAT WAS THE CASE, THAT THERE WAS NO NEED FOR A MAN TO MARRY. THE REASON WAS THAT THEY WERE NOT READY TO FORGIVE THEIR WIVES BECAUSE WHAT CHRIST TAUGHT THEM, MEANT THAT FOR ADULTERY, THEY HAD NO BIBLE RIGHT TO DIVORCE THEIR WIVES AND THAT IS TRUE UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD. A MAN CAN ONLY DIVORCE BASED ON FORNICATION AND WHAT IT MEANS IS THAT IF A WOMAN HAD LIVED A NASTY LIFE BEFORE MARRIAGE AND LATER GOT MARRIED BY DECEIVING HER HUS THAT SHE WAS STILL A VIRGIN, THAT THE MAN SHOULD PUT HER AWAY BECAUSE THE MARRIAGE WAS BASED ON FALSEHOOD. OUTSIDE THIS, FOR ADULTERY, A MAN IS EXPECTED TO FORGIVE HIS WIFE, JUST THE WAY GOD FORGIVES US OUR MANY SINS DAILY. THIS WAS WHY CHRIST PREACHED FORGIVENESS 70 BY 70 A DAY BEFORE PREACHING ON MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE. THIS IS ONE OF THE HARDEST TEACHINGS IN THE BIBLE AND NOT ALL WILL ACCEPT IT. IF ONE DIVORCES HIS WIFE FOR ADULTERY, HE HAS NO BIBLE RIGHT TO REMARRY, HE CAN ONLY STAY SINGLE OR GET RECONCILED WITH HER.

Polygamy is bad but homosexuality is ok according to the White slave masters who wrote the Bible.

thesicilian:

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.

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.
after you applied and failed yakata to become tinubu's wife,you now came here and opened bad thread against baba bulaba 😁😁😁
